Peter and Stanford are joined by a brilliant guest this week: Bronwyn Lea!
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.
In this episode, we think you will find deep “spiritual wisdom”, but it’s decidedly not in some new idea, but rather in returning to the most basic of Christian ideas: the reality and sufficiency of Jesus Christ.
Bronwyn helps us see that to read Colossians is really to be led back to the basics. So Peter, Stanford, and Bronwyn discuss how this plays out: what does it mean to be “in Christ”? How does simple trust in Jesus interact with the passage in Col. 3 that seems to implicate believers to do stuff? What does Paul’s particular metaphorical language tell us about the nature of Christian growth? And how does hope dictate our ethics? In other words, how do our thoughts about the future dictate how we live today?
We think (and hope!) that, through listening to this episode, you’ll be enlivened by the beauty of the basics!
Enjoy the pod!
