Meet Lance Dixon and Daniel Melvill Jones, your co-hosts of Border Walkers, as they discuss the inspiration behind the podcast, and their quest to find other sojourners who have traveled beyond the edge of culture wars and identity politics toward a common humanity.
The cohosts of Boarder Walkers are Lance Dixon, director of campus ministry at St Mary’s University (https://www.stmu.ca/lance-dixon/ ) and Daniel Melvill Jones, writer and student (http://www.danielmelvilljones.com/dmj).
Daniel’s podcast with his friend, Kyle Marshall, is called Assumptions.
Makoto Fujimura’s work can be found on his website, https://www.makotofujimura.com. His book is called Culture Care
Reconnecting with Beauty for Our Common Life (https://www.ivpress.com/culture-care).
The authors Lance mentions are Rhonda Magee (https://www.rhondavmagee.com), Reva Siegel (https://law.yale.edu/reva-siegel), and Glenn Singleton (https://courageousconversation.com/about/).
The event Daniel mentioned on the Big Bang and faith featured Adam D. Hincks, SJ (https://www.stmu.ca/event/bigbang-faith/).
Lance’s four principles are 1) stay engaged, 2) expect discomfort, 3) speak your truth, and 4) accept non-closure.
Our three purposes for the Boarder Walker events and podcast are 1) to hear from others who are successfully embodying the Boarder Walker vocation, 2) to gather a community of Boarder Walkers, and 3) to create a space for rational discourse
