St. Croix ChurchIt is Good to See YouThis Sunday Bradley Jersak shared a beautiful message with us: When we see each other with the “eyes of flesh,” we’re prone to all sorts of mistaken judgments. And when we see the world through “eyes of flesh,” we become overwhelmed and hopeless because we’re blinded to God’s everywhere presence and the beauty and love and light available all the time. But when we learn to “see with our hearts,” it’s as if the world is transfigured and those around us are precious beacons of light and hope. And how’s this for a future: “And every eye will see h...2025-04-2723 min

Christian Universalism (the idea that God will save everyone and the earth somehow in the end) is one theory of atonement that theologians have discussed for centuries. Though the idea of universal reconciliation was the most prominent atonement theory among early Christ followers, after around the 4th century multiple atonement theories began to surface.

The TMP PodcastOur Father | Bradley Jersak | And When You PrayJesus opens his prayer with the words “our Father who is in heaven”. “Our” reminds us that we pray not as isolated individuals but with the communion of the saints. Curiously, all of Jesus’ prayers, except his cry of dereliction (Mt 27:46), begin with “Father.” Of all the titles we use to refer to God, Jesus invites his disciples into his own familial relationship with the Father. However, the word “father” is a loaded term for those who have had broken relationships with their earthly fathers. We can tend to project our meaning of what fatherhood is onto Jesus’ understanding of the Heavenly Fath...2023-05-0836 min
A Pilgrimage of Unfolding GraceBrad JersakAlongside the shift from mono- to poly-culture as a norm in contemporary society comes the common story of drift from one room in the Christian household to another. It is becoming increasingly rare that someone is born into a particular faith tradition and stays there until they die. There is an increased awareness of the other ways of approaching faith within the Christian family, in part spurred by our recognition of one denomination's limitations in encapsulating the whole Christian faith, and often from a disillusionment in those limitations or potentially damaging beliefs and practices.

Deconstruction is everywhere. People are doing it. Some leaders are fighting it. Some people are excited by it. Some people are terrified of it. Is it just a trendy new word for leaving the church? No. It’s a process that’s necessary for spiritual maturity–and how we think about it matters.

Many of us understand God as being truly loving and good. But what do we do with depictions of God in Scripture as wrathful, violent, and genocidal.

Beginning with a fiery valley outside ancient Jerusalem called Gehenna and ending with Revelation’s new creation imagery, this episode traces a surprising continuity through the biblical arc: hell as exile rather than divine torture.
