Witnesses - When Crisis Comes

What does Jesus give himself to in moments of crisis? This week, we visit the Garden of Gethsemane through the eyes of Peter, James, and John as they watch Jesus turn to people, place, and prayer in his time of great grief and distress. 

Lent Audio Meditation - Gethsemane

In this audio meditation, we meet Jesus and the disciples on the Mount of Olives and bear witness to the hours leading to his night-time arrest. What was it like for the disciples to watch Jesus pray in anguish, and what was it like for Jesus when his friends could no longer manage to stay awake to pray with him? How might God’s grace meet us in the details of this story with both conviction and encouragement?

Witnesses - Mirrors

What do we do with a mirror that reflects to us the truth of who we really are? Do we destroy the mirror? Avoid it? Or do we behold the mirror and all that it reveals? This week, Jordan focuses our attention on the ways Judas experienced Jesus to be such a mirror, and invites us to consider the ways that we might be tempted to respond to Jesus in the same ways that Judas did. 

Lent Audio Meditation - The Last Supper

In this audio meditation, we approach the table as Jesus and the disciples share their last meal together before his arrest. What might it have been like for the disciples witnessing the Lord prophesy his imminent betrayal, then break bread and share it as a picture of his body about to be broken? What gift of encouragement might this scene hold for you?

Witnesses - Peter's Mistake

At Jesus’s arrest, Peter swings his sword to defend his rabbi, but Jesus rebukes him. What has gone wrong? This week, Abby draws us in to Peter’s story, explores the theme of discernment, and invites us to consider where God’s grace is waiting for us at the intersection of Peter’s story and our own.

Lent Audio Meditation - Jesus Enters Jerusalem

In this audio meditation, we consider Jesus's entry to Jerusalem and the behind-the-scenes work of acquiring a donkey. What were these moments like for the disciples? What about for the crowds? What do you notice about Jesus as you slow down with the details and enter the story?

February 23, 2025 - Seasons

In this week's podcast, Adam reflects on the many seasons of life (from the book of Ecclesiastes). Then, Adam shares about the exciting season ahead in his life and in the life of Church at the Well. 

Everyone Who Has Ears Let Them Hear - Week Six

Listening in Community
We know of the listening relationship Jesus has with the Father. We know that Jesus exists in listening community. But what does that mean for us, and for our community? This week, Jordan continues our series, "Everyone Who Has Ears Let Them Hear," with a few ways Jesus uses community to shape our hearing. 

Everyone Who Has Ears Let Them Hear - Week Five

Listening is Giving
When Jesus healed the woman who had bled for twelve years, he stopped to listen to her story. As we seek to become more like Jesus, what role does listening play in living a Kingdom life? What can we draw from this story about how to listen well to others as a sign of God’s love?

Everyone Who Has Ears Let Them Hear - Week Four

What does a "listening life" look like in a world that seems determined to minimize margin in our lives? This week, Jordan continues our series, "Everyone Who Has Ears, Let Them Hear," with a look at three marks of a listening life from the book of Matthew.
