The Substance

185: Rethinking Hell, a Spirituality of Fear, and a God of Radical Love feat. Brian Recker


Listen Later

It's been a crazy week, so the show notes will be short and sweet.


Brian Recker is a public theologian, has a new book on Hell coming out at the end of the month, and I had a great time talking with him. In our conversation we cover:

  • Our mutual love of movies (and solo theater visits)
  • The extremely conservative colleges we attended
  • Hell as a foundational principle
  • Coercive, fear based spirituality
  • Keeping up relationships with family with whom we disagree
  • Progressive purity tests
  • Men's Fall fashion
  • And MORE!


We hope you enjoy the episode. If you do, tell a friend!
