A Sacred Rebellion with Ryan Remington

The conversation with Ryan Remington of A Sacred Rebellion was the best way to start 2025. His new book is available on Amazon, https://a.co/d/7iCDzNi. Ryan's honesty, raw approach to spirituality, and way of processing is refreshing. I hope you enjoy this podcast. The video version is on YouTube.

Merton & Methodist Awakening (2021 Version)

This podcast is a talk given in 2021 for a class for Methodist studies with Dr. Charles Brockwell. The themes involve placing Thomas Merton's three awakenings (Red doors in NYC, Fourth and Walnut in Louisville, and barefoot facing the Buddha in Asia) with the three forms of grace (prevenient, justifying, and sanctifying) in Methodism. I hope this finds you well. Let's talk about it.

Hardcore and Healing

This episode is a one off of sorts. It started as a project for a class on Care and Counseling with an artistic focus. It is my hope that it translates well for those wanting to seek ways that healing is not something quiet and safe in every experience. Let's chat about it.

Rage Ritual (or How RATM led me to seminary)

This episode explores the impact that Rage Against the Machine has had on my becoming focused on liberation, justice, and solidarity. I credit their work as one of the main reasons I ended up in Louisville, reading Thomas Merton and more.
