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.

Wisdom 6:12-19 | Psalm 63:1-8 | 1 Peter 1:3-9 | John 11:17-27
In this week's episode we are talking about the testimony of Women. In particular the powerful testimony, however simple, of Martha in Bethany after the death of Lazarus.
- What voices are we missing when we tell the story of Jesus? Have we captured and spent time with all of the witnesses?
- What is our own testimony?
- What do we know to be true about Jesus, and how do we share that Good News with others?
