Your Pod and Your StaffOde to the Question-Mark Vol.2The best conversations almost always start with great questions.
The fans of Your Pod and Your Staff sent in some great questions these past few weeks, and Stanford Gibson and Peter Nittler try their best to turn them into great conversations.
At the very least, they turn them into an eclectic set of conversations. On this episode the guys talk about dinosaurs, Melchizedek, Marvel Movies, how to disagree with people well, Belly buttons, a particular College Lifer’s sense of humor, spiritual gifts, spiritual habits, and spiritual practices.
Much is discussed. But much wa...2021-05-121h 31
Your Pod and Your StaffRevelation Part 1: Macro-Jesus and the Micro-Epistles***for some helpful visuals for this pod, check out Stanford’s blog post***
Here’s a question: if you were stranded on a desert island, and you were told you can only have ONE book of the Bible during your time there – what would you choose?
There’s a lot of great choices. You wouldn’t go wrong with a Gospel, maybe Genesis or Exodus, maybe even Psalms if you’re one of those kinds of people.
But I’m assuming very few of us would choose REVELATION (Or RevelationS as Peter used to think). But...2021-03-031h 27
Your Pod and Your StaffNic Gibson: The Church is Not an AbstractionYup, you read that time right. This is a long episode. And it’s worth it! Break it up in chunks. Take a week to listen!
Is the Church even that important?
Many people are asking this question. And many people have already answered it… No. It might be nice. But it’s not necessary.
This is not a question the Scriptures are asking. The Scriptures simply assume it’s big time important. And, frankly, “important” isn’t even strong enough to capture it. Essential might be a bit better.
And yet, it doesn’...2021-02-241h 38
Your Pod and Your StaffImitation: Just Be (Better Than) Yourself - feat. Stanford Gibson and Peter NittlerI urge you, then, be imitators of me. – 1 Corinthians 4:16
Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ – 1 Corinthians 11:1
Join in imitating me – Philippians 3:17
Imitate. Imitate. Imitate.
This is Paul’s consistent drumbeat for the early followers to grow in their faith and learn to live in the Kingdom.
But how does that sit with you? Does Paul want us just to try and be like somebody else? Shouldn’t I be focusing on being the best ‘me’ I can be? Does this mean I’m not enough as I am?

Your Pod and Your StaffQuick Ques-tee-in: What do the Epistles Have to Say About Racism and Justice? (Special Guest Rick Morris with Stanford Gibson, and Peter Nittler)What do the Epistles have to say about race, racism, and justice? It’s an interesting question, and as we see from this conversation from Rick Morris, they weirdly have both nothing to say directly, but tons to say when we really hear them.
You won’t find the word “race” or “racism” in the Scriptures; but Rick helps us see that concepts like unity in Christ, the corrosiveness of unjust and arbitrary power dynamics, and the call to pursue justice for the marginalized are deeply Biblical, and deeply relevant to our response to these questions today.

Your Pod and Your Staff1 Peter: A Very Christian Episode (with Christian Wingate, Stanford Gibson, and Peter Nittler)One thing is abundantly clear about our last episode of the season – it is DEEPLY Christian.
We mean that on two levels. First, this is the Your Pod and Your Staff debut for our friend and recent alum of College Life, Christian Wingate. And you get to taste all the classic Christian Wingate flavors – deep textual thinking, niche nerdiness, and just incredible passion. We can learn a thing or two not just from Christian’s ideas – but his enthusiasm.
But it’s also deeply Christian in that the ideas discussed from 1 Peter feel like they only make...2020-12-091h 17

As far as we’re concerned, this is as good a posture as any to take when we approach the Scriptures. And on this episode Stanford Gibson and Peter Nittler do a lot of wondering together.
…I wonder what Paul meant by bad teaching?...
…I wonder what Paul meant by “everything created by God is good”?...

Bronwyn has consistently been a bastion for spiritual wisdom and affection in College Life (as anyone who has read her book Beyond Awkward Side Hugs can attest).
Perhaps when we come to a book or talk or podcast featuring someone with “spiritual wisdom”, we expect to hear some new ideas. Some new way of seeing the faith, or a particular take on a passage that will unlock some new level of spiritual insight.

Stanford, Madee, and Peter are back talking about one of the most phenomenal of Paul’s letters. And the conversation is as lovely as the letter itself.
They revisit some of the classic segments: In I Themed a Theme, they concede that “joy” is a noun; but, can we make it a verb? They look at one of the most stunning passages in the New Testament and say, “Excuse me, What?!”...2020-11-1100 min
Your Pod and Your StaffThessalonian Thoughts: The Will of God, the End of the World and Other Stuff (Stanford Gibson and Peter Nittler)Let’s talk about the end of the world.
No, we have no knowledge of how or when that will happen – sorry to disappoint! The end of the world is on the mind because we just opened up Paul’s Letter to the Thessalonians and – he seems to be pretty interested in the topic. Now, our hunch is that when most people hear eschatological (the study of End Times) talk they either get way too excited, or not sufficiently excited – and that chasm can be explained by how confusing, scary, and unreal it can often seem as we read it...2020-10-2800 min

That's James 2:26 right there. But. How can that be? Doesn’t Paul tell us that “one is justified by faith apart from works”. This seems like… a problem. Have you ever been bothered by this? Have you ever been curious about how these seemingly opposing ideas can possibly exist in the same worldview? Well, we have, too. And we’re talking about this dynamic and much more on this episode of Your Pod and Your Staff. Stanford, Peter, and newest member of the College Li...2020-10-2100 min

So why, you may ask, are we choosing to turn back the clock and revisit previous terrible times? Wouldn’t it be nicer to hear about something… happier? Strangely, in casting our eyes onto these difficult times, we see something strangely comforting: that we embody a story that is both firm and flexible, hopeful and realistic, and ultimately, strong and tested. It might not take away the acute pain you might be experiencing (and that’s very real!), but it might just take away any existential dread that’s weighi...2020-10-1400 min

We don’t believe it – at least not fully.

Aren’t they best? Can I ask you another question? How do you think we arrive at wisdom? Is it that some are born with an innate knowledge while others aren’t? Or does wisdom grow more slowly and more organically? If that’s the case, where does wisdom start? Is it possible that it often starts with… a question?

What do we think about God? That’s a distinctly different question than “who is God?” and it has massive implications for just about every aspect of our lives and how we view the world.

Maybe even something redemptive? That’s the goal of this conversation. Stanford Gibson brings the observations and Miriam Hamilton and Peter Nittler bring the questions.
