Ep 41: (GH) Let the Pros Handle It

Can ordinary Christians help one another become more like Jesus? In this Greenhouse discussion, Brian Fisher and Kyle Moody continue the conversation from Episode 40 by exploring the relationship between discipleship, church institutions, and Christian community. Together they wrestle with questions surrounding authority, mentorship, personal responsibility, and the role of the local church in spiritual formation. The discussion examines the Kingdom of God as the foundation of discipleship and considers whether modern Christians have become overly dependent on institutions, programs, and professional leaders for their spiritual growth. Along the way, Brian and Kyle explore the value of courageous curiosity, the importance of wrestling with difficult questions, and why intentional communities may be one of the most powerful environments for becoming more like Jesus.

Ep 141: (GH) The Most Important Thing About Us: Our Hidden Ideas About God

Dr. Tim comes loaded with rich and probing questions about our ideas of God in this Greenhouse episode of the Soil & Roots podcast (expanding on Episode 140).
