Oh, yeah. What is up homebrewed Christianity? Listeners, this is Tripp. And it is time to nerd out with your geek out.

Because Bruce Rogers Vaughn is back on the podcast. That's right. He is not just a scholar of religion, not just a

therapist who spent thousands of hours working with people individually, but he's someone

that brings a larger picture of the pressures and anxieties our current economic system

brings to the individual and to the community as a whole. In this conversation, we talk

about that our current predicament. We talk about the pastoral task, the congregational challenges,

and wrestle with ways to just diagnose this moment and the rise of pressure and anxiety and such.

This growingly ubiquitous in culture.

Before we jump into this, I just want you all to know this was a little special visit

to our current reading group that is going on, the Capital Change Reading Group with

York Rieger.

York and I have been going through a theological critique of economy, looking at alternative

economic systems and how as individuals and as communities and communities of faith,

and we can organize and bound together to have more thriving, equitable, and life-giving relations.

If you want to join that reading group, get access to everything that's already happened,

then all you got to do is go to mammon or god.com.

Mammon or god.com.

It is an open online class. You can donate anything you want, including zero or a million dollars no more. And you can get all successions. You'll get to interact in video and in audio. We get to interact with some amazing people in the Facebook group. And on top of all that, you can send questions for, you know, our next big special guest,

the last special guest of the class, Richard Wolfe, the economist.

If you don't know who he is, then you'll find out.

But if you do, then you're going to be like, oh, this is, that's awesome.

So yeah, check it out, Mamun or God.com.
