How do you read any part of the Bible–a chapter or a passage–and get something out of it? One of the keys is knowing the big story which holds all of the parts together. In this episode, Autumn and Hunter begin a series of conversations to help us make sense of the whole Bible. They discuss three major themes that connect all 66 books: The Kingdom of God, The Promise of God and the person of Jesus Christ.

Episode 165 | Politics, Part 1: The Purpose Of Politics
April 3, 2024 • Autumn Gardner, Hunter Beaumont
When we talk about “politics,” we usually mean elections and debates about public issues involving our government and “politicians.” But we can’t think well about governmental politics unless we understand “politics” in a bigger way, as an aspect of our inter-relational existence created by God. Hunter and Autumn discuss two paradigms to get at this bigger meaning of politics. The first paradigm utilizes the biblical movements of creation, fall, and redemption to elucidate the intention, complication, and redeemed modality of politics. The second paradigm relies on the biblical terms shalom, justice, and righteousness to inquire how a redeemed body politick, the Church, can pursue wholeness as the purpose of “politics.”
