Starlette Thomas, your podcast pastor, is here to tell you that the doors of this church are open!

 

  • In season 5, “A Love Offering,” Rev. Thomas examines the North American church’s questionable relationship with money and excoriates flock-fleecing shepherds and modern-day money changers who turn a dollar into health and wealth and call it ministry.
  • Season 4, “Body/Building,” invites listeners to take a fresh look at what it means to follow Jesusto the ends of the earth or into a church building. 
  • “Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3,” a limited series for Lent 2023, is named for the three wilderness temptations of Jesus. Each episode reminds Christians that they must have “ears to hear” what the Spirit is saying, namely that one’s calling comes with testing.  
  • Season 3, “Body Language,” looks at the North American church’s body language and examines how we have mishandled and marginalized some of our members.
  • “Jesus is coming!” is a limited Advent series for 2021 and reflects on faith, peace, joy and love and considers the significance of Jesus’ birth for Mary then and for us today.
  • Season 2, “Bodywork,” addresses the damage that the church in North America has done to itself.
  • In Season 1, Thomas and her guests flesh out that taboo trinity — race, religion and politics — and everything in between and all that gets in between Christians.
