Season 5 Episode 35 - PRESENT CONCERNS: Division by Paying Ridiculous Attention To Jesus

Join Rick for the 1st episode of the new series PRESENT CONCERNS—we’ll be exploring the issues and challenges that make up the wallpaper of our life today, connecting them directly back to how Jesus dealt with similar issues. In this kickoff episode we’ll explore—“Division.” It’s perhaps the word that best defines the last year, as Covid restrictions and fears, racial unrest and protests, and political extremism have churned us emotionally and spiritually. Joining us for this series will be none other than the Becky-nator! Becky Herrington, the longtime former cohost of this podcast.

Rick’s new daily devotional, the Jesus-Centered Daily, is releasing as this episode is posted. Head over to jesuscentereddaily.com to download a 10-day sampler of the devotion, or to order it for yourself or as a gift.
