Two Things

It has been an interesting day as I have had two small events occur that I would like to share.

First, I received a book in the mail in which I was invited to be an author. The book is titled, Renewing Faith: Reigniting Faith and Ministry through Process and Open & Relational Theologies (S. Kling, ed., SacraSage Press). Here is the Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/Renewing-Faith-Reigniting-Relational-Theologies/dp/1968136258. Here is what I posted on my various social media sites: “I was honored to be a chapter author in this new book that discusses ways to renew Christian faith without the baggage of today’s nonsense issues. Some of you may know that I am interested in teaching religious people that science done well is gift from God. Hopefully, this chapter and book will be helpful for many.”

    Second, I heard a very good podcast today discussing freedom of speech from a left and right political perspective. The two speakers agreed very much that when humans from one philosophical or political mindset are in control, they typically try to suppress dissenting views. I think this issue is both a problem for the left and the right. Humans should strive to do better. The podcast link is here.
