386: Pastoral Debrief with a bit of Flacius
About this Episode
Kick Out the Jams.
In this episode, we focus on the raw, real work of life in the parish—the ordinary burdens, the hidden insecurities, and the quiet faith that holds it all together. We explore the distinction between philosophy and theology and why attempts to fuse them often leave both diminished. There's talk of reformation—its drama, its necessity, and its cost. We reflect on the pervasive victim-perpetrator dynamic that shapes so much of modern life and how the gospel when rightly preached, breaks that cycle. At the heart of it all is this: the power of Christ's mercy to open what we've shut tight, to drive out the bitterness we've made into habit, and to speak a word stronger than shame.
