Ministry in a Secular Age featuring Dr. Andrew Root

New Time Religion is back from Summer Vacation! In today's world prayer can feel awkward, weird, and disjointed.  Turns out there's a reason - and it's called the "immanent frame". Dr. Andrew Root and Derek Tronsgard talk about what the immanent frame is, how it shapes our world, and why prayer is just the thing to bring back some meaning and mystery to our lives. www.twitter.com/newtimereligion www.facebook.com/newtimereligion www.newtimereligion.org

What does it mean to live the Good Life?  Is it wealth?  Fame? Recognition? Or something else entirely? Dr. Andy Root & Derek Tronsgard hash it out after some inspiration from the Amazon documentary "Generation Wealth". So what does it mean to live the Good Life?  And what does it mean for the Church? www.twitter.com/newtimereligion www.facebook.com/newtimereligion www.newtimereligion.org

Modern life is hard up.  Trying to keep up in the Secular Age leaves us numb, without meaning, and asleep at the wheel.  Thankfully, Bill Murray is here to wake us up.  But what does this mean for the Church? www.twitter.com/newtimereligion www.facebook.com/newtimereligion www.newtimereligion.org

There are a lot of other things competing with the Church.  Why are people choosing other "things" over church? Why is finding your thing in the Age of Authenticity so important?  And how can the church respond to it all?  Andy Root lays it all out in this week's episode. www.newtimereligion.org www.facebook.com/newtimereligion www.twitter.com/newtimereligion

In the Age of Authenticity we get to choose our own identity.  Mr. Rogers gets it.  The Fyre Festival gets it.  But does the Church get it?  And what do we do when keeping up your identity is so exhausting?

The church is changing.  Or is it declining?  Or maybe even dying? New Time Religion, a new podcast featuring Dr. Andrew Root with producer Derek Tronsgard tells the story of how the Church got here and where it's going. Join us each week as Andy drills down with the help of social theorists like Charles Taylor, history, theology, philosophy, and, of course, Netflix. www.newtimereligion.org www.twitter.com/newtimereligion
