Janet Williams - Seeking the God Beyond (N191)

Janet Williams joins us to discuss apophatic theology and spirituality. I know, it doesn’t sound like the most riveting topic. But trust me, it’s essential listening for anyone who’s been through some kind of deconstruction, faith evolution or dark night of the soul, anyone who’s interested in mysticism, or who’s gown tired and disillusioned with the Church’s obsession with trying to tightly define God. After the interview, Nomad hosts Tim Nash and Jemimah McAlpine reflect on Janet's experiences and insights and ponder whether they shed new light on their own evolving faith journeys.
