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.

Episode 6
This was a super fun conversation, as we talk about what this detailed (and somewhat convoluted) narrative describing Jesus' raising of Lazarus teaches us about life. In his incredible conversation with Martha, we are reminded that resurrection is much more than what happens to us after we die--rather it is the power of Jesus to transform how we live now. Then, in his incredible conversation with Mary, we remember that in our darkest moments and emotions, Jesus welcomes us and weeps along with us.
