Episode 2.3 The All That's Holy Blue Collar Podcast

We jump into this episode sans Justin.  Picking up on topics from safe driving while listening to the Superbowl to the great opportunities for the church in this cultural moment. Cody sings a little bit about a clown with big red shoes.

The Interview: The Outlaw Theologian of Love, Part One

We present one of our long-anticipated interviews.  Cody interviews Dr. Thomas J. Oord, a.k.a. The Outlaw Theologian of Love (a.k.a. to us at least, I don't think anyone else calls him that).

Tom Oord covers topics from creation, miracles, and even talks about the stuff God doesn’t know about.  And that’s been a bit of controversy for some (you can read about the controversy here). Tune in, listen up, put on your best Armenian thinking-cap and tell John Calvin to take a break for awhile.

We'll have more from Tom in the next episode. Make sure to find out what's next....

You can follow Thomas Jay Oord at his blog:  http://thomasjayoord.com/

On Twitter at:@ThomasJayOord and on Facebook.  While you looking into Dr. Oord's writings, don't skip his incredible collection of photos from his numerous hikes across Idaho. 

 

Dr. Oord has provided a gift for listeners coming to the podcast; an audio version of The Uncontrolling Love of God.  Follow the link for the audio book. The form is coded for sales, but we're giving this away, so when it asks for a credit card number, I don't think you will need to enter that.

Ronald McDonald and Friends - Do You Believe in Magic: Cody tried singing it during the recording of the podcast, but I didn't remember it. You hear it on Youtube at: https://youtu.be/9Bc_v7uk-uY This must have come out during my vegetarian phase and I blocked out ideas about hamburgers.

The Brilliance - See the Love: This band is totally brilliant.  Profound songs capable to blending sensitive compassion and a prophetic edge. Their latest collection, All is Not Lost blends sensitivity about the brokenness in our midst, and the opportunity for compassion and hope.  So needed these days!

Season 2.2: Episode 009: The Devil and Dr. Beck

All That's Holy Blue Collar Podcast: The Devil and Dr. Beck

The All That’s Holy Blue Collar Podcast: Episode 009 – Richard Beck and the Devil

In this episode, still close to the New Year’s beginning, we talk about New Year’s resolutions.  Remarkably, Justin is non-New-Years-resolver.  Along with our regular banter, which usually tilts toward politics or theology, we pick up on early impressions of the Trump administration and follow-up with a Two-Minute warning considering the positives of a Donald Trump presidency.  We make a few passing references to our need to upgrade our tech (including getting Justin a new mic) for the podcast.  Click the donate button to help us along the way!

We also talk about the devil. 

Craig has a conversation with psychologist and theologian, Richard Beck.  Richard Beck is an author, speaker, blogger and Professor of Psychology at Abilene Christian University. Beyond his books --Unclean, The Slavery of Death, and Reviving Old Scratch--Richard's published research covers topics as diverse as the psychology of profanity to judgments of Christian art to attachment to God. Every Monday Richard leads a bible study for fifty inmates at the maximum security French-Robertson unit. And Monday-Friday on his popular blog Experimental Theology Richard will spend enormous amounts of time writing about the theology of Johnny Cash, the demonology of Scooby-Doo or his latest bible class on monsters.
