This week we continue with Mark Chapter 7. To this point, Jesus has been traveling around the region of Galilee performing miracles, casting out demons, upsetting the status quo and teaching about the kingdom of God. Last week we read about Jesus being rejected in his hometown, sending out the 12 apostles, John the Baptist's death, the feeding of the 5,000 and Jesus walking on water. This week we read stories of Jesus pushing the boundaries when it comes to religious traditions and expanding the kingdom outside the bounds of the people of Israel.

Host Tiokasin Ghosthorse catches up with returning guest Dr. Tink Tinker. Dr. Tinker is the Clifford Baldridge Emeritus Professor of American Indian Cultures and Religious Traditions at Iliff School of Theology in Denver, Colorado. He is a citizen of the Osage Nation (wazhazhe) and has been an activist in urban American Indian communities for four decades. He joined the faculty at Iliff School of Theology in 1985 and brought an American Indian perspective to this predominantly euro-christian school. Dr. Tinker is committed to a scholarly endeavor that takes seriously both the liberation of Indian peoples from their historic oppression as colonized communities and the liberation of euro-christian (White) Americans, the historic colonizers and oppressors of Indian peoples, whose self-narrative typically avoids naming the violence committed against Indians in favor of a romance narrative that justifies their euro-christian occupancy of Indian lands. Rocky Mountain PBS has produced a fine documentary in which Dr. Tinker is featured. The documentary has won a regional Emmy award (a Heartland Emmy): A new chapter: Coming to terms with a gruesome legacy (rmpbs.org)Production Credits:Tiokasin Ghosthorse (Lakota), Host and Executive ProducerLiz Hill (Red Lake Ojibwe), ProducerOrlando DuPont, Studio Engineer, Radio KingstonTiokasin Ghosthorse, Audio EditorKevin Richardson, Podcast EditorMusic Selections:1.

This week, we explore the world of non-monogamous relationships, focusing on the trends of polygamy and polyamory. In our conversation, we dissect the cultural and religious contexts of these practices, noting how polygamy is often associated with religious traditions, typically involving one man with multiple wives. Despite some attempting to justify it with biblical references, we argue that such arrangements stray from God's intended design for marriage. On the other hand, polyamory has gained visibility through cultural shifts and celebrity endorsements, encompassing romantic, emotional, and sexual relationships among three or more people, regardless of gender. We also tackle the controversial topic of whether polyamory should be classified as a sexual orientation, presenting a perspective that challenges this notion.We navigate the complexities of blurred relationship boundaries, where polyamory often emerges unintentionally in relationships. We compare this with the more structured approach of polygamy, exploring how cultural changes have influenced these dynamics. The discussion highlights the evolving language of relationships, such as the increasing use of the term "partner" over traditional titles. We differentiate between polyamory and open relationships, emphasizing the role of consent and commitment structures. Through real-world experiences and the challenges faced by individuals, particularly in Christian communities, we provide insights into how families grapple with these evolving relationship norms and prepare for their complexities.TIMESTAMPS:(00:19) - Exploring Polygamy vs. Polyamory Trends(10:33) - Differences in Polygamy and Polyamory(18:19) - Navigating Blurred Relationship BoundariesJoin us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality! Other ways to listen:https://linktr.ee/calibrateconversations#Polygamy #Polyamory #BiblicalSexuality

The contributions to Visnu-Narayana: Changing Forms and the Becoming of a Deity in Indian Religious Traditions (Austrian Academy of Sciences Press, 2023) deal with the complex history of the Indian deity Visnu-Narayana. This conception of God evolved in various traditions in India, especially in South India, during the first millennium CE. The history of this development is reconstructed here by various means, including philological exegesis, the history of ideas, and iconographic evidence. In their respective discussions, the contributors examine a range of textual material in Sanskrit, Tamil, and Manipravala, including the early Cankam literature of the 3rd to 6th century CE; the Vaisnava text corpus, in particular the Nalayiradivviyapirabandham (6th-9th century CE); Puranic literature, especially the Visnupurana (5th-6th century CE); Pancaratra literature; and the later (10th-14th century CE) literature of the philosophical and theological tradition of theistic Visistadvaita Vedanta, in which Visnu-Narayana plays a central role. Also examined is how Visnu-Narayana came to be seen as a solitary supreme God, with a reconstruction of the theological arguments supporting this monotheism. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week I was very excited to be in conversation with Dr. John J. Thatamanil. In this conversation we discuss Dr. Thatamanil's book "Circling the Elephant: A Comparative Theology of Religious Diversity". Thatamanil builds a compelling case for Religious Pluralism that is deeply shaped by humility, hospitality, and mutual transformation. Christians do not have a monopoly on encounters with the Divine or Ultimate Reality and other Religious Traditions do in fact have access to both Truth and transformation. It is more than time that we stop just learning ABOUT other religious traditions, and start learning FROM them. Thatamanil demonstrates that religious diversity should be seen as a promise and not a problem and proposes a theology of religious diversity that opens the door to robust interreligious learning and transformation through encountering the other.
