Talking the Walk

Talking the Walk: Real People Seeking a Real God

Episode 8

All over the news, social media and the waking conscious of an average American is the inextinguible topic of racism. Partly a response to the sermon listed below from a sister congregation in Minnesota and partly blazing a trail for where this podcast should go, Bob and Tracy kick off a series of discussions surrounding judgementalism, bigotry and fear of the "other". Future episodes will feature multiple guests with a wide range of experiences, perspectives and additions to our discussion.

Episode 4.5

As a wrap up to our Ep. 4 conversation about "Pain and Suffering" thrust upon me because of someone else's actions, we turn to an in-depth interview with Tasha Cambers. Tasha is a working professional, recently admitted to graduate school, and she sits in anticipation of chemotherapy to treat a second battle with cancer in her past year. What is her story? What brings her to a state of contentment with God? And how has her faith grown because of this immense struggle?

Episode 4

Continuing with our topic of "Pain and Suffering," we now shift the conversation to pain experienced by me because of someone else. Just days after a coordinated, very public, ruthless series of life ending terrorist attacks in Paris, Tracy and Bob search for God in the hurt that's not 'my fault.' How does one approach a loved one (or a stranger) who expresses their God-given free will as "Don't tell ME how to live MY life!"

Talking the Walk: Real People Seeking a Real God

Episode 3

Let's dive in. All the way in. We are going to kick off the topical segment of our podcast with no lightweight subject: pain and suffering. If there is a benevolent God why is there so much pain and chaos in the world/universe? How does one reconcile with bad things happening and praying to a loving God? Where should we put our faith when it never seems to be rewarded?

This topic will be split between Episodes 3 and 4 where we will also be joined by two women with powerful stories to tell. Both involve suffering but from two completely different causes, seasons of life, and outcomes in their walks.
