More Than This

Kate and Dave sit down to talk about how inherited faith gets adopted, adapted, or rejected.

This episode features a fun conversation with pastor Jeff Cannell on how to serve and minister through social media. Listen to this before you give up hope on Facebook, Twitter, and the rest.

Kate and Dave talk about the merits and demerits of social media and how to stay sane and humane in online life. Maybe you shouldn’t give up on it just yet. Enjoy.

Have you ever felt tension and disconnection from the political party you affiliate with in the US’s two-party system? Today, guest Rachael Jones talks about what it’s like to be a Republican and a social justice activist in the age of partisan rancor and the presidency of Donald Trump.

On this episode, we talk about what it’s like when your body feels like it’s one place but your sense of identity is somewhere else. Brooke’s friends Isàbel and Arris join us to talk about the impact of their recent international move, and we think that anyone who has gone through serious transition will be able to relate.

How should we think about and interact with those we feel are fundamentally different than us in some way? We are seeing the limits of tolerance, so what should we do?

This episode focuses on how to think about systems of racial injustice. Kate and Dave talk about viewing a response to recent events as Christians who have studied sociology and political science. It’s a bit heavy, but it’s an important episode.

In this episode, Brooke and David discuss some new growth coming out of the pandemic we are enduring. It’s a hopeful followup to the episode they did a few months ago on lament.

This episode begins by continuing a series of interviews by Kara Hartman talking to kids about the coronavirus pandemic. Today's child guest is Julia Jones. Then Dave sits down with his friend Chris Dabbs to talk about the topic of atheism. We’re calling this episode Losing My Religion? to indicate the point that belief and non-belief is not necessarily the best distinction to draw between atheists and religionists. 

Kate and Dave catch up on what they are thinking about and what life is like during coronavirus. They end with giving their recommendations for things to watch and read during all this time we are spending at home. Stay tuned for an interview with a special guest at the end.
