One foot in and one foot out. Christians in business and churches run like businesses. What does success look like and how much is too much? We bat some of these ideas around in Episode 46 with our friends Charlie Meyer and David Bell. Charlie and David are successful and influential...and they wrestle with how to define success and influence as they continue to follow Jesus. Join us as for this conversation on how to stay prophetic with our profits.

Most of us will spend somewhere between 25%-35% of our lives at work. Ask most people if they like their job and you'll hear something along the lines of, "there's good days and bad days" and then the conversation probably dies off. Though there's much dissatisfaction around our working lives, all of us want to be connected to meaningful work. Dave and Beth Booram join us to talk about the idea of vocation. They share their own dark times on their way to doing what they love as they contribute to the world.

Welcome back to the 4th and final part of our legendary story about 6 friends traveling through a slot canyon out west. In this episode, we talk about the theology around why bad things happen to good people. Why did Ben get stuck? Was it random or a "divine setup"? We'll also talk about what it means to belong to a group of people as we travel throughout life and if it's possible to do that without an organized gathering place from week to week.

One of Dancefloor Podcast's tag lines is that (sometimes) our conversations provoke discoveries. Andrew Fritz, from Episode 13, rejoins us on Episode 44 to talk about how overwhelming disconnection may wake us up to the need for deep human connection. Having undergone painful personal circumstances, Andrew continues to confront how loneliness and intimacy interact as we seek healthy relationships.

Welcome back to our story about 6 friends on a legendary journey. As children, we all have fears; public speaking, the dark, quicksand. In the canyon, quicksand is a real threat and we found ourselves right in the middle of it halfway through our trip. Several of us fell in but our friend, Ben, got stuck...for some time. In this episode (Part 3), we tell the story of what it took to dig him out.

Welcome back to part 2 of our story about 6 friends and their legendary journey through the wilderness. Part 1 was about the characters. Part 2 is about the setting, the actual canyon. We talk about the sacred spaces that pilgrims who have gone before have found by getting lost and the altars they've built to remember their journey.

Chris Carpenter is the Licensee and Organizer for TEDxIndianpolis and TEDxIndianapolisWomen. He has coached and mentored speakers and organizers from 30-40 other TEDx events all over the world. Episode 43 explores the idea that TED creates a platform where information and knowledge are free. If information and knowledge are power, are we wielding all of this "free power" to actually make the world a better place...or is this another outlet for consumerism?

6 friends packed for a 5 day, 5 night hike through a slot canyon somewhere between Utah and Arizona. This space always allows for big conversations about life, death, God, friendship, and intimacy. Maybe it's because there are real threats out in the desert...untameable, uncontrollable forces of nature. This is part 1 of a 4 part story about knowing one another more deeply and how to stick together when a friend gets stuck.

On Episode 42, we explore grief and loss and how they affect the trajectory of a life. Ash Wednesday and the Lenten Season represent a time for many people to consider what life is truly about. We are reminded that life is short and precious. Our friend, Meredith Hayden, has experienced pain in many and varied ways over the past few years. She has been pressed but not crushed and continues to look for ways to contribute meaningfully to the world around her.

Nature Deficit Disorder is a phrase coined by accomplished author and journalist, Richard Louv, to describe our children's disconnect with the natural world and the negative effects as a result. On Episode 40, we tackle this issue with White Pine Wilderness Founder and Director, Matt Shull. Join us as we discover what benefits the primitive skills movement has to offer our children (and the rest of us) as we reconnect with nature.
