Could it be that Christianity drew some of its images from surrounding culture?  Of course! Not only could it, it did! And, the Good Shepherd seems to be one of those images. How else might we know what Jesus meant by using “good” as a descriptor here in today’s passage?  Join hosts Karin Peter and Blake Smith for this week’s Coffee to Go, as they encourage listeners to identify images and characteristics in today’s culture that serve as guides for the journey of discipleship.

Community of Christ’s journey toward ordination of women began long before 1984 and Section 156 of the Doctrine and Covenants. The fact is that women have had significant roles in the Christian movement since its inception.  But, that didn’t make things easier for trailblazers like Marietta Walker, Catherine Westward, and Marge Troeh.  These women stand among many who have worked tirelessly to accept that, indeed, All Are Called.

From practical legal implement to inspiring logo, what we now know as the church seal has been around since April 8, 1874. It all started with a lion, a lamb, a child, a palm tree, three continents, and some laurel leaves.  Since then it’s had several iterations... all with deep significance in the lives of church members around the world.  Grab a “cuppa” and settle in as Andrew shares the history of the church seal sprinkled with a very personal testimony of its role in his life and in the life of the church. See Andrew’s Historic Sites Foundation lecture on the History of the Church seal, here. Other Episodes ft.
