Synopsis: In season 2, Doug and Nick are engaging the Brethren in Christ core values. The Brethren in Christ (BIC) started as a small Anabaptist denomination in Pennsylvania almost 250 years ago, that has grown to become a global denomination across several continents and many countries. You can learn about them at www.bicus.org. Today they're looking at value #1 - "Experiencing God's Love & Grace." The guys are asking 5 questions of each core value and encourage you to follow along and determine if these could be your Core Values too. The 5 questions they're asking are:

Synopsis: The Space Between is trying something a little different for season two - release, with great regularity rather than complete spontaneity, our episodes each month (on the 15th) which means pre-recording episodes.

This episode was recorded exactly 4 months ago. Which means that we were catching up before the 2nd COVID lock down, after the 1st presidential debate, prior to the election .... and we're talking about all that stuff and more. Fascinating to listen to our predictions about these things and see how they aged.

We hope you enjoy catching up with us and once again we look forward to further dialogue here on our Facebook Page. Lets lean in as a community rather than away.

Welcome to the Space Between.

Please look for us on Facebook ("The Space Between Podcast") as a way to continue dialogue regarding episode topics.

Synopsis: The Underground Bunker was alive with conversation regarding where we are in our spiritual lives. On a previous episode Nick mentioned that he was not a Universalist and Doug mentioned that perhaps he was a Buddhist. And although this particular episode was on our upcoming roster we felt that this may one the appropriate time to jump in. We encourage you to consider where you might be in your own Spiritual Journey ... how would you describe your influences and your particular theological understandings?

Synopsis: For hours the underground bunker was full of conversation regarding deconstruction, stories, analogies and more. And that was before the "record" button was ever hit. On this episode the guys discuss what deconstruction is, why it might be important, share some stories, some word pictures and their thoughts on the importance of making sure that construction is a part of the process. They give some tips on what might be helpful if you are in the process of deconstruction now and invite ongoing dialogue on the Facebook page.

Synopsis: This morning the guys come to you from deep in the underground studio where they're far from the public in order to talk about COVID-19. Specifically, what role does the church need to play in this pandemic. The conversation includes perspectives from a pastor (Nick) and from a health care worker (Doug) about our social responsibility, social needs and how we can get creative. There are no real answers here ... just honest and open dialogue about where we are today in this historical moment.

Update (3/21/20) - Doug would like to make it clear that while he referenced a 3-4 month window for a vaccine he really meant that would be the window for trials to begin and for a person to enter a trial for treatment.

The guys talk about each element and then add one of their own - making this the Wesleyan Quadra-quint. Join the guys as they discuss Scripture, Reason, Experience and Tradition ... oh yea, and their addition: community.

SYNERGY by tubebackr | https://soundcloud.com/tubebackr

Synopsis: On this episode of The Space Between the guys go head to head with some specific Evangelical beliefs: inerrancy of scripture, original sin theology, penal substitutionary atonement theory and the Evangelical community's political ties. With the help of an alarm that keeps them to 14 minutes per topic - the conversation is fast and a lot of ground is covered. Due to the simple fact that it is possible to feel the rug pulled out from under you regarding these topics, Nick and Doug commit to begin a Facebook group where further conversation can be had.
