Chatting about Church with Brian McLaren and Tim Whitaker

Text us your questions!This episode was recorded live at Theology Beer Camp 2024. We sat down with Brian McLaren and Tim Whitaker (from The New Evangelicals podcast) to discuss Brian's history in the emerging church movement, the current progressive religious movement (of which we're a part), the Christian nationalist backlash, and our political moment. For those of us who think of ourselves as progressive Christians, it's tempting to feel like we're carving a brand new space out of the ashes of evangelicalism, but of course there's a long history to what's happening now. Brian helps us think about where we've been, where we are now, and what might come next. This conversation was very impromptu, off the cuff, and occasionally raw. There are warnings but also hope and (from Brian at least) wisdom. We hope it's meaningful to you.The books mentioned in this episode are:Prequel by Rachel MaddowA Fever in the Heartland by Timothy EganCheck out the (unedited) video of this conversation here.Content note: This episode contains profanity.=====Want to support us?The best way is to subscribe to our Patreon.
