Based on the blog post by Rick Bennet entitled “an imagined conversation: Oscar Round-Table with Mark Driscoll, Brian McLaren, Ed Young, Jr, David Dark and the Rev. Smith, pastor of Berean Baptist Church,” Josh grabbed this reading with a group of folk sitting around for dinner and drinks after the last session of Theology After Google (Claremont 2010). Included in this mix are the following:

CTT: Philip Clayton
Mark Driscoll: Ryan Parker
Brian McLaren: Joshua Case
Ed Young Jr: Chad Crawford
David Dark: Tony Jones
Rev. Smith: Bob Cornwall

We hope you enjoy this mid-week lighter side of life cast. And thanks to Rick for a brilliant piece to dramatically read!
