It’s the final episode in the Lenten series. Cursed and left to die, Jesus is left out on a limb, left high and dry. Three years of Jesus’ life, how quickly his disciples forget his messages, his miracles, his Messiahship. Not one volunteers to be a character witness, to testify to his goodness. With the religious elite, the government and crowd participation, they are all complicit. Jesus reveals the intimate, communal, and systemic betrayal of those around him and what they are faithful to. Body nailed down and framed on a cross, refusing to give in to the temptation to deceive and be deceived, Jesus beat the system.
Rev. Starlette Thomas is your podcast pastor and host of “The Raceless Gospel” podcast series from Good Faith Media. This Lenten podcast will release seven Wednesday episodes starting February 22, 2023.
“Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3,” the series is named for the three temptations of Jesus in the wilderness: bake sale for Satan, sky dive if you are who you say you are, and all these kingdoms can be yours for the low, low price of Satanic worship.
Each episode aims to get your attention. The Lenten podcast series offers a reminder that we, Christians, must have “ears to hear” what the Spirit is saying, namely that one’s calling comes with testing.
It’s not quite season four of the podcast but we’re getting close. We’ll walk with Jesus during his times of testing and be assured that we are in good company when we experience our own.
"The Raceless Gospel" podcast is produced by Good Faith Media, headquartered in Norman, Oklahoma.
"Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3" is written and produced by Starlette Thomas, and edited by Demetrius Sadler. Music by Infraction.
Release Date: April 5, 2023
