John 3:16 has been codified and commodified as part of Christian culture in the US - so what do we do with it? We look at the oft-skipped John 3:14, which harkens back to a wild story about snakes in the wilderness. Come to church with us!

Judges Chapter 4 tells the story of two women who tear down a tyrant - one, Deborah, a prophet and judge and military leader; the other, Yael, armed only with the tools of her husband's trade. In this special episode, lizzie talks with the woman who taught her to tear down patriarchy - her mom, the Rev. Hannah Pinckney McManus, who has preached through the lectionary SIX times. Vice President-elect Kamala Harris has, through a coalition and millions of votes, broken a glass ceiling - so these women reflect on what it took for them to break their own glass ceilings and what in the Bible sets precedent and equips us to resist oppression. lizzie mentioned the Rev. Racquel Gill has a podcast with Rev. Dustin Pickett called The Sacred Spot - check them out here! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-sacred-spot-with-dustin-racquel/id1534459371

Golden calves seem an awful lot like Confederate statues when we converse with Exodus 32 in today's modern context.

Introducing: Pericopeeps! Special episodes where we interview guest pastors about this week's lectionary & their preaching process. Today we talk with the Rev. Aaron Hayworth about Matthew 21.

The Christ hymn in Philippians 2 calls for humility - but what does that actually mean? And in Matthew, we're still in parables of vineyards, but this time with some sons telling the truth and others not. We round it out with a chat about our favorite TV show, Call the Midwife!

Fathers Know Best is a new podcast from a clergy couple - lizzie and Jonathan - who exegete and interpret both this week's lectionary and pop culture. This episode: Matthew 18 and Genesis 50 and what to do, exactly, with forgiveness; and where we see this happening in Schitt's Creek!
