In this episode Andrew DeCort discusses his new book Blessed Are the Others: Jesus' Way in a Violent World (BitterSweet Collective). Andrew has been called a dissident theologian by his friends. His work is deeply inspired by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, his writing by James Baldwin, his spirituality by Etty Hillesum. He received his PhD in religious and political ethics from the University of Chicago, and his work through the Neighbor-Love Movement has invited over 20 million people into nonviolent spirituality. He's the author of Flourishing on the Edge of Faith (also through BitterSweet Collective) and writes the newsletter Stop & Think.
