Links to a passel of podcast appearances (and a few reviews)
I’ve been on the podcast circuit the last couple months, hawking the two new books. I expect these appearances to continue for another month or so but then slowly disappear. I had no idea my sabbatical would really be about clearing my afternoons for book publicity, but there you go.
I usually remember to share links with friends and on Micro.blog, but I wanted to gather some of them here for folks who might be interested; I’ll follow links to pod with links to some reviews of either book that have been published this month. Plus a book launch here in Abilene at a local bookstore!
By the way, feel free to nag your favorite podcaster to have me on. I’m sure I’ll lose stamina by semester’s end, but it’s been so much more fun than I expected. Turns out that talking about God, church, theology, and your own writing with engaged strangers is fun! I’ve also gone on a few live radio shows that don’t record the audio for later—a rare instance of digital conversation not immediately disseminated in eternal form on the internet. Also also, more than once I’ve not realized the conversation would be captured in video form, for YouTube, hence my occasionally disheveled or casual appearance.
Last, I’ve either already recorded more podcasts or have plans to go on others that will be published in the coming months: Trevin Wax’s Reconstructing Faith, the Yale Center for Faith and Culture podcast, the Christian Chronicle Podcast, the Sacramentalists, and more. Perhaps Truth Over Tribe or Mere Fidelity, too—though I’m sure my bad takes and TV habits have led to Matt’s banning my non-Barthian, pseudo-recusant self for good.
Here’s the list for now:
Eerdmans Author Interview – YouTube
Crackers and Grape Juice – this isn’t available on Apple or Spotify yet, but a (sped up) version is available on Jason Micheli’s Substack Tamed Cynic
Marc Jolicoeur (aka “Jolly Thoughts”) – Apple | Spotify | YouTube
And here are a handful of reviews:
Christianity Today: Uche Anizor reviews Letters to a Future Saint
Front Porch Republic: Alex Sosler reviews Letters to a Future Saint
Fare Forward: Will Bryant reviews Letters to a Future Saint
The Baptist Standard: Ben Faus reviews Letters to a Future Saint
Christianity Today: Brett Vanderzee reviews The Church
Holy Joys: Johnathan Arnold reviews The Church
The Gospel Coalition: Samuel Parkison reviews The Church
Joel Wentz: video review of The Church
Last but not least, if you’re here in Abilene, the local bookstore (co-founded by one of my former students!) Seven and One is having a launch party for both books this coming Tuesday. Here’s the flyer; come out and get a book signed!
