McFarlandFromNothing.mp3 Sep 23, 2014

Show notes

Ian McFarland is on the podcast for the first time and he's talking about his new book From Nothing: A Theology of Creation. Dr. McFarland is a professor of theology at Emory University's Candler School of Theology in the ATL . During the interview I found out he earned his PhD at Yale with former guest Kathryn Tanner. It was an amazing conversation in which we discuss the nature of God, Creation, evil, divine action, providence and eschatology. Not only that but at the end of the podcast you get a personal invitation to join the fan club for Maximus the Confessor.

In the podcast we discuss our previous conversation with Catherine Keller and her text The Face of the Deep. We also make reference to the session from the American Academy of Religion title 'Creatio ex Nihilio?' that featured six different voices debating the doctrine and then the follow-up TNT episode.

Carrie Newcomer - A Permeable Life Sep 15, 2014

Show notes

Referred to as a "prairie mystic" by the Boston Globe and characterized by Rolling Stone as someone who "asks all the right questions," Carrie Newcomer is a singer-songwriter that brings her spirituality to the same table as her songwriting. Callid got a chance to talk to Carrie about her new book and album, both called A Permeable Life. The book is full of great pieces of prose and poetry that she wrote while developing the album.

The interview is addresses her writing practices, the ways in which questioning can be a form of faithfulness, and how sometimes the best we can do is to just keep going on. She also shares two songs and does a great reading about an amazing moment of clarity.

The Theology of Wolfhart Pannenberg w/ Philip Clayton Sep 10, 2014

Show notes

Let's talk about Wolfhart Pannenberg!

The planet lost one of the greatest theologian this past week & in this episode Philip Clayton and I discuss his amazing career. Philip Clayton is a professor of theology at Claremont School of Theology and former student of Pannenberg. He recently wrote a beautiful tribute to his former mentor you can read here. We thought it would be fun to remember Pannenberg by discussing his theology and we did. We went through a bunch of different topics he covered and yet after 70 minutes we barely discussed a third of my list of 'Pannenberg's big ideas.' I hope you enjoy this half as much as I did.

Check out this collection of Pannenberg remembrances and resources.

Brian Bantum on Redeeming Mulatto Aug 16, 2014

Show notes

Brian Bantum teaches theology at Seattle Pacific University out in the mighty Northwest. This spring when he and Callid were both at the Christian Leadership Forum of FTE they sat down to talk about Brian's book Redeeming Mulatto: A Theology of Race and Christian Hybridity. Because they are in a hotel lobby there a bit of background noise, but it is such a terrific interview that you'll want to listen all the way through anyway If you want to followup on this conversation another great resource is this video of Brian giving a talk called "The Church Cannot be About Multiculturalism" at Quest Church's annual day conference on Faith & Race. Bantum is on twitter as well. Special thanks to our sponsors at Phillips Theological Seminary and Chalice Press: their sponsorship helps us keep getting these out to you for free.
