This week's episode features audio from a workshop by Dave Friedrich entitled, There’s a Crack in Everything: The Broken Hallelujah of Leonard Cohen.
Listen to Leonard Cohen sing about, “what everybody knows”, but what we find hard to accept and express in life and faith.
Dave Friedrich was born and raised in Canada. After attending Tyndale University for Biblical Studies he went on to study philosophy at York University in Toronto for his Bachelor’s, and then completed a Master’s with a concentration in Spiritual Theology at Regent College, Vancouver.
After backpacking Europe, Dave ended up at the Swiss L’Abri where he met Anna, his lovely wife-to-be. Their two delightful sons were born in Ohio where Dave worked in a church as a Youth Director. He then had an itching to live bi-vocationally which led him to become a professional firefighter/paramedic, and an ordained Anglican minister.
The Friedrichs then spent some time working at the Swiss L’Abri before landing at Southborough L’Abri. Dave was an on-call firefighter in Switzerland and continues to be one in Southborough, where he is discovering the joy of stand-up paddleboarding.
