Speaking

For nearly two decades, I’ve had the privilege to speaking at conferences, festivals, seminars, faith communities, and universities.

For now, my main talk is geared toward churches and similar faith-based communities. It is about my journey with divorce and loss, and centers on power of honesty and vulnerability to heal, based on this post).

Other talks include the following:

• Civil dialogue.
• Why all the data and new studies don’t really matter much.
• The chronically anxious parent and how to combat it.
• The philosophy of belief and why we can’t choose our beliefs and how this understanding can help you love people for where they are.
• Four kinds of Christians.
• What happens if passion just means suffering?
• The polarization of Christians in politics, and how to get out.
• Status anxiety
