This podcast features Maddie Lambert, Hannah Barker Nickolay, Jackson Nickolay, and Phil Quinn.

Episodes

Wednesday Jul 10, 2024

Hannah, Jackson, Phil and Maddie have been hard at work translating for *drum roll* a live scripture enactment! This week on the podcast the crew talks about what the process has been like so far. Specifically the weirdness that is the Hebrew language and the many different stories that could be being told in 1 Kings 16 and 17 including its echos of Merlin stories. We hope you are as excited as we are about this upcoming project. 
A fun question for this week: how many times did you hear Jackson say the word "chunk" and was it enough?
While we work to prepare enactments for a live show (or a few), we will be sharing more content on our socials (posted below). To create space for this, episodes are going to temporarily switch to a once a month posting schedule. We hope you will follow along with us as we engage scripture in this special way.

You can also chime into Maddie and Jackson's ongoing debate about what words in the english language are indeed not difficult for only Maddie to grasp and, thus, worth defining. Hope to see you there!

Happy Liturgical Shenanigan Day! We're back from our hiatus at the start of another high liturgical season: Lent. So in this episode we will be turning our attention to practices of Lent, specifically fasting. Using Isaiah 58 as a focus we chat about fasting and all the ways in which we can incorporate that into our observance of this liturgical season. 
Throughout the season of Lent we will be engaging Psalm 58 through writing and development of content and resources over on our social media. We'll also return to Isaiah 58 on the podcast later on in the season of Lent as a sort of check in/waystone. So follow along for more on the theme

Friday Dec 15, 2023

Friday Dec 15, 2023

Happy Liturgical Shenanigan Day ANNDDD Happy Advent! This week the team discusses what it means to engage embodied practices and shenanigans. What does embodied mean? What is it to worship with our whole selves? Does this make worship more or less accessible?

Each week features a scripture reflection and an embodied practice to engage. You can access the full devotional on Emmaus Church's website here: https://emmausreformedchurch.org/advent-devotional/. We are also posting snippets of the devotional on our social media sites.
