Urban Missionary Podcast is back

This week I've restarted the Urban Missionary podcast, which has been in hiatus. I talk a bit about what I'm up to these days, and what I'm thinking, in the context of the books that I'm carrying around with me and reading from day to day.

The Red Hill Conversations Podcast team is taking a sabbatical this week to catch up on a few things. Both podcasts will continue to be published here.

Here's the mentioned quote from H.H. Hrdayananda Goswami:

Hridayananda Das Goswami thanked Tamohara Prabhu for this good presentation about an important program [ed: leadership training]. We train devotees to win debates in classes, but not to persuade people to become devotees, he said. Regarding gender separation, he acknowledged its benefits, but warned that in many parts of the world graduates will face an environment far from the ideals of gender separation. He suggested that we do not employ a culture that will not serve our leaders well in the field.
