What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? Charles Moore joins us to discuss a radical picture of truthful, peaceable, subversive allegiance to Jesus. The conversation is framed around Stanley Hauerwas's latest book which Moore helped him produce. Moore also reflects on the significance of Hauerwas's work for his own Christian journey and for the American church.Get the book “Jesus Changes Everything” This is the 264th episode of Anabaptist Perspectives, a podcast, blog, and YouTube channel that examines various aspects of conservative Anabaptist life and thought.

Palm Sunday: The Subversive King – (Mark 11; Matthew 16, 26; Zechariah 9:9) - Rev. Donnell T. Wyche - a2vc.org. Like us on fb.com/vineyardannarboror watch our livestream Sundays @ 10:45am - vimeo.com/annarborvineyard Summary: In this Palm Sunday message, Pastor Donnell explores the tension between divine hope and human expectation. He contrasts Jesus' humble entrance into Jerusalem on a donkey with the imperial procession of Pontius Pilate entering from the other side of the city. Drawing from Zechariah 9:9, Donnell invites us to notice how Jesus subverts conventional power—not through violence or domination but through vulnerability and prophetic obedience. Pastor Donnell reflects on how the people gathered for Passover saw Jesus as the fulfillment of their long-held hopes for liberation. Yet as the story unfolds, the crowd's enthusiasm turns to disillusionment. Jesus doesn't lead a rebellion against Rome—he cleanses the temple, is betrayed, abandoned, and eventually executed. In that dissonance, Donnell challenges us to consider what happens when our expectations of God don't match how God actually moves. Do we give up—or do we surrender our expectations to follow Jesus in his way of costly, transformative love? This sermon ends with a sobering invitation: the way of Christ is not triumphalism but surrender. Palm Sunday forces us to sit with a God who enters the world not to dominate, but to die—and in dying, to usher in a new kind of kingdom. Pastor Donnell calls the church to live awake to this reality, to deny ourselves, take up our crosses, and follow Jesus, even when it costs us everything.

S7E209 – Exilic Gospel: Subversive Witness Gianna, Jeff, and Michael explore the complex relationship between the kingdom of God and the dynamics of empire, particularly in the context of exile. They discuss the importance of understanding one's identity as an exile, the instructions given in Jeremiah 29 for those in Babylon, and the call to seek shalom in a foreign land. The conversation also delves into the various responses to empire, including syncretism, separation, and revolution, and highlights how Jesus embodies a subversive approach to these challenges.

When Jesus began his public ministry, he proclaimed the arrival of the kingdom of God. What then would he say about who could be a citizen of the kingdom? By exposing the heart conditions that contradict kingdom values, Jesus shows that it is impossible to find the life of the kingdom apart from a devoted discipleship to him and his way.

Listen along as we look at Exodus 2. Notes//Quotes: Exodus 2:1-25 “The one universal balm for the trauma of war was tea. It was the thing that helped people cope. People made tea during air raids and after air raids, and on breaks between retrieving bodies from shattered buildings. Tea bolstered the network of thirty thousand observers who watched for German aircraft over England, operating from one thousand observation posts, all stocked with tea and kettles. Mobile canteens dispensed gallons of it, steaming, from spigots. In propaganda films, the making of tea became a visual metaphor for carrying on. “Tea acquired almost a magical importance in London life,” according to one study of London during the war. “And the reassuring cup of tea actually did seem to help cheer people up in a crisis.” Tea ran through Mass-Observation diaries like a river. “That's one trouble about the raids,” a female diarist complained. “People do nothing but make tea and expect you to drink it.” - Erik Larson Heb 11:23 God's story is not one in which individuals or whole nations are simplistically portrayed as immutably good or bad. People change, times change—and the only constant is that God works in and through the see-saw and reversals of history to accomplish his purpose. - Chris Wright “If God had perceived that our greatest need was economic, he would have sent an economist. If he had perceived that our greatest need was entertainment, he would have sent us a comedian or an artist. If God had perceived that our greatest need was political stability, he would have sent us a politician. If he had perceived that our greatest need was health, he would have sent us a doctor. But he perceived that our greatest need involved our sin, our alienation from him, our profound rebellion, our death; and he sent us a Savior.” - D.A. Carson Waiting requires living by what I know to be true about God when I don't know what's true about my life. - Mark Vroegop 2 Peter 3:8-13
Second Baptist Church - Houston, TX | The book of Esther ends in a rather dramatic fashion, as the climactic reversal of the book in chapter 7 cascades into more reversals throughout the Empire. Altogether, we see God's promises and protections unfold in increasing measure, challenging us today, and painting a picture of our true Advocate in heaven, Jesus Christ.

Low birth rates, eroded social cohesion, and a loss of cultural confidence – these seem to be the fruits of radical individualism and unthinking cosmopolitanism.Today, I'm joined by Jonathan Anomaly to explore a compelling alternative: enlightened tribalism. We'll discuss why the conservative instinct to preserve distinct cultures and communities isn't just natural – it might be essential for civilization's survival. Jonathan brings both philosophical rigor and entrepreneurial insight to explain why some form of tribalism isn't just inevitable, it's desirable.From the failures of liberal democracy to the promise of reproductive technology, we cover the uncomfortable truths that mainstream discourse refuses to acknowledge. This is a conversation about saving Western civilization by embracing, rather than denying, human nature.Jonathan Anomaly is an academic, a writer, and author ofCreating Future People: The Ethics of Genetic Enhancement. He is also a partner in a yet-to-be-disclosed venture in the reproductive technology space, which will undoubtedly be interesting to observe once it becomes public.The papers we reference are:Enlightened TribalismandCan Liberalism Last?Chapters00:00Understanding Enlightened Tribalism06:00Defining Tribalism and Its Implications11:56The Layers of Enlightenment in Tribalism15:58Democracy and Enlightened Tribalism24:04The Future of Tribalism in a Fragmented World26:45Reproductive Technology and the Future of Liberalism34:24Prolonging Fertility and Family Dynamics37:00The Role of Tribalism in Society40:20The Impact of Western Influence on Developing Countries43:34Cultural Aspirations and Economic Dependencies46:19Navigating Liberalism and Tribalism51:11Reflections on Western Civilization and Future Directions55:06Recommended Thinkers and Closing Thoughts
Why does the church have to talk about money? Why did Jesus spend 25% of his teaching addressing money, generosity, and financial stewardship? Because in spotlighting our spending, he can expose our hearts.

Subversive Saints//Reading the Word// Pastor Roger Pethybridge by Inspire Churches
On this first episode of the new year, we examine the aspects of subversive techniques that are being used by the far east. What is the new administration doing to possibly counter these tactics? Is Greenland a strategic move? How can this be used as leverage? Also, we take a look at the last 30 years and ask where the intelligence has been to see this strategy coming. Have defector testimonies been vindicated at this point? And, what goes in in the mind of a psychopath? We ask the questions. Contact and Support - https://www.subscribestar.com/dynamic-independence

This teaching from Pastor Aaron McRae invites us to explore the theme of peace during Advent, imagining a world free from fear, conflict, and division. Together, we reflect on the biblical concept of "shalom"—a holistic peace marked by restoration and wholeness—and how Jesus embodies true peace. Through scripture and the story of Jesus, we are reminded of the call to embrace forgiveness, unity, and gratitude as we live as ambassadors of peace in a fractured world. By sharing communion, reflecting on scripture, and taking practical steps, we can prepare our hearts to receive and share the transformative peace of Christ this Advent season.For the full gathering of this message which includes worship, visit our Youtube channel.

Nothing embodies the GOP and everything that is wrong with it more than Sen. Joni Ernst's “budget” proposal she sent to the DOGE. Today, I explain how the very RINOs who created the debt bomb wait until they are on the hook for a primary challenge and then suddenly claim to care about spending. But rather than becoming converts to our cause, they promote subversive ideas that are designed to elicit positive headlines from conservative media and defuse a primary challenge – all the while failing to advance the ball on policy. So I delve into her spending cuts to show how 90% of them are built on lies and subterfuge and the rest are notional, speculative, unactionable, and designed to distract us. Finally, I propose a messaging strategy for Trump to push welfare reform by pairing it with reductions of foreign workers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
