The Wired Wanderings of a Postmodern Pilgrim
Posted in Wired Jesus Podcast on Feb 13th, 2006
Consider this part one on my reflections on the whole Muhammad cartoon controversy and my most recent read, The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason by Sam Harris. A very tough and challenging book, his case against religious faith (versus spirituality) is equally damning to Christianity as well as Islam. Its […]

Here’s the first podcast of the new year – sorry it took so long to get around to it but January was just a bear. However, here’s an exploration of why faith and doubt should go hand in hand rather than being seen as incompatible. I reflect on the questions posed by a listener who […]

Since Brian and Jen were having so much fun with the blog entry and our local paper asked me to weigh in on the issue of Christmas Day being cancelled, I decided to end the year with this podcast. Got some choice comedy bits in (one by Steve Martin has some low key adult subject […]

Here is the first follow up to the Soundtracks of Life Episode I did. It includes a clip from the Daily Source Code as well as some Disney Park music. What I play with is how the innocent music of Disney does much more than infect your brain, like “Its a Small World” getting stuck […]

Yes, I’m back and the explanation is on the podcast. Let’s just say life got busy and unpleasant for a bit but things are much improved. Hopefully my podcasting time will improve as well. While the Soundtrack to Life podcast is still coming, because of a personal experience and recent Evil Genius Chronicles, I’m wandering […]

Here is podcast #20 and I think I’m starting to get the hang of this. This original posting is pretty bare bones and without the show notes – have a friend flying in from Florida and just got back from a 4th Grade soccer players got injuried and ended up in the ER. Life catches […]

Here is the podcast that reflects primarily on the recent death of a teenager in my community and how Christians sometimes are completely unable to deal with tragedy. In light of the the emails I received, I decided to take a new turn in the podcast – a little more reflective than observational, more use […]

I know, you all missed being serenaded by Dr. Evil. Yes, the last 3 minutes of the burning man podcast didn’t make it up. I just reloaded the full mp3, so if it doesn’t get picked up on ipodder or itunes, just go back to the direct link and download it. You can also use […]

Thanks to everyone for the emails checking to see if I was okay. Wired Jesus is alive and well and so am I – down one week with a cold and a hacking cough, which makes for bad podcasting. Add to that being a Band Dad, soccer coach, and the congregation getting into the regular […]

Here are my reflections on Katrina and the age old question of if there is a God, why do things like this happen. My proposal at the end of the podcast is that if you know of ways beyond just giving money to help with the relief effort, send me the links. Rebuilding, equipment convoys […]
