We’ll preserve the first 10-15 minutes for fellowship and will then sit in a circle for conversation. You have probably heard of TedTalks, but have you heard of TheoEd Talks? Ryan Bonfiglio started this program 8-ish years ago where theologians give a TedTalk, but it’s called a TheoEd Talk. 20-minutes, no notes, no questions, and available as podcast episodes.

We’ll preserve the first 10-15 minutes for fellowship and will then sit in a circle for conversation. You all may have heard or read Kate Bowler (Rev. Rebekah Close LeMon has quoted her “Everything Happens for a Reason and Other Lies I’ve Loved” in sermons in the past). She does a regular podcast and interviews all kinds of interesting folks. We’ll use four of her podcast episodes as conversation starters this winter. These can all be downloaded through the link below. They range from 27-42 minutes in length—perfect for listening on a walk or a commute. And if you can’t listen ahead of time, come anyway!

Race and Richard Powers will cover the Podcast conversation “Everybody Has Something” between Kate Bowler and Mary Laura Philpott. Click here to listen.
