The Amplified Word
The Amplified Word is a podcast by Christ Episcopal Church in Dayton, Ohio, to accompany each week’s lessons from the new lectionary, beginning in Advent. Episodes will focus on lifting up the stories, highlighting particular themes or changes that Dr. Gafney makes in her translation, and connecting the readings to our lives. Each episode is preceded by a bonus episode with a reading of the weekly lessons by a female or nonbinary member of the Christ Church community.

- Where can you see Resurrection in the world around you? How do you carry Resurrection with you during times of challenge or difficulty?
- Who is proclaiming the Good News of Resurrection to us in Scripture, and in our life?
- How can we be like Mary Magdalene and the other women at the Resurrection who carry the message of Jesus Christ's Resurrection to others?
