In this special Thanksgiving edition of JourneyNOW, Chase Ezell talks with host Suzie Lind about discovering Journey during the pandemic and now hosting monthly dinner gatherings of The Table. What he’s learned in the gospel according to Chase: Don’t be afraid and just show up. Every month, Journey people gather around tables to share a meal together. Though it can feel intimidating to show up at someone’s house for dinner, we think it’s the best way for strangers to become friends. Join us on December 5th by visiting journeytn.com/events to register.

The Holy Spirit has been the least discussed—and most misunderstood—of God’s three persons. Not just a secret power or a Funky Phantom, the promise of the Holy Spirit is more about presence with us than anything He does.
As we explore this topic in a new series, the Journey NOW roundtable crew asks what it means to have the presence of the Holy Spirit in our daily lives. How does it look to have strength in our weakness?

In a recent Sunday gathering, we practiced naming
the people and groups toward whom we hold contemptuous judgment. God transforms our hearts when we are honest before Him, and He can empower us to love and stay in relationship with some of the
people we whom we most disagree. On this special Journey Now episode, Suzie Lind talks with Lamont Turner. He shares his story growing up in the predominately white community of
Franklin, Tenn. and building bridges with people to move the Kingdom and our communities forward.

What do we miss–and who do we marginalize–when we misread the Bible? In a recent Sunday gathering, we learned how scripture describes the Church as a radical restructuring of the ideal Roman household and society. This week’s Journey NOW roundtable panel asks what it means to live out that ideal. And, they reflect on the damage caused when famous passages such as Ephesians 5 are read as instructions for Christian families instead of as a model for the Church.
