Real Life Radio: Episode 005 – Matthew Distefano, author of All Set Free [Podcast]

Well…

It’s been a LONG time since you’ve heard from me, here on the blog, on the podcast, or really, on social media for that matter too. Sorry.

Kind of unintentionally/intentionally, I have taken an extended hiatus from it all. I’ve had some significant life changes involving work and career (I changed firms – check out my new website there), and the needed focus there was enough to pull me into what has been a very welcome respite, that will soon birth some re-focusing and changes in my writing and conversational engagement.

Stay tuned…

Meanwhile, I had a nice opportunity to break the silence to do an interview with my friend, Matthew Distefano, who has recently released his first book, All Set Free: How God is revealed in Jesus, and why that is really Good News.

In this interview, Episode 005 of Real Life Radio, you’ll hear:

Who Matthew is, and his story – what lead him to challenge the paradigms of God, Jesus, theology, Heaven/Hell, Salvation, violence/non-violence, etc.
“Could a good God really exist?”
How we all have presuppositions, and how these lenses challenge how we see and experience truth
How Mimetic Theory offers a different lens to view who God is and what “justice” is
What do we really see in God in Christ on the Cross?
What are the positive implications of deconstruction of incorrect theologies, on the way toward finding a God of Peace – one that looks like Jesus?
What is Freedom?

Be sure and connect with Matthew on Facebook, at his blog, at The Raven Foundation, and check out All Set Free.
