In today's Advent reflection, we revisit the shepherds' fear and their courageous decision to explore what God was revealing to them. Many of us are just “18 inches” from Jesus, the distance between knowing about Him in our minds and believing in Him with our hearts. This episode invites you to quiet the noise, recognize God's voice, and take that final step through two powerful words: I believe.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

“I enjoy bringing joy for us all.” That's how Erika Monaé Lewis — founder of The EMG Network and creator of Networking on Purpose — explains the spark that's been in her since childhood. In this Detroit is Different conversation, Erika unpacks how growing up on the East Side near the old city airport, running the block with friends, and soaking in the wisdom of the neighborhood shaped her gift for connection. “I want to see you win. I want to see you grow,” she says, tracing her journey from DSA drama major and pomerette to HR leader refusing to “sign off on injustice,” to a coach teaching professionals how to turn relationships into results. Erika breaks down why networking isn't small talk — it's self-leadership, imagination, and joy rooted in legacy Black Detroit culture. From migration stories out of Olive Branch, Mississippi to the discipline it takes to step fully into entrepreneurship, Erika reminds us that “failure is never final,” and that authentic relationships are a form of wealth our grandparents modeled long before LinkedIn. This episode is a bridge — from the past practices that kept Black Detroit alive to the future strategies that will keep us connected, empowered, and winning together.

“‘I finally realized my purpose the moment my daughter was born',” Ken Chandler says as he opens up in a rare, vulnerable, and powerful first-ever public interview on Detroit is Different. In one sweeping, emotional journey, Ken traces his family's three-generation Detroit legacy—from his grandfather's East Side business empire to the hard truths of what happens when legacy isn't passed down. He speaks candidly about childhood trauma, gang culture, becoming a chameleon for survival, and the lifesaving mentorship that guided him out of the streets. But it's fatherhood—“my legacy, my purpose, my healing”—that becomes the heartbeat of this conversation. Ken breaks down the generational curse of absent fathers, the moment a panic attack in the hospital revealed his calling, and how his nonprofit aims to rebuild the community accountability Black families once relied on. This episode is an emotional bridge between Detroit's past and its future, showing how Black men reclaim legacy through love, presence, healing, and the reimagining of what fatherhood means. Overflowing with honesty and Detroit grit, Ken's story reminds us why legacy Black culture evolves not through wealth, but through intentional fatherhood and community roots.

As we continue the second week of Advent, we turn to a moment in the Christmas story that reminds us just how wide God's love reaches. The angel announces, “Fear not, for behold I bring you good news of great joy for all people,” and the first to hear it weren't kings or influencers, they were shepherds at the bottom of society's ladder. Today's episode invites you to “take a look” at the radical inclusivity of Christmas and remember that Jesus came for everyone, everywhere, including you. No matter your background, story, or status, the good news is for you and for someone in your life who needs to hear it.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Advent reminds us that long before we pursued God, He was already pursuing us. Today, we explore why surrender, the very choice Mary and Joseph made in their most overwhelming moments, is the antidote to fear. From bad timing and impossible circumstances to a wave analogy that hits close to home, this episode shows how moving toward what scares us, rather than running from it, opens our lives to God's peace and strength. Fruit grows in soil cultivated by surrender, and this season invites us to trust His timing, His presence, and His leading.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

It happens every year.  December shows up and the stress level rises.  For some reason the most wonderful time of the year also comes with all the other “stuff”.  But what if this year was the best ever?  What if this year is the one you will look back on years down the road and remember as the hallmark of Christmas seasons?  Well, it can be!  We are given some hints in Luke's account of the birth of Jesus that can make this year's holiday the one you will want to have every year from here on out.  Follow us for more weekly messages from Eastside pastors! 

In Week 2 of Christmas at Eastside, we explore the historical reality of Jesus' birth and what “Emmanuel, God with us” truly means.

Amid the recent sad news about one East Side institution, we're starting this episode on a much happier note from right up the street, as Von Trier continues its steady pace on the corner of Farwell and North avenues.As Ann pointed out in her Milwaukee Magazine tidbit, we didn't have much to worry about when the nearly 50-year-old establishment changed hands earlier this year — primarily because those hands belonged to the city's unofficial preserver of cocktail lounges, John Dye. The man has a demonstrated respect for history, and Von Trier's first few months under his watch reflect that approach.You can get Ann's full report (plus a healthy amount of sausage conversation) in the full podcast, which also sees us chatting about: The December 2025 cover story of Milwaukee Magazine, which reveals the area's 51 can't-miss food and drinks (according to Ann).

“Detroit would be a sad place if we weren't all different,” says Hot Sam's co-owner Tony Stovall, opening a conversation that moves like a masterclass in Black Detroit legacy, style, and spiritual grounding. In this Detroit is Different episode, Tony traces his journey from East St. Louis to the Eastside, from a 15-year-old getting his first suit to becoming co-owner of Detroit's oldest Black-owned clothing store, a century-strong institution that shaped generations of our city's fashion identity. “You have one opportunity to make your first impression,” he reminds us, weaving lessons on manhood, mentorship, and the power of loving our people out loud. Tony shares how he and Mr. Green built Hot Sam's through grit, customer devotion, and faith—“Nothing comes between me and my partner but me or him”—and how Detroit's flair impacts the world. This episode speaks to past and future: migration, Motown elegance, Black entrepreneurship, and why keeping the Black dollar circulating is a cultural responsibility. If you love Detroit, if you believe in legacy, if you believe that style is spiritual—this is required listening.

You're invited to pause and really behold what Christmas means. Isaiah 7:14 tells us that a virgin would conceive and give birth to a son called Immanuel, which means God with us. Today, we look at the birth of Jesus through the eyes of Joseph and Mary and the closed doors they faced in Bethlehem. Their story reminds us that God often arrives in the most unexpected places and invites us to open the door of our own hearts in return. Whether you are opening that door for the first time or opening it wider than before, this reflection will help you notice the God who knocks and who longs to be with you in every part of your life.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

“Detroiters are our assignment editors.” That line from Orlando Bailey sets the tone for a conversation that is both legacy-rooted and forward-looking, as he sits back in the Detroit is Different studio and walks us through his evolution from a kid in Youth on the Edge of Greatness to Executive Director of Outlier Media—one of Detroit's most trusted sources for civic truth. In this episode, Orlando reflects on growing up East Side under the watchful love of giants like Maggie DeSantis and Donna Givens Davidson, describing ECN as an organization that “walked right beside me my entire life.” He breaks down the weight of Black leadership today, especially in a media landscape where “the truth is incendiary to the chambers of power,” and shares how becoming an ED forced him to be “as open, as honest, and with as many eyes on my stuff as possible.” We talk collard green juice on the gym floor, judges who need robes, and why Detroit storytelling—done authentically—remains the strongest defense against erasure. With wisdom, humor, and Detroit cultural fluency, Orlando unpacks everything from the future of local journalism to the politics of public transit to the spiritual power of Black people telling the truth about themselves.
