This is the seventh installment in a series of interviews with myself and various writers and members of the Mockingbird community. These posts will explore some aspects of each individual’s personal story and some aspects of Mockingbird’s larger story and ministry as we celebrate its 10th Anniversary. Additional interviews in this series can be found here. […]
Liars, Madmen, and You: The Art of Narrative
Taylor Swift, Mary Karr, and the art of telling your life story…ready for it? From our conference in NYC this past April.

How to Have (Just) One God – Adam Morton
Don’t miss this talk from our favorite polytheist (in that amazing Cthulhu 2016 t-shirt). From our conference in NYC this past April:

Jesus and Therapy: Subjective Comfort with Objective News – Ethan Richardson
Here is one of the more powerful talks from our recent conference in New York City. Ethan talks about how we see ourselves, and what happens when someone else sees us—the real us.

Champions She Shall Never Want
I recently decided to leave Mockingbird. I do not mean that I was convinced over a bourbon-fueled colloquy with a recent Catholic convert that Sylvester Prierias was unimpeachably correct to respond to Luther’s attack on indulgences by defending papal authority. Nor do I mean that I brushed up on recent Pauline scholarship and determined that […]
Freedom in Christ, or, How Can We Do What You Do…On The Dance Floor ~ Drew Rollins
A timely meditation from the best dancer hands down at this year’s EpiscoDisco, Drew Rollins. From our recent conference in NYC:

Architect: Fellow and Failing – Duo Dickinson
Another one from the conference! This talk certainly won the “shock factor” award. From the one and only Duo Dickinson.

Another Decade Ends – David Zahl
Here it was, the capstone of our 10th Anniversary weekend, the moment when Mockingbird’s not-quite-fearless leader actually tried to describe (and he did so somewhat successfully) what it is Mockingbird is… or at least showed us what it’s tried to do these ten years. A great starting place for any new reader (or veteran one!) who’s still wondering what this is all about…
The Raising of the Crucified One – Fleming Rutledge
The speaker from the talk below received a standing ovation at our 10th Anniversary conference in NYC. Her book, The Crucifixion, has gone as viral as a 700-page theological magnum opus can. She’s Fleming Rutledge, speaking this time about the resurrection.
