    Episode 111: Anabaptist Peacemaking
    2026/07/16
    In this episode of Peaceable and Kind, Derek Vreeland continues the Holy Convergence series by exploring peacemaking, the gift of the Anabaptist tradition. Emerging during the Radical Reformation of the sixteenth century, the Anabaptists believed that following Jesus meant more than affirming correct doctrine, it meant obeying the teachings of Jesus in everyday life. Their commitment to believer’s baptism, discipleship, nonviolence, and allegiance to the kingdom of God set them apart from both Catholics and other Protestant reformers. Derek traces the origins of the Anabaptist movement through figures such as Felix Manz, Michael Sattler, and Menno Simons. Despite severe persecution, imprisonment, exile, and martyrdom, these radical reformers remained committed to the teachings of Jesus, particularly his commands to love enemies, forgive offenders, and reject retaliation. The episode then explores peacemaking in the way of Jesus. Rooted in the Sermon on the Mount and the example of Christ’s self-giving love, Christian nonviolence is presented not as passivity or mere niceness, but as the courageous pursuit of reconciliation, justice, mercy, and truth without violence. The Anabaptist witness reminds us that the teachings of Jesus are not impossible ideals but practical instructions for faithful Christian discipleship. Key Takeaways • The Anabaptists emerged from the Radical Reformation in sixteenth-century Europe. • Believer’s baptism became a defining conviction of the movement. • The Anabaptists rejected the fusion of church and state common throughout Europe. • Following Jesus meant obeying his teachings, especially those found in the Sermon on the Mount. • Christian nonviolence is rooted in Jesus’ command to love enemies and refuse retaliation. • Peacemaking is more than avoiding conflict; it is the active work of reconciliation and justice. • The kingdom of God advances through persuasion, service, suffering, and love and not coercion. • The Anabaptist witness continues to challenge Christians to take the teachings of Jesus seriously.

  • Episode 110: Protestant Audacity

    Episode 110: Protestant Audacity
    2026/07/09
    In this episode of Peaceable and Kind, Derek Vreeland continues the Holy Convergence series by exploring the gift of Protestantism: audacity. Audacity is the courage to challenge assumptions, confront corruption, and pursue reform when faithfulness requires it. While audacity can easily become arrogance when detached from humility and love, it has also been the driving force behind many of history’s most important movements for renewal and justice. The episode traces the origins of the Protestant Reformation through the life of Martin Luther, the German monk whose spiritual struggle led him to rediscover the biblical message of salvation by grace through faith. Derek recounts Luther’s famous thunderstorm vow, his growing concerns over indulgences, and the events surrounding the Ninety-Five Theses. What began as a call for theological debate eventually became a movement that transformed the church, reshaped Europe, and challenged one of the most powerful institutions in the world. Beyond Luther, Derek highlights other reformers such as Huldrych Zwingli, John Calvin, and William Tyndale, whose courage helped spread the Reformation throughout Europe. He also explores the Five Solas as a summary of Protestant theology, while offering thoughtful reflections on both their strengths and limitations. Ultimately, this episode argues that the gift of Protestantism is not division for its own sake, but the willingness to continually ask whether our beliefs, practices, and traditions remain faithful to Jesus and the gospel. The church must always be willing to reform itself when necessary, keeping Christ at the center of all things. Key Takeaways • Audacity is the courage to challenge assumptions and pursue reform. • Martin Luther did not initially seek to start a new church but to reform the existing one. • The Protestant Reformation emerged from a desire to return to biblical and apostolic roots. • The printing press played a crucial role in spreading Reformation ideas. • The Five Solas summarize many of the central convictions of Protestant theology. • Audacity without humility becomes arrogance; audacity without love becomes division. • The church must continually evaluate its traditions in light of Scripture and the gospel. • Faithfulness to Jesus sometimes requires questioning long-standing assumptions.

  • Episode 109: Anglican Liturgy

    Episode 109: Anglican Liturgy
    2026/07/02
    In this episode of Peaceable and Kind, Derek Vreeland continues the Holy Convergence series by exploring the gift of Anglican liturgy. While Anglicanism is often associated with the Church of England and its complicated break from Rome under Henry VIII, Derek argues that its deeper story is rooted in a desire to remain connected to the ancient catholic and apostolic faith while embracing the reforms of the Protestant Reformation. The episode traces the development of Anglicanism from the early Christian presence in Britain through the English Reformation and into the formation of The Episcopal Church and the Anglican Church in North America. Derek highlights Anglicanism’s unique ability to hold together ancient tradition and biblical reform, creating a worshiping community shaped by Scripture, sacrament, liturgy, and the rhythms of the Christian calendar. At the center of Anglican worship is The Book of Common Prayer, first compiled by Thomas Cranmer in 1549. More than a collection of prayers, the Prayer Book provides a form for worship that is deeply biblical, Trinitarian, Christ-centered, and spiritually formative. Derek reflects on how the Daily Office Lectionary, and the Christian calendar have enriched both his personal devotional life and the worship life of his church. Ultimately, Anglican liturgy offers a beautiful pattern for prayer and worship—one marked by wholeness, harmony, and clarity. It is a gift that keeps Christians rooted in Scripture, connected to the historic church, and centered on Jesus Christ. Key Takeaways • Anglicanism seeks to be both catholic and reformed. • The Church of England emerged from both political and theological developments during the Reformation. • Anglican worship is shaped by Scripture, sacrament, liturgy, and the Christian calendar. • The Book of Common Prayer remains the defining resource of Anglican spirituality. • The Daily Office provides a structured rhythm of Scripture reading and prayer. • Anglicanism values both ancient tradition and biblical renewal. • Liturgy forms Christians through repeated patterns of worship and prayer. • The beauty of liturgy lies in its wholeness, harmony, and Christ-centered focus.
