The Nick and Josh Podcast

ep 132 - Nick and Josh and Youth Camps

Sat, 7 Nov 2009 14:10:00 GMT

Where is episode 132 you may ask? Well, it was in the can. It is a brilliant conversation with the NT scholar Luke Timothy Johnson, however I am having some problems with the audio and instead of putting it up and then the next episode, I wanted to toy with it some more.

Notes for this episode, you will hear references to the LTJ podcast, it did happen, but it is not up.

This youth camp is fictional. . . but it doesn't have to be.

We apologize in advance for anyone offended.

Shane Claiborne joins us this week for the podcast. Shane is his usual hospitable, nicest guy in the world, self. He waxes poetic with us about justice, poverty, and economics with his east Tennessee southern drawl.

At one point, Nick accused Shane of spamming him for money after his home burned to the ground. Which almost made Shane cry. But Nick recovered and apologized and we all moved ahead better people because of it.

If you know anything about Shane, you know that he's a stand up guy and beyond gracious. Josh even tried to bait him into civil disobedience talk once and Shane stayed above the fray as usual.For more information about Shane, check out his community over at thesimpleway.com.

ep 108 - Barbara Brown Taylor

Sun, 10 May 2009 19:20:00 GMT

Josh Case interviews Barbara Brown Taylor and talks about her latest book, An Alter in the World.

From her website:

In her critically acclaimed memoir Leaving Church, Taylor wrote about leaving parish ministry to become a teacher, a decision that rearranged everything from her wardrobe to her faith. Now in her stunning follow-up, An Altar in the World, she reveals how she learned to encounter the God who does not live in church.

Describing spiritual practices as basic as walking, carrying water, being with other people, and saying blessings, she calls conventional distinctions between the sacred and the secular into question. Delving into darker practices of getting lost, falling ill, feeling pain, and grieving loss, she challenges the notion that God does Godâs best work in the light. Throughout this richly personal narrative, she suggests that no physical act is too earthbound to become a path to the divine. The world is full of altars, she says, for those willing to welcome the truth that comes to them in the flesh.
