The Church at the Foot of the Cross (Last Words of Christ Pt. 3)

Episode 47

Monday, March 31, 2025 • Duration 12:20

"Woman, behold your son. Behold your mother." With these words, as he was dying on the cross, directed to Mary and to the disciple John, Jesus founded the church. By praying these words our vision is transformed, enabling us to see anyone and everyone as a beloved child of God, and so continue to build Christ's church.

John 19:23-27
When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his clothes and divided them into four parts, one for each soldier. They also took his tunic; now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from the top. So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see who will get it.” This was to fulfill what the scripture says, “They divided my clothes among themselves, and for my clothing they cast lots.” And that is what the soldiers did. Meanwhile, standing near the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, “Woman, here is your son.” Then he said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” And from that hour the disciple took her into his own home.

Jesus, Remember Me (Last Words of Christ Pt. 2)

Episode 46

Tuesday, March 18, 2025 • Duration 13:21

As Jesus is dying on the cross, a conversation occurs between the two convicts who were crucified on either side of him. One of these men then says to Jesus, "Remember me, when you come into your kingdom." Then Jesus says, "Today you will be with me in Paradise." By allowing this conversation to shape our conversation with God in prayer, our lives and work can become cruciform, taking the form of Christ crucified.

Luke 23:38-43
There was also an inscription over him,[a] “This is the King of the Jews.” One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him,[b] saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!” But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.” And he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

God Loves Work #4: Scarcity, Imagination, and Work (Mark 10:46-52)

Episode 37

Monday, October 28, 2024 • Duration 11:53

Are you ever frustrated by not having enough information, foresight, and understanding, particularly in your work? Do you ever wish that things were just more clear? What if this lack, this scarcity, is by design? What if it could fuel your imagination for how God wishes to use you in your work? In this episode, I explore one of my favorite New Testament stories, Jesus' healing of Bartimaeus.

God Loves Work #3: Our Work as Making, not just Producing (Exodus 31:1-11)

Episode 36

Tuesday, October 15, 2024 • Duration 15:09

How surprising that the very first human mentioned in the Bible as being indwelled by God's Spirit is a craftsman! In this episode I address what this might mean for our work, inviting a prayerful focus on human flourishing.

Episode 35: God Loves Work #2: How Work Goes Wrong (Genesis 11)

The Tower of Babel is a story about how our work can go wrong, including using technology thoughtlessly, and working so as to "make a name for ourselves." The only antidote for these work mistakes (and others) is prayer.

Episode 32: All Boldness and Without Hindrance (Acts 28:30-31) Part I

The book of Acts ends with Paul under arrest, living out his vocation "with all boldness and without hindrance." In part one of two episodes on these verses, I examine how we can pray toward the vocational freedom offered in this passage by coming to understand the relationship between freedom and constraint.
