Send a textSkiing is fun. Apparently. (And so is pretending we didn't ghost you for six months.)Episode 128 is a pure catch-up chaos special: Jesse, Jen, and Evan reconvene to explain where the heck they've been, why the show went dark, and what it might look like to keep this thing alive from afar.We dig into:The “we've been busy” recap (translation: life exploded) Evan being “back”… but also not back… but also kind of back The plan: try this again for ~6 months, likely one episode a month, while figuring out remote recording logistics Grassroots updates: new building, Craig as part-time pastor, plus others speaking A quick Lone Canary plug: new album Dime Store Horses, vinyl, and a potential CO/NM/(maybe) Dakotas tour routeEvan's update: now lead pastor at Morning Star Friends Church (Quaker), adapting “missional community” thinking in a more conservative, wealthy suburban context And the big teaser: Evan is writing a book tentatively titled Igniting Suburbia about missional life in the suburbs Then, because it's us, we debate whether “AF” is still cool and brainstorm renaming the show into something extremely unserious. So crack open an NA beer, throw a ketchup pun at your friends, and tell us what topics you actually want—because if y'all don't interact, Jen threatened to quit again.

What if every conversation you have is already spiritual, and the real issue is whether you know how to engage it?In today's episode, Kris and Ken unpack what it means to have innovative spiritual conversations that are natural, Spirit-led, and rooted in real life. Moving beyond canned approaches and religious jargon, they explore how Jesus modeled conversations that entered people's life stories, listened deeply, and introduced truth at just the right moment.You'll hear a practical framework for understanding the different levels of spiritual conversations, why “faith comes by hearing” is not limited to pulpits or Bible studies, and how milk and meat really work in discipleship. This episode challenges leaders and everyday believers alike to stop forcing conversations and start discerning them, learning how to make the gospel understandable, accessible, and compelling within the context of real human experience.If you want to grow in discernment, disciplability, and everyday spiritual influence, this conversation is for you.

Why do I always feel awkward sharing my faith? What could it look like to have intentional spiritual conversations? Author Kevin King shares about the power of living authentically and letting the Lord lead. Living Out Loud by Kevin King Deuteronomy 6 Luke 10 "Living out loud is not living obnoxiously." "If you're not awkward about your spirituality, they won't feel awkward about it." Matthew 10:19 "This is not about a strategy for how to get to the Gospel. It will get to the Gospel for people who are interested. It's just about feeling comfortable in our own spiritual skin, dismantling all of this false narrative and false belief that we have built up. Become comfortable, live out loud, and you will actually find out that the harvest is plentiful." "It's not even about evangelism; it's really just about being genuine spiritual people, and then the result is that Gospel conversations happen." "Be who you are without an agenda."   Access Living Out Loud resources for churches here!

In this heartfelt and highly practical episode of Faith Talks, Janna and Anna Faith return in person to continue their series on “Faith Over Fear.” Today's focus is the often-overlooked yet deeply personal fear of communication—whether it's not knowing who to talk to, what to say, or when to say it. They candidly share biblical wisdom, personal stories, and real-life encouragement to help you overcome fear and choose faith in your daily conversations.Topics DiscussedThe spiritual power of the tongue (James 3)Fears surrounding communication: who, how, what, and whenHonoring parents through open communication (Ephesians 6:2)Speaking truth even when it's hard (Proverbs 12, 27)Moses' fear of speaking and God's promise to help (Exodus 4)Giving grace in speech (Colossians 4:6)Personal stories of bitterness, forgiveness, and reconciliationSimple steps for starting spiritual conversationsCreative methods for difficult conversations (writing letters, texting)Pouring your heart out to God (Psalm 62:8)Key TakeawaysCommunication is one of the most powerful tools God has given us, and it should be stewarded in faith, not fear.Speaking the truth—especially when it's hard—is not only obedience to God but a gift to those around you.God promises to help us communicate when we feel weak or inadequate—He made our mouths (Exodus 4)!Reconciliation and honesty bring spiritual freedom, even when they take time or courage.When you pour out your fears to God, you'll find the strength to speak with grace, humility, and purpose.Faith Talks is a monthly program on the Thee Generation podcast designed to help young ladies discover greater ways to nurture and exercise their faith in their day-to-day walk with Christ.

In this enlightening episode of "Father and Joe," hosts Father Boniface Hicks and Joe Rockey delve into the profound journey of transforming from mere onlookers to active participants in the Mass. This transformation is likened to the difference between watching a NASCAR race and being one of the drivers, feeling every exhilarating moment. Father Boniface emphasizes that this journey is not an all-or-nothing proposition; it's about making a choice. He contrasts the utilitarian view of the Mass with its true essence—an ever-growing relationship, much like a marriage, which flourishes the deeper it becomes.The conversation addresses common objections, such as the misconception that every Mass is the same, and highlights how each experience is unique, just as no two days with a friend are ever identical. Father Boniface eloquently speaks about the Mass as a dynamic relationship, not a transactional experience. It's about the opportunity to sacrifice, love, and give everything for something greater, echoing the Christian value of martyrdom—offering oneself entirely out of love.Together, they explore the structure of the Mass, from the initial acknowledgment of sins to the transformative power of the Liturgy of the Word and the Eucharist. This episode uncovers how each stage of the Mass is designed to guide us from external observance to internal engagement. They discuss practical steps for entering deeper into the Mass, recognizing the signs and symbols that catch our attention, and ultimately meeting Christ through the Holy Communion. As Father Boniface mentions, staying in this relationship, even when not fully engaged, brings profound growth, both spiritually and personally.Father Boniface also touches on his book, "The Hidden Power of Silence in the Mass," inviting listeners to dive deeper into the beauty and purpose of the Mass. This episode serves as both a spiritual guide and a heartfelt conversation, encouraging everyone to reclaim their faith journey and build a stronger union with God, whether they've drifted away or seek to deepen their existing relationship.Tags: Mass, Spirituality, Church, God, Eucharist, Relationship with God, Faith Journey, Active Participation, Worship, Spiritual Growth, Community, Catholicism, Marriage Analogy, Transformation, Sacrifice, Liturgy, Eucharistic Prayer, Encountering Christ, Holy Communion, Personal Growth, Divine Presence, Christian Values, Faith Obstacles, Spiritual Direction, Handbook to Mass, Engaging Worship, Religious Practice, Catholic Faith, Spiritual Reflection, Deepening Faith, Mass Structure, Spiritual Conversations, Faith and Love, Building Relationships, Finding Purpose, Mass Experience, Christian Life, Spiritual Insights, Worship Guidance, Faith RenewalHashtags: #Mass #Spirituality #Church #God #Eucharist #FaithJourney #ActiveParticipation #Worship #SpiritualGrowth #Community #Catholicism #MarriageAnalogy #Transformation #Sacrifice #Liturgy #HolyCommunion #PersonalGrowth #ChristianValues #FaithObstacles #SpiritualDirection #MassHandbook #EngagingWorship #ReligiousPractice #CatholicFaith #SpiritualReflection #DeepeningFaith #MassStructure #SpiritualConversations #FaithAndLove #BuildingRelationships #FindingPurpose #MassExperience #ChristianLife #SpiritualInsights #WorshipGuidance #FaithRenewalThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.

Krista Tippett's work in the realm of spirituality and human experience is unparalleled. She just has a divine gift for distilling complex topics into clear, palatable information that we can sit with, dissect, and examine. She uses her OnBeing podcast as a place to conduct honest conversations with theologians and thought leaders about what it means to be human, what it means to be alive. Curiosity is welcome in her space. She brings a sense of calm to everything around her. So during the frenzy of the holidays, which can be both joyful and stressful, we wanted to circle back to this centering conversation with Krista to decompress and be at peace with the world. This conversation feels like an oasis in what is always a chaotic month so it's our gift to bring it back for you this week.  Segments: Bless and Release: Rules for holiday decorating and making the holidays magical GenXcellence: Essentials for outfitting a GenX space *** Thought-provoking Quotes: If a thing is feeling stressful and not joyful, it needs to be re-evaluated. – Jen Hatmaker I actually found in the Bible, reading it for myself directly, that it completely honored the questions, and it honored the anguish, and it was full of things that didn't make sense or were contradictory. And for me that was an opening to not feel that faith had to be in opposition to what didn't make sense or was contradictory. – Krista Tippett There has to be a way to represent the complexity of this, and also the centrality of it, the fact that it's more about questions than it is about answers, and the array of how we walk around with this, and what it means in our lives, and the ways we practice, and the vocabulary we have, and the different ways we pray. I wanted to show that you could talk about this and we could speak about the part of ourselves that we mean when we use language of religious or spiritual. – Krista Tippett The sensibility, the intentionality with which something is offered, shapes the reaction that comes at it. – Krista Tippett I do have a spiritual homeland and I do have a spiritual mother tongue. That matters. – Krista Tippett Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Walter Brueggeman – https://www.walterbrueggemann.com/ The Prophetic Imagination – https://onbeing.org/programs/walter-brueggemann-the-prophetic-imagination-dec2018/  Thích Nhât Hanh – https://plumvillage.org/  Desmond Tutu – https://www.tutu.org.za/  Mary Oliver – https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/mary-oliver  I Got Saved By the Beauty of the World – https://onbeing.org/programs/mary-oliver-i-got-saved-by-the-beauty-of-the-world/ Guest's Links: OnBeing Podcast - https://onbeing.org/series/podcast/ Krista's website - https://onbeing.org/our-story/krista-tippett/ Krista's Twitter - https://x.com/kristatippett Connect with Jen!
