An interesting podcast, for those either within our without the PC(USA):
Decently and in Order.
Engaging and entertaining with deep and thoughtful analysis. It’s like the “Car Talk” of PC(USA) polity. Even those outside of the PC(USA) and outside of the church could have a lot to gain from the podcast — the issues and positions are reflective of wider conversations and personal struggles that we all are going through. And those from outside the church would have a lot to gain: it’s a good way to get a general sense of the struggles in the more liberal branches of the Christian church.
The very first episode gets into the PC(USA)’s position on the Israel/Palestine situation, and personal experiences (in an almost narrative theology style) from Israel/Palestine. It then careens into a review of a Christian theme park (“I just felt dirty…” and “…it’s just stupid…”). It ends with discussions of how some technical stuff has helped people: iMovie and GMail.
The second episode deals with the gay/lesbian issue in the PC(USA). It’s actually an extremely balanced conversation, more talking about the way the issue is addressed in the PC(USA) than the issue itself.
