  • Forgiveness in an Outraged World, with Amy Orr-Ewing
    May 12 2026

    We live in an unforgiving age. Even as we know that Jesus commanded forgiveness, extending it can seem impossible, impractical, self-harming, even unjust.


    In these times of outrage and fear, what can help us become forgiving people?


    Author Amy Orr-Ewing joined us for a recent online conversation, where we explored these questions for a live audience:

    "The church needs to recapture the vision of forgiveness as an actuality. This is something real rooted in the sacrifice of Jesus at the cross. And it's that that has actually been the animating force of the Christian faith throughout history."

    This episode is drawn from an Online Conversation in 2026. You can view the transcript and other resources here.

  • Living a Non-Anxious Life, with Alan Fadling
    Apr 28 2026

    We are a culture well acquainted with anxiety. Recent years have shown it rising dramatically, particularly among Generation Z and Millennials, but affecting all of us. In the Sermon on the Mount, however, Jesus urges us not to be anxious. We wonder: is that actually possible today?


    Author Alan Fadling joined us for a recent online conversation, where we explored these questions for a live audience:

    "Maybe Peace, and its friends like Hope and Joy, maybe that's a better engine, maybe that's a better source of energy and motivation than my anxiety ever has been. And if my anxiety is fuel, then it's fuel that burns dirty."

    This episode is from a conversation from February 2026. You can view the transcript and other resources here.

  • Practicing Slow Theology with Nijay Gupta
    Apr 14 2026

    In a culture shaped by speed, outrage, and constant distraction, many find it difficult to cultivate a resilient Christian faith. Is slowing down a key to renewing our love of God and neighbor, and sustaining a more durable, authentic faith in a restless age? And how, in practical terms, can we tune out the noise and hear the “still, small voice”?


    Drawing on the themes of his book Slow Theology, its co-author, theologian Nijay Gupta, joined us for an online conversation in 2026, where we explored these questions for a live audience:

    "There's a journey that we have to take of striving after God, not because God is a cosmic killjoy, but because we have growth that needs to take place. And that happens slowly."

    This episode is from a conversation from March 2026. You can view the transcript and other resources here.
