The Unbroken Ground

What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus? The Unbroken Ground Podcast explores ways to follow Jesus. Sometimes answers are presented and sometimes the episode ends with more questions than answers. Just like following Jesus, producing this podcast is a journey - one I hope you will join and invite others to participate in.

S2-Ep. 2: Let’s Flip Some Tables!
Sunday Jan 14, 2024
Sunday Jan 14, 2024
Picking up on the last episode's theme, the topic of this Podcast is Jesus' heart. Thinking like God must mean that we love like God. And we can look to Jesus' example of how to have the heart of God. Do you love religious rules and requirements more than you love people? Do you support your political party even when it marginalizes and dehumanizes groups of people? In his letter, why does John tell us that if you say you love God but don't love your brother, then you are a liar?

S2-Ep.1: Thinking Like God
Sunday Jan 07, 2024
Sunday Jan 07, 2024
Do you know the heart and mind of God? Can you know how God thinks? As the new year starts, I talk about the importance of thoughts. Beginning in the same place, Phil. 4:8, I want to consider how our thoughts shape our world. I contend that what we think becomes what we say, do, and believe. And what we believe about God and other people will shape how we live our lives.

Ep. 51: Joy - Advent 2023

Sunday Dec 17, 2023
Hello, Fellow Travelers! It is the time of the year that we sing Joy to the World, but does that bring joy to your soul? If not, what does bring joy? Ep. 51 looks at how we can respond to Jesus daily. Specifically, we look at the question Jesus asks his disciples after the crowds leave him in John. Will you leave too? How would you respond? Would you do it with joy in your heart?

Hello Fellow Traveler! Are your holidays missing peace? Maybe you can't remember the last time you would describe anything about your life as peaceful. The second week of Advent is all about the peace Jesus brings. I look at peace through the lens of Mary and Martha in this episode.

Hello Fellow Travelers! This Sunday marked the beginning of the Advent season. Maybe your church celebrated and lit a candle; perhaps they didn't. Either way, the podcast will finish the year by discussing Advent themes and starting with the first candle, which represents the hope that Jesus's birth brings.

Ep. 48: Darkness
Sunday Nov 26, 2023
Sunday Nov 26, 2023
Hello Fellow Travelers! The last episode was silence; this episode is darkness. All must deal with two realities of human life and existence. Jesus promised trouble to those in this world. The Psalms are filled with questions of God going missing. Prayers wondering why the world is the way that it is. This week, we think through the connection between darkness and light and Jesus.
