episode 147: Does God Act? - Community Series Epilogue
Does God Act? In an epilogue to their Community series, Irenicast co-hosts ask and answer the question where they find God showing up in the world. Spoilers: they don’t all agree!
After a brief discussion on the language we use for God, Casey helps turn the discussion toward the experiential, highlighting the diversity of the team. Eventually this connects to a more theoretical and systematic consideration of divine action, causality, process and a discussion on the trajectory and diversity of progressive thought.
The episode finishes with a new, hilarious segment Praise, Protest, Pray to: a variation of the classic F*ck, Marry, Kill. Each host chose three public or historic personalities and the rest have to determine who they’d praise, protest, etc. Things are said, regrets are had, but in the end hilarity reigns.
