Marginal Activism - A Conversation with David Gill
For many of the people listening and watching, David Gill requires no introduction. But for the uninitiated, let me tell you why David was at the top of the “people I need to talk to” list when we started the Personalist Manifesto(s) project.
Not only is David the founding president of the International Jacques Society—a role he served in for 25 years—he’s been instrumental in introducing Ellul to North Americans.
As the sub-title of his recently published memoir puts it, David is a marginal activist, and in this conversation you’ll hear all about what this means and the critical role Ellul played in David’s marginal activist becoming.
These are the kinds of stories you’ll hear in this interview, and as you hear them, you’ll also hear how Ellul’s mentorship has brought David, his family, and his compatriots into all sorts of interesting, and transformative places. So with that, I am please to share with all of you my recent conversation with David.
Bio
David Gill is an Oakland-based writer and speaker on Christian ethics and workplace/business ethics. He served forty years as an ethics professor at New College Berkeley, North Park University, St. Mary’s College, and Gordon-Conwell Seminary and is the author of ten books, most recently What Are You Doing About It? The Memoir of a Marginal Activist (2022) and Workplace Discipleship 101: A Primer (2020). His twin passions (vocational missions) have been (1) exploring, developing, and articulating a more radically biblical Christian ethic, especially related to work; and (2) exploring, developing, and articulating a more constructive approach to building ethically healthy organizations in a diverse, global marketplace.
