Trucker Frank is one of my new heroes. A proudly emergent pastor turned truck driver who has a lot of interesting friends and a true pastor’s heart. Tony Jones is the truck with Frank and the diner or wherever Frank stops along the way on this amazing road trip. The videos are designed to promote Tony’s new book, The New Christians: Dispatches from the Emergent Frontier, but they are great stories and discussion starters on their own.

In this episode, Frank and Tony are enjoying a greasy diner meal and a discussion with John, Frank’s former Brother-In-Law. It touches on the topics of taking theological education out of the hands of professional theologians, the subtle ways that we are taught to appease God, the need to become relationally based in how we do church, and the encouragement that you are not alone if you don’t fit in at your local church.
