In this conversation, Jesus Collective and Marty Solomon explore the concept of mission within modern churches, questioning its biblical roots and examining how cultural pressures have shaped contemporary understandings. They discuss the dichotomy between right-handed and left-handed power, emphasizing the importance of solidarity and relationship over conquest. The dialogue also touches on the nature of the Kingdom of God, the restoration of shalom, and the need for a critical examination of the church's mission in light of Jesus's teachings.

Losing the Way is an investigative podcast from Jesus Collective in collaboration with The Jesus Experience, hosted by Preston Ulmer.

It explores a provocative question: has modern Christianity, especially evangelicalism, drifted from the original “Way” of Jesus?

Through honest and thoughtful conversations with scholars, pastors, and practitioners, each episode traces where that shift may have happened, why it matters today, and what it could look like to rediscover a faith rooted more deeply in the life and teachings of Jesus.

This is not a podcast about tearing down the church. It is about asking better questions, wrestling with uncomfortable truths, and seeking a path back to the kind of faith that once made the message of Jesus truly good news.
