Guest Shane Blackshear and I discuss the themes of Easter and re-birth and also heaven, N T Wright, resurrection, Holy Week, and more.
SKIP AHEAD to MIN 6:50 – we had some audio issues at the beginning. And Blab captures a 1-2 second audio lag. You will notice it in the dialogue exchange. It is a bit out of sync.
This happened LIVE on 3/12/2016.
Today’s guest has had his own podcast for more than three years. In that time, Shane Blackshear has interviewed some legendary authors, thinkers, and even a “heretic” or two on is podcast Seminary Dropout, I wanted talk to the man behind the beard. It turned out he didn’t even have a beard when we spoke. Imagine my shock.
I’ll be partnering with Shane in 2016 for more fun and surprises so stay tuned!!!

Lyrics:
Climb, climb up sunshine mountain
Heavenly breezes blow;
Climb, climb up sunshine mountain
Faces all aglow.
Turn, turn from sin and doubting,
Look to God on high,
Climb, climb up sunshine mountain
