In this week's episode author, therapist, theologian, and former college classmate, Mark Karris, joins me to talk about his latest book, "Divine Echoes: Reconciling Prayer With The Uncontrolling Love Of God". We talk specifically about how to pray during the process of deconstruction and tackle the question of what does it look like to pray to a God you are realizing you don't understand?
Enjoy!

In this week's episode we sit down with author and activist, Shane Claiborne to talk about his book "Irresistible Revolution", a book that made a big impact on me when I was younger. Shane talks to us about what it was like to work with Mother Teresa in Calcutta and the importance of proximity when it comes to taking a stand on behalf of people who are oppressed. This is a super fun episode, enjoy!

We're heading into part 3 of our series, "Processing the Goose" and this week we're sitting down with my friend Bob Gregory who I met at Wild Goose last year and connected with again this year. He talks with me a little bit about my experience at the festival and shares with us some of his biggest takeaways as well. Check it out and then go check his podcast over at GOD IS AN ELEPHANT (AND LEAVE A RATING FOR HIM AND HIS CO-HOST, SEBASTIAN ... capitalized to get your attention. HA!).

It's part 2 of our series "Processing the Goose" where I'm talking through some of my biggest takeaways from this year's Wild Goose Festival. This week we talk about the idea of "disowning God" and recognizing that Christianity (or any religion, for that matter) doesn't own the rights to God and how taking off my Evangelical Glasses has helped open up my eyes to a more inclusive reading of Scripture.

This is part 1 of our 4 part series, “Processing the Goose”. Back in July I was able to attend the Wild Goose Festival in Hot Springs, NC and came away with a LOT to process. This week I’ll share a bit about (1) some areas of grief in my life as well as (2) how I’ve been dealing with some criticism that’s come my way as a result of the What If Project and (3) what it’s been like to experience an evolution of faith that has moved me considerably beyond the god I grew up believing in.

It's week FOUR of our series, "Glenn's Friends" and today I'm sitting down with Pastor Danny Prada from Heartway Church in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Pastor Danny is not your typical pastor as he tackles topics from the pulpit that others might shy away from. He's not afraid to talk about things like hell, eternal life, salvation, sexuality, etc. and come at the topics from a point of view that would challenge most people's traditions. In today's chat we talk about Pastor Danny's thoughts about the Gospel, eternal life, and how to talk to people who aren't a fan of your beliefs about God. Enjoy!
