Historically the modern evangelical church has been pretty prescriptive about what you must believe. And if you are uncertain in those beliefs, your faith is called into question. What if you could hold spirituality and uncertainty in tension? I believe that you can. And when you do, you understand what it means to be deeply spiritual but rather uncertain.

Tuesday Sep 24, 2024
In this episode, I interview my friend John Ellis of Tree 63 fame. We talk about the music and the spiritual journey of death and resurrection. Or as Father Richard Rhor loves to say, "order, disorder, and reorder". It's a journey of struggle and hope and a fantastic music catalog that speaks to it all.

Personal Being or Divine Presence
Tuesday Sep 12, 2023
Tuesday Sep 12, 2023
For all my life, I have understood God to be a personal being rather than some impersonal force. But in recent months the idea of God as a personal being has seemed a very limiting understanding of God. The understanding of God as Divine Presence has become more relevant and helpful for me. So which is it? Personal God or Divine Presence?

Seeing Salvation Through a Wider Lens
Thursday Jun 01, 2023
Thursday Jun 01, 2023
The words Salvation or Saved or Savior appears about 500 times in the Bible. For most of my life every time I read the word I assumed it was ultimately talking about going to heaven when you die. In this episode, I want to explain why I believe that assumption is absolutely wrong!

Seeing Faith Through a Wider Lens
Thursday Mar 09, 2023
Thursday Mar 09, 2023
Sometimes we think of faith only in terms of what we believe about God. But what if faith is much bigger and broader and more transformative than that? And what if what we believe about God, carries much less importance than we always thought?
