Today we continue Echoes from Exile with the story of Daniel and a question that feels especially important in our always connected world: What is feeding us? Daniel reminds us that while we cannot always choose the world around us, we can pay attention to what we consume and what we allow to shape who we are.

As you listen today, consider what has been feeding your heart and mind lately, and whether it is forming you into the person you want to become.

Today we continue Echoes from Exile with Ezekiel’s vision of a valley filled with dry bones. In a time when so much feels like it is shifting beneath us, Ezekiel reminds us that hope does not require the old world to return. God can breathe new life into what comes next.

As you listen today, consider what you have been breathing in lately, and whether it is producing fear and despair or the love, truth, and life of God’s Spirit.

Today we begin a new series called Echoes from Exile, exploring how we live faithfully when the world around us no longer feels quite like home. Through the prophet Jeremiah, we are reminded that faith does not call us to retreat into the past, but to wake up to where we are, love our neighbors, and seek the flourishing of the communities we inhabit.

As you listen today, consider where you may be longing for what used to be, and what might change if you trusted that God is already at work creating something new.
