Both Caputo’s first, second, and third visit rocked the podcast. Then we shared his main-stage fun from Soularize and the 3D event with Philip Clayton, Jay Bakker, and Peter Rollins. Even more exciting are these class lectures Caputo is sharing here at HBC. These lectures are free theological cat nip for theology nerds. Enjoy.

Here’s Elizabeth Johnson’s 1st and 2nd visit to the podcast. She is the Catholic theologian Jack mentions as the one who got in trouble for attempting to counter the patriarchy in Classical theology.

Nerd Out! Leaving Church, Packing Heat, and Metaphysical Violence

May 1, 2012 by Tripp Fuller 12 Comments

This is the LAST TNT episode in the Homebrewed Podcast Feed! Subscribe HERE to the Theology Nerd Throwdown podcast so you will continue to get the goodness like next week’s episode with John Caputo! The iTunes subscription is below.

Why are people leaving Church? Rachel Held Evans blogged it, Bo shared it, and now we discuss it. Andrew Sullivan’s post that got the conversation started ‘Christianity in Crisis.’ In this conversation Tripp discusses three good reasons people are leaving the church

Majoring in the Minors
Lack of Intellectual Integrity
Lack of Ethical Integrity

and then questions the impact of age programed ministry through college on the decline of the church. Why does Tripp have gay friends at Acts 29 churches?

Then we move on to discussing Jesus and his disciples packing heat. Bo previously blogged all the verses where Jesus mentions swords and then he ‘Walter Wink’s it’ by discussing turn the other cheek. Tripp then wonders about metaphysical violence and Process philosophy. We concluded by getting a little sermonic about the Biblical logic for universalism!

Existentialist Philosophy, Politics, & Theology with Paul Capetz

April 12, 2012 by Tripp Fuller 25 Comments

Søren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Jean-Paul Sartre, Karl Barth, & Paul Tillich all make an appearance in this podcast. So sit back and get ready for a nerd-filled fiesta!

Prof. Paul Capetz & Deacon Stephen Keating join Bo and I in the Homebrewed Christianity HQ in Redondo Beach on a rainy St. Patrick’s Day morning for a podcast. We had a blast! You will enjoy this podcast…if you are into philosophy, history, political ranting, Tillich’s theology or existentialism hitting the pews then this is the podcast for you.

Paul is an amazing historical theologian, Presbyterian minister, my favorite Calvinist, and dear friend. He was on the podcast for Calvin’s 500th birthday, joined John Cobb for our special 101st episode, and explained how a Calvinist gets pumped about Process Theology.

AMAZING BOOK for $6.72 on KINDLE!!!

THANK YOU…”Secret Deacon” who had JR Cigars deliver some yummy sticks to me. That was awesome. I love it when the Deacons call in and I love it when they donate on PayPal but this ‘secret deacon’ invented a new form of encouragement – mailing me GOOD cigars. To whomever sent them THANKS A MILLION!

Bootlegged Christianity with Philip Clayton, Jack Caputo, Bill Mallonee, Peter Rollins, & Jay Bakker

April 6, 2012 by Tripp Fuller 6 Comments

Here’s a little Easter egg for all the Homebrewed Christianity Deacons to pop open! It’s a little 3-d experience…a bootlegged version of the Homebrewed Christianity 3-D event at Soularize. Since we couldn’t get access to the sound board we couldn’t get a better recording but thanks be to Bo who has edited the event down an hour and EQ-ed the speakers so you can make out what they are saying. If you want more 3-D excitement just get ready for Jack Caputo’s ‘what is radical theology?’ 3-D experience & Philip Clayton’s ‘Predicament of Belief’ show. Both of those WE ran the sound system and they sound like gold! IN ORDER TO GET THEM you need to subscribe to the Theology Nerd Throwdown podcast feed (iTunes link in the Logo below) which will be separate from the Homebrewed Christianity Podcast feed in two weeks.

This podcast begins with Jack Caputo & Philip Clayton wrestling with religion and Christainity. Then Peter Rollins starts to insurrect things and Jay Bakker helps us get our preaching legs underneath us. The podcast ends with the music we used to begin the live event…Jesus and my favorite song writer….BILL MALLONEE.

Bart Ehrman on Jesus’ Existence, Apocalypticism & Holy Week

April 3, 2012 by Tripp Fuller 10 Comments

Bart Ehrman is back on the podcast talking about his newest book Did Jesus Exist? Don’t worry the answer is YES! In the conversation Ehrman responds to the popular nonsense of the ‘mythicists’ who attempt to argue Jesus didn’t exist. Like Dan Brown’s conspiracy theory, the mythicists may get some followers online but they don’t have much of an intellectual case and this top notch atheist leaning New Testament scholar is here to set them straight. Of course that was just part of the conversation. We also discuss the apocalypticism of Jesus, Holy Week, fundamentalism, plays the ‘name game’ with NT Scholars and then answer Jay Bakker’s question.

It was a real pleasure to talk with Ehrman and we hope you enjoy it and share the Brew!

Diana Butler Bass on Christianity After Religion!

March 26, 2012 by Tripp Fuller 8 Comments

Scholar of American religion and culture, Diana Butler Bass, is back on the podcast to talk about her newest and freshest Christianity After Religion: the End of Church and the Birth of a New Spiritual Awakening. This podcast is flat out awesome. I had way too much fun talking with Diana about the book and a stack of your questions. If you were wondering how to make sense of Christianity in the midst of today’s culture of flux then this is interview and book for you. We discuss the rise of the ‘nones,’ the ‘spiritual but not religious,’ Putnam & Campbell’s book American Grace, the nature of belief, and how to take a confirmation class postmodern. Enjoy it!

Diana has an online home, blogs at Patheos, the Huffington Post and is a regular tweeter.

A bunch of different bloggers in my RSS reader are digging DBB’s book…you will too!
