Follow on Google News |  Beth Green to Feature Bishop John Shelby Spong on VoiceAmerica show, Inside OutBy: VoiceAmerica “Bishop Spong is an amazing maverick. He has been debunking traditional Christian teachings for years. But when you strip away the rigid beliefs and the traditional doctrine, what’s left of Christianity?” Among other topics on the table will be: What is the purpose of spirituality in our day?, Why try to preserve Christianity at all? Is it time for people to grow out of the patriarchal Judeo-Christian belief systems and create a new spirituality that is non-doctrinal, non-hierarchical and focused on healing and oneness? Do we need to revolutionize our ideas and relationship to God?” Whether or you consider yourself a religious person or an atheist, a New Age believer, a Jew, a Moslem or a Christian or anything else, this show will bring forward ideas that are relevant to anyone who cares about how we think about life, ourselves and one another. InsideOut airs live every Tuesday at 3 pm Pacific on the VoiceAmerica 7th Wave Channel and is available on demand any time. http://www.voiceamerica.com/ About John Shelby: A now-retired Episcopal Bishop of Newark for 24 years, a biblical scholar, independent thinker, best-selling author and world-renowned speaker, John Shelby Spong is calling for a New Christianity for a New World. A man who has been threatened and celebrated, John Spong is a true radical. He has challenged fundamentalism, texts of hatred in the bible, the literal ascension of Jesus, the Virgin Birth and many other traditional Christian views. He is a long-time supporter of gay relationships and the ordination of women. His latest book, The Fourth Gospel: Tales of a Jewish Mystic, reinterprets and reframes the story of Jesus to eliminate many beliefs Spong believes have been used to justify prejudice and hate. But if you strip away so much of what has been understood to be Christianity, why bother to be a Christian? Ask Bishop Spong. A remarkable and courageous man, we feel honored to have him on our show.
