What do jazz, craft beer, life on the autism spectrum, and an old auto shop in Texas have to do with making space? Turns out everything!  I am excited to share my conversation with my friend Christian Piatt. Christian is an author, podcast editor, and the owner, designer and founder of Brew Drinkery in Granbury TX.  The Brew Drinkery is a craft beer/community venue that weaves together old and new design elements, all while making space for the avid craft brew enthusiast, and those who have never heard of a hop. Christian challenges us to design and curate spaces that both reflect our own passions, but like good jazz, leave room for improv and the needs of those who will engage with the space. This pastor will be thinking about this conversation for a long time.  Check out the Brew Drinkery https://www.brewdrinkery.com/  For more images of the remodel check out my instagram account and see before and after photos- @revSarahHeath Introduction Music “it can be done” by Airae via epidemic sound.

At Canaan we are trying to live into our tagline “the church where love makes the difference,” which we have found to be a very dangerous statement. Christians often tell people we love them before we have ever lived with, listened to, or learned from them. If we are going to be genuine, presence becomes a precursor to love and a foundational principle for ministering to the needs of our neighbors. Read the full article at https://www.pastorresources.com/proximity-presence-love-genuine/ Written by Jonathan Brooks (“Pastah J”) is senior pastor of Canaan Community Church in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood. A sought after speaker, writer, and artist, he has contributed to two books: Banned Questions for Christians by Christian Piatt and Making Neighborhoods Whole by John Perkins and Wayne Gordon.

In our last episode of Selfie, Sarah and I shared a ton of unique gift ideas for the women, men and kids in your life. Here are some of our favorites: For Women: If you love the smell of walking into an Anthropologie, you need Capri Blue candles. It smells like a tropical vacation. Kristen is partial to the mercury glass collection because of the glow the glass gives off. She’s also a fan of Jonathan Adler’s red currant candle. Wanna gift a cookbook? We recommend How To Cook Anything by Mark Bittman and the True Foods cookbook. Can a vacuum really change your life? And make your kids more willing to clean? Kristen contends that the Dyson cordless vacuum can. Sarah uses this Vitruvi Essential Oil Diffuser which, in addition to making her home smell amazing, looks like a modern vase. Sarah is obsessed with the MUN essentials skincare set, a luxury splurge for a woman you like a lot. (Use the code WHOORL for 15% off your purchase!) Reusable shopping bags are always a useful gift and Baggu’s are adorable and in a variety of fun modern prints and colors. We’ve long loved 31 Bits jewelry but their new home collection is TO DIE FOR and all purchases benefit women in Uganda and Bali. What do you get the person who has everything? A personalized self-inking address stamp is a thoughtful and useful gift for anyone. Sarah loves the Many Moons Workbook which has tons of information and research on the major Moon phases, recipes, spell working suggestions and advice, manifestation musings, Tarot Talk, and self-help and development prompts. If that level of woo-woo isn’t your thing and you come from a more Christian tradition, check out Christian Piatt’s Surviving the Bible devotional for 2018, a progressive and modern approach to looking at ancient scriptures. With all the great pictures you’re sure to take over the holidays, we’ve partnered with CanvasPeople.com to bring you a special deal on their photo canvases. Normally 11×14 canvases are priced at $69.99, but for a limited time, they are offering a FREE 11×14 canvas. (You just pay shipping.) To get this amazing deal, go to CanvasPeople.com and enter the code SELFIE at checkout. For Men:For awesomely hip beanies, messenger bags, and more, check out the goods at Krochet Kids, which are created by at-risk women in their educational sewing programs in Uganda and Peru. For the techies, we love the Amazon Alexa as a way to play music, add groceries to your list, check the weather, and answer your burning questions. It’s like your own personal assistant. And speaking of Alexa, the voice-activated amazon system can now control Sonos Speakers! Sonos lets you wirelessly Stream all your favorite music services like Amazon Music, Pandora, Apple Music, and Spotify directly, so it leaves your phone alone. You can pair speakers throughout your house. An affordable gift that keeps on giving is a Roku Streaming Stick. At only $27 it can turn any tv into a smart tv, giving you access to Spotify, Hulu, Netflix, VUDU and all kinds of online entertainment channels. Some great coffee-table books include the new visual compendium of David Sedaris’s diaries, the hilarious collection of satire from The Best of McSweeney’s Internet Tendency, and The Monocle Guide to Better Living. These old-school Oak Letter Boards are a great personalized addition to any home and can allow you to highlight an inspirational quote or daily menu. Sarah is a huge fan of Woodlot for their palo santo incense, original essential oil blend for diffusing (fir cedar pine orange vanilla), and lovely smelling candles. For Kids: Reading Bug Box is an amazing book subscription that delivers 2-3 books to your home each month customized to your child’s reading level and interests.

Author, editor, speaker, musician and spoken word artist Christian Piatt and I sit down to diagnose how big of an asshole I am. "Let he who admits he's an asshole cast the first stone." - JESUS Ok, Jesus didn't say that. But he did understand that change began at the acknowledgment of the problem. If Christian's are assholes, the only hope of that changing is the admittance of our own ass-holiness. One of the reasons that I, Zac, have renounced my Christianity is because it made me into a person that I didn't like. The more authority I was given in the church, the more of a douche I found myself becoming. The more biblical knowledge I had, the more I had to correct others that didn't have it. The deeper I understood theology, the more arrogant I became, and the more distanced I felt from my humanity and experiencing the gritty, real, and beautiful humanity of others. Christianity lead me to see myself as set apart, special, and different from others. It put me at odds with those that were different from me, and in my own mind made them the enemy, and me the hero. These disgusting, divisive, and arrogant beliefs became a heavy burden to bare. The more caged I felt from experiencing my humanity; I just wanted to be myself and drop this disgusting, divisive burden. We spend time in this episode discussing these things and more.   FROM CHRISTIAN PIATT My name is Christian, and I'm an asshole. There was a time when I was pretty sure all Christians were assholes, and based on the God they kept telling me about, I was pretty sure God might be kind of an asshole too. It seemed to me that Christianity was about getting saved so you wouldn't be a jerk anymore. But the problem was, a lot of the most obnoxious, intolerant, hateful people I knew called themselves Christians. Then I heard a sermon by my friend which started with, "I'm a Christian because I'm an asshole." She didn't try to shrug it off; she embraced it. Not proudly, but fully and honestly. She needed what she found in Jesus every day, all over again because she was an asshole. Why aren't more Christians like this? Churches tend to feed peoples' sense of arrogance, superiority and entitlement by telling them they're right and everyone else is wrong. As if their faith was some kind of one-and-done spiritual plastic surgery. We're all screwed up at some basic level; the real problem comes when we think we're above the brokenness. And why bother, when we live in a world that venerates assholes to near sainthood status (see: Donald Trump, Jersey Shore, Charlie Sheen, The Bachelorette...need I go on?)? I've heard tons of stories of redemption, but most of them end up bothering me more than encouraging me. Generally, it's because all of the bad stuff they talk about in their lives is always referred to in the past tense, and once they're "saved" (still not sure what that means), everything is sunshine and rainbows. But if this was the case, and if becoming a Christian really cured us once and for all of being assholes, why do so many people in the world see us as judgmental, opportunistic, narrow-minded hypocrites?   JOIN US Join the CounterCulture Society:  http://eepurl.com/bwqMWT Become a Producer:  https://www.patreon.com/losingourreligion Find Out More:  http://www.losingourreligion.org Twitter:  https://twitter.com/LosingRReligion Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/LosingOurReligion Call 'Losers Anonymous' Hotline: 206-395-5608 This Episode's Landing Page: http://www.losingourreligion.org/episodes/2016/7/18/052-leaving-a-holiness-behind-christian-piatt-author-christianity-asshole

Which would have lead me to ignore the much-needed voice he has. We spend some time in this episode discussing how the human brain works and how it infects religion in dangerous ways. With all the many wonderful things we chat about, I feel like we kept knocking on the door of Security Addiction. How our addiction to certainty being a crux to dependence on things like religion. I also finally learn the difference between a Heretic and an Apostate! Haha! Which it sounds like I am more of a heretic these days than I thought. We need heretics! But as we say..."FUCK LABELS!"

Christian Piatt, author of Banned Questions about Jesus & Banned Questions about the Bible stops by for a chat about church, Jesus, faith, the Bible and the important stuff in life.  As a minister's husband Christian has been part of planting a progressive Disciples of Christ church in Colorado.  He Tweets, he blogs, and facebooks. Most important of all Christian put together a killer collection of thinkers, writers, and ministers to answer a some dangerous and banned questions about Jesus...the kind of questions in which the asking and the answering can be costly.  Each author had just a few paragraphs to answer the question and they did so right next to others so the reader can compare, contrast, yell, and go 'hmm.'  Not only was Christian wise enough to ask Tripp about Jesus' sexual fantasias but he also brought some 'A' game to the podcast.  Hope you enjoy the conversation!
