Background of the Gospel of LUKE: 1. Who: Luke, a Gentile Physician who “writes with the compassion and warmth of a family doctor” as he carefully documents the life of Jesus. The “we” portions of Acts (16:1-17; 20:5-21:18, 27:1-28:16) subtly reveal that Luke was a traveling companion of Paul. Luke was with Paul during both of his Roman imprisonments as Paul’s “beloved physician” (Col. 4:14, Philemon 24, 2 Tim. 4:11), evidence of Luke’s loyalty even in the face of personal danger. Luke is the only Gentile contributor to the New Testament. Church tradition tells us that Luke was from Syrian Antioch, remained unmarried, and died at 84 years old. 2. When: Luke wasn’t an eyewitness of the events in his gospel, but he relied on the testimony of eyewitnesses and written sources (1:1-4). It’s highly likely that during Paul’s 2- year imprisonment in Caesarea Philippi that Luke gathered information from eyewitnesses for his gospel, especially from Mary, mother of Jesus. Luke likely wrote during Paul’s first imprisonment in Rome, during the late 60s. 3. Whom: Luke’s carefully written gospel was presented to “the most excellent Theophilus” (“friend of God”). The title indicates that he was a man of high social standing and likely was a man of means who paid the cost of publishing Luke/Acts so they would be available throughout the Gentile world. 4. What: Luke’s gospel is the longest book in the New Testament. The combined “2 volume set” of Luke and Acts makes up 28% of the entire New Testament, which makes Luke the most prolific author (2,138 verses to Paul’s 2,033). Luke writes in the most refined Greek in the New Testament. He translates Aramaic terms with Greek words and explains Jewish customs and geography for understanding. Luke’s most striking feature is his strong interest in people impacted by the ministry of Jesus, as he present Jesus as the true Savior of the whole world. Luke relates how the gospel impacts Jews, Samaritans, Gentiles, rich and poor, respected and despised, insiders and outsiders. 5. WHY: Luke clearly states his purpose in his prologue: “That you may have certainty concerning the things you have been taught” (1:4). Luke wanted to create an accurate, chronological, and comprehensive account of the life of Jesus to strengthen the faith of believers and to bring saving faith to unbelievers. A secondary purpose was to demonstrate to the Romans that Christianity was not a political threat. For example, three times Luke records Pilate’s acknowledgement of Christ’s innocence (23:4, 14, 22).

Jesus's Power for Mission

Jesus’s Power for Mission Luke 4:14-21 Exegetical Main Point: Today is the day of salvation. Jesus, full of the Spirit, came not to condemn but to set captives free to serve him in the power of the Spirit. Main Point of the Sermon:Jesus fulfilled his mission in the power of the Spirit and empowers us to do the same. Intro Me: I grew up hearing stories from my parents about times of revival when God’s Spirit was so active in a room that people would grip the back of pews in conviction of their sin, they would sometimes run to the altar before the preacher could finish his message. Bars would be emptied, and churches filled with sinners seeking mercy from God in Christ. I heard the stories and with some hesitation wanted to see God move like that. I wanted to be used as a preacher of God’s Word like that, and yet I wondered if it were ever possible for me. When I looked at my life, my capacity, my track record with sin or faithfulness with the Word and prayer, let alone sharing the Good News with others, there seemed to be some disconnect with me and these powerful Christians who were seeing so much fruit. The reality is the Spirit of God is still alive and active among us and around the world today. The Christian message is believed by over 2 billion people and literally millions more are coming to faith daily around the world – sometimes spreading most quickly in the most unlikely places like Iran, China, and North Korea. People are daily gripped with conviction over their sins as the living Christ continues to show up to people and call them by name through faithful witnesses. I believe this, and by God’s grace, in my short life I’ve gotten to see and be a part of God’s work to save the lost and heal the sick both here and abroad. But sometimes, still, I doubt God will use me, that he wants to work through me. Our Tension: Maybe you’re like me. You hear the stories, and you believe that God is at work, but you wonder… “could God ever use me… Could I ever be the kind of Christian that walks in the kind of boldness and power that the early disciples walked in?” Do any of you resonate with that? Some of you may even say outright, “That’s not me and will never be. I’m just not one of those radical Christians.” Maybe like me you understand the mission of God, you like the idea of making disciples, but don’t quite understand the how behind what God promises to accomplish through his Church. I want to answer the question today how did Jesus accomplish his mission and how do we now accomplish the mission he has given us? My prayer today is that every one of us would believe that we, every believer in this room, have access to God’s Spirit like Jesus, his apostles, and all the heroes of the faith for powerful, bold, and effective ministry. Let’s pray to that end. Here’s where we are going: 1) Jesus’s Mission 16-19 2) Jesus’s Power 14, 18 3) The Church’s Mission 4) The Church’s Power Text: Scope:Before we dive in you need to know that my goal today will not be to track the narrative Luke is telling in this section which goes until verse 30, but to focus on the first section of this text where we see Jesus’s relationship with the Spirit of God for mission. Ross will pick up on this text next week and more closely follow the narrative of Jesus being rejected in his hometown. That being said, let’s look at the first point. Jesus’s Mission Verses 14 and 15 record that after Jesus was baptized and tempted in the wilderness for 40 days by Satan he returned to Galilee, the region where he grew up and he was teaching in the local synagogues. Synagogues were Jewish places of worship and prayer, where groups that averaged around 20-30 locals would gather, primarily on Saturday – the Jewish Sabbath. They gathered to hear the Scriptures read and taught, and to sing Psalms and hymns to the Lord. After giving us a little snapshot of Jesus’s activity in his first days of ministry Luke records one instance of Jesus’s synagogue teaching ministry in verses 16 and following: 16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. 17 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. Jesus returns to Nazareth his hometown, and we are told, Jesus stood up to read, and that day the scroll of the prophet Isaiah happened to be given to Jesus – this seems like no coincidence – and Jesus found the place where it is written… Let’s read verses 18-19 again: 18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaimgood news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaimliberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to setat liberty those who are oppressed, 19 to proclaimthe year of the Lord’s favor” (Luke 4:18-19). Jesus is reading from Isaiah 58:6 and 61:1-2. Luke says that after he read these passages, Jesus rolled up the scroll and sat down, and everyone’s eyes were fixed on him, waiting to see what he would say. Verse 21: 21 And he began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” Jesus “began” to say to them… this implies that Jesus taught other things along with this promise of fulfillment but Luke seems to sum up the point of the teaching in this phrase of Jesus. When you read this, you should be asking “how”, how are these Isaiah passages fulfilled in Jesus life? The people that day didn’t literally see Jesus setting captives free or giving sight to the blind before their eyes, so what was he saying? Jesus was making the claim that in him the kingdom of God had come. He was making the claim that he was the Servant of the Lord prophesied about in Isaiah 42-66 who would bring about the renewal of God’s kingdom on earth, like it once was in Eden. From the fall of man, God promised that he would make a way for man to dwell again with God like they did in Eden, but even better – without any form of evil! So, from the first promise of salvation in Genesis 3:15 until this moment, people were waiting for the promised Seed who would crush the deceiving serpent, overcome death, and bring people back to Eden. This is what Israel was waiting for. This was their hope, and Jesus says that it was fulfilled that day. IN HIM. What a moment for this little Nazarene synagogue. The king of Israel didn’t announce his appearance and mission in the streets of Jerusalem, at the temple court, or in the palace of Herod, but at a small town rural church, as it were, with a simple sermon. Not only does Jesus announce who he is, he announces what he came to do. These words from Isaiah capture his mission. What was the mission? When you read these words from Jesus, what would you think his mission was going to be? Is it good works or helping suffering people? If that’s your thought, that would be a good guess. The mission of Jesus was to set captives free through the proclamation of the Good News of the coming of the Kingdom. The Kingdom had come because the King had come! I want you to notice the verbs (or more precisely, the infinitives, for you grammar nerds) in this passage. Jesus came “to proclaim” listed three times in these two verses and “to set” once. This is important for several reasons. Jesus’s mission is not first a charity mission, in which he comes to make the poor rich and healthy. It is first a reconciliation mission. Let me explain. The problem with mankind is not first our poverty or our death, but rather our sin, which leads to poverty and death. Sin separates from God who is the source of life. Thus the answer to our problems is reconciliation with God. But in order to be reconciled to God sin must be dealt with. We need to understand. The “poor” in Luke is a major theme, and while it does include economic status, the primary emphasis is on the heart posture of the poor. It is the poor “in spirit” (Mt. 5), those who recognize their need for God that will receive God’s powerful rescue. Isaiah, and now Jesus, expounds on this spiritual poverty with several other pictures: captivity, blindness, and oppression. These are the results of sin. Do you know that you are captive to the sin nature, blind to your need for God, and oppressed by Satan, the father of lies? This is why Jesus came preaching. His primary mission was not healing, not multiplying bread, or raising the dead. He came preaching a message of Good News to the spiritually poor, blind, and captive, a message so powerful that it would raise the spiritually dead! One commentator notes that the word “freedom” (aphesin) always refers to the forgiveness of sins elsewhere in Luke-Acts.[1]Jesus is focusing on the sin problem. So then, what is the Good news of Jesus? “I will give you spiritual sight. I will set you free from your slavery to sin! I will deliver you from you Satan’s oppression and bring you to God through forgiveness of sins. I was sent to rescue you if…if you will believe in me, the King.” How is one set free? By believing on the one sent from God, Jesus (Jn 3:16). Jesus came preachingthis message and this same message is what will set you free today. Our main problem in this world is not poverty, hunger, or even justice issues, but rather, our sin, which has separated us from God. Let me show you a little bit more evidence from our text that Jesus’s primary mission is to overthrow sin. Notice where Jesus stops reading in Isaiah 61. What’s missing that Jesus’s didn’t quote in verse 2? “2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; Jesus stops reading before the comment about God’s vengeance on sinners (see Is 61:2b). Why? Jesus has been sent not first to condemn the world but that the world might be saved through him (John 3:17). Jesus’s first coming is not about wrath for sin, of destruction of Israel’s enemies, but about mercy for sinners who deserve wrath, even the Jews. If he came for final judgment and the removal of all sin and suffering in this world, every man would perish in sin. But Jesus didn’t come for vengeance. He came for salvation for all who would believe in him. He came “TO SET” at liberty those who are oppressed by sin and Satan. How? By himself taking on the vengeance of God at the cross on behalf of those who would believe. Those who believe in him will not have to perish for sin like Jesus, but rather live eternally in God’s presence. But you also need to know that those who do not believe are already condemned. Implied here is the reality of God’s coming vengeance. Jesus didn’t stay in the grave. He rose again, and is coming again. Jesus will in the end have victory over Satan, his angels, and all who are in accord with him. He will take vengeance in the future, but this is the age of grace, the day of salvation. There is still opportunity to enter into God’s rest as long as you are alive and Christ hasn’t come, but that window is closing quickly. When Jesus returns or if you pass into eternity today without knowing him, there will no longer be an opportunity to repent, and how terrible it will be to fall into the hands of the living God (Heb 10:31). If you don’t know Christ today, come to him. Please come to him. Escape the punishment that is coming on you. All he requires is a movement of trust towards him. You may feel utterly chained and imprisoned by sins and addictions, but all he calls you to do is lift up your weary head, look to him, and say I’m yours, Lord. If you want healing, if you want rest, find your peace in God through Jesus. Today is the day of salvation. Soul only? So, I’ve said that Jesus mission was first to deal with sin. But this leaves us with an important question. If Jesus’s first mission is to deal with sin, does this mean that God doesn’t care about the suffering in the world? Should we ignore physical needs? No, you need to know that the Good News of Jesus is not only dealing with the sin of the heart, but also with the effects of sin. As humans we are made up of body and soul, we are not just spiritual or just physical, but we are physical and spiritual. If we focus only on the needs of the body our soul will perish without God. But if we focus only on the needs of the soul we neglect the beauty of God’s good design in the material world. God’s salvation plan to restore all things that sin destroyed on earth includes body and soul, physical and spiritual. But you have to know that without dealing with the root of all the evil we experience, the effects could never be dealt with. But if sin is overcome, the effects will be undone. God’s kingdom advances first in human hearts, but it will ultimately bear fruit unto everlasting life in new resurrection bodies in a new heavens and new earth where this is no more suffering, pain, or death. Jesus models this for us in his ministry. Though his primary work was to preach the message of forgiveness of sins, he healed, he cast out demons, and raised the dead in order to show us what the kingdom he was going to bring was like. But the question remains… how? How did Jesus fulfill his mission. This leads us to our second point. Jesus’s power Luke emphasizes more than most authors of the New Testament, that Jesus’s power for completing his mission was the Holy Spirit. If we back up in our text to verse 14, we read these words, “And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee…” Who is the Holy Spirit? Briefly, he is one of the three divine persons of the Godhead, who is biblically described as the empowering figure behind every prophet and teacher of the Word as well as the inspiration for the Word. The Spirit puts God’s will and word into action and completes it in creation, salvation, and recreation. The Spirit is one with God the Father and God the Son in such a way that he can do nothing but what the Father and Son are doing. What is Jesus’s relationship with the Spirit? Let’s review what Luke has shown us up to this point. It all began before Jesus was born, when the angel prophesied to Mary in Luke 1:35 that Jesus would be born of the Holy Spirit. In 2:40, we are told that Jesus as a boy was “filled with wisdom. And the favor of God was upon him.” This was pointing to the Spirit’s presence in Jesus’s life. In 3:16, Jesus is prophesied to be one who would “baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire”, before he himself would be baptized and have the Spirit descend on him in bodily form. Then, after the baptism we are told in 4:1 that“Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness 2 for forty days, being tempted by the devil.” Now in verse 14, today’s text, we are told that Jesus returns in the power of the Spirit to teach, and that the Spirit of the Lord was upon him for the fulfillment of his mission as shown in Isaiah 61. Luke, who is also the author of Acts – which is a memoir of the living Christ by the Spirit working to build his church through the Apostles – is trying to show the church where power for mission comes from. How did Jesus overcome Satan in the wilderness? It was not only knowledge of the Word that helped him overcome, but the presence of the Spirit. How did Jesus know what to say and do? Luke shows us that Jesus “returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee.” His miracles, his teachings, his daily direction, even the effect of his work on the cross – offered by the Spirit (Heb 9:14). – was ruled and empowered by the Holy Spirit. This is why you see Jesus saying things like – “the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does” (John 5:19). Jesus lived every moment in dependence on the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. Maybe this is confusing to you. Well, you’re in good company. The church has wrestled to understand these mysteries now for two millennia. You might ask: Daniel, if Jesus is God, he is the essence of power. What other power could he need? In other words, how do we reconcile what we see Jesus doing as the divine son of God with his limitations and dependence on the Holy Spirit in all of life? The Scriptures teach that in the mystery of the incarnation, Jesus remained divine though he took on human flesh. He did not lose any of his divinity or even his divine attributes, but in this position and in his role as the Son of God he willingly limited himself in a human body, and submitted himself to the Father as the perfect son of God that Adam, Israel, and we were supposed to be, only utilizing his divine attributes according to the Father’s will. Gerald Hawthorne, a longtime Greek professor at Wheaton college wrote extensively on this subject in his book The Presence and the Power: the significance of the Holy Spirit in the life and ministry of Jesus. He writes, “[Jesus] faced life precisely like any other human being faces life—not as some colossus striding unfeelingly over the earth, but as a person limited physically and mentally, exposed to all kinds of diseases, subject to all sorts of temptations…” (p. 230). Why? Luke sprinkle these statements about the Spirit leading, resting upon, and empowering Jesus because Jesus was living as humanity’s representative and example! He was going before his people whom he would set free so that we also could live in the power of the Spirit on earth. Jesus’s life fulfilled the Law of God perfectly, as well as his mission presented in Isaiah 61, and the power for that fulfillment was the Holy Spirit. So here’s the million dollar question: What does this have to do with us today? To say it frankly, Everything!Here is the third point. the church’s mission: Jesus’s mission will be fulfilled ultimately through the Church. Before Jesus went to the cross he said to his disciples, 21“Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.” 22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. (John 20:21-22). Before Jesus ascended he told his disciples that he was going to give them the Holy Spirit so that they would be his witnesses to the ends of the earth (Ac 1:8). And on the day of Pentecost, God’s Spirit was poured out on 120 believers who were gathered together praying. Guess what? It led to… 1) a proclamation of the Good News of the Kingdom in Jesus 2) and it lead to 3000 people being set freefrom sin and baptized into the church that day. That day the church was birthed and until now the message of the Kingdom coming in Christ’s life, death, and resurrection continues to be proclaimed and spread in the power of the Spirit by the Church of Jesus Christ. The Church’s mission is the same as Christ’s! In the power of the Spirit, through us, the living Christ wants to set captives free. How? Through a proclamation of the Good News of the Kingdom come in Christ. Church, you need to know that God didn’t set us free as an end in itself. Israel fell into the trap of believing that their deliverance was an end in itself, that they could go be whoever they wanted to be and however they would to be it. But no, he set them free so that they would be God’s priests on earth, reconciling the world to God. Now, similarly, he has set the church free and given us the Holy Spirit so that we could be priests of God in the Holy Spirit, reconciling the world to God as his ambassadors. When people encounter God’s people, it should feel like they are encountering God himself. They should be met with the powerful fruit of the Spirit of God, characteristic of God’s children, so that your words and your life as an ambassador of God would be calling them to be reconciled to God. This is Jesus alive in you by the Holy Spirit. So for my final point, let me ask you, what (or who) is the Church’s power? The Church’s power I hope you know the answer to this question. THE HOLY SPIRIT. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, church. When you believed in Christ, you were empowered by the same Spirit that empowered Jesus (Eph 1:20). You have become the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor 6:19). God dwells in me and in you! God’s presence was opened through the curtain of Christ’s own broken body on the cross so that we could dwell with God again in this intimate way, that we would become the temple of the Holy Spirit in Christ, and so that we could fulfill his mission on earth. Being united to Jesus, every Christian could claim Isaiah 61 as your own because of Jesus. In him, you have been anointed with the Spirit for setting captives free. But here is my question for you today. Is this practically, functionally true of you? Are you 1) aware of the Spirit’s empowering presence for mission in your life 2) are you living in the Spirit’s power for mission? Are you aware? I must first say if you are in Christ you already have the Holy Spirit. You have everything you need for holiness and powerful witnessing in Jesus name. However, I think many of us are ignorant to the Spirit’s role in our life for mission? We talk more often about the Spirit’s role in helping us walk in holiness, but not often about the Spirit’s empowering presence for evangelism, bold witness, and good works for the spread of the Kingdom beyond the walls of the church. It’s like we are living off the grid without the power of electricity even though it is available to every Christian. I forget this every day. The enemy wants us to live in fear, and he often fires darts of temptation that attack my identity as a spirit-filled son of God, equipped to do his will and work in the world. If you know this is true, are you living in His power for mission? This is the day of salvation and we have a small window to set captives free who are condemned to hell for rejecting the Kingdom of Christ. Maybe you want to step up in boldness in your spheres of influence in your life, but you simply haven’t known how. I believe the answer starts first with asking God for this gift by his Spirit. As we diligently seek to be equipped with God’s Word to effectively proclaim the Good News like Jesus modeled for us, we must never neglect the Spirit. We could know the Bible front and back, but if we do not rely on the Spirit for powerful witness than we are missing what was central to Christ’s power. If you know and believe that you have the Holy Spirit, let me ask you, have you ever asked God for a fresh filling of the Spirit for mission? As you read Acts, I hope you are following along with us in our daily Bible reading plan, you will see that the disciples, who had the Spirit of God just like we do are described many times over as receiving fresh fillings of the Spirit of God for particular mission. Here’s one example in Acts 4:31, which came after the first baptism of the Spirit. 31 “After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.” The pastors at All Peoples Church believe that the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is received by every believer at conversion. But we also believe Scripture teaches that those who are actively submitting to God as his servants on mission will receive many additional fillings of the Spirit for effective mission (We covered this more robustly in our Midweek podcast a few weeks back). Wayne Grudem offers a helpful analogy with regards to asking for fresh fillings of the Spirit. Every Christian has the Spirit like a balloon which has air in it. But at times that balloon is fuller than other times. How? Through God’s grace, through greater surrender to him and hunger for him. But at times it is less full. We quench the Spirit by our failure to surrender areas of our lives to God. So, our prayer for you is that you would be aware of this great reality, and that you would seek God today for a greater measure of the Spirit’s power in your life through surrender to Christ. I’ve tried to show you today that Jesus fulfilled his mission in the power of the Spirit and empowers us to do the same. Response: Here’s what we are going to do for the rest of our time. We are going to spend the next several moments to seek God’s Spirit for empowering for mission. Here’s what you need to realize as we go to prayer. The devil and his servants love to remind God’s children of their unworthiness before God and of their inadequacies for ministry. The truth is you are unworthy of more of the Spirit because of your many sins. BUT… praise God, he is not measuring your worthiness before him, but Christ’s! In him you are worthy as one of God’s children. He has already given you his Spirit in Christ, and he is eager to give more of the Spirit to those who ask him (Lk. 11:13). But for some of us getting more of the Holy Spirit means greater surrender to Jesus. What I mean is that some of us have areas of our lives that are not yet in accord with Jesus life and commands. If you want God to have more space in your life, then you have to let him clean house for you through surrender of those things to him. Is there any sin that you are coddling? Don’t you know that you are quenching the Spirit and opening the door to the enemy?! So for some of us tonight getting more of the Spirit will look like a greater spotlight on areas of our life that need repentance. But the goal of removing sin is getting more of God. So don’t let sin have a place in your life anymore and let’s ask God to have all of us for the sake of the dying world and for our great joy. [1]Stein, R. H. (1992). Luke(Vol. 24, p. 156).

You are a being of light, literally and biophysically.  Your cells emit biophotons, or ultra-weak ultraviolet light, which then trigger the process of mitosis. So the thing that we’re told causes skin cancer is the same thing that our cells are using to signal cell division, a foundational piece of biological function. Our guest, Matt Maruca, is fascinated by seeming contradictions like this — when what we’re told by the leading authorities seems to contradict logic and common sense — and then he starts asking questions. Matt’s investigation of light led him to founding Ra Optics, makers of the world's finest blue light blocking glasses, and creating The Light Diet, a diet that directly addresses the root of the modern chronic disease epidemic and mitochondrial dysfunction. But he’s not done yet, and today, we invite you to start asking some questions, too. We need to start getting intentional about the light in our homes, in our workplaces, in our children’s schools, and in our cities — and we need to start doing something soon. Because the battle between sunlight and junk light just might be the battle that decides the health of future generations. This isn’t just for you.

Today on Rootstock Radio, Chef Luke Zahm of the Driftless Cafe gets real about what it takes to be conscientious in the restaurant industry, and why serving local food is so important to the greater local food system. Tune in to hear about: The unique food and agriculture scene in the Driftless region of Wisconsin (which is, of course, how the Driftless Cafe got its name.) Why Luke and his team spend 85% of their food budget sourcing from producers within 100 miles of their restaurant. How Luke has made telling the stories of farmers central to his business model. Important conversations taking place among chefs about how to celebrate local food and farmers without grandstanding or exploiting the “trendiness” of farm-to-table. The difference between a fad and a revolution, according to Luke (and why organic is clearly the latter.)

Jesus did everything that he was sent to do and despite that fact, that there were so many that wanted Him dead. King Herod, Temple Leaders, Jewish Leaders, The People, Pontius Pilate, Herod Antipas. These were all major characters leading up to the death of Jesus. In this message we ask the question, "WHY?" Luke 13:31 | NIV 31 At that time some Pharisees came to Jesus and said to him, “Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill you.” 32 He replied, “Go tell that fox, ‘I will keep on driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal.’ Thank you for listening to this podcast.

We're BACK! After our winter hiatus, we're pleased to return with another podcast episode of Star Wars Theory Series. In Part 16 of our podcast, we break down The Last Jedi teaser revealed at the Star Wars 40th Anniversary Celebration. While the teaser was very similar to the one released for Episode VII: The Force Awakens, we still have theories and revelations based on what we saw — and what/who we didn't see in the teaser. In this podcast, we break down: -What the book/piece of paper was that (Rey?) seemed to be touching with her voiceover stating, "dark versus light", and where we've seen that before in canon Star Wars lore; -The fact that we didn't see Benecio Del Toro, Kelly Marie Tran, Laura Dern, or Snoke's characters in the trailer, and how it could be on purpose to mislead us; -If Finn's significance is more than what's lead on; -Why it's 99.99% possible that we'll (finally!) see a the process of a lightsaber being made; -Why Luke could be the true chosen one, and why he might be the greatest Jedi of all; -and much, much more!

Ep. 6: Luke Hohmann - Serious Games / Innovation Games

What have the following things got in common? Weasels, the San Jose public budgeting process, bootstrapping, disposable software, games and mods of games, figure skating, and a Nike sprinter show falling apart after reaching the 100m line? Well, it’s Luke Hohmann they have in common. I learned an awful lot from Luke. Years and years ago I attended one of his Innovation Games trainings and while I really really liked it, it took me years to realise what I really learned. For me, personally, this was the event that finally made me decide to leave the developing world towards the product or business side of the world. This event moved a switch in my head. But what I really realised years later was that I really groked games, game design and above all, I had learned how to facilitate. Luke is so deep into „designing“ his games that never is it by chance if Luke stands, sits, is in the middle of the room, or in a corner or if he even tears apart some game thing that hangs on the wall. Even designing the simple name tags in the beginning of a class is transformed into a designed game, when Luke does it. But Luke got carried away by the games he found. He bootstrapped an enterprise software company that produced a platform for playing a serious games framework at massive scale. Several thousand payers do not bother him. Scaling world wide also does not bother him. No problem seems to be deep for him to tackle. And this then led Luke to extend his activities to facilitating public budgeting rounds, which he started in San Jose. Also, he applies his framework to education. Who knows what’s next? This interview really is a rollercoaster all over the place and also contains really personal stories on why Luke chose the path he chose and what led him. You can see from the show notes how far and deep we went. I’d really urge you to listen to the end. The interview gets even better as longer as we sat together. I hope you enjoy the interview as much as I did and you learn much as I learned! Chapters 0:03:00 What are Serious Games, Innovation Games? 0:23:30 Applying Innovation Games 0:48:24 Scaling Innovation Games in several dimensions & Luke, The Entrepreneur 0:59:04 Personal Choices & the power of collaboration in wicked problems 1:32:22 Concepts - self application of games, disposable software, extrinsic vs. intrinsic quality, strategy frameworks as the next tipping point Chapter Notes 0:03:00 Chapter one: What are Serious Games, Innovation Games? What are Serious Games? „You play a serious game not for pleasure but to have a business outcome. Innovation games are a collection of different games as we have different business problems to solve. A game has four components: (1) It has a goal, something you want to achieve. (2) It has a set of resources and rules and interactions, (3) it has a space or a field of play (4) a way to keep score Why Luke calls games frameworks nowadays. 10:52 The role of fun (or not) in Serious Games; Facilitating Games; (Designing) Games as a way to give permission 17:15 Details matter: A pencil without an eraser „If you want me to engage in the act of design, then don’t give me a pencil without an eraser. 18:20 Explaining the „Speed Boat“ game as an example, how it can be applied (e.g. as a technique for team retrospectives or identifying improvement potential in products. Games have the potential to de-personalize feedback and critique and thus make feedback more acceptable and actionable 0:23:30 Chapter 2: Applying Innovation Games 23:30 Scrum as a game and changing the rules of a game; Modding games is great and the goal; When you learn innovation games, you learn modding them 28:23 Modding Monopoly as an example why modding makes sense 31:18 Innovation games as a way to discover why and intent and why you don’t send bug reports to Richard Stallmann 34:12 Scaling organisations w/ Innovation games „It’s not the picture on the wall that drives behaviour, but it’s the picture in the head that drives behaviour. That means: You gotta change the picture in the head before you change the picture on the wall.“ 35:42 Using the „Buy a feature“ game to discuss portfolios „Any performing executive team will always have more ideas than it is able to fund. So the question becomes „how to pick?“. So McKinsey has the following rules and you want to listen to McKinsey and not Agilists. McKinsey says: pass one - do ROI. Get rid of the projects that are not attractive for ROI - that’s easy. But you still gonna have too many. The second pass: Look at the passion and interests of the team. Now, how do we get to the passion and the interest of this team? Well, we have this game!“ 39:28 Explaining great experiences is hard: „Reading about riding a bike is not riding a bike“ 41:58 - An example of shrinking a portfolio of 38 projects to 6 „There is no way a human being can keep and compare 45 things in his head. I will do better then I put them on the board“ 0:48:24 Chapter 3: Scaling Innovation Games in several dimensions & Luke, The Entrepreneur  48:24 Scaling games to gigantic size: (1) Scaling for magnitude of the problem. From market research to internal use to use in agile organisations (2) Scaling the number of participants: From few in person to several thousand online (3) Scaling in industry, e.g. the Austrian Chamber of Commerce (Wirtschaftskammer Österreich) „Really, is my Scaling Agile book that I’m supposed to follow really more than 400 pages?“ „You’re reading these books on Agile and they’re anything but. It’s like I’m reading the top ten books on Agile and they outweigh me“ 55:16 Entrepreneurship - building an enterprise software company without venture capital funding, Adventures of bootstrapping. 0:59:04 Chapter 4: Personal Choices & the power of collaboration in wicked problems 59:04 Getting personal - choices in life: Figure skating as first exercise in latching onto something without compromise. The way of the weasel. Latching onto something and sticking to it. Not chasing the easy way, but the only way possible. „So, yeah, I thought: I’m gonna live like a weasel for a rest of my life“ 65:01 The power of collaboration - „I really do believe - and it’s not just Luke, it’s also my team and people like you in our network - we really do believe that collaborating teams are the best hope we have for solving the problems we face“ „Teams are everywhere, Teams are the foundation of our work in the future“ A list of books (links below): Team of Teams Team Genius The Silo Effect Exponential Organisations The Connected Company 1:06:51 Extending games to public matters, like funding and budgeting decisions for the public: Every Voice engaged foundation 1:11:16 Games in education, on the example of middle school 1:15:16 Not the easiest way to live, but the most satisfying. The Weasel way again. More examples by Luke and Henry Rollins 1:20:56 The importance of the support of others and support in success 1:25:33 „And So I’ve stopped talking to VCs“ and what Luke still learned from VCs 1:32:22 Chapter 5: Concepts - self application of games, disposable software, extrinsic vs. intrinsic quality, strategy frameworks as the next tipping point  1:32:00 Self applying the cure to the Luke’s company so that everyone knows the experience to the companies’ benefit. 1:36:45 Disposable Software 1:39:02 Release quality, intrinsic quality, extrinsic quality 1:39:45 „They improved quality so much that they lost all innovation.“ „You know, the guy who built Flappy Bird, I don’t know if he had green bar automated tests. Did he have an automated production pipeline? CI/CD? No, I doubt it. He was just a kid having some fun. And he built an incredibly high extrinsic quality App. Now, I don’t know about the level of intrinsic quality … and the point is: It doesn’t matter. 1:42:28 Why the ideal Sprinter shoe should fall apart after exactly 100m 1:46:28 Strategy frameworks on the tipping point: The Ansoff Matrix - an early approach on strategy „As we move from physical labor to knowledge work - and we continue to move down knowledge work - these (strategy & problem solving) frameworks are the next tipping point and it’s really fundamental“ Links and Notes Books and resources by Luke Hohmann Innovation Games Beyond Software Architecture Journey of the Software Professional: The sociology of Software Development  Blog Post: The role of passion in prioritization Every Voice Engaged foundation Organizations andPeople mentioned and more resources Wirtschaftkammer Österreich WKO Report on the cooperation between who and Conteneo Interview with Henry Rollins as a Joe Rogan Experience Podcast: Books mentioned Annie Dillard - „Living like Weasels"   from the book „Teaching a Stone to Talk"  Team of Teams Team Genius The Silo Effect Exponential Organisations The Connected Company Reality is broken, Jane McGonigal Gamestorming People mentioned  Jane McGonigal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jane_McGonigal  Game Designer Matt Leacock (e.g. Pandemic Board Game) Figure skater Toller Cranston: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toller_Cranston
