    This week during our discussion of repairing the world, we talk with Dr. Evan Johnson, who studies the 30 Years War in Germany, to remember the continuity of human resilience in extended conflict zones.  We discuss the importance of history, memory, and mourning; as well as, considering how we can be part of repairing the world by the way we think about, study, and teach about conflicts that destroyed so many lives.  Book Recommendations: Coping with Life during the Thirty Years’ War (1618-1648) Sigrun Haude https://www.amazon.com/1618-1648-Studies-Central-European-Histories/dp/9004466479/ref=sr_1_1?qid=1671420038&refinements=p_27%3ASigrun+Haude&s=books&sr=1-1

    What is History Even Supposed to Do?! Chatting About China and the British Empire

    Do you ever read about something that makes you so mad because you weren't taught it in school?  Or maybe you were, but it was taught in this "well, that happened on this date" with no discussion or further inquiry? Well, your hosts At the Rectory had some questions about history, and thankfully we have our neighborhood Historian Katie at the ready! We believe that asking questions and being curious play a huge part of healing and changing the world.  Stay tuned at the end when our sound-engineer, David Lai, hops on and gives us his perspective!

    "Reimagining Revelation" with Dean Flemming at the Rectory

    Ever just avoid that weird book at the end of the Bible?  Or have you ever listened to someone preach about how all the signs and symbols point to current events and map out how the End Times will Come? Ever watch Left Behind? Even if the answer to all of the above is, Nope! - you should stick around for this chat with the lovely celebrated author Dean Flemming! His new book "Foretaste of the Future: Reimagining Revelation" is all about changing how Evangelicals have often read and interpreted Revelation.  Dean has worked globally and just retired from teaching at MidAmerica Nazarene University - and you can tell he has a heart for people and students in particular. You are not going to want to miss this amazing conversation at the Rectory this week!

    The Theology of Grilled Cheese Sandwiches: Pastor Meg Comes Back to the Rectory

    Shall we say that Pastor Meg is our unofficial pastor of At the Rectory?  We know you love her and so she is back to chat with us about what it even looks like to Pastor in these 'anxious times'  -- Welcome Megan Trischler!  The last time we had Megan on, she wasn't quite sure what her next adventure would be. She felt called to ministry after her design job came to an end, but the question was WHO and WHERE would she minister? Within months of our last conversation Megan was officially invited on staff at University Christian Church, located near the University of Cincinnati!  So we catch up with what her life looks like now, and reflect on how important it is to just be present with each other and with God.  As any good pastor, Meg turns the tables on us and asks Katie and Anne some questions, too! Stick around towards to end to hear more about the "Theology of Grilled Cheese Sandwiches!"

    How Our Favorite Stories Help Repair (and Resist) the World

    We are joined by our friends bringing their friends to the podcast today! Kyle Sondereker connected us with the fabulous Isaiah Hunt and we got to chat about why we love stories, Afrofuturism, and challenging a Eurocentric story structure!  As fiction continues to become reality (with all our technological advancements), more than ever the world we create in sci-fi fantasy could become our future. And we believe that it is that imagination and ingenuity that can help solve some of the major issues our cultures face today.  And in the middle of geeking out over DnD and our favorite Anime, we have a great discussion about the history of colonialism and the ways that 'myth-making' can be damaging - like Manifest Destiny and White Supremacy. So, join us for this wild ride, on this week's episode of At the Rectory!
