S2E29: The Places Love Will Take You: A Conversation with Jane Register

July 03, 2026

Jane Register has spent her life saying "yes" to the places and people that many people avoid. From working in the inner city to relationships with ex-convicts, refugees, and Christians who have been persecuted, her life is a reminder that following Jesus has always meant moving toward others. This conversation is about discovering that some of the deepest work God does in us happens as we move toward the people the world is most likely to overlook.

S2E28: Sabbath: Trusting God Enough to Stop with Benji Horning

June 26, 2026

What if Sabbath is about far more than taking a day off? In this second conversation with Benji Horning, we explore the ancient practice of Sabbath as a way of resisting hurry, rediscovering trust, and creating space to hear the voice of God even in the midst of the noise of modern life. Along the way, we discuss the wisdom of the Desert Fathers, the radical vision of Jubilee, and why spiritual formation is ultimately about becoming more like Christ for the sake of others.
