About

In the new podcast, "God for Grownups," two friends seek a deeper understanding of scripture, faith and everyday life from the perspectives of Judaism and Christianity, with plenty of coffee and laughter along the way. The show is hosted by "Dan & Bea," a.k.a. Dr. Beatrice Lawrence of Seattle University, an expert in the Hebrew Bible and Jewish Hermeneutics (and future daytime talk show host); and Rev. Dr. Dan Peterson, a theologian (and aspiring superhero) who is pastor of Seattle's Queen Anne Lutheran Church.
