In the Coracle

Current Podcasts, 4/2008

April 5, 2008 // Tags: Faith, Podcast, Sports, Technology

Colleen asked me to write about the podcasts I’m listening to these days. Turns out that it was almost exactly a year ago that I wrote my last podcast list. Some stuff has changed in the last year, some hasn’t.

A few things to note: I’ve listed the podcast title, and I’ve linked to wherever the podcast links to. I you can’t find the podcast at that link, go to iTunes and search for the title I’ve given.

I’ve noticed that the sermon podcasts that I listen to are basically just people I know, people I want to keep following. I don’t really listen to sermons for information, so the sermons you’ll find in here are all people I know or follow closely in some way.

There’s a lot of sports podcasts in this group! I think partly this is due to the fact that I love a good interview, and even though I perhaps only listen to 10% of the episodes, I also notice that I listen to sports when I’m going to sleep, as they help my brain settle down.

I’d love to know what you’re listening to also!

Introduction

Welcome! I'm Pat Loughery, and I'll be your host here. Feel free comment on what you see here. I am a lay missionary to North Bend on the east side of Seattle, a husband, dad to 2 kids, a software test manager for Equiom, Inc.,, a software consulting company. I'm also a failed and (quite possibly future) church planter and a Doctor of Ministry student with Bakke Graduate University, and usually on this blog we discuss Christian spirituality (especially of the Celtic, post-Evangelical, post-Charismatic and neo-monastic flavors), photography, motorcycles, and other oddball things.

About the Coracle

I'm trying to live a deep and relational Christian life. As I study Christian spirituality, I find the Celtic stream helpful, challenging and liveable. One of the images from early Celtic Christianity is their sea transport - the coracle.

The ancient Celts traveled in coracles - handmade, wooden framed and hide-covered boats, to journey where the trinitarian God led them. Though the transportation was simple, the journey was profound. This image is an illustration of the way I experience God's guidance - an invitation to travel with him on his paths, not mine; at his pace, not mine.
