  • Stories of Aspiration with Steve Horswill-Johnston
    2024/10/23
    You know that feeling when you go back to your elementary school and the place seems to have shrunk? This week, Rev. Steve Horswill-Johnston returns to his first pastoral appointment out of seminary. In the 30 years since he served as Associate Pastor at Church of the Good Shepherd, he has become a guru of communications for United Methodists. He crafted the Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors campaign, served as a consultant at Dreamworks Studios, won multiple Emmys for his work as a filmmaker, and is now the COO for Claremont School of Theology. Rev. HoJo reflects on aspirations that lead to action, sea changes that leave us feeling uncertain, and how the act of planting seeds in others' lives binds us together.

  • No Pretending with Jessie Connor
    2024/10/15
    By Rev. Jessie Connor's own admission, the topic of her last sermon makes her cringe. "Piety" is not a positive word for her, bringing up images of people who pretend to be better than others. And yet, being pious is a core United Methodist value. Pastor Jessie helps us see that piety really just means "living together in loving community," something we all want. So how do we live together in love? It's not about showy-offy behaviors; it's about personal reflection and quiet growth, bumping along together, and buoying each other through life. Join our conversation, where Pastor Jessie shows us that loving community involves pitching old couches, releasing control over the mic, and learning to roller skate.

  • Finding More with Austin Adkinson
    2024/10/09
    This week I talk with Rev. Austin Adkinson from Light of the Hill United Methodist Church in Puyallup, Washington. Jesus tells his followers that if your hand or foot is causing you to sin, cut it off. What? This is not a recommendation for hasty amputations, but instead an encouragement to go beyond your first reaction to things, to be more thoughtful, deliberate, and wise about your attitudes and actions. In our world of hot takes and comment section take downs, it would be great if we could move past our worst thoughts so that our best thoughts are what guide us.
