Nadia Bolz-Weber, the Sarcastic Lutheran

Event Description

“I grew up in church but I hated Christianity. I hated the smallness and the narrow-mindedness. I hated the fact that we had to reject everyone who wasn’t just like us.”  Nadia is now a Lutheran Pastor and the author of “Salvation on the Small Screen” and “Pastrix: The Cranky, Beautiful Faith of a Sinner & Saint”.  She is the founding pastor of House for All Sinners and Saints, an ELCA mission church in Denver, Colorado. She's a leading voice in the emerging church movement.  Listen to Nadia on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM9Y5S3UYi8

 

 

“Nadia Bolz-Weber has probably done more than any other pastor in recent times to poke therapeutic fun at the misdemeanors and flaws of overly-churched Christianity and Christians. The passion behind her words, however, is as deeply pastoral as it is God-drenched and liberating….thus the affection as well as the respect that attend her and her work wherever she goes.”
