493- Jesus Curses Religion: Part 2

“Is religion basically good for humanity? Or are these institutional authorities obscuring something far better?

In today’s podcast and post, we witness Jesus giving five more curses to religion. I’ll share a few examples of our common experiences with religion which indicate that after two-thousand years, very little has changed.

Join me now as we let Jesus’ condemnation sink into our own fundamental way of thinking, and allow his deconstruction to liberate us as rather than scare us.

491-Three More Temptations

“What does the questioning of Jesus by the religious authorities have to do with the Easter story?”

In today’s podcast and post, Jesus faces three more temptations prior to his crucifixion. Just like my question, they are tests, and just like our story today, our ability to answer reveals something about the resurrection.

Join me now as we follow Jesus as he lives from the power of the resurrection before he even dies, and why that’s only possible outside of religion.
