Rethinking God with Tacos PODCAST

In this podcast, Lloyd Clark, Jason’s dad, talks about his faith journey from behavior-focused religious striving into grace and the love of our Father; about waking up every morning in the revelation of being enough. With humor and authenticity, Lloyd talks about the finished work of the Cross, how Jesus fixed the problem of separation, and our invitation to awaken to our union. “The whole sin conscious mindset has you waking up every morning ‘not enough.”’ “The call of God is, “Receive my Son” Derek Turner “Everything we did and everything we built was out of insecurity because we didn’t know we were enough.” “God never came to me with shame” “When you’re not enough, everything you do is tainted with insecurity.” “I know exactly what you’re going through, I know the pain. I have felt that betrayal.” “If a kid can’t get it, it’s not the gospel.” “Jesus fixed the problem of separation.” A Family Story is a 501c3 nonprofit.

Thomas Jay Oord's book, God Can’t, rethinks God’s power as a means of explaining evil. "Given that we start with God's power…we end up giving God the kind of capabilities that make God culpable, in other words, morally responsible for not only causing but allowing bad things…I think there are good biblical reasons to object to that standard view of Gods power." In this podcast, we talk about how God's power, his sovereignty, is best understood through the uncontrolling love of God. A Family Story is a 501c3 nonprofit.

Separation theology has been woven into nearly every teaching we have in the church. It's in how we approach scripture, personal devotion, how to approach relationship, leadership, pastoring, prophecy, evangelism… on and on the heresy of separation is the "leaven in the dough" of our faith. The delusion that God abandons his creation is a foundational lie that must be dug up. In this first episode of season two, Jason and new host Derek Turner dive into the wonder of what Jesus revealed about our Father and humanity through the cross and resurrection.

“If you can define it, you automatically have confined it as well.” Randall Worley talks about having a “beginner’s mind,” faith while embracing mystery, pioneering and the nature of heresy, the limits of language, approaching scripture through love, and the importance of remaining curious while understanding that God is not insecure or defensive when we raise hard questions. “If we are afraid of the answers we will never ask the hard questions.” A Family Story is a 501c3 nonprofit.

Therapists Amy Simmons and Krispin Mayfield discuss attachment theory and how it intersects with our spirituality and plays out in our church culture. The parent-child relationship and our formative years greatly influence how we navigate everything, including our spirituality and faith. Often our theological deconstructions are the fruit of discovering a God with whom we feel loved, secure, and safe; where we move from insecure to secure attachment.

This is a laughter-filled conversation about a kind God and a transformative faith. We all have friends who walk with us and encourage and challenge us. Those people who we call when we get a revelation or breakthrough, Jarred Teague is that guy for Thomas. Jarred grew up Baptist with loving parents. But much of his thoughts about his faith were filtered through a retributive God lens. So Jarred was faced with the intellectual disparity of a good God who would send people to hell to prove His love. But years ago, Jarred walked away from that fractured faith and discovered the simple gospel, God is like Jesus. This has led to great freedom, transformation, and the realization that when the gospel is the love of God we can change the world. A Family Story is a 501c3 nonprofit.
