Upside Down Church
Upside down church is taking all things religion, spirituality, church and especially the Christian Church and turning them upside down. Why turn it upside down? Because when we turn the church upside down it will force us to look at it from a different view. How do I suggest turning the church upside down? Well, by allowing non-believers to be the preacher, the pastor, the priest. This is so that all people, the believers and non, might taste, learn and see how even God is at work in something, like the upside down church...Upside down church will also offer a variety of ways to 'see' church and religion differently. The podcast offers church services officiated by non-believers. There will be meditation style podcast for believers or non. The podcast will also offer talks and thoughts to provoke and stimulate the listeners by considering, the holy and unholy "other". This podcast is 100% serious and also 100% satire. Enjoy the heresy... Who leads these shenanigans? Bryant is the leader of this heresy. Bryant was and still is a pastor. With over 10 years of church leadership as a pastor, consultant and innovator in large and small churches. Currently Bryant is a hospital chaplain. Bryant felt it was time to let it all hang out and just go for it. feel free to contact via email: upsidedownchurchcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For this Upside Down Church Service we have Dan presiding.
Dan is interesting case, he is/was a former Jehovah's witness who does not really attend church or do much religious practice but still has a belief in God.
Dan I think, is like many people I run into, In-Between. In-Between belief and unbelief. Dan seems to have a faith but it is not connected to or practiced in a 'church'.
