How Jesus Changed the World | Ep 90

How did Jesus change the world?In this episode, Brian Fisher concludes the Kingdom Dwellers mini-series by exploring one final hidden quality of deep disciples: they learn to recognize and transform the ideas that shape people, churches, and cultures. Jesus did not merely teach better behavior. He challenged the unspoken assumptions beneath behavior—the ideas in the air of His culture and the ideas in the soil of individual hearts.Drawing from the Soil & Roots framework of Ideas in the Air and Ideas in the Soil, Brian explores how Jesus confronted cultural assumptions about value, identity, power, gender, dignity, and human worth. His treatment of women in the first century is one powerful example. In a culture where women were often treated as inferior or disposable, Jesus honored, welcomed, taught, healed, and entrusted them.The episode also examines the Samaritan woman at the well as an example of Jesus transforming hidden ideas in a person’s heart. Her assumptions about identity and value were reshaped through His words, attention, honor, and invitation. Ultimately, this episode asks how deep disciples might become more like Jesus by learning to notice dark ideas in culture and in human hearts, then participating in transforming them into ideas of light.Join us online! Web: ⁠⁠soilandroots.org⁠⁠ Substack: ⁠ https://soilandroots.substack.com/
