Sacred & Strange | Weird Diets and Dunk Tanks? | 6
Mar 2900:29:51Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | March 29, 2026 | AJ MasticThe Sacraments seem really gross if you stop to think about them. It’s great that Jesus died for our sins, but are we really supposed to eat his body? And why do we talk about “drowning” babies through baptism? That seems needlessly cruel and harsh.Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Mar 2200:35:06Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | March 22, 2026 | Doug MaussIf there’s one truth that seems pervasive in being a success in our culture today, it’s to never admit being wrong. Our leaders and influencers carefully maintain an image of polished confidence. So why does the church force us to publicly share our failings each week? Doesn’t that just increase anxiety and shame?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | http://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.orgWebsite | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Sacred & Strange | Throwing Your Money Away? | 4
Mar 1500:33:26Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | March 15, 2026 | AJ MasticNobody ever seems to feel like they have enough money. Even most billionaires seem unable to stop the relentless pursuit of “more.” So why does the church tell us to give some of our precious, hard-earned money away? Surely God in heaven doesn’t need our cash?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | http://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.orgWebsite | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Sacred & Strange | Singing Karaoke? | 3
Mar 800:30:03Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | March 8, 2026 | Dion GarrettWhile it’s fun to watch musical memes on social media, most people would hate to have to sing in public. So why does the church force everyone—tone deaf or otherwise—to sing weird songs in a large group?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Sacred & Strange | Seeing Hallucinations? | 2
Mar 100:34:57Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | March 1, 2026 | Doug MaussPeople who routinely talk to invisible beings are normally consigned to a psychiatric ward. Why does the church make such a big deal about talking to God? How could he possibly hear all the prayers and care about every little thing in our lives?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Sacred & Strange | Joining a Commune? | 1
Feb 2200:29:06Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | February 22, 2026 | AJ MasticWe have fewer and fewer “third spaces”—places where people gather together simply for the sake of being with one another. Even community events that used to be primarily experienced in a group (such as cheering on your local team or going to a movie) are now mainly experienced from the (isolated) comfort of our couch and big screen. So why does the church make such a big deal about gathering together every weekend?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org
Transcribe →Ash Wednesday 2026 | Sacred & Strange | Making a Scene?
Feb 1900:30:46Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | February 18, 2026 | Dion GarrettOur society has largely sterilized the process of death—offloading the care of the sick and dying onto medical professionals. We even try to keep our pain and grief hidden inside, rather than “make a scene.” So why does the church publicly and messily focus on death and lamentation?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Trail Markers | Persist in Grace | 7
Feb 1500:36:56Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | January 15, 2026 | Dion GarrettConventional wisdom says it’s a bad idea to change horses in midstream, but when it comes to Grace, the very thing that all Christians acknowledge as the means for our salvation, we seem to struggle to live by it. Unfortunately, too many churches, seeing the reality of sin in the world, abandon grace and reach for a different means to motivate and grow people. How can we both cling to grace AND grow to be more like Jesus?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org
