greg garrett

this week we talk with greg garrett, an english professor at baylor university in waco, texas and author of numerous books, including most recently “stories from the edge – a theology of grief.” he serves as writer in residence for the priests and pastors in training at the episcopal theological seminary of the southwest, and as lay preacher at st. davidÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s episcopal church in austin, texas.

greg talks about some of the difficulties and suffering he’s faced in his life and what he learned through it. he also discusses what he learned about God and suffering while serving as a hospital chaplain one summer in austin, texas.
