Good God

This is a part of my previous podcast series GOOD GOD.

If you're looking for the UNINTENTIONAL COMMUNITY podcast it will be higher up in your feed.

Artist / Writing / Pastor / No-Introduction-Needed - ROB BELL has been a hero of mine for years, which is why I sound like a small excited child in this conversation! Coming to you from a church kitchen in Laguna Beach, Rob skipped his dinner to sit down with me and chat about the CREATIVE side of his work. From short films to live tours to rock bands, we talk about the artist in the theologian, and what it might look like for the two to live in harmony.

But seriously everyone, Rob-freaking-Bell. Swoooon.

Artist / Social Work / Community / Justice / Creativity / Burn Out - MEGHAN SCHUURMAN is a powerhouse! From running an arts program for underprivledged youth to helping congregations create art together, Meghan lives at the intersection of justice and creativity. We got a chance to hang out and talk more about creativity, burn out, gentrification, church, and a bunch of other goodness!

The Homeless Gospel Choir / Musician / Punk Rocker / Author - DEREK ZANETTI travels all the way to Hamilton to talk about food, systematic evil, spirituality, the Christian Music Industry, and what it means to be punk rock. 

Author / Professor / Church Planter / Missiologist / Bloggy Blogger - DAVID FITCH leaves Chicago behind him to visit his ol' stomping ground of Hamilton. Fitch shares reflections on ROOM DYNAMICS(!), life, church, city life, parenting, and the future of the church in North America.

My 90 year old Grandma! / My Mom! / Three Gen / since 1920 / Christmas / WW2 / The Depression / Gender - GRANDMA EILEEN SCHNARR (and LESLIE MAKINS) sit down to reminisce about years gone by in this Very Special Christmas Edition of GOOD GOD!

Urban Dweller / Atheist-with-a-heart-of-gold / Graphic Designer / Craftsman / Social Justice Advocate - MATT JELLY puts on his Sunday Best to explore how we can fundamentally disagree on "God", and yet love one another and serve our city together. Also talk about podcasting, politics, justice, and BATMAN!

Most Charming Accent / Church Planting / How Do You Fund This? / Eugene Peterson Quoting / ACTUAL Pastoring / Anxiety & Worry - MATT PAMPLIN brings his accent to the table to laugh through the most overwhelming questions, and poorly quote Eugene Peterson with me.

Faith Forward / GOOD Children and Youth Ministry / Inter-Generational /  Beyond Preservation / Progressive and/or Emergent Church - DAVE CSINOS sits down to talk about how to actually disciple kids in a way that is trusting, mutual and deeply rooted.

Jesus Feminist / Pastor / Death & Grief / Family - LEANNE FRIESEN talks about being a woman in a (traditionally) man's world, acting like Jesus, what to do when loved ones die, and what dignity looks like! She's so so cool, and funny, and nice, and wise!
