Irenicast - A Progressive Christian Podcast

Understanding rape culture is a vital issue today. What is rape culture? What reality does it reflect? When did it begin? Who is responsible for creating it? This week Jeff, Mona and Allen take on the difficult topic of rape culture and discuss it from both male and female perspectives. They also discuss theologies of sexuality and ending dominance, with an honest conversation about what the Bible may or may not offer for a contemporary sexual ethic. In the effort to take a break from heavy conversation, the team ends with a game of Sort of Scattergories.

On the dawn of election day 2016 Jeff, Mona and Allen discuss compassion fatigue. What do you do when you're tired of caring? When you're tired of believing anything is going to change? These are questions many people who desire to be a part of a bigger solution face. And although no one really has the answers, it helps to talk about it and know we are not alone in our occasional desire to give up. And since it is election day we close out the episode with our own exercise in democracy in a segment called Biblical Elections.

A God's Not Dead 2 review is the subject of this bonus episode. Adam and Dylan are back and join Jeff for another addition of Divine SINema. This movie takes place in the same town as the first God's Not Dead. It is about a teacher named Grace who is a Christian and a teacher at a public school called Martin Luther King Jr. High. During a lesson on the civil rights movement a student asks about Jesus' words in connection to Martin Luther King Jr. and Gandhi's non-violent protests. Grace answers by confirming that Martin Luther King Jr. especially was indeed influenced by the teaching of Jesus. When word gets out that Grace talked about Jesus in her classroom it leads to outrage among the school officials, community and even the ACLU. Things escalate quickly causing Grace to face a jury of her peers for her actions. Ultimately it is Jesus himself that is put on trial.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Our next Divine SINema episode will be on Tuesday, November 29th and we will be reviewing the first ever rapture movie called If Footmen Tire You, What Will Horses Do (1971).

This movie is not available anywhere else but YouTube. If you would like to watch in preparation for our next Divine SINema you can watch If Footman Tire You, What Will Horses Do? here.

With Halloween 2016 less than a week away from this episode, Jeff and Allen discuss the evolution of Satan. Depending on our religious upbringing we may take for granted that the existence of Satan is a forgone conclusion. But is it? What does the Bible say about Satan? Does the Bible have a consistent narrative about Satan? What other things outside of scripture have we unwittingly accepted as fact regarding the prince of darkness? These are some of the questions we answer. And finally for our segment this week, Jeff and Allen reminisce about their favorite Halloween costumes and memories.

Mona sits down with Lauren Andrea-Lucia to explore what it means to have multiple religious identities. Lauren grew up in Italy with a Catholic father and a Jewish mother, and finds religious and spiritual nourishment in both traditions, identifying as a dual-religious person. Lauren shares her experience of holding both religious identities together, despite their seemingly mutually-exclusive claims to truth. The conversation covers the context of the history of anti-semitism and forced conversions, and explains why the blending of Jewish and Christian religious identity - and inter-religious dialogue in general - is often difficult. She also shares her perspective on what it means to have a religious family heritage, the difference between religion and spirituality, and why ideas of time and memory are so important to faith practice.

In a conversation geared more toward culture than faith Jeff, Mona and Allen explore why young males are disengaging from society. Far from an agreeable conversation about things we can do to reverse this trend, this episode focused on nuanced disagreement about its primary causes. Between video games, easy access to pornography, education, economic factors and a host of other causes, is there a primary one? And more importantly, is there a solution? We finish the episode with a new segment called Staff Picks, where each host gives a few recommendations of things worth checking out.

Is prophecy today simply fortune telling or something else? Jeff, Mona and Allen discuss this deceptively layered topic. Much of the time the rhetoric around prophecy, or the prophetic, or even the hebrew prophets themselves seems so otherworldly. Saturated with mysticism and the divine. Perhaps there is more. And that although all that is true, there is another dimension to the tradition of the prophetic. A practical one. One deeply connected to the real life details and systems we all encounter on a regular basis. And finally in an attempt to divine the thoughts of our co-hosts we play another round of Title Me This.

As part of our celebration of International Podcast Day 2016 we are giving you a bonus episode of Irenicast. Jeff, along with guest co-hosts Adam and Dylan, provide a critical analysis of God's Not Dead. We watch horrible Christian movies so you don't have to. Racial stereotypes, bad theology, one-dimensional characters and the Newsboys come together for this cringe inducing film based off of a bad sermon illustration. God may not be dead, but perhaps the Christian film industry should be.

Art vs. the artist. Can bad people create good things? How closely should we judge someone's work in view of the person themselves? Our co-hosts go in, without concrete answers, to mine for clarity in this nebulous conversation. Two-thirds of our hosts leave this conversation relatively sure how they feel about this topic. One ends up more confused than ever. And finally, for your word-association fix, Jeff, Mona & Allen play another round of Say What?!
