Mark Gregory Karris is one of those deconstructionists that like to help people put things back together again. We wanted to learn about his recent book, Religious Refugees: (De)constructing Toward Spiritual and Emotional Healing after our church, Emmaus Christian Fellowship, had read his earlier book, Divine Echoes: Reconciling Prayer with the Uncontrolling Love of God., and I thought his latest book would be good for our congregation to learn about.

Mark Gregory Karris is an ordained pastor, licensed marriage and family therapist, speaker, musician, adjunct professor, and all around biophilic. He is the author of Season of Heartbreak: Healing for the Heart, Brain, and Soul and most recently Divine Echoes: Reconciling Prayer with the Uncontrolling Love of God which we talk about today. Mark shares the moment when he cried out to Jesus, how a controlling pastor shaped him, and the theological breakthrough that changed his understanding of God. Along the way he shares some challenging ideas about how God might want to use us to answer prayer. Listen and share with a friend! Stories Mark shared: Growing up in a highly dysfunctional family full of violence, drugs, and mental illness The experience when he finally cried out to Jesus Getting involved in a highly controlling cult-like church Leaving that church and the anxiety that went with it The saving grace of going to college and finding male mentors for the first time Why we put on a facade for other people The hunger to heal and help other people through the journey as well that led him to become a therapist The theological breakthrough that changed his understanding of God (hint: it's huge) How he now sees God's intervention in the world as uncontrolling love Why petitionary prayer can be dangerous and may contribute to suffering in the world Why we should sometimes take action instead of pray What is conspiring prayer? Great quotes from Mark: God if you're real, show yourself to me. I need you. My trust grew stronger when I realized God was not in control of every event, action, or reaction that occurs in the world. Superstitious petitionary prayer contributes to suffering in the world. How many times have we prayed fervently for the distressed placing all the responsibility on God to answer our prayers while those for whom we prayed suffered needlessly because we took no responsibility to be God's answer to our prayers?

Mark Karris, ordained minister and therapist, is on to talk about his new book, Divine Echoes: Reconciling Prayer with the Uncontrolling Love of God. In this book about prayer, inspired by the open and relational work of Tom Oord, Mark looks at the role of trauma in his life and how that led to his work as a minister, therapist, and theologian; the specter of the failure of prayer; his experience of God as love amidst the trauma; the theological underpinnings for petitionary prayer. what is the role of prayer? do petitionary prayers make a difference? is God really in control? Many theologians are embarrassed by the theological implications of intercessory prayer and try to dismiss it, but Mark spends time reflecting on the nature of the God-World relationship, the nature of divine love, and really wrestles with what petitionary prayer could look like in an open and relational context. Tripp and Mark also talk about the struggle to find meaning, purpose, and value within suffering and how that can lead back to a classical theism, the necessity for communities to rethink ideas of God's power, and Mark offers a solution to the problems of petitionary prayer.

Zack read a guest piece by Mark Karris (4 Reasons Why Prayer is Ineffective, Harmful, and Makes a Good God Look Really Bad) on the All Set Free blog at Patheos. His interest piqued, he invited Mark on. Turns out Mark has a book out about why christians may want to stop petitionary prayer and engage in what he calls "conspiring prayer". The book is challenging, thought provoking and ultimately inspiring and Jeff & Zack talk to Mark about it (20:46 mark).

I sat down with Mark Gregory Karris to talk about his new book "Divine Echoes: Reconciling Prayer with the Uncontrolling Love of God". We discuss his reconstructed view of petitionary prayer based on his belief in an uncontrolling God of love. We talk about the issues with the status quo of petitionary prayer, the idea of conspiring prayer (as dialogue with God), and how all of this calls us into the work of justice and shalom.If you want the book, get it here: https://goo.gl/5221etIf you want the workbook get it here: https://goo.gl/nBauS7Check out www.conspiringprayer.com for more.Follow the pod @rinserepeatpod, follow me @liammiller87.
