This week Kate and Tim talk with Brian Catlett who brings great wisdom and insight into our practice of confession. Inviting us to know the freeing power of God taking our burdens from us and receiving us with compassion and grace.

How do we cultivate gratitude for all God's blessings? Talking with Chad Thoreson [Mars Hill Kids ministry], Kate and Tim ponder the long term fruit of gratitude when it comes to helping our kids eat well and recognize all that is available to us in the Eucharist and weekly practices! Following along with the Lent Prayer Journal:  https://marshill.org/calendar-events/lent-prayer-journal Song Reference: "The Night Song" by Cityalight 

This week we dig into prayer walking and prayers of intercession as ways of following Jesus this Lent.  We hear the wisdom and witness of Macky Johnson who brings together mission, the Outward direction, prayer walking and courageous compassion. 

This week we begin to dig into our Lent Prayer Journal [http://marshill.org/prayerjournal] while special guest Nikki Grasmeyer and Psalm 32 lead us to consider two unique prayer practices. 

Kicking off a new season - Tim and Kate invite us to encounter the Living God through Ash Wednesday and this now present, Lenten season. Get a sneak peak at the season ahead [weekly episodes, guests and practices] and engage a short history of Ash Wednesday, Psalm 51 and be blessed. 

In the final episode of Advent 2022, Kate and Tim look at how Advent points us forward; looking with hope towards Christ's return.  Hope seems to be something that invites us to action, participation + gritty proximity.  More playlist recommendations and a beautiful and profound prayer practice that can go with you wherever you go this holiday season. 

It’s the third week of Advent and we are looking at Christ's coming in the present moment. We talk through the ways Christ is present to us in our lives through our encounters with His people, in our work, and through liturgical rituals as He invites us to join the story in spirit and power. We’ve also updated the playlist with our picks as well as listener recommendations. Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6Nk9CSwA22HK5DtXYo13XF?si=51Kpy4HQQsyTPsxfFV-SXw
