A sermon for Ordinary Time from rector Jon Odom, reflecting on Matthew 9:35-38.
Matthew and Ted's conversation with Dr. Ed Stetzer explores the meaning and history of missio Dei (the idea that mission originates from God, not the church). He traces how missions thinking has shifted over the past century, from “the Church has missions” to “God's mission has the Church,” and highlights both the biblical strength and the theological risks of that shift. While affirming that God is actively at work in the world and invites His people to join Him, the discussion emphasizes that mission must remain grounded in Scripture, with the church playing a central role in proclaiming the gospel.The episode also addresses a growing tension in evangelical missions today: the pull between a broad, holistic view of mission and the need to prioritize evangelism and reaching unreached people groups. Stetzer warns that when everything is labeled “mission,” the urgency of gospel proclamation can fade. The conversation calls for a balanced approach-one that embraces both gospel demonstration and proclamation, while ensuring that the church does not lose focus on its core calling to make disciples among the nations. The Mission Matters Podcast is a place to talk about the importance of our Mission as Christians. The Mission Matters is a partnership of Missio Nexus and Sixteen:Fifteen, who have a shared passion to mobilize God's people to be a part of His mission.
“The movie is a prayer,” says Bryan Zahnd, about Terrence Mallick's 2011 The Tree of Life, his favorite movie of all time. Bryan has seen it forty times (I have seen it three times); Bryan has taken his pastoral team from his Missouri Church to see it; he has shown it to his Congregation in Church. The film follows a family in Texas in the 1950s. Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain are the parents; they have three sons. Sean Penn plays the oldest boy when he is grown in the 1980s. It's a sermon on theodicy, creation, eschatology, all of it, all of it. And it's just very beautiful and interesting. If you've not seen it, go see it first, and then come back and talk it over with us! Pastor Byran's website.

Tim's Book - Confessing Jesus' Mission is finally out! Find it here:http://amazon.com/Confessing-Jesus-Mission-Pastors-Prayer-ebook/dp/B0FZW7MSTVThis is a very special episode of LEAD Time.On launch day of Confessing Jesus' Mission, Tim Ahlman joins the podcast for a different kind of conversation—not to defend a book, but to ask a deeper question facing the church today:Have we lost a shared sense of why the church exists?In this episode, Joe Beran interviews Tim about the growing fragmentation within the LCMS, the false binary between confession and mission, and why fear has quietly replaced courage in many of our conversations. Together, they explore how tribalism has shaped church discourse, why the Missio Dei must once again drive our priorities, and how the church can move from playing defense to faithfully going on offense for the sake of the lost.The conversation also touches on pastoral formation, leadership development, and why strategic thinking does not undermine Lutheran identity—but can actually serve it when rooted in Christ, the Means of Grace, and love for neighbor.This episode is not a manifesto. It's an invitation:- To leaders who care deeply about the future of the church- To pastors and lay leaders willing to have honest, collegial conversations- To anyone longing for unity without compromise and mission without fearTim also shares who the book is for, who it's not for, and how it's meant to be read—not in isolation, but in community, as a catalyst for deeper conversation and renewed clarity around the mission God has already given His church.If you've felt the tension between faithfulness and fruitfulness, confession and mission, or tradition and innovation, this episode is for you.Support the showJoin the Lead Time Newsletter!

What does God's blessing look like in real life? In Genesis 12, we see God's promise to bless all nations through Abram. Listen in as we explore how Jesus fulfills this promise and unpack what it means for us today.
Sermon Title: A Blessing to All NationsBig Idea: God promises to bless the nations.Genesis 12:1-3
Missio Dei - Part 3A Blessing to All Nations | Genesis 12:1-4aBig Idea: God creates at people to bless the world.1. Initiated by God's call (12:1a)2. Believed by God's servants (12:1-4a)3. Built on God's promises (12:1-2)4. Fulfilled by God's Son (Luke 1:68, 72-73)
We continue our Missio Dei sermon series.
How do we respond to God when he calls us to his mission? We might believe that we have to have a significant résumé or education to be useful to God's purposes. Or we might feel that we have no part in his mission to be worshipped as the only God among all the nations. However, the story of God's call on Abraham challenges us differently. Like Abraham we have to consider how we respond to God's call. This message from Genesis 12:1–3 helps us see God's supply to us in his mission.

What does it mean to be made in God's image? God created humans with a purpose from the very beginning. Genesis 1 explores how God designed humanity to reflect His image and spread His glory. Tune in as we uncover how God's design shapes who we are and how we live today.

To start off the New Year and the week of Prayer, Fasting, and Consecration, Dan Kammerzelt shares a message on John 3:16 and God's Love for the world and the Missio Dei
Before the Scientific Revolution, Western medicine was thought in terms of humors: cheerful people were sanguine and had a lot of blood, fiery cholerics had an excess of yellow bile, gloomy Melancholics had black bile, and mellow phlegmatics had phlegm of course. And the balancing of humors—hot and cold, wet and dry—was the key to a healthy life. It sounds medieval, it is, rooted in ancient Greeks, but we Catholics like medieval things, and some of us—especially Juan Domínguez, author: Knight, Monk, King, Prophet: A Christian Man's Guide to the Four Temperaments—has found wisdom in this way of thinking. And it's a way of thinking that we hear in some more conservative, or traditional, Catholic circles, so it's something I've been wondering about for some time. I've also been interesting in archetypes for since I first read Joseph Campbell and The Hero of a Thousand Faces many years ago. We also talk a bit about how one's role changes over time and also whether these models are applicable to women as well as men. I really enjoyed the conversation; I think you will too.
