Pulpit Cafe
Two friends sit down over a cup of coffee (or tea!) and have an honest conversation about a Bible text that's given to them by the Lectionary. We approach these passages as preachers, but this conversation is for all thoughtful Christians who desire a safe, thoughtful, conversational space to consider God's beautiful words of life! Your hosts are Jin Cho and Sandy Richter, who are Anglican priests. Jin is out in Irvine, California complaining about the cold when it dips below 60, and works with Micah Groups--an initiative at the intersection of preaching, worship, and justice. Sandy is the rector (senior pastor) of Christ Our Peace Anglican in Oak Park, Illinois, a church that seeks to cultivate and embody God's peace through sacramental worship and faithful action.

The Baptism of Our Lord -- True Righteousness, What We Are Baptized Into, and Real Repentance

Season 2

Episode 3
Sandy and Jin chat over Isaiah 42:1-9 and Matthew 3:13-17 from the first Sunday after Epiphany. We get real serious as we consider why Jesus got baptized (what was he trying to tell us by doing this?) and consider all the ways in which we in the church miss what "repentance" means. Somewhere along the way, we talk about our need to return to the shalom that Jesus was calling us into, as well as how this relates to good parenting skills!
