The Restoration Project Podcast

This week, Josh and Tessa talk about Jesus healing Bart, you know, the Son of Timaeus (the Son of Timaeus) from Mark 10. In addition to loads of biblical nerd stuff, they also talk miracles, accessibility, and the necessity of community transformation. Hosts: Josh James (pastor) and Tessa Stultz (content machine) the restoration project. 24 October 2021 www.restoresby.org

This week, Josh and Tessa are talking about Mark 10.32-45. Jesus predicts his death (again ...) and the disciples don't get it (again ...). In fact, two of the twelve have a little side chat about sitting on Jesus' left and right when he "enters his glory" in Jerusalem. Naturally, this provides an opportunity for all sorts of ridiculous banter. Be blessed. the restoration project. 17 October 2021....

Ok. So it's been a while since we've uploaded a sermon. (Many apologies.) Part of the reason for that is ... we have been having more conversations lately than normal "sermons." And it's hard to capture the magic of what happens on a Sunday night conversation. So here's what we are doing. We are going to try a long form, podcast style "sermon," which will basically be a Bible nerdfest (and other r...

This was so long ago, I'm not sure who was playing. Tessa Stultz was singing. Bethany Jubilee was on the violin. And some other really talented folks were playing music.

I know what you’re thinking. “Isn’t this a series on Joseph?” Yes. Yes, it is. But the way the story is told, the author interposes a chapter on one of Joseph’s brothers, Judah. It seems completely unrelated, and for many years scholars affirmed that conclusion. But really ... it has a lot of ties to work precedes and what follows. **Also, parents and caretakers of kids, you might want to put your...

Joseph has some dreams ... and they don't go over too well with the brothers. In fact, they want to murder him. (Spoiler: They don't. But they do sell him into slavery.) the restoration project. Joshua James. 17 January 2021

New SERIES! We're talking about Joseph. You may know the story — punk kid, coat of many colors (although that's probably a bad translation), has a few dreams, brothers sell him into Egyptian slavery, succeeds and takes on a bunch of responsibility, gets accused of rape, goes to prison, interprets some dreams in "prison," takes on more responsibility, climbs the ladder, gets some "mental revenge" o...

Our Advent series this year is themed around the recurring command, "Do Not Fear." It appears throughout the birth narratives of Jesus in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. This week, we focus on Joseph. He's usually "the guy who has to believe his wife when she said she didn't cheat on him." (She didn't.) But this is a massive reduction to the character of Joseph. if we can silence our own insecuri...

Our Advent series this year is themed around the recurring command, "Do Not Fear." It appears throughout the birth narratives of Jesus in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. This week, we focus on Mary, an 8th grader (more or less), who I think we have broadly misunderstood. When Luke places her story in contrast to that of Zechariah, however, we see her for what she is ... a bold, risk-taking, obedi...
