GMOR - Nick And Aiden

March 9, 2021 • 84 mins
These two young people are articulate and humorous as they honestly share with me what it means to be a trans person. Their stories of coming out to their family are different, yet they both are seeking to find common ground with those they love, yet at the same time standing up for their unique personal identity. We mused about religious belief and the relevance of prayer. I attempted to make the case that God is a ‘they’ and w...

Bobby M

December 20, 2020 • 58 mins
Bobby Mann is one of the many reasons I appreciate young people. He grew up in a small town in the Midwest as he puts it ‘in a fairly non diverse bubble.’ As he entered college, many things that he had thought formerly did not make sense to him anymore and he has gained a richer experience coming to understand and embrace diversity. He has an audacious goal for his gen z generation, that they would be the ones to eradicate racis...

May 5, 2020 • 103 mins
Do not miss this one, Brandon is a friend I met when I was a non trad 42 year old church lady headed to college and he was an 18 year old metal head in my philosophy class. Our journeys have collided at different points in our lives the last 14 years and here we are. He honestly tells me what he thought of my worldview and comments in class those eons ago as well as how philosophy sent him on a long strange trip of doubt, belie...

GMOR - Richie

April 17, 2020 • 97 mins
This is my guy...a precious young man I have had the privilege of running into a few times the last couple of years. His light and energy is contagious. He let me know he wanted to talk to me after hearing my last episode on Dogma Debate. I honestly had no idea where he was coming from and was surprised to say the least. Richie is honest, forthright, heartfelt and deeply sincere as he lays out what he believes and then tells hi...

GMOR - Mikey

January 30, 2020 • 87 mins
This one is especially hard. As many of you know my first podcast episode on Give Me One Reason was with my firstborn son Ryan who has been an atheist for sometime. Though difficult, I ventured into this territory again 25 episodes later to have an honest, heartfelt and somewhat painful talk with my second born Michael Price this past Christmas. In this episode, Michael admits that his relationship he felt to God was somewhat o...

GMOR - Heather (2)

January 28, 2020 • 35 mins
Heather shares her perspective on the stance of the church in general in LGBTQ people and how this has framed her worldview and caused her to second guess things she heard as a child. She was in an open and accepting household to her own sexuality and feels loved and is grateful for that. She honestly has never had a negative experience having to do with religion though she is familiar it and knows they happen. She reminds us Je...

Joseph

January 2, 2020 • 113 mins
Joseph has listened to ¾ of the Dogma Debate catalog and enjoys pondering issues of faith and doubt. He said he would love to go on and debate the famous David Smalley but he cannot let go of that last thread that prevents him from being an atheist. He got saved at 17 and even spoke in tongues but is not sure what it adds to his life at this point. Drawn to logic and reason that should trump superstition, he had a remarkable ex...

Adam Taylor on dealing with haters

July 10, 2019 • 28 mins
This podcast happened unintentionally. I decided to record the advice my husband was giving me regarding an issue I was having with some Facebook interaction. I have many people of different faiths and no faith on my Facebook page and quite recently there had been some harsh words and criticism of my views regarding faith and spirituality by two pastors in particular, Hundreds of posts and countless emails have now culminated i...

This frank and honest conversation with 20 very special and dedicated students was eye opening as they answered the question 'What keeps you awake at night?' The freedom to doubt, to find their own way, the state of our planet and our inability to work together. These kids help me believe the future is full of hope because they will be in charge :) Thoughtful and intelligent, you wont be sorry!
