  • The Branding of the Heart: The Divine Commodity Pt. 3
    Jun 21 2022

    The guys are back to discuss chapter 3 of "The Divine Commodity:" called "The Branding of the Heart." 

    In this episode, Justin and Chris talk about how this one chapter truly opened their eyes to what has been going on in our churches for the past century.  A lot has taken place to further the brand of church rather than the ministry of church and this chapter illuminates it brilliantly. 

    We both are blown away by what Jethani says in chapter 3, and we will be too. 

    If you have not done so yet, please pick up this book and read it because we are continually finding new things that stick out as we discuss it more in our episodes.

  • The Canvas of Silence: The Divine Commodity pt. 2
    May 6 2022

    As the guys continue in their discussion of the book "The Divine Commodity" by Skye Jethani, they seek to bring attention to the new ways that this book has caused them to think about the church.  This chapter focused on the ways that we as Christians tend to fill the times of silence with other things.  Justin and Chris also take a hard look at a study that was depicted called Moralistic Therapeutic Deism.  According to this study, these are the ways that the average American teenager sees religion.  The results of this study were very eye opening.

  • The Divine Commodity: Introduction and Chapter 1
    Apr 5 2022

    Chris and Justin take some time to begin discussing a book they both read which has left a lasting impression on each of them.
     
    "The Divine Commodity " by Skye Jethani has really grasped our minds and put them through the metaphorical gauntlet by causing us to think about how Consumer Christianity has taken control of our churches across the globe. 

    In this episode, the guys try to wrap their heads around some of the things that Skye is getting at when he states that we have a real issue with commodifying the church.  This is in ways that we would never conceive but can plainly see now that our eyes have been illuminated.  Skye's desire is to wake up the church to recognize how it has effected our congregations over the past 40-50 years.   

    We encourage everyone to go out and grab this book and read along with us because we plan to release an episode discussing each of the chapters in the coming weeks.

    You can pick up Skye's book here.
