Pentecost for Progressives - Roger Mitchell (NS31)
Playback speed
In our sixth instalment of our Pentecost for Progressives series, we bring you Roger Mitchell. Roger teaches political theology at Lancaster University and has pioneered a movement around the idea of Kenarchy, by which he means ‘self emptying power’. You can read more about this in his book Discovering Kenarchy: Contemporary Resources for the Politics of Love. But until you do, you can enjoy this refection! If you want more from Nomad, check out our website, and follow us on Facebook and twitter If you're looking for other people to share this journey with, then register on our Listener Map, and see if any other nomads are in your area. Nomad can only keep going because a small group of faithful listeners help us pay the bills. If you want to join them, you can make regular donations at Patreon or a one-off or regular donation through PayPal, the links to which you can find on our support page. As a thank you, you'll have access to Nomad Book Club, our online community The Beloved Listener Lounge, and Nomad Devotionals, where we're attempting to reconstruct worship through a creative mix of songs, music, readings, prayers and guest reflections.
