Description

So often, we find ourselves sitting next to people in church—people with fascinating stories and incredible expertise—and yet we miss the chance to truly know them. What if we slowed down and took the time to hear how each of us spends our days, how we wrestle with life, and how God is working in our stories? Join us as we journey into the lives of everyday folks from The Village Church here in Tucson, Arizona. These are people just like you, who are willing to open up and share their lives. Through honest conversations, we’ll tackle big ideas and practical ways to engage our communities, helping one another see what it looks like to live out our faith in tangible ways. We’ll explore topics like race, disability, advocacy, and faith, inviting guests to share their unique perspectives and skills. Together, we’ll look for ways to use what we’ve been given to connect, serve, and ultimately bring healing to our city.

#4021 Project Bible: The Prequel to The Chariot's of Fire (Elijah and Elisha)
2026/05/06
Send us Fan Mail In this Healing the City podcast, Pastor Eric and Pastor Mark have a Bible Project–style conversation about the events leading up to Elijah being taken into heaven. They talk through the story of Ahab, Elijah, Elisha, and the chariots of fire, paying close attention to Elisha’s response as his mentor is taken from him. The conversation covers some fascinating parts of Israel’s story, including Ahab’s role as king, Elijah’s prophetic calling, and the strange beauty of a prophet who does not die but is carried away by God. It is thoughtful, layered, and a little funny, especially because both pastors are clearly tired while trying to make sense of one of the Bible’s wildest scenes.
