You're listening to the Allender Center podcast with Dr. Dan Allender.

This week, Dan is joined by Dr. Keith Anderson, president of the Seattle School of Theology and Psychology.

To talk about Keith's new book, a spirituality of listening.

Dan and Keith discuss what it means to listen for the voice of God in a world

that is inundated with screens and sound bites.

Well, a privilege that I have as a result of working at the Seattle School of Theology and Psychology

is to be with a dear friend and also my boss, Dr. Keith Anderson.

And Keith is a man whom I will take some small credit in having some degree of influence

of him writing this book that we're talking about today and that is a

spirituality of listening living what we hear and this book I will also say I've got the

privilege of writing the foreword but the there are very few people who if they write

an email I will read as if I'm reading literature.

This book, written by my dear friend, is a book that is delectable.

The content rich and compelling and life-changing, but also the writing is simply beautiful and

comes out of Keith's long history of the love of the Word, the Word of God, and the love of

words. And so Keith, my great privilege to be in a position of asking you questions for

two episodes of our podcasts. Thank you.

You are very welcome. And once again, I am, as I'm sure all of you are aware, filled with

a bit of intrepidation at the daunting task of sitting across a desk, my desk,

as it turns out, with my dear friend Dan Allender, whom I respect and who is significantly responsible

for pushing me to write for which I am grateful. Well, honestly, there are so few people who write

as well as you do, even an email. I mean, for me, emails are tossaways, a brief communication.
