Theology Nerd Throwdown

The One Where We Tried Something New and It Mostly Worked


Listen Later

We opened up the Zoom room and let listeners bring whatever questions they wanted, which turned into one of those sprawling conversations that goes from Karl Popper's tolerance paradox to the unique trauma of rapture theology to whether algae-filled church toilets are connected to the hot water line. Josh Patterson kicked us off asking about progressive intolerance, which led Bo to brilliantly distinguish between liberalism and liberation. We got into how algorithms are making us all more ideologically rigid, why trans identity seems to be the sticky wicket for some progressives, and how cultural context is basically non-negotiable for reading scripture well. Bo told war stories from the 1994 rapture predictions, I shared the origin story of The Road to Edmond film, and we gave Julian some real talk about finding your lane in ministry. Plus: Lord of the Rings rapid-fire questions, the purpose of eight-foot paper mache Jesus heads, and Bo's benediction about cold toilet water. You know, normal theology podcast stuff.
