Our Disciple Making Cohort is in full swing and it's not too late for you to join in! Here's what Bill Randall, one of the cohort leaders, had to say about the first meeting:
"We had our first meeting yesterday afternoon with about 20 awesome participants. Really strong content, conversation and prayer on the themes of identity, authority and power. People are fired up. Jessie led a time of confession and repentance for our unbelief that a GM could erupt in Boise, and that God could indeed use everyday/ordinary disciples of Jesus. The Holy Spirit was so thick in the room. We had to pivot for some time to welcome the renewing/empowering presence of the Spirit. It was so good, so encouraging." How awesome.
Join them next Sunday, and register at www.boiseunderground.org/disciple.
The assumptions we have about what we deserve, and about what other people deserve, say alot about what we assume about God. But there's good news... our God is a God who pursues you.

Jessie gives us a stunning introduction to our new fall series that’s officially kicking off next week, Starting Over with God. She takes us through the parable of the Prodigal Son(s), asking us to examine our assumptions about ourselves, others and God. She reminds us of the hope that lies at the end of the story– that our identity is not in what we do or fail to do, but rather in the presence of not a withholding father, but a good one.

What's the deal with everybody's obsession with Jesus? Wondering what's the deal with Christianity- like how much is accurate and how much of what we see in the world is actually just...wrong?
If you're new to or curious about Jesus, our fall series is for YOU. We're jumping into a series called Starting Over with God. Join us on September 7th at 9am for the first installment, and find more about Sundays at Redemption Hill at redemptionboise.org.

“The gentle shall inherit the Earth.” On Sunday, we wrapped up our summer series, Bear Fruit, with Kyle speaking to us on Gentleness. (Yes, we went out of order.)
He walks us through instances of the gentleness Jesus talks about in the New Testament, and digs into what it means to actually bear the gentleness of the Holy Spirit (and why it’s so difficult for us today).

Not sure with what to do with all those clothes you just cleaned out of your closet at the end of the season?
We have an idea... :) Women, join us for a Clothing Swap at Wonder School on September 26th, starting at 7pm. You're welcome to bring clothes, shoes, jewelry, or small household items.
Please only bring 12-15 gently used items, in order to make space for everyone's things, and for a better swap experience! (Remember, we're not the thrift store... ;) ). Bring a snack to share, and we'll see you soon!

We had an amazing Saturday morning for the Boise Underground Summit. We talked through the story in which we find ourselves, to whom, what, and where we feel drawn, and made next step plans for what we're going to do about it.
If you missed it, or want more of what we did on Saturday, we'd love to see you at our Disciple Making Cohort in the fall, starting September 7th. Join us for our disciple making cohort to learn the essential task that Jesus commands: Go Make Disciples.
This 9 week course will take place at Discovery from 4:00-5:45p at Discovery Church. Get more details here: https://novo.org/disciple-makingcohort and register at www.boiseunderground.org/disciple.

Today's episode is from our friend Josh Cramer at Resurrection Covenant Boise. He walks through Romans 8, and talks about our identity as children of God. He explores what we were made for– for participation in God’s kingdom work in the world around us, to bring the beauty, justice and good news to the groaning creation around us–and how our truest identity and glory is our restored identity in Christ, not our past or even our present circumstances and actions.

Today’s episode of Bear Fruit is from Andrew on goodness. In today’s wild world, what is good often feels unclear. He looks at what the scriptures say about goodness, and asks us: what actually produces the power to do good things? And how can we participate in it?

#redemptionhillboise #podcasts #bearfruit
Bob’s episode of this weeks’ Bear Fruit on kindness focuses on the reality that kindness, like the other fruits, is an action we can practice. He leads us through several different thought experiments and exercises we can repeat to increase our capacity for kindness in our daily lives, both in our ability to receive and recognize it, and in our ability to radically give it.

“How are you doing with patience right now?” Kyle asks us in this week’s episode of Bear Fruit. Patience, especially in a difficult world or in a life that feels unsatisfying, can be extraordinarily difficult. However, Kyle surmises, thank God that we’re not actually the ones who have to drudge patience up from the depths. Walking and abiding with God will produce the fruit of the Spirit that is promised to us, even when it feels impossible or painful.

#redemptionhillboisepodcasts
For our second episode of our summer Bear Fruit series, Bob redefines love for us: an identity and an action, not just a feeling. Something we ground ourselves in, and something we can then practice in our lives. What would change if we believed that we were unconditionally loved by God? How would we live our lives differently?

Joy is the result of remaining in Jesus. Not something that we can muscle our way into.
We have to practice allowing ourselves to sit in the discomfort of thirst, resisting filling our own selves up, to allow space for Jesus to pour joy into us.

#redemptionhillboise #podcast #bearfruit #joy
“Joy is an external longing briefly met.” For our next episode of our summer series, Jessie brings us a good word on the ever elusive joy. She dives into our need for joy, why we always seem to be searching for it in vain, and where we might go to actually find it.
Listen to Jessie wherever you get your podcasts!

For our first episode of our new sermon series, Matt and Annie Michalowski talk to us about Jesus’ command in John 15 to remain in Him. They talk about the way we resist that at our core, and how the gentle nudge from Jesus is always to rest deeply in him. This rhythm leads us to increased fruitfulness in our lives, producing fruit baskets of love, peace, and joy.

It’s Pentecost, which marks the last week of our RESET series. Cindy talks to us about the Holy Spirit and how we see the Spirit function throughout the New Testament. She walks us through what that implies for us today–how the same Spirit from the early church is the one we experience in the 21st century, and ways to tune into the Spirit’s presence in our daily lives. Listen in!

YOU are God’s plan.
For our next episode of our RESET series, Jessie dives into Acts 1, setting us up for Pentecost this upcoming Sunday. She talks about the Holy Spirit as an entity, and how we are empowered by this same spirit to bring light into the darkness around us–not work we can do on our own, but how we are invited to participate with and bring the kingdom now.

“It’s not that we serve a withholding God, it’s that we tell a generous God we don’t want his generosity.” Jessie talks to us today about Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 10 about radical dependence on God, discipleship, and our Western idols of money, independence and comfort. Listen in!

For today’s episode of our Eastertide series, Andrew talks about a quality of Jesus that we often skip over or ignore–that he is humble and gentle, that his yoke is light and easy. He encourages us to set down the heavy burdens we insist on carrying, the burdens that leave us continually unfulfilled, anxious, stressed, and exhausted, and receive Jesus’ light yoke.
Plus, engage with a listening prayer exercise called Lectio Divina at the end of the episode.
Listen in!

Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.
They asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?”
“They have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I don’t know where they have put him.” At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus.
He asked her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for?”
Thinking he was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him.”
Jesus said to her, “Mary.”
She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”
Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her.
- John 20: 11-18
Jesus is calling your name. Meditate on this passage and spend some time with Isaac's art today. What is striking you?
#redemptionhill #artists #lent #journeywithjesus #easter
It’s Eastertide, and with that, a powerful episode from Jessie on our desires, needs, and why we are afraid to be vulnerable and present those to Jesus. She takes us through several narratives of Jesus, ending with the resurrection and his appearance to Mary Magdalene and the other disciples. Jesus is always present with us, and wants to hear in our voices what we want from him. Whether you’re feeling disillusioned with what feels like a distant Jesus or full of praise and hope this Easter, this episode is for you!

Easter is tomorrow! We can't wait to gather together and celebrate the pivotal event that is the center of the Kingdom of God- resurrection and new life, hopeful and unexpected!

But as he came closer to Jerusalem and saw the city ahead, he began to weep. “How I wish today that you of all people would understand the way to peace. But now it is too late, and peace is hidden from your eyes. Before long your enemies will build ramparts against your walls and encircle you and close in on you from every side. They will crush you into the ground, and your children with you. Your enemies will not leave a single stone in place, because you did not recognize it when God visited you.”- Luke 19:41-44
How often do we fail to miss God in our ordinary moments? When God is present but we do not recognize it as God?
This Holy Week, tune your hearts, eyes, and ears to your present with the intent of noticing God with Us. God is there; let us learn more and more how to recognize God!
#holyweek #redemptionboise #luke #presentjesus #visiblejesus
"As he rode along, the crowds spread out their garments on the road ahead of him. When he reached the place where the road started down the Mount of Olives, all of his followers began to shout and sing as they walked along, praising God for all the wonderful miracles they had seen.
“Blessings on the King who comes in the name of the Lord!
Peace in heaven, and glory in highest heaven!”
But some of the Pharisees among the crowd said, “Teacher, rebuke your followers for saying things like that!”
He replied, “If they kept quiet, the stones along the road would burst into cheers!”" - Luke 19
Meditate on this passage and beautiful art piece by Robin Meacham today. Take time to praise God for all the miracles you've seen in your life. Resist explaining them away!

For our final episode of Journey with Jesus before Easter, Bob walks us through not only the Palm Sunday narrative, but the events directly preceding and following what is known as the Triumphant Entry. He weaves together the story of Zaccheus, one of Jesus’ parables, Jesus weeping over Jerusalem, and turning over the tables in the temple to demonstrate Jesus’ desire for us to be in friendship and relationship with everyone in love. Jesus did not want us to make barriers to entry, but to tear down the dividing walls of hostility in our homes, churches, and crowds.
