Welcome to A Pilgrimage of Unfolding Grace, a podcast intended to extend the conversation on themes from my book of the same name. In this journey, I want to help you explore your Story with God, your personality in the light of Christ, and the gifts you have been given by the Holy Spirit. I believe your calling is found at the intersection of these related themes if you learn to listen carefully enough.

The conversation around spiritual gifts can be a contentious one, both for people who have grown up in charismatic circles where they were sensationalized, or perhaps even weaponized; or for others who may not have grown up with any awareness of them at all. In many regards, it seems a facet of the Christian experience best left in a drawer, a relic from the first century church we can admire from afar, yet never really consider as part of our calling today.
From my vantage point however, I see incredible possibilities for the modern church, as we see the inner work of the Spirit through contemplative traditions meeting with the outer work of the Spirit through the Pentecostal ones. After all, formation and gifts are work of the same Spirit that has guided us for millennia.
Today’s conversation is with my dear friend, Brian Ban, who shepherds the Anchor Fellowship community in Nashville, Tennessee. I have watched Brian, first under his tutelage as part of that community and then as a peer, seek after the Kingdom with everything he has in a way that blesses the gifts to be an offering of God’s love to the world.
