What if the season of Advent is not meant to be anthropocentric? What if Advent is for the birds? … And the bears, and the beavers, and all of God’s creatures as well? What if animals have much to teach us in the way of waiting for the coming Christ-child this season?

In episode 52, Caleb is joined by author Gayle Boss in a discussion on her Advent book, All Creation Waits. They discuss the struggle of living into Advent amidst the “cultural Christmas” and the beauty found within God’s creation amidst the dark and cold seasons.

Is it possible for creation to influence God? Could it be that humans, along with all of creation, are made to be in an open and meaningful relationship with our Creator?

For episode 51 we are joined by theologian Tom Oord to discuss his work on open and relational theology in reference to God's good creation. Herein is a wonderful conversation on the intrinsic value of creation and thoughts on the "multiverse"!

Do you see yourself as a companion to the animal kingdom? What if we are connected to these creatures more than we suspect? From modern medicine to the stewardship of the land, our lives are intertwined with animals, whether you witness it or not. For episode 50, we are joined by Rev. Caroyln Dugan to glean from her expertise in the field of animals and medicine, to her experience studying zoology, to running a Christian camp!
