Last week, I was teaching a Theology of Culture class at Luther Theological Seminary, where we were able to screen the new film ‘Freud’s Last Session.’ It was a powerful movie based on one of my favorite plays of all time, and it inspired some of the most moving and vulnerable conversations among the students. Here’s a little reflection and review of the film. No theology nerd will want to miss a chance to see and then discuss the film. INFO: https://tickets.freudslastsessionfilm.com | Homebrewe

I am pumped to share this keynote and conversation from Theology Beer Camp with you. What happens when John Dominic Crossan, Diana Butler Bass, and Pete Enns get in a conversation about the Biblical narrative and the crisis of civilization? Well, this video is the answer. Dom Crossan, a pioneer in the modern quest for the historical Jesus, got up at Theology Beer Camp 2025 and delivered what I can only describe as a lifetime of work stitched into one cosmic quilt of a lecture.

If you've ever read the Bible and felt tension between different passages, or found yourself in conversation with another Christian only to realize there are unresolvable differences at play, then Bill Brown's new book “⁠Sacred Tension⁠"is going to be right up your alley. Bill argues that this tension isn't a bug in the system—it's exactly what the Bible is supposed to do. In our conversation, we explore how the diversity of Scripture isn't a liability but rather an invitation to dialogue. From

Join us for this 4-week class. It will be a robust exploration of how the tools of science, philosophy, and theology help us discern meaning from divine encounters. We’ll discuss God-experiences as mediated through faith communities, the mind, nature, the Bible, psychedelics, and more. And we’ll do all this with an eye towards the future, exploring the range of possibilities for how a lived-theology could express itself in the world. http://experiencinggod.net | Homebrewed Christianity

This school year in New York radically changed him, but the spark that lit his theological imagination was outside the classroom. When he arrived in NYC, he brought an overtly intellectual faith he had used to justify a nationalist and militaristic faith. Th

Look, I wasn't planning to write 5,000 words on Steve Bannon, but then he goes on his podcast and announces that ICE—the same agency that just shot two American citizens in Minneapolis—is going to "surround the polls" in November, and I couldn't help myself. So I went back to Reinhold Niebuhr's 1944 book ⁠⁠'The Children of Light and the Children of Darkness⁠⁠,' where he divided the political world into naive idealists who think reason and dialogue will save us, and moral cynics who understand po

N.T. Wright returns to the podcast for round three—no Malibu rooftop this time, but plenty of theological fireworks. We dig into Tom's new book, The Vision of Ephesians: The Task of the Church and the Glory of God, starting with why he thinks the scholarly consensus dismissing Pauline authorship is more about 19th-century German liberal Protestant hangover than good historical work. From there, we get into the real meat: Ephesians isn't answering the question "how do I get to heaven?" It's paint

So Dom Crossan (JC) and Philip Clayton (PC) came together for this conversation I've been hoping would happen for a year and a half, and it was everything I wanted. We started with this question about why atheist political philosophers like Badiou and Žižek are turning to Paul because they need someone who has a militancy about being human that can resist civilization's death-dealing power. Dom and Phil had this beautiful back-and-forth about whether we should start with Cosmology or the Bible -

The conflict between science and religion? Turns out it's mostly a myth perpetuated by a handful of really loud voices on both sides. Dr. Elaine Howard Ecklund has spent 15 years using actual social science to study what scientists and religious people really think about each other, and the results are surprising: nearly half of elite scientists maintain religious commitments, most aren't hostile to faith communities, and there are way more varieties of atheism than you'd think (including "relig

Here, I explore what it reveals about the current crisis of American Christianity. Tillich argued that authentic human existence requires holding two roots in tension: the "powers of origin" (belonging, tradition, community) and the "prophetic demand" (justice, critique, openness to the stranger).
