Episode 208 - Tyg Tyler - Who You Walking With - Part 2
Saturday Mar 30, 2024
Saturday Mar 30, 2024
Tyg Taylor is the founder of Wholly Kicks. He likes to ask: What moves you to action? How do you get out of your head and take the first few steps in your walk?
These are the reflections that moved Tyg to become the founder and Executive Director for Wholly Kicks, a 501c(3) serving Aurora and the greater Denver area. In short, Tyg is about action. After over 28 years as a "more traditional" pastor, in the Evangelical Lutheran Church, Tyg turned his focus to serving those on the margin. He felt the call to get out of his head and into the streets to help those experiencing economic disparity.
Wholly Kicks is based in Aurora and serves the greater Denver area with 3 primary goals in mind:
- Promoting the rights and well-being of those experiencing homelessness in everything they do.
-
Supporting Aurora, Colorado and the surrounding Denver Metro area.
-
Focus on reaching those in impoverished areas or at risk of homelessness.
Wholly Kicks exists for the purpose of “walking with” those in impoverished areas or those at risk of or, experiencing homelessness. Through the distribution of new shoes and socks, the focus of Wholly Kicks is to mentor and build relationships in “walking with” individuals experiencing economic disparity.

If the world is governed by certain physical laws, what does it mean for God to act in the world? During this episode, we'll conclude our discussion with Dr. Brian Gamel who will talk with us about Rudolf Bultmann! (one of the greatest theologians of the 20th Century!) We'll look at the context around Bultmann’s theological development, his view of demythologizing God, the Resurrection, and other aspects of divine action in the modern world.
If you want to read more about Rudolf Bultmann, Dr. Gamel recommends the work of David Congdon. https://a.co/d/73oW6y8
So, get ready to pour yourself a devilish, high gravity barrel aged stout, & Prost to another brewtastic conversation!
//
Dr. Brian Gamel is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Baylor. Earlier in life he studied Microbiology (B.A.) at the University of Missouri before pursuing theology at Duke University (M.Div.) and earning his doctorate in New Testament at Baylor University (Ph.D.). He also serves as a parishioner at St. Alban’s Episcopal Church in Waco. He has three children who remind him that his guitar skills are decidedly sub optimal and in his free time he pretends to be a runner.

Friday Feb 09, 2024
Friday Feb 09, 2024
In this episode we learn more about Laudato Si' and the deep theology behind this encyclical. We are challenged to consider that:
We are of the earth. And, how is the earth dreaming through us of the change, as we confront the need to address climate change?
Latin for "Praised Be," Laudato Si' is the name of Pope Francis' encyclical on caring for our common home — planet earth. Join us was we host Dr. Celeste Rossmiller to talk about all things Laudato Si', a groundbreaking Papal encyclical on climate and Catholic social teaching. Dr. Rossmiller shares the history behind this document, its impact on Catholicism and the world and large, and the call it fives for all humans to save the planet. We will have even more brewtastic knowledge to drop in Part 2.
Dr. Celeste Rossmiller taught Comparative Religion at Regis University and Metropolitan State College. She is a member of Together Colorado and serves on the Climate Justice Committee. Dr. Rossmiller is a certified trainer for Laudato Si’
