Ep 115: How Did I Get Here? (GH)

What is the difference between doing what Jesus did and being like Jesus? In this Greenhouse episode, Brian, Handsome Kyle, and Doc continue the conversation from Episode 114, the launch of Season 6: The Object of Our Formation. Season 6 explores who Jesus really is and what qualities we should expect to develop as we become more like Him. The conversation begins by revisiting the Soil & Roots journey so far: the Great Omission, the Three Primary Problems, deep discipleship, hidden ideas, the Formation Gap, the Forgotten Kingdom, and the Discipleship Dilemma. But instead of staying focused on the problems, this season turns toward the ultimate answer: Jesus Himself. Brian, Handsome Kyle, and Doc wrestle with two core questions for the season. First, what is the difference between being like Jesus and simply doing Christian things? Spiritual formation is not merely a checklist of actions, habits, service projects, or sermon applications. The goal is not just to imitate Jesus externally, but to be formed from the inside out so that we increasingly think, relate, love, and respond like Him.

Being like Jesus

As we launch further into Season 6, Doc and Handsome Kyle rejoin Brian for the first Greenhouse episode of the season.

We are spending this season exploring what it means to think, act, relate, and love like Jesus. The guys briefly review the path we’ve taken to get here so far, and then wrestle with two key points leading into the rest of the season:

-What is the difference between being like Jesus and simply doing the things He said to do?

-Just how complex and mysterious is Jesus, the object of our formation?

Thanks for being with us!

This episode continues the discussion from Ep 114.

Is God Partial? Spiritual First Class and the Love of God | Ep 146

What if you believe God loves everyone equally, but somewhere deep in your heart, you’re not so sure? In Episode 146, Brian explores the hidden idea that God is partial—that some people receive greater affection, access, or favor because they are more successful, useful, disciplined, or spiritually mature. We’ll examine how this idea surfaces through performance, suffering, comparison, spiritual celebrity, and our relationships with others—and how deep discipleship invites us to experience God’s love as a gift rather than something we earn.
