Project Zion Podcast

Holy Invasion... doesn’t that sound intriguing? Perhaps a bit scary or creepy rather. In this episode of Coffee to Go, we find Jesus speaking in parables. Hosts Karin Peter and Blake Smith consider the importance of approaching those parables as a heart project versus a head project. Like poetry, sometimes it’s good to just “experience” the parables ... rest in them ... allow that to which they point, the reign of God, to invade our spirits.

Recommended Readings/Poems for experiencing “invasion” this week:

• Billy Collins, "Today”
• William Shakespeare, “Sonnet 94”
• A Poem for Every Day of the Year
• Carolyne Kennedy, A Family of Poems
