Sacred Rage - Ben Cremer
We sat down with Rev. Benjamin Cremer, writer, pastor, and creator of Into the Gray, to talk about what it looks like to hold sacred anger with open hands.This conversation stretched from “What if I’m wrong?” to “How do we keep from passing our pain along?” We talked about retributive vs. restorative justice, how lament can heal our nervous systems, and why gentleness might just be the most radical form of resistance.Ben reminded us that curiosity is a spiritual practice, lament is a sacred protest, and gentleness—far from weakness—is creativity...

070: Articulating Your Own Faith After Religious Control with Ben Cremer
Have you ever felt like you are disobeying God or being rebellious when you think independently about your faith? For those who have been taught black-and-white answers about Christianity, stepping into the gray can feel unnerving because it calls us beyond the shores of certainty towards something more mysterious. But we know that certainty was never the point.Ben Cremer joins us on this episode to talk through what it's been like for him to move away from binary thinking.

The Power of Cultivating Humility with Rev. Ben Cremer
In this episode, we talk with Ben Cremer—pastor, writer, and author of Into the Gray—about masculinity, humility, binary thinking, and the deep spiritual cost of choosing power over people. Ben opens up about his painful exit from denominational ministry, how his upbringing in Idaho shaped his faith, and why Jesus' model of strength challenges the dominant cultural narratives of manhood. We explore themes of empathy, nonviolence, spiritual formation, and the courage it takes to be curious and kind in polarized spaces. This conversation is a garden of nuance, honesty, and healing.Takeaways

110. Ben Cremer - Politics and Faith, Extending Grace, and a Church Fused with Empire
Benjamin Cremer is a pastor who spends his time these days in the online space in the intersection of Christianity and politics. Having grown up in white Christian nationalism in the U.S.A. Ben now gracefully explores how faith in Jesus offers a critique to policies and ideologies that many Christians actively support. We talk about his upbringing, the changes in his faith, the costs of those changes on relationships, and how his more open understanding of God has given him the ability to better love others. We also discuss how he interacts with people by...

Pastoring in the Shadow of Idols: Prophetic Ministry in Modern America
Caleb is joined by Ben Cremer and David Ritchie for a candid conversation about navigating the complexities of pastoral ministry in politically charged and culturally entrenched environments. From the Confederate roots of Idaho to refugee ministry in West Texas, the three pastors explore how historical context, political idolatry, and cultural assumptions shape the church’s witness today. They share their own evolving journeys—from avoiding politics to addressing justice and social action through a gospel lens. They offer practical guidance for pastors, emphasize the power of gentle, Spirit-led truth, and call the church back to the cruciform way of the...
