About this listen
Host Doug interviews Keith Giles — former pastor, prolific author, podcaster and longtime seeker — about his journey from playing in Christian rock bands and recording at the Green Room to leaving formal ministry so offerings would serve people in need. They discuss Keith’s house church and motel ministries, his deconstruction process, and the evolution of his theology.
The episode covers Keith’s writing (the Jesus Un-series and newer quantum-themed books), his Square One deconstruction community, co-hosted podcasts (Heretic Happy Hour, Second Cup), co-ownership of Quoir Publishing, and key themes like nonviolence, a Jesus-centered reading of Scripture, continual learning, and the idea of human and divine connectedness as a path to love and justice.
