The Logic of Empire vs. the Imagination of the Kingdom

In this powerful message, David Bailey opens Romans 12 and calls the church to resist being discipled by the empire's logic-fear, pride, and division-and instead be transformed by the kingdom imagination of Jesus. Through personal stories, history, and Scripture, Bailey shows how humility, belonging, and shared life across lines of race and class are essential practices of spiritual formation. This is a prophetic invitation for Park Hill Church-and all followers of Jesus-to embody the prayer: "Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven"

Family Time: Women of Color, Leadership, and Belonging

In this third Gospel, Race, and Belonging conversation, Evan sits down in the Wickhams’ living room with three amazing women who help lead Park Hill Church — Pastor Sandy Wickham, Pastor Arielle Dortch, and Nicolette Herrera. All three are experienced pastors and leaders — but in this episode, Evan didn’t ask them to preach or teach. He asked them to simply be real. What follows is a raw, funny, and deeply honest conversation about faith, ethnicity, leadership, and belonging as women of color in a predominantly white church. It’s full of laughter, vulnerability, and grace — a glimpse of what true spiritual family sounds like. Our hope is that this conversation inspires holy and disruptive conversations in your own homes and communities — for the sake of deeper unity in Jesus.

In this episode, Evan Wickham sits down with Dr. Nijay Gupta—New Testament scholar, author, and professor—to talk about the transforming power of empathy in the life of a disciple.

Together they discuss racial and ethnic unity, formation through crisis, and the call to make the church a community of rehumanization and reconciliation. If you’ve ever wondered how the gospel speaks into our polarized moment—or how to cultivate empathy without losing conviction—this conversation is for you.
