This special episode was chosen by our Discord followers! We had a vote on our Discord channel for this very topic and now, Joshua Noel leads a thought-provoking discussion on the implications of artificial intelligence in video games from a Christian perspective, exploring how our interactions with AI reflect our values and beliefs. Joined by philosophy scholars Dr. Benjamin J. Chicka and Dr. Taylor Thomas (host of the podcast, "Tillich Today"), the conversation delves into the nature of AI, its representation in gaming, and how these representations challenge our understanding of humanity and morality. They examine the ethical dimensions of AI development, particularly regarding its impact on human lives and the potential for AI to influence our behavior and societal norms. The scholars share insights on Paul Tillich's theology and how it relates to contemporary issues surrounding technology and culture. Ultimately, the episode raises critical questions about our responsibilities to both AI and each other as we navigate an increasingly automated world.Central to the dialogue is the exploration of Paul Tillich's theology and how his concepts of symbols and participation can be applied to the digital realm of video games. The guests illuminate how symbols in gaming—like the representation of robots and AI—can challenge or reinforce our cultural values and perspectives on life. They discuss specific games like 'Gone Home' and 'Papers, Please', which not only entertain but also provoke deep ethical considerations about identity, agency, and social justice. The episode serves as a call to recognize the moral weight behind our interactions in virtual environments and the potential for games to shape our understanding of humanity in the age of AI..What did Paul Tillich believe about God? What is existentialism according to Paul Tillich? What did Tillich say about symbols? What is the symbolic function of religious language Paul Tillich's view? How will AI be used in video games? Will AI speed up video game development? How does AI relate to philosophy? What is the theological objection to AI? What do psychologists say about video games? How would Paul Tillich see the function of videogames? How should we treat AI? We discuss all this and more in this one!

In this episode, I am joined by Dr. John Thatamanil to discuss how Paul Tillich's theology understands God's relationship to history and incarnation. We discuss his Christian existentialism, the contrast between Chronos and Karios time, and his vision of the divine. Covering topics from Tillich's understanding of religious socialism to the complexities of conditioned and unconditioned existence, our dialogue offers a rich introductory exploration of Tillich's thought. We also engage the contemporary implications of Tillich's theology, making connections to modern societal issues and the lived reality of faith in challenging times.

This week Josh Patterson from the Rethinking Faith Podcast joins me to talk Tillich, Process Philosophy, and the Death of God!

This week my friend Dr. Taylor Thomas joins me to discuss your new favorite theologian... Paul Tillich. This episode is a crash course in all things Tillich! Whether you are a Tillich expert or have no idea who the hell Paul Tillich is, this episode is for you. Dr. Thomas takes us through the life and theology of Tillich in a way that is fun and accessible... she also throws some of her own hot takes in there so Tillich nerds look out! We discuss Tillich's notion of faith as ultimate concern, the role of doubt in faith, existentialism, God as the ground of being, the importance of symbol, a theology of culture, and so much more. This was such a fun conversation to have with Dr. Thomas. I hope you find it as helpful as I did!

Big doings for Jay recently! He fills us in on his trip to NYC to meet with the folks who are producing and performing the Broadway musical about his mom, including Sir Elton John! Crazy! Today talk though is a bit of an audible. It's a really great talk! It wasn't, however, the original talk he had planned—that talk got derailed when his plane ride home from NYC lost power and had to make an emergency landing! Scary stuff, but everyone is okay and safe and sound! But with that talk being too much to tackle on no sleep and a nightmare of a plane ride, Jay switched his focus to Paul Tillich and really knocks the talk out of the park. Tillich is an absolute favorite here at Revolution. Jay discusses two of Tillich's sermons and wow, do they get you thinking! Do non-Christians do a better job of showing love than Christians do? If we're void of love, are we void of God? Is genuine love the presence of God? What is calculated justice? Are we living a life of passionate grace, and passionate love? Or are we just calculating justice? Does the Golden Rule have limits? Does love have a limit? And maybe the heaviest hitting question of the bunch…Where does God abide?This talk was given on October 6, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.www.facebook.com/revolutionchurchmnwww.revolutionchurch.com/donatewww.youtube.com/revolutionbroadcasting@jaybakker@revolution1994@revolution94 Hosted on Acast.

Why do we do things we don't want to do? Why can't we always do what we want to? These are topics that Paul brings up in his letter to the Romans. It is also a concept that Revolution favorite Paul Tillich dives into when he discusses the concept of sin. At Revolution we believe in grace and acceptance over all things, that's why we put a lot of trust in our two Pauls! The Apostle, and Tillich. Together they make a great team in their exploration of grace, questioning the laws of religion, and what it means to truly feel accepted. At times probably almost everyone has felt that God hates them, or maybe God has left them. Where does this feeling come from? Is it possible that this feeling is also one of the closest ways to be connected to Jesus? Do the rules and laws of religion amplify these feelings? These feelings of a being sinful and useless and unloved, not accepted by God or the church or ourselves? Where does this roadblock come in? How can we get the breakthrough that's needed to understand grace? What does it mean to have a life above ourselves? This talk doesn't have all the answers, but it is a great, great, place to start as we try to figure out more about God and ourselves and others.This talk was given on Sept 22, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.www.facebook.com/revolutionchurchmnwww.revolutionchurch.com/donatewww.youtube.com/revolutionbroadcasting@jaybakker@revolution1994@revolution94 Hosted on Acast.

Es könnte eigentlich so schön sein. 5 Jahre Rasenballspott. Was für ein Meilenstein. Eine riesige Party mit Marco und Stevo. Falsch gedacht. Zur Geburtstagsparty erscheint der Borusse einfach nicht. Unverschämt, mag der ein oder andere Spötter denken. Doch Stephan wäre nicht Stephan hätte er nicht für würdigen Ersatz gesorgt. Vergesst Raab gegen Halmich. Hier kommt Marco gegen Tillich.

Is the apologetic enterprise coercing people outside the Christian faith into a decision on which their eternal fate depends, conceding the terms of the debate to the culture's notion of what's important, or making fruitful contact in ways specific to the person and situation? (I bet you can guess our answer.) In this episode, Dad and I examine some worse ways of making a defense for the faith that is within us en route to some recommendations of a more excellent way. Plus, Sarah complains even more about Tillich. Notes: 1.

I am thrilled about this episode in the ongoing Process This series on Artificial Intelligence. In this episode, my series co-host and author of God-Like: A 500-Year History of Artificial Intelligence in Myths, Machines, Monsters, Kester Brewin, is joined by philosopher John Caputo. The conversation occurred at the intersection of artificial intelligence, technology, and theology. They explore the mystical and philosophical implications of AI, reflecting on humanity's relationship with technology and the future of AI in reshaping our understanding of existence. They also touch on key figures such as Heidegger and Derrida, addressing both the potential and peril of technological advancements. Whether you're a theology nerd or a curious mind, this interdisciplinary dialogue promises an enlightening exploration into AI and the human future. John David Caputo (born October 26, 1940) is an American philosopher who is the Thomas J. Watson Professor of Religion Emeritus at Syracuse University and the David R. Cook Professor of Philosophy Emeritus at Villanova University. Caputo is a major figure associated with postmodern Christianity and continental philosophy of religion, as well as the founder of the theological movement known as weak theology. Much of Caputo's work focuses on hermeneutics, phenomenology, deconstruction and theology. Watch the conversation on YouTube here. Previous Episodes with Jack What to Believe?

Life is strange, and not in a good way. Things make less and less sense as we try and navigate these current times. We all feel it, we all dread what's coming around the corner…but we're all in it together. Since the beginning of the year we've been diving into the teachings of a few people from history. Unifiers and philosophers. We discussed what Tillich said about grace and inclusion. We discussed what Martin Luther King said about non-violence, grace, and inclusion. We discussed what John Hume said about grace and inclusion. Now let's dive in and see what Jesus has to say. What he says and what he does. How his actions speak just as loud as his words. For this, Jay looks at Matthew chapter 9—Jesus picking his disciples. Who did Jesus pick? From what walks of life? Were they good and righteous people? Beloved by all? Where did they stand in society, and how did people view them? Did any of this matter to Jesus? Did Jesus follow the pressure to hate who everyone else hated? It's important to look at passages like this because we are called to follow Christ. Follow his life and his example. We can only do that if we read and learn how he lived. By society's standards, Matthew shouldn't have ever been a disciple. But Jesus picked him all the same. What can we learn from that? Who are we in this story? Are we the unifiers? Are we the ones questioning why? Or are we the ones standing on the outside, feeling like outsiders? Jesus changed things, forever. That was the whole goal and the whole point of everything. So, we have to ask ourselves, is Jesus more upset over a sinful life…or is he more upset over a society that excludes others?This talk was given on July 14, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.www.facebook.com/revolutionchurchmnwww.revolutionchurch.com/donatewww.youtube.com/revolutionbroadcasting@jaybakker@revolution1994@revolution94 Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, Justin and Matt speak with Taylor Thomas who is a PhD student in theology, ethics, and philosophy at Boston University School of Theology and a Lindamood Fellow at the Center for Mind and Culture. Taylor also hosts the Tillich Today Podcast, dedicated to exploring the profound and often revolutionary ideas of Paul Tillich, a towering figure in the world of philosophy, theology, and religion. https://taylormariethomas.squarespace.com/mindful-musings/tillich-today

Today is Part 2 of our dive into Paul Tillich's sermon You Are Accepted. The sermon in itself is great on its own, but definitely worth the deep dive into it. Tillich's sermon brings up so many good points about grace and about looking inwardly at ourselves. Do we hurt others because of our feelings about ourselves? Does self-hate keep us from loving others? Do we project our feelings of not feeling accepted? In Corinthians Paul describes to us what love is, and all of the characteristics of love—is it possible that we can't show that sort of love to others if we can't show that level of love to ourselves? That is something Jay dives into in this talk, Tillich's idea of sin being this sort of estrangement to ourselves. Is that what makes us cruel to each other? Because what does that say about us when we are cruel to one another? What does Tillich mean when he mentions ‘being struck by Grace?' Is that important? Is that something that we need in our lives? To be struck by Grace? In this week's talk Jay, through the lens of Tillich's sermon, discusses all of this and more. It's a real great talk and we're excited to share it! You can hear the sermon in full, read by Peter Rollins, on the Revolution YouTube page, and wherever you listen to your podcasts.This talk was given on June 9, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.www.facebook.com/revolutionchurchmnwww.revolutionchurch.com/donatewww.youtube.com/revolutionbroadcasting@jaybakker@revolution1994@revolution94 Hosted on Acast.

Now that we're a few weeks removed from our Galatians series, Jay dives into another series of talks, this time he's talking about Paul Tillich. Tillich was both a theologian and a philosopher, so his thoughts and messages are right up our alley! Of all of Tillich's talks and teachings, Jay is focusing in on one right now—and that's Tillich's talk “You Are Accepted.” Along with Galatians, Jay believes this talk of Tillich's is one of the best things out there when it comes to grace, and he's not wrong! Tillich raises a lot of good points and good questions. What does he mean when he is talking about The Ground of Being? Is it possible that our theology is leading us in directions we're not even aware of? Why are we so fixated on division, and separating ourselves from each other? Are Sin and Grace the strangest words that we know of? Are they useless tools? Tillich talks about all of these things in this sermon—and Jay is diving in and helping us take a closer look at these points and questions in hopes that we all can get the most of Tillich's thoughts on grace and acceptance. You can hear the sermon in full, read by Peter Rollins, on the Revolution YouTube page, and wherever you listen to your podcasts.This talk was given on June 2, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.www.facebook.com/revolutionchurchmnwww.revolutionchurch.com/donatewww.youtube.com/revolutionbroadcasting@jaybakker@revolution1994@revolution94 Hosted on Acast.

After a much needed Easter break, Tillich Today is back with Dr. Nimi Wariboko, scholar, professor, and all around smart cookie. We discuss Tillich's thought in the context of contemporary economics, Pentecostal theology, and moral philosophy.

Today, I'm joined by Tolkien Heads sensation Nick Polk. Together we'll explore the Lord of the Rings, the theology of Tolkien, Tillich, Process Theology, and much, much more. Those interested in middle earth, fantasy, and philosophy won't want to miss my conversation with Nick, whose an ace when it comes to talking Tolkien. If you enjoy my podcasting antic and the music featured in each episode, check out the Instagram page! The intro to this week's episode is a LOTR inspired guitar piece arranged and composed by myself.

Tillich is well known for embracing a school of thought known as Neoplatonism, creatively pairing its ancient insights with his Existential worldview. Plotinus, popularly known as the first Neoplatonism, had a tremendous impact on Tillichian theology, particularly Tillich's understanding of God as the Ground of Being. Today, let's briefly examine some of his main his ideas to get a better sense of why Tillich may have found such inspiration in Plotinian philosophy.

How does one coherently speak about the ineffable? Was Paul Tillich a religious naturalist? This week, I talk with the ever stupendous Jeff Speaks about metaphysics, apophaticism, the complexities of naturalist theology, and how to best characterize Tillich's theological lens. This is an especially relevant episode for any one who, like Jeff and myself, thirsts for a philosophically informed spiritual framework but rejects supernaturalism. Jeff Speaks is a PhD Candidate at Boston University School of Theology studying theology, philosophy, and ethics.

Paul Tillich was a well known admirer of Nietzsche's philosophy. Reading Tillich with a close eye, the immense influence of good old Freddie on his own thought becomes crystal clear. Legend even has it that he carried a copy of at least one of Nietzsche's texts with him on the frontlines of the first world war. This week I am joined by Caroline Wall, a Boston University PhD student studying Nietzschean Ethics. With her help, let's take a dee dive into one of Tillich's foundational philosophical influences. This is the first in one of many episodes where we will be focusing on one of Tillich's major philosophical or theological influences and breaking down their ideas into bite sized pieces.

Why are we so afraid of facing death? What's it like to regularly see death and dying as an aspect of your work? Is there a better way to die? In this week's episode, I talk with Nathan Patti, a BU School of Theology graduate and chaplain resident at Yale New Haven Hospital. We discuss Tillich, drug addiction, chaplaincy, and what it means to be "called."

After reading Paul Tillich's The Courage to Be in his final year of college, Mark Muesse gave up his ambition to be a physician and decided to become a philosopher. His parents were not pleased. He began traveling the world to study its significant spiritual pathways and spent thirty years at Rhodes College sharing what he learned. Along with Tillich, his way has been illuminated by figures like Meister Eckhart, William James, Ibn ʿArabī, Confucius, and Willie Nelson. Now retired from academics, he tries to live a quiet life of reflection, still pondering the mysteries that prompted his turn to philosophy.

What's the big deal with Thomas Aquinas, anyway? And what, if anything, might ole' Tommy Aqua have to do with Paul Tillich's existential theology? This week I sit down for conversation on Aquinas, Tillich, and much more with Sarah Thomas, A recent fellow for the North American Paul Tillich Society and a theology student at the Catholic University of America.

What is the relationship between faith and doubt? How do we overcome despair when confronting the ugliest dimensions of human nature? Can philosophy help us grapple with these issues? In this episode, Dr. Samuel Andrew Shearn drops by the Pod Beyond Pod to tackle these questions and discuss his book Pastor Tillich. We talk about Tillich's time as an army chaplain during WWI, his engagement with the German philosopher Friedrich Schelling, and the meaning of justification. Dr. Shearn's web links: https://doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780192857859.001.0001 https://www.ev.theologie.uni-mainz.de/systematische-theologie-und-sozialethik/samuel-shearn/

In this episode of Tillich Today, I sit down with Dr. Robert C. Neville, a renowned philosopher, theologian, and religious studies scholar. We talk about Tillich's understanding of God as the "ground of being", his relationship to non-western religious and philosophical traditions, his ambiguous identity as a Christian theologian, and what those uninterested in academic theology can learn by engaging with his work.

After giving Tillich his due in the last episode, in this one Sarah goes off, more or less blaming Tillich and his book The Courage to Be for everything that has gone wrong in American Lutheranism for the past 75 years. Overwrought and unjust? Probably. Dad makes the case for Tillich at least asking the right questions, and not accepting certain false solutions. But we both agree there is a more excellent way. If nothing else, you'll enjoy hearing the generation gap on display as you've never before heard it on this podcast! Notes: 1. Tillich, The Courage to Be 2.

The little-known story of expatriate German theologian Paul Tillich's radio addresses from America to the German people in the depths of World War II, exhorting them to name and reject the false idol that was holding them hostage and driving millions of people to death. In this episode Dad and I explore how Tillich drew on the depths of the Bible's prophetic speech to analyze the Third Reich and the Germans' own complicity with it, the uniqueness of that situation, and what we might be able to learn from it. Notes: 1. Tillich, Against the Third Reich 2. If you read no other book by Dad, be sure to read this one: Before Auschwitz 3.

Here we are, week 2 and the conclusion of Paul Tillich's talk You Are Accepted. This week Jay finishes his study on this Tillich sermon. As Jay says a few times in this talk ‘let's not take these words lightly.' Last week we talked a bit about sin, but this week we're onto all the good stuff about grace. Do we know what it means to be struck by grace? Does being struck by grace mean we suddenly believe God exists? Or that Jesus is the savior? Or even that the bible contains the truth? Or is getting struck by grace something different that that? Is it better to refuse God and Jesus in the bible, or to accept them without grace? These are heavy thoughts, tricky to wrap our heads around. Because grace is bigger than we understand. As Tillich teaches, moral progress may be a fruit of grace, but it is not grace itself. And sometimes it can actually prevent us from receiving grace. Both Paul Tillich's original sermon, and Jay's discussion of it can really help us navigate such a tricky and complex topic. Helping us learn what grace is and accept it. And ourselves. And others. To not create God in the image of other Christians or people from church. To not become all of the things we hate. And maybe, just maybe, these discussions can help us on our fall into grace and what it means to be struck by it.Here is a link to Paul Tillich's “You Are Accepted”. Revolution is sticking around and there are some great things to come.https://wedgeblade.net/files/archives_assets/20810.pdfThis talk was given on March 19, 2023 from Seattle, Washington.www.facebook.com/revolutionchurchmnwww.revolutionchurch.com/donatewww.youtube.com/revolutionbroadcasting@jaybakker@revolution1994@revolution94 Hosted on Acast.

We made it through Galatians! And while we're always a bit bummed to finish up that study, this year we're immediately moving onto something just as great. Paul Tillich's talk You Are Accepted. In this first week of the study, Jay dives into some backstory onto who Tillich is and walks us through some of his credentials. Then we go right on in! There isn't much to say in this write-up because it's all in the talk today. It's all about learning what Tillich has to say on grace, and also try to sort out what ideas we might need to reject in order to better understand it. Because grace isn't always the easiest thing to explain. In fact, Tillich argues that it is just as hard to describe as sin is. It's a great talk that really pushes for a diversity of thought and the dangers of Christianity becoming more of a separator rather than a unifier. But, hey, nobody's perfect, we're all human and we're all flawed–we're working on it though! So, thank goodness for Paul TillichHere is a link to Paul Tillich's “You Are Accepted”.

What's courage? Are there different kinds of courage? Why is courage important? Let's see what Plato and Paul Tillich think! 

We continue our series on Changing Minds... Let the Spirit move us sounds beautiful but it has a New Age spiritualists essence to it let alone the push to find Oneness with God is a view by the Emergent Church and their 4 Theologians they follow- Schleiermacher; Ritschl; Rauschenbusch; Tillich. We need to be very careful as what we say or accept as a tone of words when they may not think what you think they mean. Much of this Wordage is used in Worship to create the atmosphere of a Spiritual Flow or Wind that we may discover God so we can become ONE.

His expertise ranges from media (both traditional and social) to broadband wireless, and from commercial transactions to regulatory policy. Mr. Cohen's government service included stints at The White House and the FCC, and he is an expert in platform regulation issues, spectrum licensing and transactions, and the rules and processes governing participation in FCC auctions. His clients have singled out his “outstanding service” on corporate and commercial transactions for nationwide recognition. He holds the Martindale Hubbell AV® Preeminent Peer Review Rating and is perennially selected as a Washington DC Super Lawyer. After announcing football and basketball games for his college radio station, Jonathan's career began as a radio news reporter in New York City.

In this episode, Ryan offers Landon three approaches to the word that have helped him frame the discussion, from philosopher Kierkegaard's palate-cleansing “virtue of the absurd”, to theologian Tillich's “centered act of personality," and finally biblical scholar Matthew Bates' “allegiance”.Useful references from the discussion: Søren Kierkegaard - was a Danish theologian, philosopher, poet, social critic, and religious author who is widely considered to be the first existentialist philosopherPaul Johannes Tillich - was a German-American Christian existentialist philosopher and Lutheran Protestant theologian who is widely regarded as one of the most influential theologians of the twentieth centuryMatthew Bates - is Associate Professor of Theology at Quincy University. His main teaching area is the Bible and early Christian literature.To join the discussion, visit us on Instagram @meaninginthemiddlepod and in the Meaning in the Middle Facebook group.Cheers! 

This is a special crossover episode with Chase Tibbs from the Faith and Capital podcast. In our conversation, Chase gives 5 reasons to go ‘Christian Socialist.' Most theology nerds know that the overwhelming majority of theologians in the 2oth century were socialists. Barth, Tillich, Niebuhr, Guiterrez and more were all committed Christian socialists, and yet today, many Christians wrongly assume the two are incompatible. I doubt everyone is going to be persuaded, but I hope more people will come to see how Chase's faith deeply informs his politics. You can check out our previous episode over here.

Michael Northcott is Professor of Religion and Ecology, Indonesian Consortium of Religious Studies, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia and Professor Emeritus at the University of Edinburgh. While he was in town between semesters in Indonesia we got to connect in his home office for energizing and nerdy conversation that covers quite a bit of ground including... how a factory job ruined systematic theology class consciousness and Christian socialism Schleiermacher, Barth, Tillich, and the socialist decision the Protestant problem with preaching scripture the birth of Radical Orthodoxy the religious predicament of modernity the task of being a member of a living tradition "Do Angels exist?" "the original sin is plant selection... the only life that is good on the planet is life we control, for we are the only beings with mentality and deserve the honor." "the biggest problem in systematic theology is its obsession with first cause and the inability to acknowledge multiple agencies" the connection between reductive accounts of agency and the political craziness in the US and UK why the bread at the Eucharist matters contemporary alienation from nature and community encountering nature anew and Jane Goodall the role of faith in ecological activism Michael mentions Saving Paradise: How Christianity Traded Love of This World for Crucifixion and Empire If you are on twitter then you should follow Dr. Northcott.
