Are you struggling with seeing so many people embrace Christian Nationalism? What does the Bible say about how to move and act as Christians in today's society? Should politics be preached from the pulpit? Today we dig deep with Pastor Josh Scott about all that and more! Join us!ABOUT OUR GUEST:Josh Scott is the Lead Pastor of GracePointe Church in Nashville and the author of Parables: Putting Jesus’s Stories in Their Place. His work helps people reimagine faith through a progressive Christian lens—bringing historical context and practical compassion to the Bible. He’s also written Bible Stories for Grown-Ups, Cross-Examined  and Context: Putting Scripture in it’s place.Parables presents a core idea that Jesus’ parables aren’t simple morality tales; they are disruptive, context-rooted stories about the kingdom of God that challenge assumptions about power, justice, and community.Connect with Josh:His Website: https://www.joshscott.co/His Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/josh_a_scott/His Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/joshuaadamscott----Our Enneagram prompts today:1. Thinking (Intellectual Exploration) Jesus’ parables invite us to look at the world with fresh eyes. The wineskin story challenges our capacity for change, our resilience, and our growing self-awareness. Ask: “What old frameworks or assumptions can no longer contain our new way of being? What fresh perspective is asking for our attention right now?”2. Feeling (Emotional Connection) Fresh starts stir up mixed emotions—grief for what we leave behind and anticipation for what lies ahead. Ask: “What feelings surface when we consider letting go of ‘old wineskins’? Where do we notice both resistance and excitement within ourselves?”3. Doing (Action & Application) The parable reminds us that change is embodied. Ask: “What small, concrete action can we take today to steward the ‘new wine’ in our lives?”---The Fresh Start Podcast: When you know it’s time to be curious, think differently, and hit reset!Hosted by Marcia Ramirez and Stacey Wynn, MDIV, PCChttps://www.thefreshstartpodcast.comJoin our Facebook group: HereFollow us on Instagram: HereWatch us on YouTube: HereMarcia Ramirez is a singer/songwriter, author and non-profit director.
