Episode Synopsis

In episode 38 of Sermons on the Side, we trace a surprising thread between history, memory, and our own tendency to retreat into hiding places. Inspired by Candace Millard’s account of Winston Churchill’s daring escape during the Boer War, we reflect on a striking moment when Churchill, though technically free, still felt trapped by fear and uncertainty. She powerfully writes, "He could not remain where he was.…Yet neither could he run." That picture of hiding even in freedom sparked a meaningful conversation about the places we withdraw to in our own lives - whether out of fear, shame, busyness, or comfort. Richard also shares a personal story of being greeted by a trusted friend with staggering words, “Hey man, where you been hiding?” - a phrase that can hit closer to home than we often realize. Join us as we wrestle with what it means to step out of hiding, to be known, and to live into the freedom God has already given us.Send us a textSermons on the Side Bible Readings Connect with us on our FACEBOOK page Connect with us on INSTAGRAM @sermons_on_the_side_podcast Check out our website HERE Love the show?
