The architecture of worship space reflects the theology, doctrine, and organization of a faith tradition.  Using the book, Sacred Power, Sacred Space, we examine the history of the early Christian churches and their spaces and reflect on what that means for us today from the perspective of both high and low liturgical traditions.**New website is here!!! www.genesismarksthespot.com  My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GenesisMarkstheSpot Genesis Marks the Spot on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/genesismarksthespot Genesis Marks the Spot on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/genesismarksthespot/  Sacred Power, Sacred Space:  https://www.amazon.com/Sacred-Power-Space-Introduction-Architecture/dp/0195336062/ref=sr_1_1?crid=15K3214WZ8PLM&keywords=sacred+power+sacred+space&qid=1699596487&sprefix=sacred+power+sacred+spac%2Caps%2C196&sr=8-1  Music credit: "Marble Machine" by Wintergatan Link to Wintergatan’s website: https://wintergatan.net/ Link to the original Marble Machine video by Wintergatan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&ab_channel=Wintergatan

Is Eden the archetype of sacred space, or is it the temple?  How do we utilize the archetype to shed light on how we worship today?  Cindy Beaver and I overview the concept of sacred space and we move the idea forward to today in our own worship contexts. **New website is here!!! www.genesismarksthespot.com  My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GenesisMarkstheSpot Genesis Marks the Spot on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/genesismarksthespot Genesis Marks the Spot on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/genesismarksthespot/   Music credit: "Marble Machine" by Wintergatan Link to Wintergatan’s website: https://wintergatan.net/ Link to the original Marble Machine video by Wintergatan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&ab_channel=Wintergatan

Spirits are not just entities.  Is there a "real" spirit of jealousy?  What about a spirit of drunkenness?  Unpack Scripture to see how it uses the term "spirit" in a much broader way than spiritual beings.  Come see how the generational curse crowd takes something true but hides the holistic way we should be dealing with our problems.**New website is here!!! www.genesismarksthespot.com  My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GenesisMarkstheSpot Genesis Marks the Spot on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/genesismarksthespot Genesis Marks the Spot on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/genesismarksthespot/ Cosmic Corner on Faith Unaltered, What is a Spirit?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ns0Psz9hRJc&ab_channel=FaithUnaltered  Music credit: "Marble Machine" by Wintergatan Link to Wintergatan’s website: https://wintergatan.net/ Link to the original Marble Machine video by Wintergatan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&ab_channel=Wintergatan

The meaning of "sacrifice" has shifted between the time of the Bible to today.  How did that happen?  Join Cindy Beaver and I and let's get back to a more biblical view of what sacrifice is!  We discuss Jeremy Davis' book, Welcoming Gifts: Sacrifice in the Bible and Christian Life, and we lay out the offerings in Leviticus--their purposes and perhaps better translations for these offerings than we might see in our English Bibles. **New website is here!!! www.genesismarksthespot.com  My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GenesisMarkstheSpot Genesis Marks the Spot on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/genesismarksthespot Genesis Marks the Spot on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/genesismarksthespot/ Welcoming Gifts, by Jeremy Davis:  https://www.amazon.com/Welcoming-Gifts-Sacrifice-Bible-Christian-ebook/dp/B0B1B7TC1J/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1697772967&sr=8-2  Music credit: "Marble Machine" by Wintergatan Link to Wintergatan’s website: https://wintergatan.net/ Link to the original Marble Machine video by Wintergatan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&ab_channel=Wintergatan

Worship and the image of God: both are associated with sacred space and our relationship with God.  James Russell joins me for a conversation about how these things connect with our discipleship as believers.  While we don't touch on current events and eschatology, the things discussed in this conversation are how I personally relate to the topic of the end times.  **New website is here!!! www.genesismarksthespot.com  My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GenesisMarkstheSpot Genesis Marks the Spot on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/genesismarksthespot Genesis Marks the Spot on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/genesismarksthespot/Music credit: "Marble Machine" by Wintergatan Link to Wintergatan’s website: https://wintergatan.net/ Link to the original Marble Machine video by Wintergatan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&ab_channel=Wintergatan

Worship in the ancient world and worship today seem like they're two totally different concepts and ideas.  Are they really that different?  Why would they be?  Cindy Beaver and I start to discuss this in the second part of the worship series. **New website is here!!! www.genesismarksthespot.com  My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GenesisMarkstheSpot Genesis Marks the Spot on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/genesismarksthespot Genesis Marks the Spot on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/genesismarksthespot/ Music credit: "Marble Machine" by Wintergatan Link to Wintergatan’s website: https://wintergatan.net/ Link to the original Marble Machine video by Wintergatan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&ab_channel=Wintergatan
