Starlette Thomas of Good Faith Media is your podcast pastor, hosting multiple seasons and special series, sharing stories of where that word, race, met our own, when its meanings were rubbed into our skin, why it gets under our skin, how current events fit in and what the Church in North America can do about it.

It’s the final episode in the Lenten series. Cursed and left to die, Jesus is left out on a limb, left high and dry. Three years of Jesus’ life, how quickly his disciples forget his messages, his miracles, his Messiahship. Not one volunteers to be a character witness, to testify to his goodness. With the religious elite, the government and crowd pa…

We are inching closer to the cross in this Lenten journey. With it comes the darkness of the disciples’ dirty deeds, the painful awareness that even those closest to Jesus would distance themselves from him to save their skin, that Judas would throw away Christ’s ministry for money. Pencils down. Between Mary and Judas, this is a test of loyalty. R…

The crowd wanted Jesus to be the Savior they had in mind. “Save us like this, Jesus. Step right up, Jesus. Come right this way, Jesus. You must be on our side.” But watch the hands. Before Jesus is left out on a limb, he will be greeted with palm branches. “Jesus is coming!” How we prepare the way for Jesus in our lives is its own entrance examen. …

From couching-surfing homelessness to mountaintop experiences, ministry has its ups and downs. On a mountain now and after Jesus’ dress change [translation: transfiguration], Peter, James, John, and Jesus meet Moses and Elijah.

Satan gives Jesus a look behind door number three. “All the earth’s kingdoms could be yours. Just bow down and worship me.” In episode three of this Lenten series, the devil wants Jesus on his knees. Jesus reminds the devil that there is a supreme reality and a “kin-dom” that is not of this world. The “kin-dom” of God is not within the city limits.…

“Don’t play with God.” A childhood reminder to reverence God goes a long way and finds its way in the second episode of this Lenten series. Satan questions Jesus’ identity, challenges his divine connection and, in turn, tests God. Salvation is not a performance, or the leap of faith Satan tempts Jesus to make. Rev. Starlette Thomas is your podcast …

Fresh from the waters of baptism and just before he starts his public ministry, Jesus meets his one-person welcome committee: Satan. Satan not only tests the humanity of Jesus but is also testing the water of baptism. Satan is poking at Jesus’ flesh to see if Jesus has really died to self, to see if divinity will prematurely reveal itself. Satan wa…
