From Babylon, With Love is a podcast ministry of Zoe Church, San Juan Capistrano. Our desire is to help Christians of any background craft a deeper Christian life for a post-Christian world. We understand the role of Christians and the Christian Church to be neither imperialist nor sectarian, neither triumphalist nor fearful, neither domineering nor withdrawn. Rather, we believe Christ has called us to be in the world, not of the world, for the sake of the world. To be faithful witnesses to Christ in the places he has called us, we believe we need to deepen our understanding of Christianity, deepen our approach to the Scripture and the basic practices of the Christian life, deepen our understanding of church history, deepen our capacity to think more critically and carefully about our own traditions and the world around us, and deepen our ability to enjoy what is true, what is good, and what is beautiful. From Babylon, With Love aims to make a small contribution to those lofty ends.

Well, my friends, our regularly unscheduled podcast is being interrupted with the first sermon from a new church some of my friends and I have just started in the Costa Mesa/Newport Beach area called The King's Chapel. Sermons from The King's Chapel will be hosted here at From Babylon, With Love for the forseeable future. If you stayed subscribed to this channel for this long, well . . . that's amazing. And God bless you!
With some sadness, Laura and I announce in this episode the impending end of the podcast...! But we also manage to tackle another chapter of Joshua Gibbs' book, How to Be Unlucky, as we head out the door. Much love to my patient peoples. Let's pod!
We're back with our second installment of podding through Joshua Gibbs's book How to Be Unlucky! Join Laura and I as we talk about what it means to pursue maturity.
In our first episode on Joshua Gibbs's book, How to be Unlucky, Laura and I tackle the place of goodness and the conversation around goodness in the life of Christian adults.
Well, I have never been accused of being punctual, but it's here! Join myself and my intrepid (long-suffering) co-host, Laura Hashimov, as we recap our summer and chart the pod path forward for this new season. It's good to be back. Put your feet up, pour a cup of something refreshing, and pretend, just for a moment, summer ended last week... Let's pod!
Lore! Lore! LORE! And some hot takes on the Rings of Power! The Only Dan Bellum brings us into the world of the Silmarillion, Tolkien's sweeping epic myth-history of Middle Earth which undergirds the better-known stories of The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and yes, The Rings of Power. Let's follow Daniel into the ancient library as he blows the dust off this epic tome and tells us the tale of a thousand paths. Pour a strong cup of coffee, get out your maps and charts, find an old leather chair . . . and let's pod!
Pour yourself a nice cup of coffee or tea, my friends, stir the fire, put your feet up--it's time to return to the reading room. From time to time on the pod, we like to dive more deeply into a particular author or work of literature, and this season is no exception. Join myself and The Only Dan Bellum as we explore the roots of the world J.R.R. Tolkien created in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. This is Part 1, with Part 2 soon to follow! Let's pod! Let's read!
