Entering a COVID Spring
As we traveled to record an episode of the Cupboard, we listened to our Prime Minister advise that “If you can stay home, stay home”. So maybe we won’t be gathering for some time. At least not in person.
We are in the midst of, at the beginning of, the COVID-19 worldwide pandemic…
Tragic Optimism, Moving From Fear to Hope with Dr. Lynn DuMerton
We speak with Dr. DuMerton about her work helping moms who struggle with addiction and judgment and fear, to bond with their young children.
Sexuality and Hope with Dr. Hillary McBride
We speak with Hillary about purity culture, scrupulosity, mental health and body image, changing views from one generation to the next.
No God Forsaken People, No God Forsaken Places with Tim Fretheim
At the All Saints of North America Orthodox Monastery in Dewdney, BC we gather to speak with David Goa. David has said things to us like;
“My goal is to convert evangelicals to Jesus” and “Most people are better than their theology”.

Christmas Special
Friends of the Cupboard gather in the Advent Season.
We talk about the Rankin Bass Christmas specials, particularly the weirdest ones.
With All Our Hearts, But None of Our Minds with Dr. Richard Topping
Dr. Richard Topping joins us to discuss Christian Education in general and Theological Education specifically. Can we invite even a small number of people (whether they are students or not) to commit to the intellectual aspect of faith?
From Soldiers to Midwives with Jenn Richards
We speak with Jenn about how most of our metaphors for witness and mission are traditionally masculine and even military in nature.
Your god ain’t no God at all! with Dr. Jason Byassee
We speak with Jason around the topic of polarization in the Christian Church and around the topic of Christian faith being expressed against the world.
Best and Worst of Worship with Carolyn Arends and Spencer Capier
Why is music and worship both engaging and infuriating? And why is it that what can be engaging for me can be infuriating for you?
What is hopeful about worship? How can music and singing be an essential expression of Hopeful Gospel?
Introduction to the Concept of Hopeful Gospel
The Cupboard welcomes Dr. Ross Lockhart from St.Andrew’s Hall, UBC. He has travelled the world, but keeps finding his way back to Ireland. Oh, and a note that is great for podcasting – Ross is perhaps the best dressed professor or minister in town.
