Perspectives Podcast Season 2, Episode 9: Everyday Saints – You and Me
Nov 03, 2024
Summary
Join Rev. Hannah and Rev. Brittany for this episode of Perspectives Pastors Podcast, as they wrap up the multi-episode of Everyday Saints. This time, they turn the examination inward, pulling inspiration from Paul’s words in Romans 12:9-12. As Rev. Hannah notes, on the surface level, this scripture feels very generic. But once you dig in and apply it to our Western ideals, there is a lot we can start to glean from the text – especially as you consider how we tend to apply God’s grace and love.

The discussion is all about turning away from our natural instinct to be in competition with each other and instead focusing on caring for each other. When approaching the scripture from a communal context, you’re able to focus on the greater good of the community – including the so-called “black sheep.”
We invite you to continue this exploration by connecting with others through our weekly Convergence discussion groups, which meet in person, as you consider these questions:
- What does genuine love feel like to you?
- How do you honor those around you?
- What work of God are you enthusiastic about participating in?
