Hey Text and Rockers!

This is part six of a discussion with "the Negro Artist," Caleb Rainey. It is some of our best work in the earlier rendition of the Text and Rock Show, and so I wanted to replay it headed into Black History Month.
 
We hope these episodes make you think, but more importantly, make you actively listen, understand, make friends you might not have, and see the immense worth of people you might not understand until you have shared stories together.

To get started with Caleb's work, visit www.thenegroartist.com or pick up one of his book Look, Black Boy, by clicking Here.

You can contact Mark and Eric at www.textandrock.com or email [email protected].

Hey Text and Rockers!

This one is an original poem about following the Jesus way.

• What is an ethical Christian versus a magic/theological idea of Jesus?
• How the teaching of Jesus best is summarized in one double-love command.
• Love God. Love people. That simple.  

We love you, TXT and RKRS.

Hey Text and Rockers!

This one's all about how we need to keep moving forward in naming God for human thriving to take permanent root.
Join us to talk about

• how humanity names divinity at every stage of cultural evolution...
• an original Text and Rock poem about the Battle of Jericho.
• what does it mean that the commander of God's armies doesn't pick a side?
• what is a theophany?
• the concept of counter-testimony in composite literature.
• a counter-testimony to violence then and now.

We love you, TXT and RKRS!

Hey Text and Rockers!

This one's all about how humanity creates an ideal in divinity and then lives it out, not necessarily the other way around.
Join us to talk about

• how humanity names divinity at every stage of cultural evolution...
• and then that idea pulls us forward morally and intellectually. 
• what is an ancient idol, and how it informs a lot of texts and artifacts.
• journey back to grad school with swift-footed Markilles and talk to Dana.
• how we all have a heart language... and a holy language.

We love you, TXT and RKRS!
