Lamentations and Ecclesiastes | Is it possible to serve God in the midst of a wicked or "worldly" environment? The story of Joseph says, "Yes." As Pastor Glenn teaches through the Joseph story, he explores questions that resonate with us about how we handle the promises God gives, the temptations we have, the adversity that befalls us, and the influence that we may gain. | 1/22/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Abiding in the Spirit, Part 1: Knowing | Have you lost your way? Often in our Christian walk we need to be reminded of what we already know. This is the first part of 3 talks moving from Knowing to Being then Doing. Spiritual practice will help us move from knowing about to knowing Him. Henri Nouwen shared that spiritual disciplines are 'not the solution but a direction.' Let's walk in the direction together of really Knowing Him. | 4/3/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Praying the Psalms | This podcast unpacks how the Psalms were used as the prayer-book as the people of God, from Israel to the early Church, and even today. We discuss the value of learning the language of prayer by praying the Psalms so that we can be in conversation with God. | 3/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Poetry and Movement of the Psalms | This class begins with an overview of the use of poetry versus prose in the Bible and why poetry plays an important role. We then discover the basic poetic elements within the Psalms, spending the most time unpacking the most common device of Hebrew poetry: parallelism. The class closes with a discussion of the movement within the Psalms, from hope to disappointment to trust and praise, by rivers, through valleys and deserts, ultimately culminating in an eruption of praise. | 3/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Genre of the Psalms | In this massive collection of 150 poems, we find a variety of 'genre,' including praise, laments, teaching, and 'enthronment' Psalms. We'll explore their distinctives and how they speak to us today. | 3/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Week 4: Inaugurated Eschatology: What Does All This Means Here and Now? | How should we live in the light of God's in-breaking future? This podcast begins with a sketch of what it means to say that the Kingdom of God has come "here and now and not yet." We then turn our attention to three verbs that help us to live within that Kingdom: we prepare, we announce, and we anticipate. Within this framework, we understand how self-giving love is the language of the future that God is bringing, and how miracles and justice-work are all ways of pointing to the Kingdom that has begun and will culminate at Christ's return. | 2/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Week 3: New Heaven and New Earth: What Does the Restoration of All Things Mean? | In this podcast, Glenn Packiam provides a Biblical framework for thinking about the New Heaven and New Earth. The narrative of Scripture is the story of Creation, Covenant, Jesus, New Covenant, and New Creation. The Creator God made a good world. The result of human sin is the fracturing of heaven and earth, of human relationship with God, and of human relationship with each other. But Gods plan of salvation is a plan to pull it all together again to make all things new. The vehicle for Gods salvation is the Covenant, specifically His covenant with Abraham. But Abrahams descendants Israel is unfaithful. Enter: Jesus. Jesus, as the seed of Abraham, remains faithful to the covenant and by suffering our death, renews the covenant; Jesus, as the Divine Co-Creator, brings about new creation through His resurrection. Through Jesus, God is faithful to His project of Creation and His promise to restore and bless it through Abrahams family. It also means that when we surrender to Christ, we become a new creation in advance of heaven and earth being made new. While we dont know much detail of the precise continuity and discontinuity between this heaven and this earth and new heaven and new earth, we suspect that like Jesus physical body that passed through death and was transformed, this earth and heaven will experience a death of judgment and then be made new: the same materials reconstituted with new properties. | 2/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Week 2: Bodily Resurrection: What Happens When We Die? | Pastor Glenn discusses the significance of Jesus' bodily resurrection as the firstfruit of those who die in Christ. He then discusses what we know from Scripture about the state of believers who die. Correcting some popular but unbiblical notions along the way, this session explores the significance of what it means to "look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come". | 2/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Week 1: More than Heaven: What is the End Goal? | Pastor Glenn reframes "Eschatology" around the question "What will God do in the end?" instead of "When will the end come?" After a quick explanation of the Book of Revelation as apocalyptic literature instead of prophetic literature-- and the difference that makes-- Glenn then unpacks the Jewish vision of hope in the 1st century and how the Christian picture redefined that vision around Jesus the crucified and risen Messiah. | 2/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Practice of Sabbath, Silence, and Solitud | It's hard for us to be alone, and yet Jesus frequently withdrew to "lonely places" to pray. It's hard for us to keep the Sabbath, and yet there are specific ways that the Sabbath "keeps us". It's hard to be silent, to not pray to not ask, to not talk. Yet it is in the silence that God often speaks. | 11/21/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Practice of Fasting | Going without food doesn't sound like a good idea and definitely not any fun, so why would Jesus say that His followers will fast? This Sunday we will unpack the value of fasting, the role it plays in the life of a believer, and how it teaches and trains us. We will cover both practical and spiritual dynamics to this ancient discipline. | 11/14/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Practice of Prayer | What is the purpose of prayer? Is it to change things or to change us or both? How does prayer combine elements of both intercession and intimacy? | 11/7/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

What is God's Single, Sovereign, Saving Plan? | Every religion has a way of describing the human situation and the future or ideal goal of all things. But what is the Christian story? How do we account for the goodness and the evil in humans and in the world? And what is God's plan with all of it? We'll unpack the broad strokes of "soteriology"--the theology of salvation--and its implications for the whole cosmos. | 10/17/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

21 |
Why is the Belief in the Trinity Central to Christianity? | Many of us know that the Christian view of God is a God who is "three-in-one." Few of us know why this belief is core to our faith and what its implications are on our everyday living. We'll uncover how the Trinity is not so much a concept to be explained but a reality to be lived into. | 10/3/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

22 |
How Can I Study the Bible and Apply it? | We'll discuss a basic plan for studying the Bible in a way that every layperson can engage in by using with three phases of study--observation, interpretation, and application--and a few basic tools. You'll learn how to avoid many common mis-readings and misinterpretations of Scriptures and how to enter the Scriptures, and, by the Holy Spirit, let the Scriptures "enter you." | 9/26/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

How Was the Bible Put Together? | The Biblical canon of scripture is our best window into the truth of God. Often, we are confused and led into believing misconceptions about how these books were formed and then standardized. On this Sunday we will talk about the story, and importance of how God used His church to form Scripture and why the canon is the best window into the truth of God. | 9/19/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

What is the Bible About? | There are many well-intentioned, but misguided approaches to the Bible. Some imagine it a rule book with laws; others see it as a sort of cook book with recipes for success and health; still others treat it like a textbook full of facts and ideas to be memorized. In this class we will explore the Big Story of the Scriptures, and uncover the single, sovereign, saving plan of God. | 9/12/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
