Chapters 15-16 | Gospel of Mark

On Today’s show, I’m joined by Amanda Waldron and Jill Richardson. Amanda is a Clinical Social Worker and works as a therapist in Grand Rapids, MI.  She’s just launched a new venture called Hey Amanda! where she will be mentoring thoughtful Christian in the midst of doubt and deconstruction, who want to toss toxic teachings, retain the authentic parts of their faith, and discover a deeper way to believe in Jesus. Instagram: heyamandawaldronTwitter: heyamandawalJill pastors Real Hope Community Church in suburban Chicago. Her doctorate is in Church Leadership in a Changing Context, with a focus on the next generation and preaching. Her tagline is “Reframed: Picturing Faith what the Next Generation,” and her passion is to work with the next generation to create a healthy church for the 21st century. She’s written or contributed to 6 books, and her latest work is on how interactive preaching can better disciple people. She likes to travel, garden, work with refugees, and break into random musical numbers. She nerds out on Tolkien, tea, and animals of all kinds except spiders.Twitter: @JillMarieRicharInsta: @bluehairedpreacherladyThe three of us get together to talk about the sins of church and state (and their redemption), the mob mentality and manipulation, and where does Mark really end and why?If you enjoyed our discussion, I’d love if you would rate + review on your favorite podcast player.
