Art With All Its Teeth with Joshua S. Porter

A conversation about art, music, film, and the R-rated Bible

Joshua S. Porter writes books and also does other things. The other stuff is pretty interesting; Josh has been the frontman for the experimental punk-rock band Showbread for many years. These days, he is a pastor at a church in Vancouver, Washington and is an advocate for better engagement with art and entertainment. I learnt about Josh through his book on the topic, which is the basis of much of our conversation. You can learn more about Josh at his website: https://www.joshuasporter.com/

Here are also links directly to his books and another couple that came up in our conversation:

Death to Deconstruction: Reclaiming Faithfulness as an Act of Rebellion

With All Its Teeth: Sex, Violence, Profanity, and the Death of Christian Art

God Gave Rock and Roll to You: A History of Contemporary Christian Music

Abraham's Silence: The Binding of Isaac, the Suffering of Job, and How to Talk Back to God
