In this episode of Faith Transitions, Rev. Phil Dieke interviews Joshua Luckett about his faith journey and his work at the Stewpot, a resource center for people experiencing homelessness. Joshua shares how his upbringing in a socially liberal household clashed with the socially conservative theology of the Southern Baptist church he attended. He discusses the catalysts that led to his faith transition, including reading the Gospels and witnessing the response of evangelicals to the Trayvon Martin case.

Joshua also talks about his love for transitions and his desire to invest in the communities he serves. Overall, his faith has shifted towards a focus on action and making a tangible impact in the world. In this conversation, Phil and Josh discuss various topics including the complexity of life, the intersection of politics and faith, and the importance of local engagement. They explore the wisdom literature in the Bible and how it challenges simplistic interpretations of life. They emphasize the need for comprehensive solutions to social issues and the importance of creating an environment for change. They conclude by encouraging mutual submission and collaboration between different generations in the church.

Quote: "The best we can do is make the most of what the world God is putting before us."
