We’re back! Here’s a sneak peak of what we’ve been preparing for Season 3.

We began with a simple question: “Why should we go back to church?” Some people were forced out by COVID; others elected to drop out long before COVID because of a faith crisis. And many in both camps are now wondering whether/why they should go back. We talked to church members, our Facebook Discussion group, pastors, an internet pastor, a mega-church leader, and a best-selling author. And what we thought would be one episode blossomed into a five-part miniseries!

We also thought we needed to do another COVID update. But before doing that, we thought we should look at why certain church-folk can be so resistant to solid, data-driven science. And that also got us exploring their contrarian views on the climate crisis. Once again, a single episode turned into three.

And then we’ve put together another mini-series under the title: “The origin and evolution of …” You’d be totally right that this will have us filling in the blank with predictable and scientific things like: … of the universe … of life … of species … of humans. But we’re also going to fill in that blank with unexpected, theological things like: … of the ancient Hebrew concept of YHWH … of the “Old Testament” … of the New Testament … of heaven/hell/afterlife.

And so many other ideas that we’ve got baking in the oven.

As always, tell us what you think.
