The End of the Charade
4w ago00:40:27Tap to summarizeSunday May 10, 2026 At the heart of Christian unity sits a lifestyle of confession. We cannot connect with one another meaningfully if we are pretending to be someone we are not. Dan Kent shows us what biblical confession is, what it is not, and then points us toward practical steps to move into honest confession.

Transcribe →Disarming the Algorithm
Apr 2700:38:25Tap to summarizeSunday April 26, 2026 In a world that promotes judgment, division and isolation, Dan Kent looks at Paul's command to "bear with each other." Living in love does not mean only embracing those who are easy to love. Real love calls us to embrace those who require patient endurance. In this way, we reflect the love of the cross.

Transcribe →Learning to Love the Church
Mar 2300:41:46Tap to summarizeSunday, March 22, 2026 Dan Kent draws our attention to the words "my people" in Revelation 18:4. When we enter relationship with the Father through Jesus, we are also entering into a collective which is traditionally called the Church. Dan identifies two obstacles to loving the church. The first is hypocrisy. The second obstacle to loving the church is diversity that results in division. Dan provides some ways to address these two obstacles in a direct way. However, there is more going on beneath the surface. Dan then guides us to think deeper about what is driving these obstacles.

Transcribe →Love is Not Proud
Sep 2900:44:54Tap to summarizeSeptember 28, 2025 Dan Kent introduces the problem of pride and how it is rooted in hierarchical systems where we measure ourselves against others.

Transcribe →The Way of Generosity
Aug 100:44:16Tap to summarizeJuly 21, 2025 God calls us to the way of generosity and Dan Kent shows how this call is much larger than a set of rules for how we use our money.
