Jesus redefined God as "Father," inviting us to engage with faith, justice, and the church's role in society. This episode explores how the concept of "Father" in the Lord's Prayer shifts from an ancient patriarchal lens to a radical, relational, and restorative vision of God. Through powerful storytelling, the hosts unpack Jesus' redefinition of "Father" as a term of intimacy, love, and belonging—challenging cultural hierarchies and calling the church to embody cruciformity in community.
Dive into nuanced discussions about Christianity, faith, and theology while reflecting on the intersection of cultural issues, justice, and the teachings of Jesus. Together, the hosts wrestle with navigating cultural challenges, addressing Christian nationalism, and envisioning a faith that uplifts rather than marginalizes. From the parable of the prodigal son to real-world acts of love and resistance, this conversation centers on the transformative impact of God's love.
