Jesus, Justice & Mercy Bold faith, radical love, and justice for the church. Welcome to Jesus, Justice & Mercy — a podcast for Christians who sense that justice matters but feel the tension between Jesus and much of what they see practiced in the church. If you’re wrestling with inherited faith, questions that don’t have easy answers, or the growing gap between the Gospel and the world we’re navigating, you’re not alone. I’m your host, Kristen Brock, rooted in the church and committed to following Jesus with honesty, courage, and compassion. Each season, we engage Scripture, history, and lived experience to explore the intersections of faith, justice, and discipleship. We talk about race, trauma, power, civic responsibility, and the ways faith has been both a source of harm and a force for healing. Whether you’re deconstructing, rebuilding, or simply learning to ask better questions, this is a space

Pentecost and social justice belong in the same sentence, and this Season 3 finale makes the case that they always have. This episode goes back to the room before the wind came. The locked room. Full of frightened, griev
Mental health in the church is one of the most underprepared gaps in the Christian community, and for families in crisis, that gap has real consequences. This episode is personal. Kristen reads a piece of writing kept pr
Women in church leadership is not a new idea; it's a biblical one. The record is full of women leading, prophesying, teaching, and apostling. The church just worked very hard to make you forget them. In this episode, we
Grief doesn’t arrive alone. It brings everything you’ve ever lost with it. And the church has rarely known what to do with that. In this episode, we sit with the women of Scripture who grieved loudly, honestly, and witho

Centering prayer isn’t about emptying your mind or saying the right things. According to Kieawnie Clar, it’s about finally stopping and letting God do what God needs to do. In this episode of Jesus, Justice and Mercy, Kr
What does it mean to offer care to people the church has already harmed? Conscious Coore, founder of Flamingo Trauma Recovery and educator in trauma-informed spiritual care, has been answering that question for years. In
He is Risen. It is the most important sentence in human history. But we have treated it as the period at the end of the sentence when it was always meant to be the opening. This episode slows down inside the actual resur
Holy Week lament is not a detour from the Easter story, it is the part we keep skipping. In this episode, we slow down and walk the full arc of Holy Week: two processions entering Jerusalem from opposite directions, the
Scripture used against women has been one of the most damaging tools in evangelical culture, and today we're naming it directly. What if the church didn't just get it wrong? What if it used scripture to make sure you bla
Christian mercy and justice don't begin with grand gestures or perfect plans. They begin with a morning. A cup of coffee. The weight of a world that feels too broken to fix. And the question so many of us are carrying ri
Neighborhood justice may not be what you think. Every day for over thirty years, Fred Rogers changed his shoes, hung up his jacket, and asked the same question: won't you be my neighbor? He understood something the churc
Reconciliation without repair won’t hold. In this episode, we explore why Scripture consistently ties reconciliation to restitution, accountability, and honest repair. From Nehemiah rebuilding Jerusalem’s walls, to the r
When certainty cracks and the foundations you once trusted feel unstable, it's easy to believe something has gone wrong. But what if disorientation isn't the opposite of faith? What if it's where deeper formation begins?
White Christian nationalism shaped more than politics. It shaped discipleship. In this episode, Kristen traces the formation story beneath today’s headlines. Long before it became a political slogan, white Christian nati
The Cost of Staying Awake can feel unbearable. This week isn’t a teaching episode ; it’s a lament. In this raw and personal reflection, Kristen shares how cultural hypocrisy, sacred language used as cover, and the grief
