Big news! Rick is re-launching his podcast Paying Ridiculous Attention to Jesus after a year-long sabbatical. Even bigger and better news—the Becky-nator will be joining him again to co-host. So check out the Episode 6 of Season 8 “Sitting at the Wrong End of the Table”—a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Rick and Becky will be exploring themes drawn from his upcoming book (releasing June 4) titled Editing Jesus. In this episode we’ll explore one of Jesus’ most practical teachings—this one is embedded in something that was happening in the moment, and it’s a huge help to those of us (which is all of us) living in a cultural ecosystem of self-promotion and narcissism.

Season 8 Episode 2 - Sitting At The Wrong End Of The Table

Big news! We’ve re-launched Paying Ridiculous Attention to Jesus after a year-long sabbatical. Even bigger and better news—the Becky-nator is joining Rick again to co-host. So check out Episode 3 of Season 8 - “The Exclusionary Jesus” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Rick and Becky will be exploring themes drawn from his upcoming book (releasing June 4) titled Editing Jesus. In this episode we dive into a hard truth… Yes, Jesus was radically inclusive when he offered marginalized people dignity, or when he elevated women and Gentiles from a place of scorn, or when He chose to hang out with, and even honor, “sinners” like tax collectors and prostitutes. But when we make inclusion the superseding mission of Jesus on earth, we inevitably edit out His many, many hard boundaries and exclusions. We’ll focus on how exclusionary He often is, and discover how exclusion reflects His heart of love for us…

Season 8 Episode 3 - The Exclusionary Jesus

Big news! We’ve re-launched Paying Ridiculous Attention to Jesus after a year-long sabbatical. Even bigger and better news—the Becky-nator is joining Rick again to co-host. So check out Episode 4 of Season 8 - “Mercy, Mercy, Mercy” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Rick and Becky will be exploring themes drawn from his upcoming book (releasing June 4) titled Editing Jesus. In this episode we dive into a way of living that seems, well, weak—but in the weakness of this way living is our greatest strength. If we’re walking in the way of Jesus, then mercy, mercy, mercy will be our path. When is it okay to show mercy if a person has “broken the rules”? What’s your “line of mercy”—when you might offer it, and when you might not? And how do you invite and embrace mercy in your life?

Season 8 Episode 4 - Mercy, Mercy, Mercy

Join Rick and the Becky-nator for Episode 7 of Season 8 - “Peculiar People” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Rick and Becky will be exploring themes drawn from his just-released book titled Editing Jesus. In this episode we explore why Peter calls the followers of Jesus “peculiar people”—of course, we translate that as… odd people. And, just being real, some of us are odd… Maybe we’re all odd in some way. But that’s not what Peter really means here. And the distinction is really important for us… We are called, as followers of Jesus, to live out the values and priorities of an unseen kingdom while we live our everyday lives in the seen kingdom. How does that work again?

Season 8 Episode 7 - Peculiar People

Join Rick and the Becky-nator for Episode 8 of Season 8 - “Losing Our Chaff” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Here Rick and Becky explore themes drawn from his just-released book titled Editing Jesus. In this episode they continue their deep dive into the “core” of Jesus’s mission—it’s not to plant a new religious movement, or to reset our moral compass, or to warn us of the consequences of rejecting a relationship with God. The mission of Jesus is, simply, to restore what is broken in our relationship with God—our ability to trust, and to be trusted. Once trust is broken in that ancient encounter with the serpent in the garden, it can’t be forced or coerced or controlled into alignment. It has to be romanced. So let’s explore what trust really looks like, and how we can recover intimacy in our relationship with Jesus…

Season 8 Episode 8 - Losing Our Chaff

Join Rick and the Becky-nator for Episode 8 of Season 10 - “What Maturity Is, and Isn’t” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Here Rick and Becky explore themes drawn from his just-released book titled Editing Jesus. In this episode they explore maturity—Jesus is always inviting us to live our lives by the values, priorities, and norms of an unseen kingdom. He calls it the Kingdom of God. And He says those who “fit” in this unseen kingdom are childlike in their relationship with Him. And He says this childlike-ness is actually what maturity looks like. The more childlike we are in the way we relate to Him and follow Him and live out our purpose in the world, the more mature we are. And all of this is tied to our relationship with the Spirit of Jesus, the “rabbi inside” who is always available to us. A Spirit-dependent life is also a maturing life…

Season 8 Episode 10 - What Maturity Is, and Isn't

Join Rick and the Becky-nator for Episode 8 of Season 11 - “The Enemy” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Here Rick and Becky explore themes drawn from his just-released book Editing Jesus. In this episode they continue “reverse-engineering” back from Jesus—that means we have to account for His relationship with the supernatural, and what He says our relationship with the supernatural will be like, even if that makes us uncomfortable. One of Rick’s friends sometimes asks, as a kind of greeting, “How’s your relationship with Satan?” He always follows that with: “We all have one.” It’s a lighthearted way to surface a real issue. Satan is called “the enemy of God,” and Jesus tells us the Kingdom-standard for love is “loving our enemies and praying for those who persecute us.” Does that mean we’re, somehow, supposed to love the enemy of God? Here we explore the difference in posture Jesus models toward flesh-and-blood enemies, and enemies that inhabit “the unseen world.”

Season 8 Episode 11 - The Enemy

We’re back! Join Rick and the Becky-nator for a new season of Paying Ridiculous Attention to Jesus—Episode 2 of Season 9 - “The Light of the World” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Here Rick and Becky explore themes drawn from his new book Editing Jesus. In this episode they continue their expedition into the heart of Jesus—discovering why “light” is so often used as a descriptor for His impact in the world. Light has many forms, and that helps explain how Jesus-as-light is working in our lives in such diverse ways. And we learn what it looks like to carry His light into the nooks and crannies of our own world. Here we slow down and re-embrace the meaning of “light of the world,” as if we’re experiencing it for the first time…

Season 9 Episode 2 - The Light of the World

Join Rick and the Becky-nator for a new adventure in Paying Ridiculous Attention to Jesus—Episode 3 of Season 9 - “You’ve Got All My Love” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Here Rick and Becky explore themes drawn from his new book Editing Jesus. In this episode they continue their expedition into the heart of Jesus—discovering the answer to what seems like an obvious question, but isn’t: What is love? We explore what we think we know about love, and then re-enter that exploration as children and explore what love is, wholly based on how Jesus reveals the meaning of love…

Season 9 Episode 3 - You've Got All My Love

Join Rick and the Becky-nator for a new adventure in Paying Ridiculous Attention to Jesus—Episode 3 of Season 9 - “Our Right-Now Eternity” - a continuation of the series “THE WAYS OF JESUS.” Here Rick and Becky explore themes drawn from his new book Editing Jesus. In this episode they continue their expedition into the heart of Jesus, and what He means by “eternal life.” It’s so much more than a ticket to heaven—it’s the life we enter into when we commit ourselves to Him, the way a bride and groom commit to each other… Eternity is not a place or the afterlife, it is our life… Right now, in the present.

Season 9 Episode 4 - Our Right-Now Eternity

Rick Lawrence, author of Jesus-Centered Life, unpacks what it means to live a life that pays ridiculous attention to Jesus. Each episode zooms in on a story of Jesus and looks at it to answer two very basic questions. Who do I say Jesus is? Who does Jesus say I am?
