A word about the title of this podcast – Through Stained Glass. We have these beautiful stained glass windows in our sanctuary that tell the gospel story. Scene by scene. The birth of Jesus Christ. His miraculous life. His death, resurrection and ascension into heaven… A stained glass window is different from a painting. You look at a painting. But you look thru a window.  So, the church looks out at world through stained glass – that is, as defined by the true depiction of reality in the window. The windows are portals into reality through which we see everything else… So, this podcast is an attempt to engage with things going on in the culture through the greater reality of God – in the hope that we might live lives that are profoundly shaped by the gospel story and not the dominant cultural narratives and liturgies that make up what the Bible calls “the world.”
