Theology Thursday’s team of pastors–Kevin Dixon, Mike Erre and Suzie Lind–discuss the body of Christ. It’s all people of faith in all cultures over all time (not Universalism). So, how does that diversity square with the idea of unity? Got comments or questions? Text us at (615) 861-9503 and join the conversation.

Kevin Dixon, Suzie Lind, Tim Timmons and Mike Erre dig deeper into our new understanding of the parable of the soils. Last Sunday, we learned about Jesus’ original intention for the story. (Hint: It’s not about us.) If you haven’t heard that message yet, you can listen here.
Plus: Mike breaks a sweat, Kevin explains the 1970s (again) and chaos ensues when Suzie says, “Follow me.”

Recently, the Journey community gathered for its first-ever Theology Lounge event, also affectionately known as “Hell In A Bar.” Thanks to a donated space by Mill Creek Brewery, more than 100 of us came together to hear Teaching Pastor Mike Erre explain the main theories about Hell: What does the Bible actually have to say? How important is the subject of Hell in the Bible, and why does it describe it in such different terms than the red-devils-with-pitchforks-and-fire image of popular culture?
After Mike’s review, all–ahem–heck broke loose in a free-flowing, hour-plus Q&A session.
Before leaving for this week’s staff retreat, Suzie Lind, Kevin Dixon, and Rob Gonzalez gathered around our JourneyNOW roundtable to reflect on what they learned in Journey’s inaugural Theology Lounge. They shared their own views and to answered more hellishly difficult listener questions.

PODCAST
Journey welcomed 2023 with a unique gathering last Sunday. Instead of the typical rows of seats arranged to listen to a pastor’s message, we welcomed people to tables set for breakfast and conversation. If you want to know the vision of Journey, that’s it: We seek to be a community where all are welcome, hospitality is extended and we know each other deeply as we seek to know Jesus together.
On this special episode JourneyNOW host Kevin Dixon welcomes Mike Erre and Suzie Lind to talk more about Journey’s vision. A listener asks how our belief that “all are welcome at the table” squares with 1 Corintians 5:11, in which Paul warns a church not to “associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister[fn] but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.”
So, which is it? Are we all welcome or not?

Also: Kevin goes dark on a candy challenge, Mike shows off his magic moves and Suzie and Tim spill the tea on this week’s staff Christmas party.

In this week’s Gathering, we looked at Babylon not just as a specific kingdom but as a repeating archetype of kingdom power. That sparked plenty of questions for our JourneyNOW roundtable panel of Mike Erre, Suzie Lind, Tim Timmons and Kevin Dixon. Can we apply that archetype to our own world and cultures? And, how do we live in exile in those cultures as people who are centered on Jesus?
Plus: Bad theories on the secrets of Suzie’s success; Kevin brings back Ocean Pacific style; Mike’s best quality is just not being so bad; and Tim tries to remember where he is.
