“We are all creators. Whether or not we create is not up to us. We are human, and creating is what we do.” - Michael Gungor You are a creator! Yes, you. Whether you not you believe it is irrelevant, because like Michael Gungor said, “We are human and creating is what we do.” In every role we play in life -- parent, spouse, friend, lover, community member, coach -- we create experiences and meaning. Today's episode is an exercise in creation. I followed the advice of a friend and fellow podcaster, and recorded this episode with no notes and no script. Every part of this episode was created organically, on the spot. I did that because I wanted to exercise my muscles of creation, and what resulted was a powerful reflection on creative, the creative process, and tapping into our creative potential.

Michael Gungor and his wife Lisa were pioneers in the Christian music scene, building a loyal fan base through Gungor's music and podcasts such as The Liturgists. However, Michael's recent turn towards an increasingly progressive, mystical and deconstructed interpretation of faith has left many Christians confused. In this episode Michael is joined by Christian songwriter and teacher, Evan Wickham as they break down many of the questions millennials and Gen Z'ers are facing today and what impact and interpretation, if any, this has on the church, modern theology and Christian music today.

Michael Gungor talks about how he's been church shopping and how the Internet has reacted to it as well as his thoughts and feelings around this unexpected burst of cultural conversation

Sally Kempton (January 15, 1943 – July 10, 2023) was an American swami, author, and spiritual teacher. This interview with Michael Gungor from the final year of Sally's time on this planet covers a range of topics from the divine feminine to kundalini to trans-rational perspective. You can check out more of Sally's work at sallykempton.com

Michael Gungor was brought up in a very traditional expression of the Christian faith.  If you've frequented contemporary churches, you've likely sang a song he wrote, "Beautiful Things."   Multiple-Grammy Award nominated artist and at the peak of exposure in the Christian music industry about a decade ago, his music career unraveled due to an unraveling of his Christian faith.  As Michael started to verbalize his doubts, churches and other christian venues cancelled show and many Christians  "washed their hands" of Michael Gungor. Michael recounts some moments of those tough days, including some backstory of his career, reflections on how Christians handled his faith loss, and how 2023's older and wiser version of Michael would walk out that season if it unfolded today instead.  He also  shares some weaknesses, things in life he'd like to get better at, and schools us all on what the power of love can look like amidst social media wars and in the cancel culture so prevalent in today's society. At the top of the episode, Pastor Josh Surratt hangs with Lynne and Joey reflect on some of Michael's story, ponder how Christians treat those who lose their faith, and  Lynne saved a puppy, which happened to belong to Joey's wife.Stay ConnectedWebsite | Facebook Discussion Page  In this episodeMichael Gungor / Site / Spotify / Instagram Josh Surratt, co-host  / Instagram Lynne Stroy, co-host / InstagramJoey Svendsen, co-host / InstagramExecutive Producer: Josh SurrattProducer/Editor: Joey SvendsenSound Engineer/Editor: JT PriceSound Engineer: Katelyn VandiverMusic, theme song: Joel T.

How to become a singer-songwriter, producer, music editor, author, and podcast host with Michael Gungor Gungor is the epitome of creativity and authenticity. Created by Michael Gungor, a nondual spiritual teacher, author, and podcaster with two podcasts underway. One that is award-winning called "The Liturgists," which, at its height, had millions of downloads, and the second podcast is called "Loving THIS."

Join me for a raw, authentic, and profoundly beautiful conversation with Grammy nominated, Dove Award winning, musical prodigy, an semi-unintentional poster child for the modern deconstruction movement, Michael Gungor. If you've followed his journey at all, you know that the pendulum of his life swung from being a minstral for evangelicalism all the way to spending a year of his life as an atheist. Where is he now? Still walking. And so are you. The journey of finding rest in reconciled untion with God in Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit is a rich walk home. Walk together.    Michael Gungor's Music: http://www.gungormusic.com   Order Unveiled Horizon: https://www.amazon.com/Unveiled-Horizon-Reflections-Nature-God/dp/B0BC63LLQV/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1662729092&sr=8-1   Website Link: https://billvanderbush.com   New Covenant Study: https://hebrewsstudy.com   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/billvanderbush/   Instagram: @billosopher59 and @biblestudywithbill   Twitter: @billvanderbush   Featured music  Michael Giffone: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/michael-giffone/1410403490

Calvin Moore, Kent Straith, and Steve Phelps continue their conversation discussing the March 2022 cover story of Christianity Today, "You're Not Deconstructing?"  Is deconstructing one's faith bad in and of itself?  How do we weigh church/spiritual abuse against deconstruction?  How do we address deconstruction due to faith not aligning with a person's lived experience?   What is the human's limitation when trying to conceive of their faith? What does it mean to "wrestle with God"? Website www.progressivechristianreview.com launching August 1, 2022.

(15:47) How do you break the constant collective mindset of depression and anxiety when you grew up in a family that believed it was simply an ever-present state of being? (21:26) How do you define “anxiety”? (23:25) Did Michael discover a deeper truth through his experience with different religions? (32:51) What is your perspective regarding truth? (33:50) What does it mean to “add value”? (36:23) ​If I've given everything I can to please those I must please in my profession, what more can I do to show my commitment to the cause? (39:06) What does “need” mean to you? (42:54) How do we determine when a struggle has become futile and move on? (45:07) What are your thoughts regarding the ego?

In this final episode of Season 7, Symposium member Briana Lynn and Michael Gungor have a fun, lighthearted conversation about the belief, play, and why we tried to do what we did in this last season of the podcast.

This episode's guest is Sera Jayne! Sera is a musician, worship pastor, works with an up north sauna company, and is an absolutely beautiful human. Sera blew us away in this episode and you can tell by the energy we have throughout, how much this conversation inspires us. Sera speaks on their coming out journey and how deconstructing Christianity has led them to finding a new safe space in the form of a church. Andi and Mar share a bit about their own journeys with deconstructing Christianity and redefining what spirituality means to them. We discuss the illusion of comfort in having control, why change is so scary, and where that actually stems from systemically in our society. “Everything that's living is changing.” We ask questions like, are we meant to understand all the variables? How would it feel for us to just be okay with not having all the answers? What is Christianity or spirituality supposed to feel like? Sera offers a super great tip that involves 6 questions they choose to ask themselves when they are in a place where they are feeling anxious or out of control. Sera gives meaning to the root causes of the need for control in our society, specifically for white people; “the centering desire for control, is rooted in internalized colonialism,” and we decided we need an entire episode to talk deeper on this subject. Cally and Sera dive into their passion for music and how it relates to their lives spiritually. We get the honor of hearing some updates on music they are both gracing the world with very soon. “We are just music making music.” Sera shares: Michael Gungor & The Liturgists podcast Find Sera @sera.jayne on Instagram --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/solwomen/support

Na de release radar en een nieuwsbericht vol ophef starten Martine, Bert en Matthijn gefascineerd met een gesprek over de muzikale reis van Michael Gungor. Ooit maakt hij aanbiddinsgmuziek voor de kerk, -fast forward- vervolgens verbrak hij alle banden en stond hij letterlijk op straat te zingen en nu -fast forward- is hij terug met… worshipmuziek! In een heel ander jasje met de sidenote ‘voor mensen buiten de kerk'.

So you're deconstructing. Or maybe you're not. Either way, there's a good chance that you know someone who is wrestling with theology. What can we do to best love and care for those who are in the midst of a faith crisis? Shane Blackshear, host of the acclaimed podcast, Seminary Dropout, joins Josh and Joel to help us understand how to best guide those around us through challenging seasons with God. Shane has spent almost a decade interviewing a wide range of scholars and thinkers across the theological spectrum, from N.T. Wright to Jon Foreman to Michael Gungor to Rob Bell, and he himself has shifted theologically along the way as well. Shane also helps lead a local church, Austin Mustard Seed, where he is in the thick of walking alongside individuals who are in a variety of places spiritually.

Does the concept of salvation have any use if we don't see it as a ticket to some other worldly existence after we die? Does the progressive notion of “freedom” that is so related to morality, justice, money, and power imply that we should all be more like Bezos or Trump? What is enlightenment and does anybody actually get to be enlightened? These are a few of the questions we tackle in this raw and powerful conversation between Michael Gungor, Emily Capshaw, and Mason Smith.

The Liturgists forms its first faux ecumenical theological council as Rev. Brianna Lynn, Mason Smith, Emily Capshaw, Latifah Alattas, Chris Davies and Michael Gungor have a fun, lively discussion about the Trinity and what, if any, value it has as a spiritual technology beyond the oppressive patriarchal usages that are so common historically.

Who or what is Satan? What is the nature of evil and what is the best way to interact with it in ourselves and in others? What is “existential kink”? These are just a few of the sorts of things we get into on this fun and wildly heretical episode featuring Caroline Elliot (author of the book “Existential Kink: Unmask Your Shadow and Embrace Your Power; a Method for Getting What You Want by Getting Off on What You Don't”), Mason Smith, Emily Capshaw, and Michael Gungor.

Former worship leader Michael Gungor denounces the deity of Christ, the latest in a list of Christian celebrities to abandon truth. Listen for more details with host Angela Donadio. For more Charisma News check out  www.charismanews.com

0:00 - Logical Fallacy: Appeal to Authority; Drink of the Day: A Manhattan made with Bunahabhain Scotch (aka. a Rob Roy) 2:28 - Meat Segment: On the Meat Segment today, I take a deep dive into an interview with Chris Harman on the "Theology on Air" podcast, of which I have been a guest and a producer. Chris describes himself as a Christian, universalist, exvangelical (meaning he says he used to be an "evangelical" but left evangelicalism, aka. "deconstructed" and then "reconstructed" his current form of "Christianity.") I go through various portions of his interview on TOA to give my thoughts.  52:12 - Twitface (NEW SEGMENT!): Michael Gungor tweeted something this week that runs the word "Christ" through a meat grinder, then goes through its pockets as it lies bleeding on the ground, robbing it of all semblance of meaning.  55:43 - 3 Favorite News Stories (More or Less): The first news story involves Kraft's limited edition mac-and-cheese flavored ice cream. The second news story this week deals with a man who woke up a year ago having lost 20 years worth of memories. Third, a double-whammy story deals with Simone Biles dropping out of the olympics but I speculate as to the actual reason for the withdrawal.  1:04:23 - Old Man Joe: This week on Old Man Joe, two clips back to back. One is the new "Laural or Yanny" clip. What did he say? The other is 20 straight seconds of Joe's mouth moving without a sentence in sight.  1:06:06 - Covid Minute: The new CDC mask mandates devoid of reason still have some people unwilling to go against it. Also, the USA today accidentally reported something true about Covid and so quickly deleted it.  1:13:59 - Hymn Hype: On Hymn Hype this week we take a look at the life of Katherine Hankey, a daughter of a prominent evangelical, who wrote two particularly famous hymns.

And what do we do about all of the fear and shame it causes, even if we don’t logically believe in it? In this episode, Emily Capshaw, Michael Gungor, Jamie Lee Finch, and Audrey Assad all share how the story of hell has shifted for them.

Is Heaven a place? A metaphor? A state of mind? In this episode of the Liturgists Podcast, Michael Gungor and Emily Capshaw explore these questions by interviewing Catherine Wolff, author of the upcoming book “Beyond: How Humankind Thinks About Heaven.” You can find out more about Catherine and her work by visiting www.catherinewolff.com

Everything that takes form, dies. Religion can at times help us cope with Death, but are there any downsides to creating beliefs about death? What did Jesus really mean when he spoke of conquering death? In this Episode, Michael Gungor, Emily Capshaw, Rev. Briana Lynn, and Death Doulas Caroline Lee and Alua Arthur explore these questions to understand how we can relieve some of the fear, shame and suffering that exists around Death.

Episode Notes In this Episode Ray and Caitlin talked with Michael Gungor - a Grammy nominated Christian musician and founder of The Liturgists podcast who left the Christian church a few years ago. Recently, U.S. church membership fell below the majority for the first time ever so we figured this would be a great time for us to talk about why this is. Caitlin is a pastor in the Presbyterian Church who grew up in a Christian household, and Ray didn't go to church as a child but became involved as an adult so we have a few perspectives covered.

Has anyone ever described you as an "information junkie" or as a loner? Do you believe "thoughts" are more reliable than "feelings?" Are you more comfortable observing rather than participating in life?  If so, you might be an Enneagram 5 (The Investigator)!  This week celebrated singer-songwriter, author, a member of the musical collective Gungor, and co-host of The Liturgists Podcast Michael Gungor takes Ian and Suzanne on a rare private tour through the labyrinth-like mind of an Enneagram 5 (The Investigator).  Listen as Michael explains: How Enneagram 5's can't survive without setting aside time to be alone and refill. How 5's are often quite cynical, though they may not always express it. How 5's are so invested in their thoughts that they feel hurt when people disagree with them. How 5's don't enjoy being the center of attention (no small challenge for a performer!) The joys of being the most observant number on the Enneagram. If you think and see the world differently than others and sometimes worry you don't have the inner resources to meet the demands of work and relationship (or know someone who does!), then this episode is for you! Even if you're not a 5 you'll enjoy listening to Michael describe how learning the Enneagram has helped him find his place in the world.
