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.
