Jason Miller - We're still in Romans 9-11, where Paul wrestles with questions about his own Jewish people's place in the ongoing story of God's faithfulness. Before the teaching, you'll hear Jason share about the Post Evangelical Collective, a gathering of kindred leaders and communities that we're a part of. In his introduction, he shared this manifesto from the PEC: "We are church leaders, artists, and other stakeholders who find ourselves estranged from the dominant expressions of American Christianity. We feel homeless in the larger church landscape because: While Evangelicalism is the the ..read more

Jason Miller - After celebrating the power of the love of God in Romans 8, Paul goes on to a complicated wrestling match in chapters 9-11 about the fate of his own people and the faithfulness of God. If you've ever tried to read these chapters, you may have been tempted to skip through them because of how technical they are. But this is one of the places in Paul's work where people have looked to answer big questions about blessing and curse, chosen-ness, who's in, who's out, and the nature of God's character in these things. So in this gathering, we decided to get into it. Ways to Get Connec ..read more

Jason Miller - Palm Sunday is more than a pageant - it’s the performance of a confrontation between different visions of power. Two different visions of God. If we receive the revelation of this day and take seriously what Jesus did, it could transform our relationship with God, our relationships with each other, and even our politics.

Jason Miller - After a long hiatus, we're back to Romans. In the first few chapters of the letter, Paul takes on an accusatory tone that leaves many of us feeling uncomfortable. But what happens if you have enough context to understand what he's doing with this strange argument? You might find a very relevant word for all of us in this current cultural moment.
