The Misfit Messengers Podcast

Episode 44

Happy Easter! Christ is Risen!! In today's episode we chat a bit about the mission Jesus gave to the disciples when as he ascended into heaven, but as per usual we meandered along some bunny trails too. Enjoy.

Episode 43 - Good Friday

Today we chat about Good Friday. It's a tough conversation as we think through the events on that day. Let's not rush to Resurrection Sunday. Sit for time and meditate on these things. We all know Sunday is coming, but remember what it might have been like for those living in the moment.

Episode 42 - Palm Sunday

We get to visit in person again chatting about Palm Sunday (among other things), looking in the Gospel of Luke (chapter 19:29-46). Jesus resolved to do what needed doing and wept over Jerusalem and its people. Later in Luke's Gospel Jesus encouraged His disciples saying, "But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves." (Luke 21:14) 
What would our lives look like if we resolved ahead of time, before a situation ever happened, that we were going to let the Holy Spirit take the lead? 

Episode 41

Today we chat about what we covered during each of our respective sermons for the week. Amanda in 2 Samuel 7 and the Davidic covenant and Jenny in Matthew 11:28. Know that God loves you and desires relationship with you. And He keeps His promises!

Episode 40

One final conversation about Luke 15 and the parable of the lost sons. This time we touch on the restoration of the younger son and the response of the older son. We must remember the costly, extravagant, and sacrificial love the Father has for us His children. How do we respond to that love?

Episode 39

A continuation of our conversation about Luke 15 and the parable of the lost sons. 

Episode38

A continuation of the conversation about Luke 15 and the parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the lost sons.
"Remember who the enemy is."

Episode 37

Diving into Luke 15, today talking about the parable of the lost sheep. 
Some of the material is coming from "The Cross and the Prodigal" by Kenneth Bailey. We highly recommend this book. 

Episode 36

Revival and Luke 15, those are the topics we discuss in this week's episode. 
Memorable phrases found in this episode:
'There are no "acceptable losses" in the kingdom of God.'
'Revivals aren't sustainable, but they are sustaining.'
Also referenced is Kenneth E. Bailey's wonderful book: "The Cross and the Prodigal which we highly recommend to you for a fuller understanding of Luke 15.

Episode 35

The second half of our conversation with Matt & Emily. We dive deep into discipleship and the church. In this episode Matt mentions a couple of verses - Philippians 2:12 & Romans 12:2. Also Jenny mentions a book called Not a Fan, written by Kyle Idleman (she couldn't think of the author in the moment).
