Bible Study with Cindy and Darick

Episode 13: Romans 12 Continued

Join us as we talk more about Romans 12 and the counter-cultural call of the Christian life.

Episode 12: Romans 12

Today, we move on to a new section of Romans, as Paul begins to talk about more practical applications for the Christian community in Rome. One of our cats interrupts in the middle when he knocks all of our recording equipment over.

Episode 11: Romans 9-11 (Part 2)

Today, we continue to discuss Romans 9-11, and Paul's conclusions that yes, in fact, God will always be faithful to his covenant with the people known as "Israel." 

St. Marks - Sunday Sermon for 4.18.21 on The Resurrected But Still Crucified Christ

When Jesus appears to his disciples after the resurrection, the wounds of the crucifixion are still visible. What does it mean for us that the resurrected Christ is still the crucified Christ?

St. Marks - Sunday Sermon for 4.11.21 on Doubting Thomas

In these week's sermon, we ask, "can doubt actually be a good thing?" Spoiler alert: yes it can!

Theology Thursday with Vicar Derek Kubilus on QAnon and Christianity

Join us for this episode of Theology Thursday as we discuss the the distorted Christian theology that is central to the QAnon movement with Vicar Derek Kubilus, a United Methodist pastor, friend, and the creator of the Cross Over Q podcast, a podcast dedicated to understanding the QAnon movement and healing the rift that it has caused between so many in our country today.

Episode 10: Romans 9-11 (part 1)

Today, we begin our discussion about Romans 9-11, where Paul wrestles with the question, "what about Israel?" We discuss the necessity to read these chapters all together in order to correctly understand what Paul is saying - to pluck random verses out of these chapters leads (and has led) to bad, anti-semitic theology with dangerous, real-life implications.

Episode 9: Romans 8

In this episode on Romans 8, we talk about flesh and spirit and the problematic dichotomy that tempts many of us, we talk about the relationship of sin and creation, and we talk about Cindy's favorite verses in all of Romans: 8:28-39.

Theology Thursday with Rev. Brad Davis on the Blair Mountain and the Holler Gospel

Tune in for our conversation with Rev. Brad Davis, our friend and colleague who pastors in the southern coal fields of WV. We talk about a significant moment in WV history - the Battle of Blair Mountain. "What does that have to do with theology?" you might ask. Surprisingly, a lot!

Episode 8: Romans 7

Today, as we look at Romans 7, we attempt to find language to talk about our relationship to sin - and like Paul, we find it very difficult, so we resort to coming up with metaphors. Do our metaphors work? You decide!
