Outlaw Preachers Precast: Nadia Bolz-Weber

This is the fifth of the Outlaw Preachers “precasts.”

As part of my journey across the country to start the Los Angeles branch of Metamorphosis I met with some very gracious outlaw preachers and am sharing our conversations as a sort of sneak preview of the podcast. Only the “precast” conversations will be posted to the Metamorphosis podcast, so keep on eye on outlawpreaching.com as the podcast launch date approaches. Outlaw Preachers will be a roundtable discussion style podcast featuring an eclectic mix of outlaw preachers in conversation about theology, philosophy, ministry, and all things outlaw.

My beautifully foolish conversation with Pastor Nadia Bolz-Weber (@sarcasticluther on Twitter) starts with a sermon she preached at House for All Sinners and Saints in Denver called “Being an Outlaw Preacher.” She relates that she tried to be a Unitarian and ended up marrying a unicorn. I am reminded just how long of a (cultural) commute it is to the Borg. And we take a second look at the Biblical story of Jesus and George Bush at the well.

We fail miserably if ever we read into a text that we are doing things right.
