Description

Recently, I was able to sit down to have a conversation with Dr. Marty Folsom. Marty is a theologian who is committed to nurturing relationships and interested in the quest for intimacy. For Marty, this is all about personal relationships with God and other humans.

Marty and I discuss music, which for me will always be my comfort zone when it comes to the arts. We also step into literary spaces, discussing a couple of authors who lean into the theological dimension of music. Much of our conversation also focuses on the work of 20th-century Swiss theologian Karl Barth. Dr Folsom is one the leading scholars when it comes to Barth and has thus far published two books in a series of “Karl Barth’s Church Dogmatics for Everyone”.

For more on Marty and his work, I encourage you to check out his website and his books:
