About this listen

 What happens when theological voices that challenge, question, and reimagine faith step into the conversation? Join hosts Jonathan J. Foster and Tori E. Owens as they sit down with authors, theologians, and thinkers who exist outside the approved margins—those whose ideas are too progressive, too challenging, or too honest for traditional religious spaces. "Off Canon" isn't about tearing down faith; it's about transcending and including faith traditions and in the process building something healthier. Each episode explores the intersections of theology, justice, spirituality, and culture with guests who've been pushed to the periphery for asking hard questions and offering different answers. If you've ever felt like you don't quite fit in Sunday school anymore, if you're tired of theological gatekeeping, or if you're simply curious about what faith looks like when it's freed from institutional control—this podcast is for you. Welcome to the margins. Welcome to the conversation. Welcome Off Canon.2026

    The Spectacular Introduction to Off Canon
    Feb 3 2026

    In this inaugural episode, Jonathan J. Foster and Tori E. Owens share how they ended up here—on the margins, off canon, and surprisingly okay with it. They talk about the cost of asking hard questions, the community you find when you stop pretending, sexuality, the strange journey of life, and ... cinnamon rolls.
