Micah Podcast: The Heart Of The Matter

Why is one picture worth a thousand words?  How can God communicate so powerfully with images?  What are some of your Holy Doodles?

Here is another potentially divisive topic. Is beer good? Is beer bad? Does God care one way or another? Whose view does God support? How do we live with disparate understandings?

Look! It's a ferret. Wow. We love our pets. We spend lots of time, money, and effort on them. What's up with that? How do our animals help and detract from our spiritual lives?

Wow, this looks like a bummer.  We hate traffic don't we!  How does this phenomenon help or hinder our spiritual life?  Wait in traffic for a few hours (or listen) to find out.

The light is changing in our northern climes! And check out how the light changes as you listen to the podcast. Trey is sick this week so Debra joins us for a reflection on this topic. The progress of the lightening of our world is much like progress in the spiritual realm.

Wow, we've been doing this for a year! What does this fact call to mind in terms of how ministry is done? How do we discern God's calling? Can all ministry be this fun?

Coffee, coffee, we love coffee! Well, a lot of people do anyway. So what does all this java chugging say about us and our spiritual lives? Do we really need to be on a perpetual caffeine high?

We love being organized. Well, sometimes we like being disorganized. Chaos and organization seem to be complementary aspects of reality. Should we always hold chaos at bay? Can we be too organized? Let's find out.

This is me on a bad hair day. Wow. What's up with our obsession with hair? Our hair is such a big deal. What if we spent as much time on our relationship with God as we did on our hair?

Depression is a very serious issue that effects millions of people. How might this condition be seen from the perspective of the spiritual life? What does this epidemic tell us about society? How does God help us get through, rather than avoid, these dark times?

We sleep much of our lives. Often we don't get enough sleep. What's going on when we are so tired much of the time? Shouldn't we get enough rest? Does an exhausted population run the risk of never noticing God?

We invite you to listen and hear more about how you might journey with us for a year and enter into a more healthy relationship with yourself, your neighbor, and your God. Learn More: http://www.micahprays.org/health-center/year-long.htm
