I talked recently with Becky Garrison, religious satirist, recent author of JESUS DIES FOR THIS? and contributor to the BANNED QUESTIONS series.
We hit on several issues that mainline churches are wrestling with around sex, sexuality and social justice. Becky shared her views about Sojourners Magazine's decision not to run an ad in a recent issue welcoming GLBTQ people into church, and on the risk and responsibilities of public figures who take on the responsibility of being a prophetic voice on behalf of the Christian Gospel.

This is from a radio show I was invited to be a part of on KCSJ 590 AM in Pueblo Colorado with Randy Thurston called "Pueblo Now." The topic was alternative media voices and why they are important for consumers and to encourage a vital community.

We look at another question presented in the forthcoming book, BANNED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BIBLE: Aren’t women treated poorly throughout the bible? Why would any intelligent modern woman today even want to read the bible?

This podcast explores the first question presented in the forthcoming book, BANNED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BIBLE: Can I be a Christian if I don't believe the Bible is perfect, handed down directly from God to humanity without error?

The following is an edited-down version of the keynote lecture I gave to the Young Adults Disciples gathering in Las Vegas in October, 2010. The message discusses privilege, what it means to be white, the nature of violence, and how we can creatively respond to systems of oppression and injustice without responding in kind with violence.
There is also an audio clip from an interview of Nell Irvin Painter, author of The History of White People, with Stephen Colbert.

I know, this isn't me even though it's my podcast once again, but it was a great day for our church. Wanted to share.
On Sunday, April 25th, 2010, Jose Morales Jr. our denomination’s Transitional Regional Minister, offered the message at Milagro Christian Church in Pueblo, Colorado. The title of his sermon is “Authentic Worship,” and he is introduced by Amy Piatt, co-founder and pastor of Milagro.

A friend of mine, Jarrod McKenna is a self-described Peace Activist and is one of a handful of voices today that is helping to present a radically new perspective - at least compared with modern culture - on how to live out the values of the Christian faith.
Jarrod is a contributor to two of my upcoming books, Banned Questions About the Bible and Banned Questions About Jesus, both coming out in 2011. His ideas are engaging and sometimes a little bit scary. But one thing is for sure: the guy lives what he believes.
If you've wondered what all the fuss is about the emergent Christian movement, take some time to listen to what Jarrod has to share in a recent interview on an Australian radio station.
