In this week's Gathering, we looked at Babylon not just as a specific kingdom but as a repeating archetype of kingdom power. That sparked plenty of questions for our JourneyNOW roundtable panel of Mike Erre, Suzie Lind, Tim Timmons and Kevin Dixon. Can we apply that archetype to our own world and cultures? And, how do we live in exile in those cultures as people who are centered on Jesus? Plus: Bad theories on the secrets of Suzie's success; Kevin brings back Ocean Pacific style; Mike's best quality is just not being so bad; and Tim tries to remember where he is. - - - You can go deeper with us in our study of Revelation with the books on Journey's specially curated Amazon book list for the series.

Suzie Lind, Kevin Dixon and Tim Timmons join the table to discuss. Plus: Things are all Greek to Mike, Suzie discovers the secret of super productivity, Kevin gets on board the love bus and Tim mops up for the crew.

On Sunday, we discussed the letter to the church at Laodicaea (Rev. 3:14), a wealthy and comfortable church with little need for God and an apparently tepid municipal water supply. This week's Journey NOW panel—Tim Timmons, Suzie Lind, Mike Erre and host Kevin Dixon—think more about their experiences resisting the impulse to live at the comfortable center of their own lives. How do individuals and Christian communities in our affluent culture keep their focus on God and live lives that are refreshing (like cold water) or therapeutic (hot water)?
