I was recently invited onto the That’ll Preach Podcast to discuss ways to reform our discourse. Take a listen!

Replay: Re-centering Our Hope with Dr. Michael Allen – That’ll Preach

Original Date: December 20, 2022 Much of the anxiety we experience in life stems from misplaced hope. Dr. Michael Allen helps re-establish the historic and biblical concept of "heavenly-mindedness" without neglecting love for neighbor. He also provides practical ways in which Christians can cultivate heavenly-mindedness in a culture that emphasizes the here and now.

The moral character of empathy has recently been a subject of contentious online debate among Christians. Joe Rigney and Hannah Anderson, who have both engaged in these disputes with their different concerns, join me for an extended discussion of the question, hoping to clear up some misunderstandings on both sides, and to break some differences down to size.

Within the conversation we mention various articles and other material.
