The problem with resurrection, is that it is so hard to believe in it...
Yet despite the overwhelming evidence of death, the christian community of faith has insisted not only in believing, but in practices of resurrection! This week Maicon Steuernagel invites us into the practice of vulnerability, starting with one of the main leaders of the early church, the apostle Peter.
Welcome to the practice of vulnerability. Welcome to OiC in the Land of the Living!

The middle of the sea seems like an odd place to look for the living. But then again, where do we look for the living Christ in the land of the living?
This week, Maicon Steuernagel joins Peter and his friends as they go fishing and try to sort out this new reality in which Christ is resurrected yet seems to slip our hold. They find a miracle, but it quickly fades to the background for something more important: breakfast!
Welcome to meals with the living Christ. Welcome to OiC in the Land of the Living!

"Why do you look for the living among the dead?"
This Easter Sunday, Maicon Steuernagel follows the women to the tomb, where we go to honor the dead and tend to our grief. Yet as we are met by resurrection and life, we are left with the question: how do we seek a living Christ in the land of the Living?

“Children want a future, not alms”
"Sounds good," he thought, staring at these words written on a sign by a traffic light in Brazil. "But I wonder if that future would somehow come back and feed their empty bellies this night".
This week Maicon Steuernagel listens to Jesus, John and a blind man healed of his own blindness but not free from the blindness of others. How do our communities of faith deal with the necessary discomfort of opening our eyes?
