The Spiritual Adventures of a Religious Rebel--Richard Rhem Up Close Parts 1 & 2
If you are not from West Michigan these episodes might not mean as much, but I think they tell a good story. Rev. Richard Rhem was ordained in the Reformed Protestant tradition, & was quite conservative.
Spring Lake is a lovely community quite close to Lake Michigan. This is where he served when he led the congregation at Christ Community Church.
Over the years his faith expanded in a direction completely unpredicted. As his theology became more & more progressive his denomination became more & more concerned. Finally, his congregation separated from the Reformed Church of America & became an independent liberal church.
I'm so glad we had the opportunity to have these conversations in 2016. After suffering health issues for quite a while Dick passed away in early 2020.
His story is just a click away. Enjoy. Theme music "Nigal."
