What Does Pouring into Someone Mean? And How Do I Know it’s Safe?
When we pour into others, we are sharing the contents of our hearts. Sometimes this comes from wanting to share our passion and love for someone or something while other times it comes from needing to convey our deepest held secrets. If you’re in a mutually healthy and safe relationship or environment, pouring your heart may come easy. But if you’re not in a safe and healthy relationship or environment, it’s not always reciprocal and can cause more harm than good.
We’re curious though, what are your thoughts? What does pouring into someone look like for you? How do you know when it’s safe to do so? We’d love to hear from you! Leave us a comment in our NOMADS community or reach out via social media. As always, our DM's are always open!
*This week’s question came from a conversation on the Open Christian Reddit Forum! https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenChristian/

Why Does it Matter?
You may be asking, “why does what matter”, which is exactly the right question. Why does it matter? What is it? Why are we here, doing this thing? What purpose does it serve? What even is it are we looking for?
This week’s question opens up the conversation for even more questions. But what’s new? Whether you’re a business owner, a podcast host, a dentist, a ring leader, a pastor, or a middle school art teacher, you’ve probably asked yourself why does any of it matter? What purpose does it serve to do what you’re doing right now in this moment?
And does there have to be a deeper meaning or purpose behind what we’re doing (or not doing)? The only answer we have for you is simply, or not so simply, “Yes, and”. It’s all up for interpretation. You have the freedom to go as deep as you want to go.
We’re curious though, what are your thoughts? Why does it all matter to you? We’d love to hear from you! Leave us a comment in our NOMADS community or reach out via social media. As always, our DM's are always open!

How Do You Reconstruct?
What’s the difference between deconstruction and reconstruction? What does it look like to rebuild from the ground up? How do we give ourselves room to grow and space to evaluate ourselves? Where should we end up after asking our questions?
This week, we’re sharing a question submitted through our NOMADS community about reconstruction. Many of us are familiar with the idea of deconstruction and questioning our beliefs but unsure of what to do with those questions. The beautiful thing is that de/re construction is a cyclical process, meaning that we’re constantly growing and changing our beliefs based on experiences and communing with others. In order to reconstruct, we must be open to new possibilities and allow ourselves to not have all the answers.
We’re curious though, how do you reconstruct? Have you recently reconstructed your faith? We’d love to hear from you!

Is “Christian” Still the Right Term for a Follower of Christ?
Can I still call myself a Christian if many of the actions of others don’t represent Christ? Is there a better alternative than the term “Christian”? Does “Follower of the Way or “Follower of Christ” mean the same thing as Christianity? Does it have the same connotation? Is there anything wrong with the term Christian or is it outdated? Can the term “Christian” evolve into something else that means truth and love to us?
This week, we polled our NOMADS group if they struggled with calling themselves Christian, and while we had varying answers, the majority of everyone said yes. Throughout many conversations we’ve had in our group and on our social media channels, other individuals shared that while they don’t have a hard time associating with the term Christian, they had a hard time associating with other Christians. So we wanted to bring the conversation behind the mic.

“What are Green Flags to Look for in a Spiritual Leader, Mentor, or Parent?
Do pastors have “spiritual authority” over their congregation? Are titles given or received? And what does it mean to have a “spiritual parent”?
This week, we are wrapping up our 3-part series of “Green Flags,” where we explore what makes a healthy church, creating a healthy community, and what to look for when in a healthy Spiritual leader.
In part 3, we discuss green flags to look for in a spiritual leader, mentor, and parent. If you’ve ever wondered what makes a healthy spiritual leader, green flags in leadership, and what level of authority pastors actually have, then this episode is for you! Whether you’re a pastor, an authority figure in the church, or you’re simply looking for spiritual counsel, here are a few green flags to ensure healthy leadership!

“What are Green Flags to Look for in a Church?”
And what are the green flags to look for in a community? Do you have to be like-minded to find a healthy community? Or can you disagree on beliefs and still love and respect one another?
This week, we are continuing our 3-part series of “Green Flags,” where we explore what makes a healthy church, creating a healthy community, and what to look for when in a healthy Spiritual leader.
In part 2, we discuss green flags to look for in a church. Whether you’ve been away from church for a season and are longing to find a new church community, seeking a new church community, or you’ve never been to a church service before and are interested in learning more, this episode is for you!

“What is Church?”
How do you define Church? Is it a building you attend on specific days of the week? Is the Church more of a diverse, like-hearted community? Or is it a mixture of both? You’ve probably heard the phrase, “Church isn’t a building; We are the Church.” But if you’ve experienced church hurt or have never attended a single church service in your life, it may be hard to convey what it truly is.
Once you’ve defined what Church is (or isn’t) for yourself, this opens the door for even more conversation to flourish, such as defining what a healthy Church body looks like and Church leadership. If you feel like you have more questions than answers, this series is for you!
This week, we are starting our 3-part series of “Green Flags,” where we explore what makes a healthy church, creating a healthy community, and what to look for when in a healthy Spiritual leader. As we share our personal ideas of what makes a Church in part one, we also explore the difference between Church as a noun vs. Church as a verb.

“What did you learn in your off-season about spirituality that surprised you?”
Welcome to Season 2 of The Reckless Pursuit! If you’re new here, we are “A Safe Place for Christians to Ask Unsafe Questions”. In 2021, we took a pause on the podcast to focus on personal endeavors and go inward on our personal spiritual journies. But, we couldn’t shake the feeling that while we were off-air, we weren’t finished having these types of conversations.
Now, a year later, we are dedicated to bringing deeper conversations by asking deeper questions. But, we want to hear from YOU. Have a question you’d like to ask or a topic you’d like featured on the show? Our DM’s are open! Follow the links below to leave your questions, comments, and feedback.
Let’s do this together!

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
This is our season. To pursue what sparks a fire in our spirit.

Sometimes we look around at the chaos and can’t help but ask: “Where is Jesus in all this”. Then we look in the mirror.
---
Jesus is all around us. But more than that, He is in and is everything as well. The darkest dark and brightest light all contain the echo of Christ.
This week, we share a quick thought on how to find Christ in the chaos. We talk about how Christ is not far off or distant, but rather how to find the God (not necessarily good, but the God) in those hard moments and seemingly barren events.

Can you lose salvation or did you never have it to begin with? Or maybe it’s option 3: You found God along the way...
---
Depending on your church upbringing, you have probably heard of the idea that one might lose their salvation. That God was chillin’ at his desk-throne with a big bottle of White-Out® just waiting to blot your sorry broad butt out of his nice book and swap you with some new heathen worth saving.
Or, if you grew up a little more southern Baptist, maybe you thought that if you mustered up the guts to walk away, you never loved God in the first place. To quote one of the great thinkers of our time, Gym Class Heroes, “if that ain’t love then I don’t know what love is”.
What if all this talk of losing your salvation is actually a limitation? What if, instead of limiting the thoughts of an amazing Savior, we opened our mind to who that is beyond just what we have been taught? What if when we got tired of reenacting miracles of old, we found God and actually developed an intimate relationship with Him/Her. That would probably look a lot like a loss to someone who hasn’t lived it.

Sometimes things happen that are just too bizarre. So much so that we halt our original scheduled content to talk about. This week what is it? Satan shoes, of course.
---
So apparently a rapper put some blood in some Nike shoes and labeled them devil Shoes or “Satan Shoes”. Of course, Christians are upset and now boycotting Nike for them. Just one problem: Nike didn’t make the shoes….
And so here we are, once again looking to react instead of respond, judge instead of love, and curse and blame instead of showing compassion. I mean, what’s better than freaking out at a company that had nothing to do with something rather than addressing the trauma that caused the item to be made in the first place, am I right?

Life is more organic and less industrial. Our goal is to grow out, not build up. It’s good to just be and live content.
---
Babel, that tall tower that we built to reach heaven. We still do that same thing to this day. Whether it is our faith, carrier, deconstruction… whatever it is, we love building up to create the most beautiful, intricate structures out of our lives. But life is not a contest and elaborate structures of steel and concrete lack the life and organic beauty that lies in a simple vine.
Our goal is to grow and adapt, not build and captivate.

No one online cares that much about your opinions unless you share the same opinions as they do. There, we said it.
---
Have you ever been scrolling along and saw someone share something that just burned you up? Maybe you were watching the news and just learned a new, outrageous thing to be upset about. “I can’t believe they did this!?”
News Flash: This is all intentional. Controversy keeps ratings high, money flowing, people in power, and most importantly, you under its dominion. I know, I know. We are sounding a bit like conspirators. Then I invite you to go through history and observe how this is and has been the case for years. Control people’s emotions, control the people.
From political powers to religious institutions and everything in between, the Satanic mindset of control has been deployed. So how do we get free of it? It’s simple! (and not so simple…) Cut off the flow of information. You can’t be upset and meaningless things if no one can tell you what to be mad about.
Now, We are not saying to turn a blind eye. Not at all! Just, focus on things that ACTUALLY matter, not things intended to distract us from those things. Remember: those who get caught up in the weeds get covered in ticks.

Sharing the gospel is not blasting every little thing about your faith online. It’s okay to have a private relationship with God.
---
Welcome to the wacky world of faith and social media where we’ve been conditioned to share every little detail about our faith online to justify our salvation. Did you pray today? You better post about it! Have a blessing loft your way? Public proclamations are in order! Maybe you are feeling a bit of a struggle come on… BUT GOD IS GOOD!
Your relationship with Christ is intimate. And like most other intimate relationships, some things are meant to keep private. This week, for our episode that officially marks THREE YEARS OF THIS SHOW, we are talking about something that is basically the polar opposite of a podcast. (fitting, right?) We are talking about how wanting to keep your faith more personal to you is actually completely okay. Sorry evangelicals, sharing the gospel isn’t what you think it is.

Your self worth is not denied by your salary, your social status, or your faith. We are all humans. Christ came to unify.
---
We love to define people. Make more money? Oh, you’re special. In the ministry? Wow, you’re chosen by God. Have a bit of fame? Man, we just need to wear those clothes you wear so people think we are something special too! Labels help us define categories in our lives...but those aren’t intended to be the lens we view our fellow humans through.
When we walk into a room, we can instantly gauge the atmosphere. Ever heard the term, “You could cut the tension with a knife”? This whole episode is dedicated to realizing our value, to respect ourselves enough to create the atmosphere that promotes our growth (and in doing so, promotes the growth of others), and realizing that those who do not value who you were created to be should not and do not have the authority to speak into your life.
Life is a gift and Christ came to show us our humanity and equality. We are not defined by our circumstances but rather by our human-ness.

Life is what we make it. But also what we make it can end up being so far from living.
---
Nothing like having a gun pulled on you to make you rethink life, am I right?
This week, we are talking about a crazy experience we had a few weeks ago that left us a bit shaken. But we learned a lot from it! Things like how so much of what we do is completely meaningless, how God and spirituality are so much more simple than we make them out to be, and how the simple joys in life are what count.
This episode recaps a truly sobering moment in our lives. We hope that this is also a reminder to us that what brings us joy is worth pressing into. But also, what doesn’t bring us joy is not likely not as serious as we often think.

Sometimes our faith isn’t at the forefront of our thoughts. It’s like Jesus on cruise control. This is okay.
---
When you’re new to the faith you are often taught to meditate on Christ and to imitate him. Like riding a bike, at first, it’s all you can do to not just crash and scuff your shins. But as you get better and more familiar with balance and braking, you begin to focus upward and outward, taking in your surroundings.
The same applies to faith. Just like riding a bike or driving a car, our relationship with Christ becomes so close to us that the action of faith itself becomes indistinguishable from daily life. And this is okay! Now of course there are times we have to give it our focus (and should!) but there is no built-in putting faith on cruise control, rolling the windows down, and just enjoying the ride.

Jesus was full of grace but in our terms, He wasn’t graceful. He was excellent but in the way we use it, He wasn’t full of excellence at all.
---
Church culture loves the term excellent. Society loves the term graceful. Both of these terms carry a load of importance but neither of them are used the way they should be. What does it mean to be full of grace? Is it simply how we carry ourselves? How does one achieve excellence? Is it our mannerisms and how we dress?
This week we are talking about grace and excellence. We discuss how both of these terms are vital, yet have been taken to mean something much vainer than their intended purpose.
