  • 46. Stirrers and Saints: A Chat with Brian Harris about Being a Leader
    Jun 10 2024
    In this episode of the Isms and Schisms Podcast, Aaron sits down with Dr. Brian Harris to discuss the theology of leadership and how everyone has the potential to be a leader. Leadership is a noble thing to aspire to. They make a difference in the world and pave the way for a better future. They are convicted of a belief that drives them to do something and to have a positive impact. No matter who you are, where you’ve come from, what you’re doing right now - you can be a leader, and you can be a better leader. Brian Harris is an accomplished theologian, pastor, and leader, who has a wealth of experience in leadership - from being the principal of a theological seminary for 17 years, to sitting on national boards, to being a pastor and a preacher almost all of his life, to founding the Avenir Leadership Institute. This episode may not technically be an ’ism’ or a ’schism’ but it’s crammed full of wisdom. They discuss ethical leadership examples, talk about historical leaders - the good and the bad - and chat through plenty of leadership theory that will inspire you and encourage you to step up and to say ’yes’ to life.

  • 44. Postmodernism
    May 27 2024
    Postmodernism is literally that which came after modernism. Where modernism is defined by the belief in universal rules and codes, and an optimistic hope in the inevitable progression of human society to a perfect utopia, postmodernism is defined by local beliefs and fragmentation, an emphasis upon subjective perspectives, and long French surnames. So how does this affect Christian theology and practice? What is truth? Why should I care? Listen to this episode to find out!
