Episode Title: Back to Basics
Overview:
For movement to happen, we must recover a local theology of a global Christ.
In this episode, we go back to basics — rediscovering what it means to live with a missional incarnate impulse in the places we live, work, and play.
Jesus didn’t stay distant; He showed up in the flesh. That’s our model for mission.
We’re called to do the same — to bring His presence into our:
🏠 First Place: Our homes and neighborhoods, where God is already at work.
💼 Second Place: Our workplaces, where vocation becomes a mask of God’s hidden grace.
☕ Third Place: The spaces we gather socially, where trust is built and hearts are opened.
To be incarnate means to live as if God is already there, waiting for us to join Him in His mission.
As Martin Luther said, “Our vocation is a mask of God.” The ordinary becomes holy when it’s surrendered to Christ’s lordship.
Through stories like Jesus walking with the disciples on the road to Emmaus (Luke 24) and His meal with the “sinful woman” in Luke 7, we’re reminded that the Church isn’t a spiritual gated community or a ghetto of moral righteousness — it’s an interrupted gathering of a beloved community.
God’s mission is reconciliation — bringing peace to a hurting world through people willing to show up, listen deeply, share meals, and embody the Gospel where they are.
That’s how movements are born.
That’s how disciples are made.
That’s how we take off — together.
