The Unbroken Ground

The Unbroken Ground

What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus? The Unbroken Ground Podcast explores ways to follow Jesus. Sometimes answers are presented and sometimes the episode ends with more questions than answers. Just like following Jesus, producing this podcast is a journey - one I hope you will join and invite others to participate in.

Wake me up when September ends. We almost didn't make September, but we did. Another rambling, stumbling chat with Jim, this time in September.

It's two sides of the same coin. We are saved from something, and we are saved for something. We have majored in being saved from something, and unfortunately, we have also minored in being saved for something.

It is hard to reconcile the fact that someone can preach the gospel of Jesus and have speech filled with hate. But it happens all the time. Finding Jesus does not mean that we will immediately have the correct thought. Most of us are stuck in our culture, and we are products of our community. And sometimes we don't even realize that there is a problem until we meet someone who makes us reevaluate. Jesus was constantly making people...

Last week, it was fruit; this week, it's seeds. Planting some ideas, hopefully.

Thinking and talking through Galatians 5. What kind of fruit are you producing?

I talk about three artists/creative people who help me work on loss, lament, and finding hope. I will always recommend listening to their music/reading their books/seeing them live whenever you can.

If you are a follower of Christ, then you are called to participate in Kingdom work and growth. Jesus calls us to be faithful with what we have been given. And you have been placed precisely where you are for such a time as this. So let's get out there! We got work to do.

 What rhythm have you developed for yielding to Jesus? We often seek guidance on big questions like career, marriage, college, and where to live, but what about finding ways to say yes and yield to God's will daily?

I saw a post on Threads this week that stated: "Yes, Jesus hung out with sinners. But He also told them to go and sin no more. Let's not forget to do that part." And wow, do I have thoughts. What if the main invitation we offered to people was not "Come and see Sunday Morning Worship," but "Come and walk with me"?

Imagine being in a magical restaurant where you can order any dish you've ever wanted. What would your starter, main course, side dish, and dessert be? Can Paul and Callie guess the other person's selections? This one is a little more lighthearted than previous chats, and it is a lot of fun. Don't listen hungry, though!

Regardless of the circumstances, challenges, or difficulties you experience, one response is always available. Count your blessings. Find what you can be thankful for.

Callie joins me once again and we talk about the next stage of treatment that she went through. Radiation was probably the worst 5 days of the whole journey for Callie (spoiler - she is still recovering from the trauma).

Following Jesus takes practice. Every day is another day you have to get closer. Even when you're not quite where you want to be. David was anointed king, but he had a long time before he sat on the throne. What is God preparing you for?

No Jim in June, so Callie is stepping. And because it has been a big part of our journey this past year, we are going to talk about Callie finding out she had cancer. And the early stages of treatment - and how we dealt with it. This is part one of a series we will do until we tell the whole story!

I thought about alternatively titling this one, "Tips for Wilderness Survival". I think we tend to think poorly of the Israelites who were wandering in the wilderness. How dare they doubt that God would provide daily manna, we think to ourselves, as we check our 401 (k) and savings account. We almost sell the idea that abundance comes with salvation. But we really should sell the fact that contentment comes with salvation, whether ...

Why do followers of Jesus go through trials, sickness, and other tribulations? If you listen to some Christian music or watch movies, you might get the impression that life with Christ is full of rainbows and sunshine. However, the truth is that many of God's most dedicated followers faced the most difficult trials. Should we expect anything less in our journeys?

Season 3 is starting up, just about a year from when Season 2 ended. ...
