Description

In our latest episode of "Readings from the Cheap Seats," we explore the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll discover:

The significance of Jesus' baptism and its impact on identity and mission. Insights from Isaiah, Psalms, and Acts on servitude and justice. How baptism calls us to live as part of a larger family and embrace our beloved status in God's eyes.

Join us for a thoughtful journey into the heart of Christian life and the radical call to gentleness in a world often driven by noise and chaos.
