In this episode I talk with Justin Kendrick, Lead Pastor of Vox Church, a multi-site church in CT and MA with a vision to see New England become "the most spiritually vibrant place on earth." We talk about some of the themes explored in his book and sermon series, "The Sacred Us: A Call to Radical Christian Community," unpacking complex topics like the epidemic of loneliness, godly confrontation, and church hurt. Too few Jesus followers experience the fullness of Christian community throughout their lifetimes, and "The Sacred Us" outlines why it's so important and how to build a healthy, Christ-centered community. I felt both challenged and stirred by my conversation with Pastor Justin, and I am confident that you all will be too.

Season 2 is here, and we're starting out with a wonderful conversation with Christian content creator and creative Karren Atakora! I've been a longtime fan of Karren's content, so this interview was a true joy to conduct. Join us as we discuss topics like the intersection between faith and creativity, living set apart as a college student, and remaining humble while in the public eye. Heads up that there are some minor/occasional audio quality issues, but I can assure you that the *quality of the conversation* certainly makes up for it :)

A healthy prayer life is crucial to the Christian faith walk, so let's unpack what this key spiritual discipline is all about! To whom should we pray? Can we pray in pajamas? (Yes.) Do our prayers need to sound like poetry? (No.) If God is sovereign, why should we pray in the first place? Explore these kinds of questions and more with me in this second installment of the "Faith Fundamentals" summer series!

The first in a summer series entitled "Faith Fundamentals," in which we'll explore the spiritual disciplines that are crucial to the Christian faith walk. Today's episode is all about reading Scripture. How can we trust the Bible? Why should we read it? How should we read it? Thanks for tuning in!
