  • Affirming God's Goodness Amidst Suffering, with Alan Noble

    Affirming God's Goodness Amidst Suffering, with Alan Noble
    Mar 3 2026

    Welcome to the Trinity Forum Conversations podcast.


    As we move through the season of Lent, we’re offering a series to help each of us prepare the way of the Lord. It’s a good time to take stock of our spiritual practices, and our guide today is the author and professor Alan Noble.


    In his book, On Getting Out of Bed: The Burden & Gift of Living, Alan contends that simply deciding to engage with the world each day constitutes a declaration of the goodness of God:

    “Now, there may come times when you are required by your suffering to radically depend upon others to carry you out of bed. My advice is to embrace those moments, knowing that you’ll carry your neighbor in return when the time comes.”

    This episode is drawn from an Online Conversation recorded in 2023. We hope you enjoy the conversation.

  • Habits of the Way with John Mark Comer

    Habits of the Way with John Mark Comer
    Feb 17 2026

    As we move into the season of Lent, we’re offering a series to help each of us prepare the way of the Lord. It’s a good time to take stock of our spiritual practices, and today’s guide is the author John Mark Comer.


    In his book Practicing the Way, John Mark explores the practical realities of what it means to be an apprentice of Jesus:

    “It seems to me that the telos of the spiritual journey in the Christian way is becoming a person of love through deepening union with the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit…It’s the two greatest commandments: love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself, that Jesus put at the center of apprenticeship to him.”

    This episode is drawn from an online conversation recorded in 2024.

  • America's Vanishing Church, with Ryan Burge

    America's Vanishing Church, with Ryan Burge
    Feb 3 2026

    Many of us have been grieved by the polarization we see rending so many churches. What role has this played in America’s growing secularization and what our guest has called “the great dechurching”? And is that dechurching now actually in reverse? Fundamentally, what can we do to pursue the flourishing of both the church and the nation?


    In this episode, our guide is Ryan Burge, an ordained minister, best-selling author and professor of practice at the Danforth Center on Religion and Politics at Washington University.


    His book The Vanishing Church draws upon his scholarship as a data scientist, and his experience as a pastor, to explore how the church has been harmed by, and can offer healing from, the excesses of political combat and division:

    "[Attending church] is just good for your soul. It's just good for you as a person to be part of a community like that ... I think it's actually going to be good for democracy for you to realize what it's like to go ... get in the real world and realize it's actually a cool place to hang out, and there's value in that."

    This episode is drawn from an online conversation recorded in 2026. Please subscribe to this podcast - it helps people find us.
