Join Karoline Lewis, Matt Skinner, and Rolf Jacobson as they dive deep into the lectionary texts for the Fourth Sunday after Pentecost (July 6, 2025). This episode explores the fascinating dynamics of Jesus sending out the seventy disciples in Luke 10, where traditional concepts of hospitality get flipped upside down.

The hosts bring their trademark blend of scholarly insight, practical preaching wisdom, and occasional humor as they wrestle with these ancient texts and their relevance for today's church. Whether you're a preacher preparing for Sunday or someone interested in deeper biblical engagement, this conversation offers fresh perspectives on mission, community, and the upside-down nature of God's kingdom.
