We interview Emily Thompson, a midwife, who happened to deliver four very special children to the hosts of this podcast, including the new daughter of Greg and Ainhoa: Aristeia.

What is the role of technology in medicine? Does technology have to be disempowering? What can the church learn from midwifery?

I've never seen a theological reflection on midwifery, so here's one you may not have been expecting!

Why are the sacraments so hard to understand today when people in former times divided churches over them? How many are there? What do they mean and where do they come from? What would it be like if the church were limited in size to a group who could share in "one bread"? So much to discuss on this topic that hopefully we just whet your appetite!

Is God silent? Is there hope in this age? Is life and the world meaningless? What's the big problem with technology? What does Christianity have to offer that other ways do not? In this episode we introduce French sociologist and theologian Jacques Ellul (1912-1994) and some of his major ideas.

We've learned a lot by actually trying out farming in a largely non-technologically efficient way. Farming is hard work. Grain agriculture is the basis of civilization, and grain agriculture only makes good sense economically with slavery.

This episode will challenge your view of God for the better! God is not the great accountant in the sky, but your rescuer. Jesus cancels debt, he doesn't repay it. Also, stay tuned for the great juxtaposition between two rival gods: Lady Justice and Jesus Christ.

How money isn't the neutral tool we often think it is, but is itself built on a myth that subverts the good news of Jesus Christ with major implications in church theology and practice. This episode is part 1 of 2 looking at Plundering Egypt: A Subversive Christian Ethic of Economy.

In this episode Ainhoa presents Amy and Greg with common questions about the viability of the Old Testament. What do we do with the violence? Can we just proof text? What makes the Old Testament worth reading?

In this episode we talk about what we're trying to do with The Embassy, the vision behind it, challenges we're facing, and how you can join and help! The Embassy is a vision for church-seminary to be reunited under the banner of forming ambassadors of Christ and his kingdom.

In this episode Amy and Ainhoa interview Greg about his newest book Plundering Eden. It includes such provocative ideas like that vegans shouldn't live in skyscrapers, that the outdoors should become our indoors, that all construction is also destruction, and more about the brokenness of the human imagination. But it's all in good humour! Be sure to check out gpwagenfuhr.com to get your copy of the book! Patrons get a healthy discount via coupon code on Patreon.

Dr. Ross Halbach shares insights from his research into Bonhoeffer, Willie Jennings, and race in church history. We discover that race is part of a larger complex including theology, economics, ecology, and more.
