Welcome back to the Crown & Anchor, Greyhounds! In this bonus episode Marisa, Christian, and Brett have a conversation with influential pastor and theologian Nadia Bolz-Weber.Nadia is an ordained pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (and former stand-up comic) who realized her call to ministry during a moment of tragedy after the loss of a dear friend in the local Denver comedy community. She is a renowned teacher and theologian, the founder of the House for All Sinners and Saints in Denver, Colorado, as well as a three-time New York Times bestselling author.Once we began to notice all the spiritual imagery and high church references in Ted Lasso's second season, we knew we needed to have somebody on to discuss it all. We were so incredibly privileged to be joined by a someone as gracious and perceptive as Pastor Nadia, who is a door-opener rather than a gatekeeper when it comes to church, religion, and spirituality. Plus, she's a huge Ted Lasso fan (and we have Brené Brown to thank for that!).In addition to the show's religious imagery and high church jokes, we chatted with Nadia about the show's radical stance on grace and forgiveness, how fans can continue to love Nate, and why the show's tone and humor resonate with such a wide audience.More extensive show notes can be found on our website: http://www.tedlassopod.com/nadia-bolz-weber-ted-lassoRichmond Til We Die is an episode-by-episode conversation about the Apple TV+ show Ted Lasso, where we explore the characters, their relationships to each other, and how they're able to make us laugh until we can hardly breathe one moment and then feel with the deepest parts of our hearts the next. When you're here, you're a greyhound!
