Podcast!
?
So, most Xtian podcasts are nothing more than repackaged daily radio shows of sermons cut to fit in 22 minute chunks.... and a new one each day. Ain't nobody got time for that!
I'm looking for something that's made for podcast format, well produced (i.e. doesn't ramble or sound crappy), and, well, interesting.
So far, I've really only found Preston Sprinkle's Theology in the Raw. Which is pretty good. I like that he's more nuanced and open, but I don't like that he's a pacifist and tends to laugh at an inappropriate and annoying way. One of his big issues is gender and sexuality (whoa - hold on, keep reading), I like that he wants to understand those stuck in the quagmire of LGBT and not condemn, but so them a better way.
One podcast he was talking about a well known Xtian writer who has openly embraced gay marriage, which brought him to a discussion of, "what is marriage?" Instead of looking at all of Paul's condemnations, which gay marriage advocates say is just against adultery and doesn't apply to monogamous couples, he focused on all the passages that define marriage and how clear the roles are and how it is to mimic Christ and the church. The direction he took was so fresh and new that I couldn't help but be taken in.
So... any podcast you like?
EDIT: Moved from the "General religion thread".
