12 Years A Slave: Movie Review and Theological Reflection Nov 09, 2013

Show notes

Bo sat down with J. Ryan Parker last month after they were given a sneak-peek at the movie 12 Years A Slave. After a review of the merits in the movie-making elements of the film, the talk turns theological.

If you haven't seen the movie, you may want to skip to the 13-14 minutes mark to avoid some big spoilers.

Around the 38th minute mark is when things turn theological.

You can find Parker's review over at Pop Theology [here]

You can find Bo's theological reflection [here]

Marcus Borg, Tony Jones, & the Resurrection w/ Jonnie #NerdOut Oct 22, 2013

Show notes

Jonnie joined my in the HBC Headquarters in Redondo Beach. In the podcast we start discussing the resurrection exchange between Marcus Borg & Tony Jones [aka ToJo] & then end up on the necessity of a physical resurrection, atonement, eschatology, evangelical's Easter concern, and Pannenberg.

Attempting to fill in for the BoDaddy is a difficult task but Jonnie did a pretty good job. I think I will let him back on the TNT w/ the BoDaddy so Bo can make sure we actually stay on topic. You will notice I actually start a couple lists of theological options and then get distracted by Pannenberg and John Cobb. The BoDaddy is a pro and knows to limit such theological temptations. During the podcast we drank the Burning Bush IPA and gave a shout out to 350.org for climate change info.

In the podcast we discuss these books:

1) Bodies and Souls, or Spirited Bodies? & Beyond Liberalism and Fundamentalism by Nancey Murphey

2) Jesus: God & Man by Wolfhart Pannenberg

3) Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time by Marcus Borg

4) Old Testament Theology by Gerhard von Rad

Kirk Have I Loved But Tripp? Sep 26, 2013

Show notes

Daniel Kirk is on the podcast. The most sensational Theo-Blogger, Homebrewing, Fuller Professor of New Testament, and fellow Wake Forest Demon Deacon [he also went to Duke and UNC Chapel Hill but I forgive him for that... Go Deacs!] is on the podcast with a bunch of topics he's looking to settle with me. We had an amazing local for this conversation... only Orange County's greatest brewery... the Bruery. Not only is the Bruery in my Top 10 list of Craft Breweries but Deacon Brian White is one of their master of the taps.

Kirk's previous visits to the podcast include this LIVE one from Mark Scandrette's house party in San Fran with Philip Clayton and a sweet discussion of Easter recorded during Holy Week. Go check out his blog & follow him on twitter.

TNT bonus track: Young People & the Church Sep 14, 2013

Show notes

In this bonus track Bo chats with Micky Jones about the now infamous Rachel Held Evans post on CNN Religion about young people leaving the church.

Then Bo and Tripp chat about what the topic means as youth pastors at Mainline churches.

These two conversation were originally recorded earlier this summer as part of a bigger conversation that never came together ... but instead of just getting rid of the audio, we wanted to use your responses to frame a future episode of the TNT.
