VBS: Time After Time 17:41

11h ago17:41

17:41

Here we are with our final very basic story. We’ve walked through the garden of Eden and the wilderness beyond Egypt, through floods and fires, and family fights, and here we end with a book we don’t read often enough. Esther. Known for rising to the occasion when her people needed her most and exemplifying strong, female leadership, Esther’s story…

VBS: Echoes 16:31

1d ago16:31

16:31

Today is all about Daniel, that young man who survived a night in the lions’ den. I don’t really have much to say about the lions this week after seeing all the connections Daniel’s story makes to others we’ve already talked about. Let’s talk about what that might mean today.

4h ago16:03

Just a few more Very Basic Stories to go! Today it’s all about that confusing visit God makes to Samuel in the middle of the night. Let’s see what we can learn from the child growing up in a world not unlike our own. Enjoy!

It's official. God Knows Where is an award-winning podcast! Feels weird to say, but it's all thanks to you for listening, voting, and finding something you like here.

VBS: Coat Check 17:12

16d ago17:12

17:12

Was it a coat of many colors? Was it vivid in technicolor? Who knows? All that matters is this story about Joseph and his special garment has liittle to do with who wore what and how they looked, but who they people wearing and fawning over the coat were. Let's dive in with another Very Basic Story! VBS: Very Basic Stories is a collection of 12 qui…

VBS: Keep Going 16:41

23d ago16:41

16:41

We're doubling back today to a story we skipped over just after the Flood. It's that ancient, epic building tale. The Tower of Babel. It's a story that we often read as a punishment, but I read as an invitation this week. Hope you enjoy! VBS: Very Basic Stories is a collection of 12 quintessential VBS stories for us to look at and see how they hit …

VBS: Fear the Sheeper 17:59

1M ago17:59

17:59

David and Goliath. So much has been written about these two foes that it seems strange to say more. The good news for you is, I'm not really concerned with the stars of this story but rather the men in Saul's army who do nothing and who leave a young boy to face their enemy alone. Let's take a look at them as we continue reading through these basic…

VBS: Gleaning Lady 14:43

2M ago14:43

14:43

If last week's episode was my favorite story in scripture, today is my second. Let's talk about Ruth and what we learn from her and Boaz...which is different from what we often hear when Ruth's story is read at a wedding. VBS: Very Basic Stories is a collection of 12 quintessential VBS stories for us to look at and see how they hit us differently a…

VBS: I Said What I Said 18:03

2M ago18:03

18:03

We’re going to keep moving forward and skip over a few familiar stories, some we might come back to later, to meet Moses talking to a bush that’s on fire, literally, with a message from God. This is the story where we learn God’s name and what that name means for us. Hope you enjoy! VBS: Very Basic Stories is a collection of 12 quintessential VBS s…

VBS: Swimming in Grief 16:41

2M ago16:41

16:41

We’re moving on from the beginning, but not that far ahead. We all know the story of the Flood, but I think we forget how dark it is when we just think about the zoo Noah built. And despite its darkness, it shines a light on how we relate to one another and to God. Let’s take another look! VBS: Very Basic Stories is a collection of 12 quintessentia…

VBS: Chance the Rapids 18:35

I hope y’all are ready to start VBS! Grab some snacks, maybe a vanilla cookie, and some juice. Pull up a carpet square and let’s start talking about some very basic stories this summer! We’ll begin at the beginning. We all know the story of the Garden of Eden, but there’s a big part we overlook every time we read it. An important truth we forget wh…

Healing: War Pigs 18:18

3M ago18:18

18:18

There’s one last thing we haven’t talked about when it comes to healing and all the many things Jesus heals folks from in the gospels: how Jesus heals people from, as the gospels put it, the demons that possess them. I could talk about this story for weeks and, I think, never look at it from the same angle. And I hope y’all are ready for a new seri…

Introducing VBS! 4:59

3M ago4:59

4:59

Check out VBS (Very Basic Stories), our summer series here at God Knows Where. Kids get all the fun with skits and songs and snacks at vacation Bible school, but what about us? There are so many great stories that shaped my faith as a child that I dove into deeply at VBS, but I've noticed something. Once we've learned those stories and what we were…

Healing: Catching Strays 15:44

3M ago15:44

15:44

Today, Jesus is healing the person we hope never gets healed: our enemy. And to make it harder to comprehend, he’s doing it at his absolute lowest moment. So much much to learn from this brief story from Luke. Enjoy! Want to support God Knows Where as we begin to expand all that we offer (while still getting free weekly episodes of the show you’ve …

Healing: No Fear 16:31

3M ago16:31

16:31

Today, Jesus is healing us from the one thing no one can come back from: death. And he’s doing it in a really strange way. As always though, there’s a method in the madness and a message in its midst. Enjoy! Want to support God Knows Where as we begin to expand all that we offer (while still getting free weekly episodes of the show you’ve come to l…

Healing: Blurred Lines 14:50

4M ago14:50

14:50

More than anything else in the gospels, Jesus heals blindness, and there’s one story that’s different than the others. I think it rewires how we look at all the stories of Jesus’ miraculous healing in the gospels and the healing we’re looking for in our lives as well. Thanks for listening! Want to support God Knows Where as we begin to expand all t…

Healing: Pro-Voice 17:10

4M ago17:10

Jesus is unequivocally pro-voice in today’s episode as he restores a mute man’s ability to speak and teaches us why we need to listen to those voices that have been silenced. Hope you enjoy!

Hope you’ve got some listening ears on today! We’ve got a look at a story where Jesus heals our ears so we can hear better than ever before. Enjoy! Thanks for listening, y’all! I’ve been having some really great conversations about the podcast with others and am marinating on some new ideas for us here. Hoping to dig into them all more and bring th…

Healing: Hand Out 15:52

4M ago15:52

15:52

We’re healing hands today instead of legs. Well, not us, but Jesus. And the story we’ve got from Matthew, Mark, and Luke, shows us how we can learn to heal others like Jesus, especially when folks come to us in need. Thanks for listening, y’all! I’ve been having some really great conversations about the podcast with others and am marinating on some…

Episode 5: What we understand of Power 53:40

5M ago53:40

53:40

Greetings! In this episode, we speak of what we mean when we use the word power, and what we mean when we say power-over culture. We speak of composting power-over culture and how one might do that through inner-led change. It is a vulnerable and tender conversation that reveals our own experience and grappling, healing and transformation as we our…

Healing: Leg Day 16:15

5M ago16:15

We’re back on our healing journey with a beautiful story about how Jesus heals our legs not for a long leap, but rather for the long haul from Gospel of Matthew.

Healing In Person 2:07

This week's episode is short...really short, but with good reason and a little homework for you instead. Don't worry it's fun, good, healing homework. And there will be no quiz when we come back next week.By Brett Harris

Once again, we’re (sort of) continuing our newest series on healing, but not quite with a sermon I've preached on Palm Sunday in the past. We'll be back with new episodes all completely about healing next week. Promise! I hope you’ve enjoyed the start to this new series.

Offshoots: This Story Has Legs 14:47

5M ago14:47

14:47

We’re (sort of) continuing our newest series today on healing with a sermon I recently preached at First Trinity Presbyterian Church. I’m on vacation but I didn’t want to leave y’all hanging. It’s all about a story from Numbers that, to me at least, proves how important it is that we heal and heal from our wounds. I hope you’ve enjoyed the start to…

Healing: Crowd Control 13:57

6M ago13:57

13:57

We’re continuing our newest series today on healing with a look at a story that almost has too much healing for one story. But then again, can there ever be too much healing? Especially today? I hope you’ve enjoyed the start to this new series. Tell someone about it and if you like it, leave a review wherever you listen. Thanks for listening! Don’t…

Healing: Grudge Mats 16:29

6M ago16:29

16:29

Let's start our conversation about healing with an incredibly simple question Jesus asks: "Do you want to be made well?" It's a great questions but it's not where I thought we'd start until I realized there was nowhere else we could begin. Thanks for listening! Don’t forget to leave a rating or a review of God Knows Where wherever you listen and he…

Introducing Healing! 10:23

6M ago10:23

10:23

As much as we're crying out for rest, I think we're clamoring even more for healing. Too often, I've found we're searching for healing from wounds caused by the one place we're supposed find wholeness: The Church. Of the 26 different stories of healing from Jesus that appear 48 times across the four gospels, it's hard to find a single one where Jes…

Sabbath: 70 Years of Sabbath 15:59

7M ago15:59

15:59

The way we read the stories in our tradition matters. And there's one story that we read (or don't) out of order to how it was intended. If we think about it in order it can help us remember how important sabbath is for us and everything around us. Hope you enjoy! Thanks for listening! Don’t forget to leave a rating or a review of God Knows Where w…

Sabbath: Healing Isn't Working 15:05

7M ago15:05

15:05

We’re sticking with Jesus today in what I’d argue is the most beautiful example of why Sabbath exists that we have in our tradition. And it comes in the face of the worst interpretation I can think of. Hope you enjoy! Thanks for listening! Don’t forget to leave a rating or a review of God Knows Where wherever you listen and help others find the sho…

Sabbath: Enough is Enough 18:29

7M ago18:29

18:29

We’ve got two stories today, one from Exodus and one from Jesus, about the thing that makes it hardest for us to rest: worry. Take from me, a professional worrier, I think we all need these stories to remind us that we can rest because we have enough. Thanks for listening! Don’t forget to leave a rating or a review of God Knows Where wherever you l…

Sabbath: Apart or A Part? 14:19

7M ago14:19

14:19

As we continue looking at slowing down. Regrounding. At Sabbath, we’re going to do what I think you all may have thought we’d look at last week and go back to the beginning. To the first Sabbath. Because I think we’ve been reading it incorrectly… hope you enjoy! Thanks for listening! Don’t forget to leave a rating or a review of God Knows Where whe…

Sabbath: Should We Stay or Should We Go? 16:38

8M ago16:38

16:38

We’re back today with an all new episode looking at sabbath! I don’t know about you but the last of month of the year was an absolute sprint for me. So here at the beginning of the year, I want to look at slowing down and returning to a more stable pace of life. We’re not going to start our look at Sabbath on the seventh day, that first day God res…

Introducing Sabbath! 3:17

8M ago3:17

3:17

The society we live in throws relentless demands upon us every day. Demands on our time. Demands on our minds. Demands on our bodies. And too often we don’t know how to fight back, so we give in, giving up our time and our minds and our bodies to these demands and leaving little to no time for anything else, especially finding the rhythm and renewa…

Lighting Up the Darkness 16:41

One year ago today, the first episodes of God Knows Where were published and what a year it's been! Today, we're revisiting not the most listened to or best or most tlaked about episode of God Knows Where, but one I think we all need to remember as the days are still short and January can feel like it goes on forever... New episodes all about sabba…

Spare Some More Change 14:31

8M ago14:31

14:31

Today, we're revisiting the most listened to episode of God Knows Where. I think when you listen to it again (or for the first time...) you'll see why more folks listened to this episode than any other. It's all about how we choose to respond when someone asks us for help. People asked Jesus for help all the time and his response was consistent reg…

As we're winding ever closer Christmas and we're still #drawingoutadvent over on the Premium Feed, here's another story of folks who are coming or going home on their way to Bethlehem. These shepherds in today's story, though, don't stay home once they get there...they've got sheep to graze. For what it’s worth, these stories figure prominently int…

As we continue to wind our way to Christmas and we #drawoutadvent over on the Premium Feed, we'll keep looking at stories of folks who are coming or going home on their way to Bethlehem. Last week it was Elizabeth. This week it's Mary and Joseph. I know. I know. We're skipping ahead of where we are on Drawing Out Advent...so if you want to go slowe…

Drawing Out Advent: Expectations 3:17

9M ago3:17

3:17

Today's episode of Drawing Out Advent is all about those folks who were waiting and hoping all those years ago and how they expected God’s messiah to come as a powerful ruler, a king, a mighty warrior who would free them and lead them out of the darkness and into a brighter future, but then God did something completely unexpected. Watch Adam Trest …

Drawing Out Advent: Assumptions 2:30

9M ago2:30

2:30

We’ll begin our story, like Luke’s, with people just like you and me who assumed a lot about who God was and what God was doing in the world. Many assumed that God would soon send someone, a messiah, and as the years passed and one never came, they could have lost hope. But they didn't. Their hope swelled. Watch Adam Trest continue to draw out the …

You've Never Read This: Speechless 14:08

9M ago14:08

14:08

Today’s episode is a bridge in many ways. It’s one more story, the last story we’ll look at it in this series of ones we overlook and avoid for a while, and it brings us nicely into the season of Advent. It’s the story of Zechariah learning he’ll soon be the father of John the Baptist. And for what it’s worth, it’s a story that will figure prominen…

Drawing Out Advent: Trailer 2:43

2:43

For years my family has used an Advent calendar to mark the days leading up to Christmas. Some have been simple countdowns and others brought to you by Lego, but we’ve always struggled to find a telling of the Christmas story to spark a conversation with our boys at the breakfast or dinner table. So I decided, I’d write one. And I want to share it …

You've Never Read This: Mind Your Business 14:10

9M ago14:10

14:10

We’re starting to wind down this series on the stories we avoid, the scriptures we don’t read in Church, and we’re staying with John’s gospel. The closing verses of it to be exact for the snark filled and strangely pointed conversation between Jesus and Peter. If you listened to last week’s episode, you know I teased more about the upcoming Advent …

You've Never Read This: Reasons for the Seasons 16:06

10M ago16:06

16:06

We’re turning back to the gospels today to a story I have absolutely no idea why we don't read in Church. The Gospel of John in particular for a little conversation between Jesus and his disciples with profound meaning for how we navigate the seasons of life. It’s going to be a bit shorter than normal (I don’t hear you complaining about that…), and…
