S02 E14. The 500-year cycle of Church splits and the corrosion of trust in the written word.
Are we experience the emergence of a new kind of Christianity? If scripture is not the central authority in a Christian's life, who or what is the authority?I recorded some thoughts on the other side of publishing an article titled: I believe the Christian Church is ripe for a significant split (and it is AI-assisted).https://davidtensen.com/i-believe-the-christian-church-is-ripe-for-a-significant-split-and-it-is-ai-assisted/

S02 E13. If I were to lead a faith community, what would be important to me.
A few days back someone asked me if I would ever go back to working at a church and if I were to lead a Christian church community, how I would do it. This impromptu episode covers some of the core components I'd include... as you might guess, they aren't 'normal', or 'common', or necessarily 'popular' - but they are really important to me.

S02 E12. Reflections on 21 years of parenting and judging parental success.
It's been a little while. My eldest turned 21 recently. She's doing great, but is that because of me and her mum? Some may argue that parenting success can be accurately judged based on children's achievements and behaviors. I argue it's far more complex than that and share how I judge my parenting.I also share a bit about a recent trip to Japan.
