Ep. 221 – Somewhere Between John Hume and Russell Brand, Things Went Awry w/ Jay Bakker

from Growing Up Christian · host Casey Greseth

This week we’re excited to welcome back pastor, author, and cofounder of Revolution Church, Jay Bakker! Jay joins us after a trip to Ireland where he toured historical sites connected to one of his heroes, John Hume, a legendary Irish politician and peacemaker who worked to build bridges between Catholic and Protestant factions during “The Troubles.” We discuss John’s life, the shifting landscape of politics and spirituality, and the odd phenomena of militant celebrity Christian converts. Jay is about as genuine a guy as you’ll find, and we absolutely love getting to chat with him! Follow him on Instagram and YouTube (@jaybakker), and learn more about Revolution Church at www.revolutionchurch.com. You should also check out Elton John’s “Tammy Faye,” a Broadway musical about the life of his amazing mother, Tammy Faye Bakker! Jay says it’s an incredible production, and we can’t wait to see it!
