Ep 2: Can I follow my faith without giving up my reason (and vice versa)?

(NEW EPISODE) This episode explores the dynamic tension between faith and reason. Religion asks us to believe things we can't prove with scientific evidence, but science doesn't rule out the mystical and experiential. How does a person have an honest faith that is also intellectually rigorous? Kelly Wilson is a writer, podcaster, and the co-creator/co-host (with Mark Dilcom) of the podcast Radical Love Live. Kelly is a committed Christ-follower and confirmed Episcopalian who lives in the space between the foundations of Evangelicalism and the inclusive expansiveness of mainline, Progressive Christianity. Despite the differences, he hopes that the world will come to know us Christians by our love. Kelly is also grateful to musician Steev Rx to be able to use the song "Purpose," as the theme song for this series. Steev RX is an alt pop/trap musician with roots in the Southwest emo scene in Arizona, and his music can be heard on Spotify and other platforms, as well as on his website at https://steevrx.com. [The first time I heard this song--the authentic questions, and the genuine faith that infuses it, raw language and all--I knew it had to be theme for this show!] To find out more about my work, you can find me at my website www.kellywilson.com, and I'm @kelywilsn on FB, Instagram, and X.
