Video Interview: Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove ("New Monasticism" author), pt 1

I recently had the opportunity to chat via Skype with Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove.  We discuss everything from his story, to the New Monasticism Movement, to his latest book: “The Wisdom of Stability: Rooting Faith in a Mobile Culture.”  He is also the author of: “God’s Economy: Redefining the Health and Wealth Gospel,” “New Monasticism: What it has to say to Today’s Church” & co-author (with Shane Claiborne) of “Becoming the Answers to Our Prayers: Prayer for Ordinary Radicals.”  You can also check out – http://www.newmonasticism.org

    Interesting so far… I have to be honest… I did not expect that accent to come out of his mouth. But, I think accents make things better.

    So, Kurt, next time you do an interview you need to have an accent… I say Irish!

    Great stuff!

    Yes, it is a great interview thus far. Spending time with the Homeless has been the catalyst for me as well.

    “And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” ~ Matthew 25:40

    I do not understand how the Church can ignore these words. It does not matter to me if they are on the streets because of drugs or alcohol, these are hurting & broken people who need to feel the love of Jesus.
