Making faith, theology, and culture a little more human and a little less blurry. I’m Jonathan Tysick, a Canadian living in South Africa. I wear a lot of glasses and have a lot of questions. I have theology degrees from two continents and am currently working on a third (degree and continent) — which just means I have even more (hopefully better) questions than when I started. This is primarily an interview show where I get to know and interrogate Christian scholars, artists, and other thoughtful people about things that matter. If you enjoy curious, honest, conversation, please follow along.
Jonathan Tysick hosts Bespectacled and Curious, a religion show with 11 episodes published.
