  1. Walter Brueggemann: The Prophetic Imagination

    Walter Brueggemann: The Prophetic Imagination

    Renowned theologian Walter Brueggemann passed away in June 2025 at the age of 92. In this special retrospective episode of No Small Endeavor, we celebrate his remarkable life and legacy. Drawing from memorable conversations and insightful lectures, we revisit Brueggemann’s piercing critique of what he called the "totalism of market ideology"—the pervasive cultural force shaping American thought and suppressing dissenting voices. With characteristic wisdom, clarity, and wit, Brueggemann challenges us to reject narratives of scarcity, fear, and commodification, inviting us instead into the hopeful vision he famously described as the "prophetic imagination." Listen as he shares personal stories, intellectual turning points, and profound reflections on the power and urgency of truth-telling, both in pulpits and pews.  Show Notes  Resources:  "The Prophetic Imagination" by Walter Brueggemann  "My Bright Abyss" by Christian Wiman  “Thought Reform and the Psychology of Totalism” by Robert Jay Lifton  Walter Brueggemann on the NSE YouTube Channel  Similar Episodes:  Stanley Hauerwas: “America’s Best Theologian”  John Dear  Stanley Hawerwas  Transcript  You can get the unabridged version for this episode in NSE+.

    Amy Grant: Fame, Vulnerability, and Staying Grounded (Best of NSE)

    Five weeks before her 16th birthday in 1976, Amy Grant was offered her first record deal. Now, after tens of millions of record sales, six Grammy awards, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and a receipt of Kennedy Center Honors, she is widely recognized as the “Queen of Christian Pop.”  From the outside, one might assume that Amy must be a character with a personality larger than life. But in this exclusive interview, Amy opens up about her career as a singer, her family life, and her faith, all against the backdrop of a troubling past few years which have included recovering from open-heart surgery and a severe bike accident.  Through it all, she showcases what truly makes her an anomaly. In spite of her fame, she remains undoubtedly grounded to a life of quiet, peaceful fulfillment.  Show Notes  Resources:  Amy Grant's Website  Similar Episodes:  Truth-telling, Anger, and Race: Vince Gill  “Does This Make My Butt Look Big?”: Ashley Cleveland  Fighting Dragons and Singing at Loss: Drew Holcomb  Actor and Activist: Martin Sheen  Transcript  Want more NSE?

    Unabridged Interview: Charles Marsh

    This is our unabridged interview with Charles Marsh.  Has religion ever kept you from doing something that was actually good for you?  It did for Charles Marsh. As a boy growing up in the evangelical South, Charles was taught to distrust his own body, to fear his desires, and to treat suffering as a gift from God. So when debilitating panic attacks shattered his world as a young man, he thought that he should count these panic attacks as something he was supposed to feel “joy” about.  Charles is now the Commonwealth Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Virginia. Find out how he navigated shedding the taboos of his evangelical upbringing as he sits down with Lee to discuss his memoir, Evangelical Anxiety.  Show Notes  Resources:  "Evangelical Anxiety: A Memoir" by Charles Marsh  "God’s Long Summer: Stories of Faith and Civil Rights" by Charles Marsh  Similar Episodes:  What Hath Christianity to do with Psychology?

    Unabridged Interview: Freddie O'Connell

    This is our unabridged interview with Freddie O'Connell.  “If we want to thrive across the board, then there has to be an accounting for the fact that you may have things that befall you in your life that you have no control over.”  In this episode of No Small Endeavor, Lee C. Camp sits down with Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell for a conversation about moral leadership, political realism, and the promise of community.   Growing up in Nashville, Freddie O’Connell was eager to leave for Brown University. But after his career in tech was interrupted by the dot com collapse, a “catastrophic transmission failure” changed the course of his life forever. When O’Connell returned to Nashville, he began riding the bus in his hometown, and discovered how inaccessible the city was for a large swath of the population. He soon became actively involved with the Metro Nashville Transit Authority, and his career in civic engagement began.  Show Notes  Resources:  Privilege Walk   “To Love A City” by Rev.
