Today's episode is part of our Christian parenting mini-series we are offering on “Motherhood Taboos” and we are tackling a big taboo of finding out you're pregnant ... and you weren't planning to be. Our guests are both priests who found themselves unexpectedly pregnant and want to narrate the grief and the joy, the surprise and the wonder, and the challenge and hope of a blessing that can leave you limping from a worldview that supports women's autonomy, choice, and freedom. MORE ABOUT OUR GUESTS:Rev. Mia Kano is an Episcopal priest in the Diocese of Massachusetts, where she serves as the part-time Rector of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Ayer. She lives in Acton, Massachusetts with her husband and two children. Rev. Mia's childhood was shaped by both Catholic and Congregationalist churches. She found her way to the Episcopal Church in her early twenties after exploring secular humanism and Islam. She was ordained as a priest in January 2020. Rev. Reagan Gonzalez was born in Odessa, Texas and raised in Bozeman, Montana. She grew up attending St. James Episcopal Church in Bozeman and later served as its Youth Director and Christian Formation Director before attending seminary. She is a graduate of Montana State University with a degree in Microbiology. After college, Reagan spent a year living in intentional community during a year of service with the Episcopal Service Corps. This experience deepened her faith and confirmed a desire to formally discern a call to ordained ministry. She earned an MDiv from the Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas and was ordained to the priesthood in 2018. Reagan has a passion for community life that is grounded in inclusivity. She loves to preach, teach, tell Godly Play stories to children, and introduce people to an open-minded Christianity where questions are welcomed, and where we trust that we learn best by struggling together to hear where the Holy Spirit is calling. Reagan is married to Bryan, they have two children, and one on the way. +++Like what you hear?

Send us a textLet's talk about it!  A quick 15-20 minute episode to jumpstart some thoughts to consider in your day.  Life is busy but we want to mindful of the reason God placed us on this earth.  One of those reasons is to share our faith in Jesus.  Today we want to talk about why this is hard and also identify some ways we can push back against the barriers that keep us from sharing.  Is there some commonality here between us (Derek and the audience -- you!)?  I hope so!  But let's spur one another on and pray for one another to be bold in preaching Christ.

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.

This is the topic of conversation in episode 2 of our series “Dangerous Discipleship.” Copyright 2025. Please visit SaltyBeliever.com for more information.

This episode kicks off a new series titled “Dangerous Discipleship.” Josiah Walker and Bryan Catherman discuss the ramifications of the Charlie Kirk murder, internet discipleship, and how the world is shaping Christians. It may be helpful to pause to think more deeply about how social discipleship is impacting nearly everyone, regardless of faith. The bigger question is, how does all of this affect Christians?

How do you lead when the rules keep changing, and you're not even on the field? That's the question this week as Start the Week with Wisdom welcomes Rob Anderson, President of SHEEO (State Higher Education Executive Officers Association). In a moment where campus leaders face overwhelming complexity, Rob opens a window into the headspace of the often-misunderstood university system leader, those working behind the scenes to bridge policy, politics, and student outcomes.Hosts Bridget Burns (University Innovation Alliance) and Sarah Custer (Inside Higher Ed) sit down with Rob for a deeply human and surprisingly personal conversation. From his time at a military college to pursuing seminary, serving at a small faith-based college, and ultimately stepping into state policy leadership, Rob shares what drew him into a life of service and leadership, and how he's managed to stay grounded through it all.They talk about:The disconnect between campus and system leaders, and how to close the gapWhat most people get wrong about higher ed policy workHow empathy and humility shape real leadershipWhy taking things personally is a fast track to burnoutHow system leaders protect campuses more than they're given credit forTakeaways:Seminary training can shape policy leadership in powerful, unexpected ways.System leaders are not “the cops”, they're often the shield.Collaboration between campus and system is essential for student success.Don't underestimate the quiet strength in not taking yourself too seriously.Today's leaders must “collabicate”, collaborate + communicate with empathy.“I try not to take myself too seriously, but understand what I do contribute.” - Rob Anderson If this conversation reshaped how you see higher ed leadership, share this episode with a colleague, and don't forget to subscribe so you never miss a dose of wisdom.Learn more about the UIA by visiting:WebsiteLinkedInTwitterYouTubeFacebookThis week's episode is sponsored by Mainstay, a student retention and engagement tool where you can increase student and staff engagement with the only platform consistently proven to boost engagement, retention, and wellbeing.

What is God cultivating in humanity?

In this interview with Dr. James Renihan, we explore the work of Christ and His atoning sacrifice as articulated in Article XVIII of the First London Baptist Confession of Faith. 

“Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied, ‘O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve is able to save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty. But even if he doesn't, we want to make it clear to you, Your Majesty, that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up.” - Daniel 3:16-18The book of Daniel is perhaps the most well-known of the major prophets, but also perhaps the least understood. It is a book of variation: there are perfectly understandable and well-known stories, but there are also visions and dreams and angels and hands writing on walls. There is some truly crazy stuff in the book of Daniel, but at its heart Daniel is a book about the kingdom of God, the faithfulness of God, and the providence of God. To help us navigate the book of Daniel is Dr. John Goldingay, senior professor of Old Testament and David Allan Hubbard Professor Emeritus at Fuller Theological Seminary and author of many books about the Old Testament including a commentary on the book of Daniel.Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by Jason Wieland.

This week on Preach, we launch a new series: Preaching for the Sacraments—how homilists can bring depth and imagination to their preaching during some of the Catholic Church's most meaningful rites. To set the stage, host Ricardo da Silva, S.J., speaks with Anthony Ruff, O.S.B., Benedictine monk and professor of liturgy at Saint John's School of Theology and Seminary in Minnesota. Together they unpack what sacraments truly are—and how to preach them with both depth and imagination. “A sacrament is not a vending machine where we put the thing in our action and then the thing comes out automatically,” Anthony explains. “God acts through symbols such as water and oil and laying on hands and exchanging the peace with one another and singing together.” Grace is not dispensed mechanically, but unfolds through real human experience: “If I'm becoming more human and growing in community, I'm being divinized.” Preaching at sacramental celebrations must therefore begin with the lives of those gathered, not abstract theology. “I really try to say, what's the word that will be Christ for them, that will resonate with their experience?” Anthony reflects. “We really have to think about the whole life of this community—and then our homily is a part of that.” In this episode: 00:00 – ‘A sacrament is not a vending machine' 01:10 – Introduction 02:40 – Meet Anthony Ruff: monk and teacher 04:00 – About the Compelling Preaching Grant 08:10 – What is a sacrament?
