Fantastic to hang out with

and this week. Brian is an author, speaker, activist, public theologian, and a friend who’s helped me a lot over the years. I’ve read many, many of his books and am really glad to have him on the channel today to talk about …

  • authoritarianism and why it’s alive and well in our world

  • why it’s a left wing and a right wing problem

  • creativity and writing

  • the 40 day indigenous vision quest of Jesus

  • relational theology and how events are things that happen to us in the midst of change

  • and much more, including the world premiere of the opening line of a song i composed while in a interview with a church last year, which goes … “I’d rather be hiking thinkin’ about God than sitting in church thinkin’ about hiking.” And if you ask, I will give the rest of the lyrics. 😂

Oh, btw, there’s still time to register for open and relational theology conference (ORTCON 25) in the Grand Tetons. It’s one of my favorite theology events of the year! And guess what, I’ll be there. Tori will be there. And Brian will be as well. You should join us!

Peace everyone, next week’s conversation is with

!
