    1. Phyllis Tickle’s book is a very interesting read, reflection, and prediction of the future of Christianity

      1. I read that one and I have heard her on a lot of podcast interviews. Particularly the Nick and Josh Podcast and the Homebrewed Christianity podcast. What she writes makes a lot of sense in that book if you are willing to digest it.
