Marty Folsom and The Psalms: A Sanctuary for the Soul
<p>In this episode, I talk with Dr Marty Folsom about his new book, The Psalms: A Sanctuary for the Soul, the first in a five‑volume series inviting readers into a relational, creative, and immersive encounter with the Psalms. Marty shares the 30‑year journey behind the project, his approach to relational theology, the garden metaphor that shapes the book, and how poetry, Scripture, art, and guided reflection come together to help readers experience the Psalms as a living space of dialogue with God.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://churchpublishing.org/products/9781640658912-the-psalms-a-sanctuary-for-the-soul">The Psalms: A Sanctuary for the Soul (Volume 1)</a></p><p>For other books from Marty, including the Face to Face trilogy and his Karl Barth series, check out his official website: <a target="_blank" href="https://drmartyfolsom.com/">https://drmartyfolsom.com/</a></p><p> [Mentioned in the interview is my piece on C.S.

Second thoughts on "Would God really say that?" with Tania Harris
<p>Rev Dr Tania Harris is a pastor, author, practical theologian and the director of God Conversations, an organisation that helps people hear and respond to God’s voice. In this conversation, we discuss Tania’s book, <a target="_blank" href="https://brill.com/display/title/68992?language=en">Hearing God’s Voice: Towards a Theology of Contemporary Pentecostal Revelatory Experience</a>. Our conversation begins with discussing how I came to learn about Tania and her work. From there, we explore some questions around how we can understand whether God is really speaking to us.</p><p>History shows that all kinds of evil have been committed by people claiming that God told them to. I was reminded of this through watching a true crime television show a couple of years ago. The show was called <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under_the_Banner_of_Heaven_(miniseries)">Under the Banner of Heaven</a>, starring Andrew Garfield and Sam Worthington. In it, almost every bad thing that happened was associated with a claimed divine revelation, including the murders that were the focus of the plot. Surely there are some things that a God of love would not command people to do. With her wisdom and experience, Tania helped me through some of the specific questions prompted by my reflections on that television show.</p><p>You can learn more about Tania at the God Conversations <a target="_blank" href="https://www.stevenfelixjager.com/">website,</a> where you can also find links to her books and publications.</p><p>For more on Tania’s story and the topic of whether God speaks through dreams, visions and prophecy, I recommend checking out her appearance on <a target="_blank" href="https://youtu.be/VijU8DRurd0?feature=shared">Unbelievable</a>.</p><p>If you’re interested in seeing what I have written on violence, war, justice, what it means to be a man, and several other topics, I recommend taking a look at my series inspired by watching popular movies:</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://onsecondthoughts.substack.com/t/film-series">https://onsecondthoughts.substack.com/t/film-series</a></p><p></p><p></p><p></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

Second Thoughts on Biblical Violence with Jared Neusch
<p>Dr Jared Neusch is a Bible scholar who earned his PhD in New Testament from King’s College London. With years of experience teaching in both university and local church settings, Jared is passionate about equipping others with a deeper understanding of Scripture. His recent contribution, “Nonviolent Hermeneutics”, featured in the <a target="_blank" href="http://Handbook of Postconservative Interpretation">Handbook on Postconservative Theological Interpretation</a>, was the topic of our conversation.</p><p>This was a deep conversation about biblical violence and how our interpretation of these texts impacts our lives today. After establishing some terms and laying out a couple of reading approaches from two prominent contemporary scholars, we attempted to see how these approaches translate into specific texts. I went first, offering my reading of Exodus 32, where Moses commands the slaughter of three thousand people. From there, I asked Jared to offer an interpretation on Acts 5 and the deaths of Ananias and Sapphira. </p><p>Links below for the key references discussed:</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://amzn.asia/d/9oRmS3N">Cross Vision (Greg Boyd)</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://amzn.asia/d/bLQas6J">Flood and Fury (Matt Lynch)</a></p><p>For some basic background on a couple of things mentioned in the interview, you may want to check out the Wikipedia articles for <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcionism">Marcionism</a> and the <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Priesthood">Phinehas Priesthood</a>.</p><p></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
