In this episode, we sit down with Rev. Matt Rawle to talk about his upcoming book out in February, Isaiah for the People: Prophet of Protest, along with the 10th anniversary re-release of The Redemption of Scrooge.Our conversation explores the provocative and challenging message of Isaiah—especially what happens when faith communities move beyond simply including marginalized people and instead center their voices, experiences, and needs. We also discuss accessibility in the church, considering how physical spaces, social practices, and community expectations can either create barriers or embody a truly expansive welcome.Along the way, Matt invites us to wrestle with what it means to hear the prophets today, rethink who occupies the center of our communities, and imagine a church where belonging is more than an invitation—it shapes who we become.Connect with the Bearded Theologians at https://www.linktr.ee/BeardedtheologiansYou can find the Beardcast on Youtube, Stitcher, Apple, Spotify, Castbox, or wherever else you listen to Podcast.

“What really matters is what you like, not what you are like.” Join Ian & Liam for our 349th episode as we alphabetise the vinyl, rank our emotional catastrophes and head back to Championship Vinyl for Stephen Frears' High Fidelity (2000). Megs isn't with us this week — Rob asked her to rank her five worst break-ups and she decided she'd rather never speak to any of us again. Kev has disappeared into a record shop and refuses to come out until everyone agrees his Top Five Albums list is objectively correct. This week we discuss: John Cusack as Rob Gordon — charismatic, funny, self-aware... and still somehow completely incapable of recognising that he might be the problem. A coming-of-age story for a man in his 30s — has Rob reached adulthood without ever actually growing up, and is the film really about emotional adolescence arriving about fifteen years late? The strange A Christmas Carol connection — like Scrooge, Rob is forced to revisit his past, confront the stories he has told himself about his own unhappiness and realise that memory becomes much less comforting when other people get to challenge your version of events. Breaking the fourth wall and controlling the narrative — does Rob talking directly to us make him more honest, or simply allow him to curate his own story in the same way he curates his record collection? The Top Five obsession, music and taste as identity — are Rob's lists just a funny character trait, or a defence mechanism that allows him to substitute having good taste for actually having a personality? The ex-girlfriend tour and the women in Rob's life — funny, revealing and deeply unhealthy. Does revisiting these relationships actually help Rob understand himself, and how much are we still trapped inside his self-centred perspective? Barry, Dick and Jack Black before JACK BLACK — the supporting cast repeatedly threaten to walk away with the movie, while Jack Black seems to arrive already fully formed. The ending and Rob's emotional growth — does he genuinely mature, simply become more self-aware, or finally learn the fairly basic lesson that loving someone requires occasionally making the story about somebody other than yourself? And finally, whether High Fidelity is the Best Film Ever — or simply the perfect film for anyone who has ever mistaken having excellent taste for having an excellent personality.

How many times do we really have to forgive someone? This week, Peter Walsh and Rob Schwartz explore Matthew 18:21–35, where the apostle Peter tries to put a number on forgiveness and Jesus responds by blowing up the whole accounting system. But the conversation quickly gets harder: Is forgiveness the same thing as reconciliation? What happens when someone continues to hurt us? And what are we supposed to do with a parable about mercy that ends with torture?Questions for ReflectionThemes & ApplicationPeter distinguishes forgiveness from reconciliation: reconciliation involves restoring a relationship, while forgiveness can still be possible when reconciliation is unsafe or impossible. How does this distinction change the way we hear Jesus' command to forgive? How can we forgive while still naming harm and maintaining necessary boundaries? Peter and Rob wrestle with the parable's disturbing conclusion, where the unforgiving servant is handed over to be tortured. Is the king meant to be a straightforward representation of God? How should we interpret violent images of judgment in Matthew alongside Jesus' larger message of mercy, love, and liberation? Thomas G. Long describes some of Matthew's stories as “nightmare parables,” comparing their frightening imagery to A Christmas Carol. Scrooge sees the terrifying destination of his present way of living precisely so that he can wake up and choose another path. Could Jesus' frightening parable be intended to awaken us rather than simply threaten us? When can uncomfortable or frightening stories reveal something that gentler language cannot? Personal ReflectionRob tells the story of accidentally breaking a statue belonging to a friend's mother and expecting punishment, only to hear her say, “I forgive you.” When have you received grace or forgiveness that you did not think you deserved? Did that experience change the way you treated someone else later? The episode repeatedly returns to the image of keeping a ledger of what other people owe us. Whose name are you most tempted to keep in your own mental ledger? What would you fear losing if you stopped keeping track?Peter expands the conversation from forgiving others to forgiving ourselves. Are there mistakes, failures, or regrets for which you find it easier to believe God forgives you than to forgive yourself? What might it mean to receive grace deeply enough to stop continually punishing ourselves? Broader Spiritual ConsiderationsThe contrast between Lamech's seventy-sevenfold vengeance and Jesus' seventy-sevenfold forgiveness presents two radically different ways of organizing human relationships. What would families, churches, communities, or nations look like if forgiveness rather than retaliation were the thing that multiplied?The unforgiving servant receives freedom but then recreates the same system of debt and punishment for someone else. Why do people who have experienced oppression, hurt, or judgment sometimes reproduce those same patterns when they gain power? What allows grace to genuinely transform us rather than simply benefit us?Peter ends by describing forgiveness as being released from the “gunk of our psyche” that weighs us down, while also noting that the struggle to forgive is not uniquely Christian but deeply human. What might Christianity contribute to the broader human struggle with resentment, vengeance, guilt, and forgiveness?References & ResourcesVocabularySeventy-Seven / Seventy Times Seven — The translation  varies, but the exaggerated number communicates forgiveness beyond calculation. Lamech — A descendant of Cain who boasts in Genesis 4:23–24 that if Cain is avenged sevenfold, Lamech will be avenged seventy-sevenfold. Nightmare Parable — Thomas G. Long's term for frightening parabolic imagery that exposes the destructive destination of a way of life and shocks the listener toward another possibility.ScriptureGenesis 4:23–24 — Lamech's boast of seventy-sevenfold vengeance, discussed as a possible biblical backdrop and reversal for Jesus' teaching on forgiveness.Books & LiteratureThomas G. Long, Proclaiming the Parables — Peter's primary resource for interpreting Matthew's harsh judgment imagery. (Read the Book)Victor Hugo, Les Misérables — Rob draws on Jean Valjean, Bishop Myriel, and Javert to explore grace, justice, transformation, and the danger of living by a moral ledger. (Read the Book) (Watch the Movie Trailer)Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol — Used to illustrate the “nightmare parable”: Scrooge is confronted with the frightening destination of his present life so that he can awaken and choose differently. (Read the Book)Theology & DoctrinePurgatory — In Roman Catholic teaching, a state of purification after death for those who will ultimately enter heaven but still need to be cleansed of the effects of sin.Learn more about St. Mark's at https://www.stmarksnewcanaan.org

How does Ebenezer Scrooge react when he wakes up on Christmas morning in A Christmas Carol? Does he go right back to his old habits? No! He's a completely changed man, and the people who meet him can hardly believe it's the same Scrooge! Well, Pastor Jeff reminds you today that you're a bit of a Scrooge yourself. When you are reborn in Christ, you have a responsibility not to just go back to the way you lived before. You're called to live a new kind of life: one that is devoted to Christ!   

So, what is the hymn “Come Thou Fount” referring to with this obscure and unfamiliar phrase about raising an Ebenezer?  When you hear the word Ebenezer, you probably think of Scrooge from Dicken's Christmas Carol. Not too many people name their sons Ebenezer these days. But in Scripture we find this word in 1 Samuel 7:12:  Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, “Thus far has the Lord helped us.”  Literally the word Ebenezer means “Stone of Help.” Samuel set up—or raised—this stone as a memorial, a marker-stone, to commemorate the Israelite victory over the Philistines. This was not a stone to be worshiped; it was not to make a certain place holy, like a Mecca. But Samuel knew well that the Israelites were very prone to forget God's goodness and blessings. So, he raised this stone as an everlasting reminder of how God had helped them win this victory.  I'd like to talk about Ebenezer stones—or stones of remembrances—for our own lives, by looking at the life of Moses. There were some definite Ebenezer stones in his life—stones of remembrance, stones when God helped him. And these turning points in his life relate to ours as well. As we look at Moses' stones of remembrance, consider how your own life may have some similar ones.  The Stone of Salvation  You are no doubt familiar with the story of how Moses's life was saved as a baby by a very creative mother and sister. When Pharaoh's daughter saw baby Moses in the basket on the Nile, she took him into Pharaoh's home and raised him as one of her own. He was physically saved, so there would be a Stone of Salvation for Moses.  Do you have a Stone of Salvation? I'm talking about salvation from the penalty of your sins. Can you tell of a time when you were made aware of your sins, where you were convicted of your sinful condition, and you knew you could not save yourself?   If you have not yet set up your stone of salvation, here's all you have to do:   If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved (Romans 10:9-10).  The Stone of Shame  As Moses grew to manhood, he was educated as an Egyptian with all the privileges that came from being raised as Pharaoh's daughter. But he never forgot that he was one of God's chosen people, so he wanted to help his people. Pharaoh kept the Jewish people in bitter servitude, and they were sorely mistreated. One day when Moses saw an Egyptian beating one of his Hebrew brothers, he killed the Egyptian and hid his body in the sand. He thought he was doing the right thing to defend his countryman, but the next day, when he saw two Hebrews fighting each other and tried to stop them, they turned on him and said, Who made you ruler and judge over us? Are you thinking of killing me as you killed the Egyptian? (Exodus 2:14).  Well, this just blew Moses away. He thought his murderous act was a secret, but now he realized it wasn't, and when Pharaoh heard about it, he tried to kill Moses. So, Moses fled from Pharaoh and went to live in Midian, where he became a lowly, humble shepherd. For forty years Moses lived in exile in Midian.  Here Moses would need to raise a Stone of Shame.  Overnight Moses went from the prestigious position as Pharaoh's grandson to that of a fugitive. He had disgraced himself by killing a man, and now he had lost his honor and position, and he was reduced to being a shepherd in a foreign land—for 40 long years.  Have you ever had a Stone of Shame in your life? I have. My period of shame lasted for about ten years. Ten years when I decided I could run my life better than God, and I walked away from my commitment to him and did my own thing. I told myself a lie and believed it—and the lie was that life would be intolerable as a single woman. There could be no happiness or fulfillment if I didn't get married! Now, I know I'm not the only person in the world to ever think like that, but that's the truth!   So, my legitimate need for love and acceptance became an addiction, as I determined to do it my way instead of trusting God. During those ten years, doing my own thing led to a sinful lifestyle, one that was not pleasing to God and one of shame.   Maybe some of you are in that place now. You know something is not right in your life. You're living in disobedience to God's plan, and you know it. Or there is a big dark cloud hanging over you from your past, and you're stuck at the Stone of Shame. God wants to help you put this Stone of Shame behind you so you can move forward to the good things he has for you.  Stone of Assurance  Moses figured he had blown it so badly that God would never use him again. But he was wrong. After 40 years, as Moses was tending his father-in-law’s flock at Horeb, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush.   As God spoke to him from the burning bush, he commissioned Moses to rescue his people from the hand of the Egyptians. Moses is now a humbled man, and he insists he cannot do it. But God says to him, “I will be with you. I am who I am, and you will tell the Israelites that ‘I am has sent me to you.'” (Exodus 3:14). Moses feared they would not believe him, so God gave him some signs to assure him that as long as God was with him, he could do what God called him to do.  So, here Moses would raise a Stone of Assurance.  Do you need a Stone of Assurance today? You need to know that God isn't through with you yet, and he has a plan for you. Like Moses, you may need reassurance that he will be with you, but you have to give him control of your life.  What is keeping you from doing what God has planned for you to do? Is it fear? Is it that you have your own plan, and you just want God to bless your plan? Is it laziness? Is it lack of trust in God's ability to do through you what you cannot do yourself? Is it a relationship? Until you submit it to God, you cannot go forward to the good things God has for you, the good works he put you here to do.  Stone of Deliverance  After forty long years Moses was finally ready to do what God had called him to do. And now begins the battle between Moses and Pharaoh to let God's people go! You know how God took them across the Red Sea, escaping Pharaoh's last attempt to catch them and bring them back. They crossed on dry ground, and Pharaoh and his army were drowned as the waters came rushing back over them.  There Moses could raise a Stone of Deliverance.  Maybe you need to raise a stone of deliverance, a memorial to God's faithfulness in your life. A testimony of his goodness to you in spite of all you've done and all your failures. Has he been faithful to you? Then raise your Stone of Deliverance.  Stone of Commitment  Many years later as Moses was presenting to the children of Israel the tablets with the Ten Commandments, he said to them:  The Lord your God commands you this day to follow these decrees and laws; carefully observe them with all your heart and with all your soul. You have declared this day that the Lord is your God and that you will walk in obedience to him, that you will keep his decrees, commands and laws—that you will listen to him. And the Lord has declared this day that you are his people, his treasured possession as he promised, and that you are to keep all his commands. (Deuteronomy 26:16-18).  He challenged the people to set up a Stone of Commitment.  They were to declare before God and his servant Moses and before all the people that they were committed to obey the Lord, to walk in his ways, to keep his commands, to glorify their God all the days of their lives.  Today you may need to set up a Stone of Commitment, where you say to God, “I'm not playing around any longer. I am serious about walking with you, obeying you, living for you, spending time getting to know you.”   Yes, there are landmark times when we need to set some stones of remembrance: a Salvation Stone, a Stone of Shame, a Stone of Assurance, one of Deliverance, and a Stone of Commitment. What stones—what Ebenezers—do you need to raise even today? Could you reflect and let God's Spirit speak to you. This could be a good time for you to raise some stones of remembrance; stones to help you to go forward to the new thing God wants to do for you and through you in this year.

It's Festive Friday and todays movie is a fresh take on a Christmas classic! ABOUT CHRISTMAS KARMA A hard-nosed businessman, Mr. Sood, is forced to confront his past, present, and future over one fateful Christmas Eve - guided by three unforgettable spirits - on a journey toward compassion and redemption. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR CHRISTMAS KARMA November 14, 2025 | Theatrical Release  CAST & CREW OF CHRISTMAS KARMA Director: Gurinder Chadha Writers: Gurinder Chadha, Charles Dickens Producers: Gurinder Chadha, Amory Leader, Celine Rattray Cast: Kunal Nayyar as Eshaan Sood Leo Suter as Bob Cratchit Boy George as Ghost of Christmas Future Billy Porter as Ghost of Christmas Present Eva Longoria as Ghost of Christmas Past BRAN'S CHRISTMAS KARMA SYNOPSIS It's Christmas Eve and Scrooge is not thrilled. His employees are busy throwing a Christmas party. And this is when we find out this is a musical. Honestly, had no idea. Scrooge fires everyone except his accountant Bob Cratchit. He reluctantly gives Bob an advance on next month's pay so he can buy presents for his kids. Scrooge hates Christmas. When he gets home, he thinks he sees something on the door, but it's nothing. Except when he goes to go to sleep, he hears a loud bang on the door. It's the ghost of his old business partner, Jacob Marley. Marley warns Scrooge that he better change his ways OR ELSE! To help him, he will be visited by three spirits throughout the night. Scrooge is like whatever and falls asleep. He is woken up by the ghost of Christmas past. It's Eva Longoria, DUH! She projects images of where he grew up in Africa with his best friend Akiiki. We see him and his family learn the news that all Asians must leave the country within 90 days. Scrooge is forced to watch his father die and other bad stuff. But it's not all bad. We see him at his first job, falling in love, proposing. But her parents don't believe he will be able to financially support their daughter. So Scrooge is like just wait and see. I'll show you! Scrooge starts a business and refuses to help his first boss, Mr. Fezziwig, when he asked him to help him. He shows up a year later, shows that he has money to her parents but she isn't interested because she learned about how he treated Fezziwig. She shows him what happened to her but he's not interested. He insists that he regrets nothing! It's time for the ghost of Christmas present! He's fun. He's funky. He's Billy Porter. He shows him the Cratchit house on Christmas who is discussing Scrooge. Bob says he's just sick. Something is broken inside of him. Then he sees his nephew at a Christmas party, mocking Scrooge, and dancing big. Suddenly, the ghost of Christmas future. Obviously, it's Boy George. And he is joined by Billy Porter for a duet while Eva Longoria stands there awkwardly. He discovers his death, but more importantly the death of Tiny Tim. He promises he will change. He wakes up and it's Christmas. HE DIDN'T MISS IT! He goes to give money to everyone. And they all meet up to celebrate at the Christmas carnival.

Adoption belongs at the center of the pro-life conversation, not on its periphery. Yet Christians who can speak fluently about abortion policy often go quiet when the topic turns to adoption -- what it means theologically, what it demands practically, and why it is one of the most concrete pictures of the gospel available to the church. In this episode of the Libertarian Christian Podcast, host Doug Stewart and guest Jacqueline Isaacs make the case that the theology of adoption is not a sentimental add-on to Christian ethics but a load-bearing wall.Jacqueline serves as managing editor for the Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics, president and chief content officer of Bellwether Communications, and adjunct professor of business at Cumberland University. She and Doug both have personal stakes in this conversation: Doug is himself an adoptee, and Jacqueline and her husband completed the adoption of their son about two and a half years ago. What makes this episode work is that the theology flows from lived experience, not from abstract argument.The episode moves through the personal stories, the economic and demographic realities of adoption in America, the church's specific calling to support adoptive families, and the rich Pauline theology that makes adoption more than a social good -- it makes it a sign of the gospel itself. Here is the argument the episode builds.Additional Resources:Libertarian Christian Podcast:Ep. 436: Sympathy for a Scrooge, with Jacqueline Isaacs -- Jacqueline's previous appearance on the show; a natural companion for listeners who want more from this guest.External Reads:"The Joy of Our Adoption" by Jacqueline Isaacs, Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics -- Jacqueline's personal account of her family's adoption journey, referenced in the episode.

Fun fact – Austin Bateman, the actor in the show who plays Young Scrooge, is a fan of the podcast. He's done a great job interpreting how a younger BJ Harrison would sound as Scrooge.
