WovenLament in 2020Next week is Thanksgiving, and while it's been a hard year for all; we also know we have so much to be grateful for even in difficult times. But, before we can truly experience hope, praise and gratitude, we have to learn how to grieve and lament. This week we discuss what defines Christian lament, the difference between lament and complaining, and what we are each lamenting right now. We pray that while it's an intense topic, we will all learn the prayer language of lament so we can more deeply experience gratitude. From us to you, Happy Thanksgiving!2020-11-1753 min

WovenElection ReflectionWe are one week out from Election Day! For some of us, this thought brings excitement and energy, for others this thought brings dread and despair. We all know we are called to fulfill our civic responsibilities, but what really is the Christian's role in politics and political discourse? No matter the outcome of the election, how can we be filled with grace and hope as we live in community and love our neighbor? We, here at Woven, do not have it all figured out, but instead are on our own journeys of learning what it means to be...2020-10-271h 13

WovenLent 2020: Numbing OutThis week we wrap up our Lent series with a discussion of the idols we've created in our lives that help us numb out and distract us from reality. As we said last week, these episodes were recorded before social distancing became a thing, and we recognize that we're all in need of grace right now as we navigate our new realities. We are all numbing out in various ways, and that is OKAY. But, we also think this discussion is still relevant in many ways as we grapple with this new way of life.

WovenLent 2020: Gold StarsWe are continuing in our Lent study this week. We recorded these episodes before Covid-19 really took root in the US, and we know most of us have probably suspended our Lenten fasts during this time, but we also believe that in times like these, we truly learn the idols our hearts are attached to and how we need God even more as they are revealed.

WovenLent 2020: American IdolsContinuing in our Lent series on idols, we explore 3 American idols- marriage/romance, parenting and politics. We know those aren't the only idols we struggle with as a culture, but we know they can be some of the biggies. We also know these can be subtle idols. On the surface, none of them are bad or sinful, but when they take the place of God as our object of worship or control, that's when they can cross into unhealthy territory. Thankfully, God's grace is abundant as we struggle to put these idols in their proper place. -------------------------------------------------------------2020-03-1050 min

WovenLent 2020: The Big 3This week, continuing in our Lent series, we discuss the top 3 most obvious sins and idols that show up in our lives- Sex, Money and Power.

Most of what we discuss this week comes from our study of Tim Keller's book, Counterfeit Gods.

For our last episode in this series, we discuss the names Lion and Lamb. While these names seem to be contradictory, we discuss how they both work in tandem to give us a fuller picture of Jesus' true nature.

What does it mean that Jesus is both God and man, both divine and human? Also, what does this mean to us, right now, as Christians in the 21st century? It's a hard topic, but a great one to meditate on this Advent season. --------------------------------------------------------------------------Want to be apart of the Woven Patreon community?
