In this episode, Patrick and Jonah continue their exploration of Rudolf Steiner's lecture What the Angels Do in Our Astral Body. They trace how the human being becomes a meeting point between higher and lower worlds, and how the angels are quietly weaving three impulses into our inner life: a deepening compassion for others, a growing recognition of the divine image in every human being, and the transformation of thinking into a living, spiritual organ.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

In a brand new episode of The Grove Podcast, Shelley Giglio is joined by the brilliant and bold Jackie Hill Perry for a conversation about faith, formation, and the unexpected places God does His deepest work.Together, Shelley and Jackie unpack the wrestle with ambition, the gift of hidden seasons, and how God often meets us in our lack to show us that He alone is enough.They explore the importance of spiritual disciplines — not as rigid rules but as pathways to freedom, relationship, and fruitfulness. And they encourage us to believe that God really does use every part of our story to make us more like Jesus.Wherever you are — leading, waiting, hoping, or trying your best to believe — it's our prayer that this conversation will lift your eyes to His presence and His power at work in your life.The Grove is an extension of all God is doing at Passion City Church in Atlanta, Georgia.

In this episode, we address our foundational question for this mini-series: What does baptism have to do with church membership? Should baptism be a requirement for membership? Are baptism and church membership two distinct commitments, or are they linked in the life of the church? How should Christians think of the connection between the two? Join us as we explore how Christians can think biblically about the relationship between baptism and church membership, and what Providence will practice moving forward.ResourcesPodcast Episodes138 - Commitments of Church Members139 - Proclaim and Protect, Contribute, Sacraments089 - Infant Baptism (with Kyle McClellan)090 - Believer's Baptism (with Bobby Jamieson)WrittenCovenantal (presbyterian)Westminster Confession of Faith 28.1“Baptism is a sacrament of the New Testament, ordained by Jesus Christ, not only for the solemn admission of the party baptized into the visible church, but also to be unto him a sign and seal of the covenant of grace…”Book of Order (Presbyterian Church U.S.A.)G-1.0303 - Church Membership"A faithful member accepts Christ's call to be involved responsibly in the ministry of his Church...

Today we're trashing feminism some more, because it obviously deserves it. Feminism is not only unbiblical, it's extremely destructive for all of society. We'll talk about why Christian podcasters like Allie Beth Stuckey shouldn't defend their feminism while claiming to follow Christ, and why Christianity itself is a patriarchy, by God's design. It's time for biblical men to stop waiting for permission from feminists and take back the authority God gave them. We'll also discuss more of the Trump administration's mistakes, including this ridiculous new 50-year mortgage idea that proves how far from wisdom our leaders have fallen.

Our culture tells us that independence is everything — but what if true flourishing happens when we give some of it up?Joel and Tim explore how commitment to a local church is not just a spiritual act, but something deeply human. They unpack how technology, hyper-individualism, and cultural values can isolate us, while the church pulls us back into the kind of community God designed for our good.From the sociology of connection to the theology of commitment, this conversation challenges us to see that infringing on our individuality might actually be the healthiest thing for us — because we are made to be together.Timestamps 00:00 – Intro: Isolation vs. community 22:47 – Commitment vs. loneliness 35:40 – How community shapes identity 41:12 – Inviting others into connected community 59:09 – Tim's takeaway: Spend more time at churchDiscussed on this episodeFriedrich NietzscheCasey NeistatWhy We Need the Church Now More Than Ever, by Carmen Joy ImesNijay Gupta SubstackDominion, by Tom HollandGlow Kids: How Screen Addiction Is Hijacking Our Kids-and How to Break the Trance by Nicholas KardarasJonathan HaidtAfter BabelBronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory

After weeks immersed in Revelation's visions of dragons, beasts, and the woman clothed with the sun, Patrick and Jonah turn to another revelation—the angelic world. Drawing on Rudolf Steiner's The Work of the Angels in Man's Astral Body, they explore a living hierarchy of beings—angels, archangels, archai, and the Elohim—each shaping humanity's unfolding in its own way.This conversation moves from Genesis's image of God hovering over the waters to Steiner's picture of a cosmos alive with helpers. Rather than fighting evil, the task becomes learning to recognize guidance—to breathe in the breath of spirit and breathe out creative love.#LightInEveryThing #ChristianCommunity #RudolfSteiner #Angels #Anthroposophy #SpiritualScience #Podcast #FacingEvilSeriesSupport the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

We want to hear from you! Submit your Thanksgiving Prayer or a short note of thanks! Your submissions could be featured on Your Daily Prayer as we lead up to Thanksgiving Day. Thank you again for your continued support—we can’t wait to hear from you! https://tinyurl.com/322k4xau God never intended for us to do life alone. As our daily prayer and reflection remind us, from the beginning of creation, He designed us for community — with Him and with one another. Yet, for many believers, being part of a church family isn’t always easy. Differences in opinion, leadership conflicts, or even personal wounds can cause deep pain within the very place meant to nurture our faith. In this compassionate reflection, Laura Bailey reminds us that while church hurt is real and painful, Christian community is still God’s plan for His people. Just as Adam was not meant to be alone, neither are we. Throughout Scripture, we see how God uses relationships — even messy ones — to shape us, refine us, and reveal His grace. From the early church in Acts to the disciples who followed Jesus, believers have always grown stronger in community. Though it can be hard to stay when relationships feel strained, the call of Christ is not to walk away but to lean in — to forgive, to reconcile, and to remain united under His love. Today's Bible Reading:“The Lord God said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.’” – Genesis 2:18, NIV

What is the role of solitude in Christian history? Medievalist Hetta Howes comments on the allure of enclosure, how seeking solitude supports community, and what these ancient lives reveal about our modern search for connection.“Even those moments of solitude that she's carving for herself are surprisingly sociable.”This episode is part 1 of a 5-part series, SOLO, which explores the theological, moral, and psychological dimensions of loneliness, solitude, and being alone.Medieval Anchoresses and Women Mystics sought a life of solitude with and for God—what about their vocation might illuminate our perspectives on loneliness, isolation, and solitude today?In this episode, Hetta Howes joins Macie Bridge to explore the extraordinary lives of medieval women mystics, including Julian of Norwich and Marjorie Kempee. Drawing from her book Poet Mystic Widow Wife: The Extraordinary Lives of Medieval Women, Howes illuminates how these women lived in literal and spiritual solitude—sometimes sealed in stone anchorages, sometimes carving sacred space in the midst of family and community. Together they consider the physical and spiritual demands of enclosure, the sociable windows of anchorages, and the simultaneous human longing for both solitude and companionship. Across the centuries, these women invite us to think anew about loneliness, vocation, and the need for community—even in devotion to God.Helpful Links and ResourcesPoet Mystic Widow Wife: The Extraordinary Lives of Medieval Women – Hetta HowesJulian of Norwich, Revelations of Divine Love (Penguin Classics)The Book of Margery Kempe (Oxford World's Classics)Episode Highlights“An anchorage is a small cell, usually joined to a church… and the idea was that you would never leave that place alive again.”“Sometimes you do come across these things and you're like, oh, maybe the cultural consciousness was so different that they had a different language for loneliness.”“Marjorie frames herself as a figure who is constantly looking for connection—sometimes finding it, but often being rejected in really painful ways.”“Even those moments of solitude that she's carving for herself are surprisingly sociable.”“What I've learned from them is the importance of community—that even solitary professions absolutely rely on other people.”About Hetta HowesHetta Howes is a Lecturer in Medieval and Early Modern Literature at City St. George's, University of London. She specializes in the literature of the Middle Ages, with particular focus on medieval women writers, mysticism, and representations of gender and devotion. Her most recent book is Poet Mystic Widow Wife: The Extraordinary Lives of Medieval Women (2024).Show NotesSolitude and SanctityHowes introduces her research on medieval women mystics and writers (Julian of Norwich, Margery Kempe, Christine de Pizan, Marie de France).Exploration of the anchoritic life—cells built into church walls where women lived sealed from the world.The paradox of solitude: enclosure for God that still required connection for survival.The Anchorite's WorldAnchorages included small windows—to the church, the street, and for food—balancing isolation with limited engagement.Guidebooks warned women against gossip and temptation, revealing anxiety about sociability and holiness.“Why have a window to the world if you're not ever going to converse with it?”Loneliness and BoredomLoneliness rarely appears in medieval texts; boredom and idleness were greater concerns.“Boredom comes up as a concept much more often than loneliness.”Modern readers project our loneliness onto them; their silence might reveal difference, not absence.Julian and MarjorieJulian's quiet solitude contrasts with Marjorie's noisy, emotional piety.Marjorie Kempe's “roarings” and unconventional piety challenged norms; she lived in the world but sought holiness.“I wish you were enclosed in a house of stone”—a critique of her refusal to conform.Solitude and CommunityEven in seclusion, anchorites served others—praying, advising, maintaining windows to the world.Julian's writings reveal care for all Christians; her solitude was intercessory, not selfish.Howes connects medieval community to our modern digital and emotional isolation.Modern ReflectionsHowes parallels her own experience of digital overload and motherhood with the medieval longing for quiet focus.“As amazing as the digital can be, it's eroding so much.”She cautions against idolizing solitude but affirms its value for clarity and grounding.Production NotesThis podcast featured Hetta HowesInterview by Macie BridgeEdited and Produced by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Alexa Rollow, Emily Brookfield, and Hope ChunA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give

Joel and Tim explore what it means to live and raise children as elect exiles in a world with different values. They reflect on social media, culture, and the ways Christians can tell the alternate story of Jesus — distinctive, thoughtful, and rooted in grace.The discussion covers family and intergenerational ministry, schools, and creating spaces for children to engage meaningfully with the church. They highlight the importance of modelling commitment through consistent presence and participation.Over-commitment to church isn't the problem — intentionality, faithfulness, and living in deep community are. By prioritising time together, parents and churches equip the next generation to confidently live as elect exiles in Christ.

In this episode of Pray the Word on 1 Corinthians 12:26, David Platt calls us to rejoice and suffer with other Christians according to God's design.Explore more content from Radical.

Discernment alone isn't enough. The sword must find its counter-movement in worship. In this conversation, Patrick and Jonah explore Revelation 12's great battle—Michael's sword casting down the dragon, and the Lamb whose gentleness completes the victory. They linger on how clarity without reverence can harden into pride, and how only devotion to the Lamb protects the soul from the very forces it tries to understand.Through Vladimir Soloviev's Tale of the Antichrist and C.S. Lewis's That Hideous Strength, they trace the subtle temptation to know evil but never kneel before the Good. True discernment, they suggest, leads to communion: the sword prepares the way, but worship restores life.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Joel and Tim explore Soul Revival Church's 2025 Planning Day — and how the church can prepare for God to grow them, being ready if He chooses to do that.They begin by talking about writing, storytelling, and collective memory — how churches pass down faith through shared stories that shape who they are. Tim reflects on his recent work about how intergenerational communities strengthen faith by remembering together.The conversation then turns to independent media and creativity, drawing lessons from writers like Ryan Holiday and Jonathan Wilson. Joel and Tim reflect on how Christians can balance curiosity with focus — doing a few things well, recognising that God made people finite so they can't chase every idea.At the heart of the episode is Soul Revival's collaborative Planning Day, where the whole church community — not just leaders — comes together to reflect, celebrate, and plan for the year ahead. It's a unique approach that embodies their belief in the church as a family, where every generation contributes.Finally, they look forward to the 2025 Planning Day and the church's 2030 Double Up Vision, discussing what it means to grow deeply in discipleship and mission, not just in numbers. The episode closes with a reminder to keep telling the stories of God's faithfulness — because those stories shape who the church is and who it will become.

As billionaire Peter Thiel takes his Antichrist lecture tour around the world, Patrick and Jonah return to Scripture to ask what John actually meant by “Antichrist.” Drawing from Revelation, the letters of John, and Vladimir Soloviev's haunting story The Antichrist, they explore how this archetype appears whenever the self refuses to bow, refuses to be wounded, refuses to love through sacrifice.Against the world's fascination with power and control stands the Lamb—wounded yet overflowing with life.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Patrick and Jonah turn to Revelation 13 and the image of the beast from the sea—a being wounded unto death, yet healed. What kind of resurrection is that? Together they explore how domination, power, and self-preservation tempt the human self to “heal” without changing. In contrast, the Lamb bears a mortal wound that pours itself out for the life of the world.This episode asks: what does real transformation look like? How can a wound become the doorway to grace? And what does it mean to find protection, not in avoiding suffering, but in offering ourselves through it?Listen to the full conversation and find extended reflections at patreon.com/c/ccseminary.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Christian community is the antidote to self-deception.• orthodoxy as structure that resists delusion• self-justification versus truth-telling in love• humility in fraternal correction without judgment• gratitude and compassion when others fall• response to “just me and Jesus” objections• unity, sacraments, and commandments as lifelines• returning after failure and rising “from glory to glory”• church as hospital and mission to make earth heavenlyWhat if anger is less about others and more about the truths we're afraid to face? We dive into a candid, compassionate conversation about reality, responsibility, and why community is the antidote to self-deception. Alongside Deacon Anthony, our Cloud of Witnesses hosts Jeremy Jeremiah, Mario Andrew, and John, explore how Orthodoxy offers an objective frame that keeps us grounded, helping us see ourselves honestly while learning to correct others with humility and love.We challenge the reflex to justify our own faults and over-accuse others, reframing fraternal correction as an act of care: approach with facts, confess your weakness, ask to understand, and only move if love leads. That posture opens the door to genuine reconciliation and restores people to the life of the Church. We also take on the familiar “it's just me and Jesus” stance, unpacking why isolation breeds delusion and how unity, the sacraments, and the commandments are not legalism but the concrete path Christ gave for life in Him.The conversation turns deeply personal: what keeps us coming back after failure? We talk about the inexhaustible nature of grace—rising “from glory to glory”—and the tangible peace found in worship that we're meant to carry into the world. The Church is a hospital for the soul: we receive healing, then we're sent to make the earth more like heaven through daily acts of mercy, courage, and truth. If you've wrestled with anger, pride, or the temptation to go it alone, this story-driven exchange offers a clear, warm invitation to reality, humility, and unity.If this resonated, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a comment—your support helps others find the show and join the conversation.Questions about Orthodoxy?

Why the church is essential to spiritual growth and obedience 2. How God speaks to and through His church today 3. What it means to belong to a community shaped by love and purpose 4.

As the flood from the dragon's mouth pours across the world, Patrick and Jonah explore how the Book of Revelation describes the protection of those who remain faithful: the blood of the Lamb, the word of their testimony, and a love stronger than self-preservation. Together they reflect on what these mean for our time—the torrent of egotism, the culture of self, and the call to keep the heart open even amid the onslaught. Drawing on the imagery of Michaelmas and the woman's eagle's wings, they ask how moral courage, humility, and sacrificial love can help the human being stay buoyant when the flood rises.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

What is God ripening in humanity? In this episode, Patrick and Jonah return to the harvest image and turn to Revelation 12: the woman clothed with the sun, the great red dragon, and Michael's battle in heaven. They reflect on how the drama continues on earth with the woman's offspring—those who keep God's commandments and bear the testimony of Jesus—and what it means for each of us to live between the protection of heaven and the trials of the dragon's rage.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Nijay Gupta is back on Shifting Culture to share about his new book with A.J. Swoboda, Slow Theology. Together we talk about what it means to follow Jesus at a different pace - resisting the constant pressure to react, hurry, and perform, and instead cultivating practices that lead to depth and resilience. In this episode, we explore the role of lament, the necessity of community, and how theology is less about abstract answers and more about orienting our whole lives toward God. Nijay offers wisdom for living faithfully in a turbulent age and shows us how slowing down might be a core practice for our spiritual formation today.Nijay Gupta (DPhil, University of Durham) has written several academic books including Paul and the Language of Faith, and Tell Her Story: How Women Led, Taught, and Ministered in the Early Church.

What is God cultivating in humanity? Why does the field of the world hold both wheat and weeds, saints and beasts, until the end of time?In this episode, Patrick and Jonah explore the imagery of the harvest in Luke's Gospel and the Book of Revelation. They reflect on the dragon and the beasts who rise against the offspring of the woman, and on the Lamb who ultimately conquers through sacrificial love. Along the way they ask: What name do we bear?

Title: Living Room – FellowshipScripture Reading: Acts 2:42, Ephesians 5:30, John 13:35Series: The 242 BlueprintThis message is the second in the series "The 242 Blueprint," which examines Acts 2:42 as a foundational model for the church. This week's sermon focuses on the topic of fellowship, using the analogy of watching football in a living room to explore what it means to be part of the Christian community.The message outlines three biblical facets of fellowship:The Player: Recognizing that we are not isolated individuals but members of a team—the body of Christ. This requires a shift from individualization to incorporation.The Position: Every member has a unique function and spiritual gifts to use for the church. This calls for a shift from inaction to involvement.The Purpose: The purpose of the church's love for one another is to be so extraordinary that it shows the world who Jesus is. This requires a shift from insularity to invitation.
