We're Back. Sad News!

After a long hiatus, Zach and Brian reconnect to reflect on where they’ve been, what’s going on, and how they’re navigating life lately. In this episode, they talk about dealing with sad news—from personal losses to the daily weight of the world—and share an honest conversation about how to stay emotionally and spiritually grounded. They reflect on the life and work of Walter Brueggemann, explore the tension between awareness and overload, and share small but meaningful practices that help them care for their hearts and minds.Topics Covered & Timestamps:[00:00] – Welcome back & life updates[06:29] – The problem with hot takes in our culture[11:37] – Remembering Walter Brueggemann and what he taught us[21:29] – How sad news impacts us personally and spiritually[29:46] – Coping strategies: limits, boundaries, and breathing room[36:52] – The role of self-care in times of grief[48:31] – Encouragement for staying grounded and hopefulResources Mentioned:​Sabbath as Resistance by Walter Brueggemann​The Prophetic Imagination by Walter BrueggemannSupport the Podcast:If you found this episode meaningful, leave a review, share it with a friend, or support the work at eremosnashville.com/donate.
