Nomad Podcast

Episcopal priest, professor, theologian and author Barbara Brown Taylor, joins us on Nomad.   In the early 2000s Barbara left the ministry, an experience she described in Leaving Church, the first of a trilogy of books about redefining her faith. But it’s what Barbara got up to after church leadership that we want to talk about. Barbara spent 20 years teaching world religions, and forming relationships with local leaders from a variety of other faiths, a journey which she describe in her latest book Holy Envy. So we quiz Barbara on what she’s learnt about finding God in the faiths of others. As you’d expect from Barbara, it’s a conversation overflowing with wisdom, humility and challenge.   Interview starts at 18m 16s If you want more from Nomad, check out our website, and follow us on Facebook and twitter.
