A Jesuit priest famous for his gang intervention programs in Los Angeles, Fr. Greg Boyle makes winsome connections between service and delight, and compassion and awe.

Day1 host Peter Wallace talks with Krista Tippett about her award-winning public radio radio program, "On Being," and her experiences and spiritual backgroun, which make her such an effective communicator regarding faith today The Public Listener: A Conversation with Radio Host Krista Tippett There are few media (besides this magazine, perhaps) in which you could find former Fuller Seminary president Richard Mouw, social activist Shane Claiborne, and the late Orthodox theologian Jaroslav Pelikan discussing the mysteries of Christian faith back to back. But the radio dial between K-LOVE and the oldies station is a good place to start. There, on more than 200 National Public Radio stations every week, broadcast journalist Krista Tippett hosts On Being (formerly Speaking of Faith), a show dedicated to “tracing the intersection between theology and real life.” While many guests are outside the Christian tradition, the show has arguably helped demolish the misinformed stereotypes about evangelical Christians sloppily dispersed by other media. Tippett recently spoke with CT managing editor Katelyn Beaty about how her faith informs her work—what she calls “a ministry of listening rather than of preaching”—and why the best Christians today doing the most loving, faithful work in Jesus’ name are the ones we’ll never read about.

March 22, 2022: Krista Tippett, the executive producer and host of On Being, the award-winning public radio show and podcast, announced today that she is leaving the public radio system effective this June. The national weekly show, which began as Speaking of Faith in July 2003, and was renamed On Being in 2010, will continue this fall as a seasonally produced podcast.
“The front edge of growth of the organization I founded in 2013, The On Being Project, is at the intersection of media and long-term social healing,” Krista Tippett said in a letter that was distributed to the 389 station networks that air the show across the United States. “It’s time for us to live more fully into that mission, and for me to be differently present to this moment in the life of the world. For me personally, this is an energizing and necessary transition. After hosting 52 weeks of programming a year for close to 20 years, I’m ready to move to a more sustainable rhythm and to open space and time for writing, public engagement, and new extensions of our content in the world that is emerging.” Apr 24, 2022
