Episode 35: Marshall: A Podcaster turned Published author...?

Reckless Abandonment Abandoning the comforts of the world for the call of Christ. Marshall and Jordan talk about what it means to live recklessly abandoned for Jesus, and the stirring that God is doing deep within them.

We often talk about being authentic and vulnerable, but are willing to risk our image to actually do it? Living an authentic life for Christ isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it. Let’s peel back the layers and be real with one another.

In this episode Marshall and Jordan talk about the season Marshall spent writing and publishing his first book. The conversation then transitions into Marshall talking through looking for a church and the layers there are to that.

The beauty of reflection. In this episode we talk about what reflection is and the joy that comes from actively doing it. From the faithful people who’ve gone before us all to the seasons we have just walked through, reflection often keeps our eyes on the heart of Jesus with a grateful spirit. Reflect with us!

In this episode of The Bit, Nate and Jordan share stories, observations from their recent trip to Cambodia.The responsibility of naming and describing this episode was originally entrusted to our esteemed colleague, Jordan Purrington. Jordan is an exceptional person whose brilliance, generosity, and contributions to society are difficult to measure. She is busy changing lives, improving communities, and presumably being invited to speak at important conferences. We are deeply grateful that she still finds time to associate with this podcast at all. Naturally, we would never dream of allowing something as minor as her self assigned podcast responsibilities to distract her from her historic work elsewhere.That being said, it has now been two weeks. After demonstrating truly heroic levels of patience in Jordan’s process, management has made the difficult decision to complete the episode description without her.We want to be clear that Jordan remains a cherished and irreplaceable member of The Bit family. We also apologize if this description falls short of the standards Jordan would have set. Under normal circumstances, it would have been written by someone more talented, more thoughtful, and significantly less available. Unfortunately, Jordan was busy saving the world. So we did it ourselves. Please enjoy the episode, and keep Jordan in your thoughts and prayers as she continues to recover from the devastating burden of being asked to write one paragraph

In this episode we have a conversation with Pastor Jay Perillo - someone who has had a deep impact in each of our lives. Pastor Jay is on the pastoral staff team of the Chapel and also leads the young adult ministry on Tuesday nights. We spend time talking about the chaos of ministry and what it takes to stay rooted in Christ through it all - through trusting Jesus deeply and waiting on God. Jay came from a broken home and is now celebrating 20 years in ministry - his story illuminates the goodness and grace of God as he seek to glorify Him every step of the way.

In this episode, we dive into the heart of living out our faith sharing the Gospel in everyday life and embracing leadership that inspires others. We reflect on our friends as they get married and explore how faith, community, and purpose intersect in the moments that matter most.

Seasons come and they go.
