ABOUT THIS EPISODE
How do we hear God's voice in the midst of so many competing messages? This is the critical question explored in this week's lectionary readings and discussed by your hosts Fr. Nathaniel and Jim McNeely.
Drawing on Deuteronomy 18:15–22, Psalms 111, 1 Corinthians 8, and the Gospel of Mark 1:21-28, they reflect on our human longing for guidance and security, and why false prophets can seem more appealing than the simple message of Christ crucified. Jim offers profound insights into the real tragedy of false prophecy, and they discuss how the early church navigated relating to misguided believers.
Living in the freedom of Christ while remaining wise towards those still in bondage is an ancient dilemma that continues to challenge Christians today. Join us for a thought-provoking dialogue on discernment, true freedom, and living by Jesus' authority even amidst confusion. You'll come away better equipped to hear God's voice above the noise.
