DOUBTING without Losing Faith with A.J. Swoboda (ep. 3)

On this episode of the podcast, we are talking to A.J. Swoboda, a pastor, professor, and writer, about his new book After Doubt. Our theme question for the episode: what does it mean to question our faith without losing it?

• Discerning between honest and dishonest questioning
• How to honor the communities that nurtured us while also acknowledging their limitations 
• Counsel for those who are doubting, as well as for those who are trying to walk with doubters (parents & teachers)
• The importance of the local congregation when it comes to holding onto faith

As we’ve done with previous episodes, we are giving away five copies of A.J.'s book. You can enter the drawing by following In All Things on Social Media, sharing or re-tweeting this episode; leaving a review of the podcast will get you three bonus entries!

MAKING Beautiful Things with Makoto Fujimura (ep. 2)

On this episode of the podcast, we have a feature conversation with acclaimed artist Makoto Fujimura about his new book, Art + Faith, and what he calls the "theology of making." Topics we discuss:

• The connections between creating art and the beauty of the gospel
• Why children seem to know how important creativity is, and what has gone wrong for the rest of us
• Why a liberal arts education matters more, not less, in an increasingly technological world
• Ordinary creativity for those who are not artists
• How we can cleanse our cultural imagination and move forward in a polarized world. 

During the two weeks after this episode is released, we are giving away five copies of Mako's new book, Art + Faith. To enter that giveaway, follow this link: https://kingsumo.com/g/z5wjkr/in-all-things-podcast-art-faith-giveaway

WAITING while We Weep with Tish Harrison Warren (ep. 1)

On this inaugural episode of the podcast, we have a feature conversation with author Tish Harrison Warren about prayer and about waiting for God. We talk about "praying other people's prayers" and how being connected to the larger church offers us resources beyond ourselves. We also discuss quiet grief, and how being a believer changes the experience of waiting for God. 

We also have a short chat with Channon Visscher, the director of the Andreas Center about the vision of In All Things and the plan for this podcast.

During the first two weeks of the podcast, we are giving away five copies of Tish's new book, Prayer in the Night. To enter that giveaway, follow this link: https://kingsumo.com/g/dgkoxe/in-all-things-podcast-prayer-in-the-night-giveaway
