Faith Uncut

Honor Thy Father and Mother

Age comes for all of us. Many of us find ourselves in the position of caring for or living with aging parents. This week, we discuss the challenges of caring for others while we care for ourselves. Resources are available to help. If this is not your experience now, it may be one day. This one is important. 

Body Politic Preview

Amera discusses the Body Politic, a new podcast focused on the impact of our politics on Black women and through the lens of Black women. 

Killing the Savior Complex

Justice work is hard. It is an unending slog through a phalanx of systems that conspire to harm. One victory prompts adaptation which leads to more challenges. We are tired! If you’re engaged in the work, this one is for you. It’s time to be free.

American Theocracy

As America progresses toward what appears to be a theocracy, we discuss what that means, why it is a problem, and what can be done to counteract the inertia. 

 

 

Suffer the Little Children

We have a problem. Gun control is back in the political fore. This week, we revisit our thoughts from the Bible and Guns episode and discuss what has changed since that initial discussion.

Dystopia Rising (The Brown Liquor Report & Faith Uncut)

This week, Mike and Amera join the family over at The Brown Liquor Report podcast to discuss dystopia. Who defines dystopia? Are we in it? How do we navigate this moment in human history. This episode is full of helpful information, sobering truth, and dystopian laughs. We always have a good time when the family reunites. Come and sit with us as we figure out how to thrive in dystopia.

God is Good, Some of the Time

We give God credit when something good happens but when something bad happens, we don’t acknowledge God’s part in it. Is this inability to credit God  for all of it for our comfort or some other reason? Is the problem God or is it how we think about God?

Survival of the Fittest Churches

Churches are looking to return to normal but the world has changed so much since the pandemic began. Is a return to normal possible? This week, we explore what a return for churches could look like. What would a church need to do in this new world to be successful? This is a challenging look into how churches must evolve to address the current reality.

A Climate Change is Gonna Come

"All that you touch, you Change. All that you Change, Changes you. The only lasting truth is Change. God is Change." (Octavia Butler, Earthseed)

The world has changed. We changed it. This week, we discuss the theology that contributed to this current climate crisis, what we can expect, and what we can do about it. 

The Return

Guess who's back!! We're alive!

 

Wonder where we've been? This is that episode. We discuss what we've been into, what happened, and where we're going. Hopefully, we're all going together.  Join us!
