– Tripp Fuller—philosopher of religion and host of Homebrewed Christianity—with Tony Jones, author of The God of Wild Places.
Join the Homebrewed Christianity & Emerged podcast for a unique evening (and live recording) of candid theological discussions over a pint. During the show, we will tackle “God problems.” First, we will explore the impact of societial changes on religious practice and the irruption of spiritual curiosity and practice beyond traditional boundaries. Then we will be joined by Hebrew Bible scholar Rolf Jacobson as we examine the vision(s) of God within the Bible and the multiple ways the texts continue to be interpreted today. This event is for anyone interested in theology and wanting to engage in open conversations in a relaxed setting. Don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and explore theological topics in a casual and welcoming environment.
