We begin a new series on salvation.

It’s a word that can feel outdated, divisive, or misused. Yet beneath the discomfort, the human question remains: What saves us? What saves a culture? What saves us from ourselves?

In this opening episode, Patrick and Jonah revisit salvation through the movement of the liturgical year and through lived experience. They explore the difference between true Light and false light, the danger of coercive religion, and the possibility that the image of God already lives within the human being.

Through scripture, biography, and contemporary reflections on technology and AI, the conversation suggests that salvation has not disappeared — it has migrated. The longing for rescue persists, even if the language has changed.

This episode sets the stage for the series to come.
