Podcast interviews are more fun when they're with friends. So great to talk with Dr. Beth Stovell and Jon Stovell about home and theology and Lebowski, among other things!

New episode reminder! Tune in to the podcast on your favorite podcast player to hear a fascinating discussion with Ryan McAnnally-Linz, co-author (along with Miroslav Volf) of The Home of God: A Brief Story of Everything, from Brazos Press.

6 y/o and I both published books yesterday: “The Home of God” (with Miroslav Volf) and “Badgers and Weasels.”
