This week is the Palm Sunday Edition of the LectioCast: the Triumphal Entry versus the Annunciation. Christian tries to convince Amy and Tripp that they should preach on the Annunciation texts, and not the triumphal entry, by showing how they’re connected. In Isaiah 7:10-14, Christian tells us...

The Sacrifice of Faith and Summer Preaching #LectioCast
The lectionary this week is daring you to dodge Genesis 22. I talk about the other texts, but how do you pass on Genesis 22! In this episode I mention… Kierkegaard’s Fear and Trembling Derrida’s The Gift of Death Gerhard von Rad’s Genesis, Revised Edition: A Commentary James Kugel’s The Bible As…

There will be conflict! #LectioCast
This week on the lectiocast I took some advice from twitter, which is tantamount to a genius, and attempted to sing the introduction to the episode. If the Good Dr. Daniel Kirk returns early to the podcast you will know why… he wants to sing. The texts for the week include Jesus getting hardcore...

Hospitality, Suffering, and the Impossible Possibility of God
Just because you might be rocking a green stole doesn’t mean you have to dial back the sermonic nerdiness. After all this week you get one of the most important texts in the entire Bible – Genesis 18:1-15. On top of Abraham’s transformation of hostility to hospitality with the three strangers you...
-
Pentecost: The Spirit Has a Surprise for You #LectioCast
The Spirit enables Jesus’s followers to speak to all the devout Jews, reconfiguring our understanding of “devout,” forcing us to reimagine who it is that belongs to the inner circle of the people of God. Acts 2:1-21 The Spirit of God comes as an image of eschatological judgment and of...
-
Jesus is Glorified, And So Are We #LectioCast
After Jesus got that resurrection body, God wasn’t done. The resurrected Jesus is exalted, enthroned, and glorified. Because Jesus receives God’s glory, we get to as well. Acts 1:6-14 God might not be restoring the kingdom to Israel, but God is restoring the kingship of the earth to humanity. The...
-
Jesus is Raised: So Walk in Loving Fear #LectioCast
Jesus has been raised. I think this means we don’t have to worry about crazy passages from 1 Peter. Acts 17:22-31 Paul unravels the narrative of polytheism, claiming for one God a unique place of sovereignty and honor. And then he pulls in a Jesus juke at the end to call for repentance.…
more -
The Stone Lives #LectioCast
Jesus. This week is all about Jesus. Jesus reconfiguring the identity of the people of God. Jesus receiving God’s vindication in the face of humanity’s rejection of him. Jesus holding the identity that we get to share in: living stones, the one in whom the father is at work so that the father…

The Shepherd Wants Your Money #LectioCast
The resurrected Jesus is the shepherd of the sheep. And the community of the Good Shepherd is one where people radically reconfigure how they spend their money. Are we ready for that kind of discipleship? Are we ready to form those kinds of communities? Acts 2:42-47 The message we most need to...
-
God’s Great Yes to Humanity’s Feeble No—Easter 3 #LectioCast
The crucifixion is humanity’s attempt to say No to God’s anointed Lord and Christ. The resurrection is God’s mighty Yes to Jesus, and God’s continuing Yes to humanity as well. Acts 2:14a, 36-41 God continues to say YES in the face of humanity’s feeble NO. God says YES to Jesus, and God continues…

The Spirit that Animated Jesus Returns to Us—with Jay Emerson Johnson #LectioCast
Acts 2:14a, 22-32 “A Man Attested by God”: Here it is! My book is right! *ahem* Also, Easter is an event of the Spirit. This connects us to Jesus, who also had a Spirit-filled ministry. The story of the church is the continuing story of Jesus. Psalm 16 Quoted by Peter, as fulfilled in Jesus.……

A Man Attested by God with Daniel Kirk
This episode is a crossover episode with the Good Doctor Daniel Kirk (of the LectioCast fame). How high was the early church’s Christology? Daniel is on this podcast to talk about his new book A Man Attested by God, and answers this very question. This book is a bit oppositional. The Good Doctor…

Resurrection of the Lord, with Jay Emerson Johnson #LectioCast
He is risen indeed! Acts 10:34-43 The radical social practice of table fellowship: showing us how broad is God’s desire for communion with people. The gospel erases the boundary lines we otherwise see as normal and even critical for our survival. Psalm 118:1-2, 14-24 God is greater than empire…

Lent Week 6: Liturgy of the Passion #LectioCast
It’s time to follow Jesus to the cross: where God is absent, and the mission seems to fail. Except for those words from the centurion that turn the world upside down. Isaiah 50:4-9a The teacher is called to sustain the weary, even as he suffers the indignities of rejection. But shame is not the...
-
Lent Week 5: Easter Rising #LectioCast
The darkness of death, and of Lent, cannot keep the resurrection light of Easter from shining. And when resurrection light shines, you know you’re seeing the glory of God. Ezekiel 37 The Great Zombiepocalypse is one of the most arresting scenes in the whole Bible. A beautiful mixture of...

Lent Week 4: By Your Light We Become Light #LectioCast
The scripture passages this week bring us into a world of light: of light that shines so that we can see. Or, perhaps, shows us how we have been seeing people without perceiving them rightly in more ways than we are comfortable admitting. Seeing the light and becoming the light means allowing…

Lent Week 3: Is the Lord Present to Provide? #LectioCast
In times of hunger and thirst, do we trust God to be present? Do we trust God to provide? Do we believe that this is the path to eternal life rather than a roadblock keeping us from it? Genesis 17:1-7 The people grumble and test and complain. But only because they were worried about dying… Read...
-
Lent Week 2: Utter Dependence #LectioCast
From Abram to Jesus to the inclusion of the Gentiles we are called into a story of utter dependence on God: trusting God to do for us what we would otherwise try to do for ourselves. Genesis 12:1-4a Abram has to leave behind everything that should provide for him. God promises a blessing that is…...
-
Lent Week 1: Fasting as Trust in God #LectioCast
Lent begins. And we are invited into the ancient practice of fasting. Fasting does not mean adding a new practice, but shedding a practice for the purpose of deepening our trust in God. The stories of Jesus and of Adam and Eve invite us to consider what sorts of props we have erected to hold……

Transfiguration Sunday: Up and Down the Mountain with Jeffrey Pugh #LectioCast
God breaks into the present: with a glory that humans embody. The Lectionary sets us up with a series of interlocking texts that richly inform one another. Exodus 24:12 Moses goes up a mountain, as do Elijah and Jesus after him. God meets Moses in the cloud, and tabernacle and glory ensue. Psalm…

What Neighbor Love Looks Like with Rev. Dr. Wil Gafney #LectioCast
It’s a great week to get fired! So preach Leviticus 19 and tell people what it actually says. Leviticus 19:1-2, 9-18 We all know the command, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” But what does that love look like? And how might that love manifest itself in subversion of the expectations of market...
-
To Law or Not To Law, that is the Question #LectioCast
How does a Christian walk in the ways of God, loving God with heart, soul, mind, and strength? Do we do this by obeying the Law? Or by following Jesus? Or both? Deuteronomy 30:15-20 How is the Abrahamic covenant realized? How is the land possessed and the seed multiplied? Faithfulness to the...
-
People of the Light #LectioCast
We are the light of the world. And the very things we do in service to God can be the darkness that obscures the light just as easily as the light that dispels the gloom. Isaiah 58:1-12 Don’t be hoodwinked by acts of piety that don’t bring life to your neighbor. Psalm 112:1-9 Celebrating people…...
-
The God of the Upside Down Kingdom #LectioCast
If you want to know what people expect of God, listen to what they think blessing looks like. Epiphany continues to challenge us to look for and recognize God in the places we spurn and despise—even though these are usually our own places. Matthew 5:1-12 Do we really aspire to the Kingdom…

“The Second Grade Problem,” with Doug Pagitt #LectioCast
Doug Pagitt breaks it down: the problem is Second Grade. Just wait. Isaiah 9:1-4 Overcoming gloom: a beautiful picture of hope. But the reality is… Second Grade. Am I right? Psalm 27:1, 4-9 There’s a rhythm of salvation and distress. And maybe a bit of uncertainty about whether that rhythm will...
-
1st Sunday After Epiphany with Doug Pagitt #LectioCast
Will we be able to recognize God when God appears? We tend to look “up,” but perhaps we need to look down. Isaiah 49:1-7 The work of the servant is playing out in plain sight: but God’s people aren’t seeing it, and God doesn’t seem to be honoring it. Will we know the work of… Read more about 1st...
-
The Baptism of Our Lord: A Man Anointed by God #LectioCast
The baptism of Jesus is one of the most perplexing, challenging passages in the Gospels. We can shine a little light on it, but only if we’re willing to distinguish Jesus from God, recognizing God as the empowering agent who also marks with the Spirit as God’s beloved children. Isaiah 42:1-9 The...

God’s Blessing as Solidarity with Us, with Danielle Shroyer #LectioCast
Happy New Year! God is with us in a solidarity more profound than most of us ever dare to imagine. Isaiah 63:7-9 Getting wrapped up in the fulness of God’s blessing: unmediated, direct blessing. God shows up in God’s love. With an awesome digression on the Abraham story. Psalm 148 A picture of…

Christmas Proper 3: Christmas Conclusion, with Danielle Shroyer
For God to be savior, God has to be at work. Together we delve into the work that God must do if God is to be honored and celebrated as savior. And we get wrapped up in the saving work, not only as objects, but as active participants. Isaiah 52:7-10 What kind of good news… Read more about…

Christmas Proper 2: Christmas Continues, with Danielle Shroyer
An annual reminder that God has chosen to be in relationship with us before we could do anything in response. In the person of Jesus we are given the incarnate presence of God’s deepest blessing with us. And to that blessing we said no. And yet God continues to call us into the relationship God…...
-
Christmas Proper 1: Christmas For All From Below, with Danielle Shroyer #LectioCast
Isaiah 9:2-7 The birth of Jesus echoes the birth of an earlier king, a previous “mighty God, everlasting father.” Let that mess with your Christology! Psalm 96 God’s plan of salvation is SO MUCH BIGGER than human salvation. The whole creation is wrapped up in God’s saving work. Do we live in such…

#LectioCast Advent 4: Waiting for a Surprise with Mihee Kim-Kort
Are we sure we know what we’re waiting for? God is faithful, and God is full of surprises. Isaiah 7:10-16 Your favorite Jesus prophecy that originally had nothing to do with Jesus! So, what does this mean about who Jesus is and what salvation means Matthew 1:18-25 An invitation to imagine what...

Special Bonus Episode: Cynthia Rigsby, Monica A. Coleman, and Scott MacDougall
In this special episode I get to ask three world-class theologians five questions about preaching and teaching the Bible. Here they are. And they are four in number: 1. Can we say Jesus is Lord in a post-patriarchal context? 2. How do you know when to stay with a church or denomination? How do…

Advent 3: In Need of Reversal with Mihee Kim-Kort #LectioCast
What time is it? Where are we in the unfolding narrative of God’s story of promise and deliverance? Isaiah and Jesus each show us what the time of arrival looks like.

Advent 2: Waiting for the Messiah with Jason Micheli #LectioCast
Our calling is to live out the Advent story. We are supposed to be the people who put on full display for the world the acceptance with which God has embraced us. We are the people of Abraham’s children raised from stone, we are the people in whom the lion and lamb lie down together,… Read more...

Advent: Waiting for the Messiah with Jason Micheli #LectioCast
The waiting game begins again. But we’re not waiting for the Messiah to be born. We’re waiting for him to reappear. We’re looking and longing for the new creation that was promised with the reign of God’s faithful servant. And so we watch for an hour whose coming we cannot anticipate. And so we...

Take Heart: Christ is King #LectioCast
Christ is king. That’s the week on the liturgical calendar, it’s the promise of God. And it’s our hope in a time when we have figured out that our earthly shepherds are not going to fulfill God’s visions of justice and righteousness. Jeremiah 23:1-6 God will shepherd God’s people. God will raise…

A Glorious New Creation! After Things Get Really, Really Bad #LectioCast
The promise of new creation bursts through with images of wholeness, shalom, restoration, and God’s relentless passion for God’s beloved people. And when a bystander tries to get Jesus to say that the time has finally come for it, Jesus says, “Actually, it’s about to get a whole lot worse.”…

Living in Hope (on the Brink of an Election) #LectioCast
In a world in which “you can’t always get what you want,” whether it’s justice, abundance, equality, or a decent political candidate, how do we continue to place our hope in God? Why should we place our hope in God? Haggai 1:15b-2:9 In the midst of grave disappointment God says, “Don’t give up on...
