In this episode, we explore a powerful image of the cross as a raft drawn from James K.A. Smith’s On the Road with Saint Augustine. We reflect on how God doesn’t send us a battleship or a cruise liner to cross the ocean between where we are and where we long to be—but a rough, wooden raft in the shape of a cross. It’s uncomfortable, vulnerable, and splintered—but it keeps our eyes fixed on home. Join us as we consider the cost of self-reliance, the illusion of comfort, and the invitation to surrender control to the One who can carry us safely to shore.
Purchase On The Road With St. Augustine by James K. A. Smith on Amazon or directly from the publisher.
