This installment in a series in 1 Timothy of chapter 3. We go over Paul's instructions to Timothy regarding leaders in the church, and how we should apply these to the modern church today.

Jon discusses what it means to be citizens of God's kingdom here on earth and how what we believe should affect how we live our everyday life.

Jon discusses three outcomes of the resurrection of Jesus and the dual citizenry that ensues. Subversive equality, radical submission, and unjust suffering ... the resurrection of Christ may not be what you think.

Beginning a new series called "Dual Citizens" going through 1 Peter, Jon introduces the book with its background, context, and major themes to expose the concepts of Christians being dual citizens on earth and in heaven.

Here we explore the spiritual discipline of solitude.

Jon discusses Marty Solomon's new book, "Asking Better Questions of the Bible: a Guide for the Wounded, Wary, & Longing for More" along with a host of other questions surrounding the mystical Jesus, healthy deconstruction of dogma, and whether it gets run over by karma.
