Sports Legend Lamar Hunt Jr. Interviews with Matthew Kelly  @KansasCityChiefs

New York Times bestselling author Matthew Kelly interviews Lamar Hunt Jr., son of  @KansasCityChiefs founder Lamar Hunt and owner of the Kansas City Mavericks  @MavericksHockey .

Throughout the history of professional sports in America, few families have been so influential as the Hunt family, who have owned the Kansas City Chiefs since 1960. 

Lamar Hunt, Jr. is my guest today. He grew up in the world of professional sports, but there is so much more to him than that: He is a talented musician, president of a Catholic High School, the owner of a minor league hockey team, a devoted family man, and a man of incredible faith. 

I hope his wisdom and insights impact you as much as they have impacted me. 

There is perhaps nothing more American than a discussion about faith and football. Listen. Reflect. Share. And enjoy.

We chat about pastors plagiarizing in the pulpit.  Another mega-church pastor has been caught doing something fishy.  He allegedly uses other people's ideas and words, doesn't cite them, and then says he doesn't have to.  So, we chat about what plagiarism looks like behind the pulpit.  We also discuss MLK's "I Have a Dream Speech," and what that event teaches us about the do's and don't's of employing someone else's ideas and words when preaching.  

Episode 134 is here and Gene is spreading love all over the place.  The crew talk about the new movie Honk For Jesus with Regina Hall & Sterling K. Brown.  Chill gives some insight about chuch culture and growing up as the son of a preacher.

Deconstruction is a word that one finds floating around in Christian circles quite a bit lately.  

For some, the term promises liberating possibilities, an open door allowing fresh air into a context that has long felt stifled.  For others, the deconstruction process is dangerous, something that provokes deep anxiety, a move that threatens an unnecessary (and perhaps heretical) dismantling of valuable, historic non-negotiables at the heart of the Christian faith.

With that in mind, in this episode, we invite YOU along for a closer look at the deconstruction process.  We explore some of its connotations and we welcome the journey it entails.  We dive below the surface, peeling back some of the layers found in the idea, complete with insight into why deconstruction is often necessary, what is involved, and how it might be approached in a healthy manner. 

We hope this discussion invites new questions and new insights for those who are curious about helpfully, and faithfully, navigating the deconstruction process.

Today’s podcast is with my friend Pastor Matt Roden. Matt has served large multi-site churches and smaller churches as well. He draws out lessons from both contexts that help me think in a more focused way about the mission of the church in North America. You can find that conversation here:
