Welcome to a special coffee hour edition of the podcast. As many of you will know we have a new executive director and publisher over here at the Living Church, the Rev. Dr. Matthew Olver. We took some time to talk about how he got to TLC. 

Matthew is an Episcopal priest who has served widely in the Episcopal Church in diocesan, national, and international capacities. Like the eighth editor of The Living Church, H. Boone Porter, he is also a liturgical scholar who taught at Nashotah House Theological Seminary for nearly a decade (2014-23). He's currently also an assistant priest at Zion Episcopal Church in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. 

If you keep listening, you will hear the following:

• How our new executive director stays caffeinated.
• The recognizability of the Church across the ages and why preservation is a dynamic thing.
• Why a seminary professor would want to run a magazine.
• Why we have a blog and what it's doing.
• What he likes about Living Church events.
• And why, when tourists are snapping photos of church architecture, Matthew stands there reading Augustine.

From Matthew's office in Milwaukee to Wheaton to Rome to Ravenna to Oklahoma City and back, we hope you enjoy the conversation.
