This episode features Dr. Gary Simpson, emeritus Professor of Systematic Theology and Northwestern Lutheran Theological Seminary Chair of Theology. I have worked with Gary for many years at Luther Seminary and have grown to appreciate his insights into Luther, Cicero, and political theology.
You can find his books on Amazon and his articles in a variety of academic and theological journals. His CV can be found here.
Toward the end of the conversation, we discuss the following article, which I encourage people to read:
"Missional Congregations as Public Companions with God in Global Civil Society: Vocational Imagination and Spiritual Presence", Dialog: A Journal of Theology (2015), 54:135-150.
Thanks to Sara Renner (listen to her interview here!) for allowing us to use "Altogether Beautiful," the title track on her new album, which can be purchased at the following link:
