LUX | The Podcast

Every great story has a final page. In this closing episode, Margo and Steven look back on three years of The LUX Podcast — what we built, what we learned, and what we'll carry with us. It's not goodbye forever. It's just goodbye for now.

Margo and Steven are back to finish off the third season!

Margo and Steven discuss All Souls.

Margo and Steven discuss another parible.

Margo and Steven dive into another one of Jesus’ parables — this time featuring a stubborn widow, a lazy judge, and a divine reminder about not giving up (even when heaven seems on “do not disturb”). They break down what Jesus really meant about praying always and not losing faith before he comes back — because apparently persistence pays off, even with God. Tune in for laughs, lightbulb moments, and maybe a little holy side-eye at that judge.

Margo and Steven discuss this week's Gospel!

Margo and Steve are back, and this time they’re talking mustard seeds—not the condiment, the faith kind. Jesus says if you’ve got faith the size of one teeny-tiny seed, you could tell a mulberry tree to take a swim, and it would actually listen. (Spoiler: our houseplants don’t even listen.) We’ll also unpack why Jesus brings servants, aprons, and dinner duty into the mix. Join us for laughs, “wait, what?” moments, and a reminder that even the smallest faith can do some pretty wild things

Margo and Steven dives into the true meaning of this parable shared by Jesus.

Margo and Steven discuss this week's confusing Gospel.

Margo and Steven discuss this feast about a feast.

Margo and Steven dive into what Jesus really meant when he said your loved ones might hate you for following him. Spoiler: it’s not about drama-free holidays. Plus, how carrying your cross is like signing up for a lifelong DIY project—without all the instructions.

Margo & Steven tackle the 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, where Jesus throws down a parable that basically asks: are we worshipping God… or just our rulebook? They unpack the holy mess of when religion gets in the way of faith, debate which “traditions” actually matter, and laugh about the times they’ve accidentally made church about coffee hour instead of the Creator.

Margo and Steven take on the big question: what does it actually mean to be “saved”? (Spoiler: it’s not like saving 15% on car insurance.) Based on the Gospel for the 21st Sunday of Ordinary Time, they wonder if getting into heaven is more like snagging a table at a fully booked restaurant, squeezing through a narrow doorway, or just knowing the right guy at the door. Tune in as they mix theology with laughs, side-eye each other’s analogies, and remind us that salvation is a lot less about passwords and a lot more about presence.

Margo & Steve stroll along with Jesus as he drops a curveball—talking about peace… and then announcing he’s here to stir up a little division. It’s a walk-and-talk with a plot twist.

Margo and Steve pick up where Jesus left off (no pressure) and dive into what He really meant when He said, “Be prepared.” Are we talking doomsday bunker or just remembering your reusable grocery bags? Tune in as we unpack the who, what, when, and why behind Jesus’ call to readiness—and try to figure out if spiritual preparedness requires a checklist… or just a little less scrolling.

Margo & Steven take on the age-old question: Can you actually have too much of a good thing? (Spoiler: yes, especially if it’s scented candles or WiFi-enabled toasters.) As they navigate the chaos of modern excess, Jesus casually drops a parable like it’s ancient mic drop season. Tune in for laughs, hard truths, and one savior who really knows how to tell a story with a twist.

Margo & Steven dive into this three part Gospel.

16th Sunday of Ordinary Time

Margo & Steve explore a side of this story you won’t hear in church—while Jesus relaxes as his friends size things up.

Margo and Steven dive into the tales of two guys who basically said, “Sure, we’ll help change the world,” and somehow pulled it off. Meanwhile, Jesus dishes out a fresh nickname—because apparently “Simon” was just too basic. Tune in as we unpack how these ordinary men got swept up in an extraordinary mission…and probably wished they’d picked an easier hobby.
