AHUMC is delighted to welcome Dr. Jonathan J. Foster as a guest speaker in all Sunday services on August 30, 2026!
Dr. Foster is a partner of one, a father of three, a former church planter, and someone who's spent years thinking deeply about faith and community. When he's not writing or podcasting, he's the chief advocate for lovehaiti.org, an organization doing healthcare and education in some of the most overlooked and underserved areas of the Western Hemisphere.
He holds a doctorate in theology from Northwind Seminary, where he studied under Thomas Jay Oord. His dissertation turned book, is titled Theology of Consent: Mimetic Theory in an Open and Relational Universe. His book indigo: the color of grief has been featured on dozens of podcasts and endorsed by a host of interesting thinkers and authors, including Peter Rollins, Jack Caputo, Rob Bell, Paul Young, Catherine Keller, and Brian McLaren.
Dr. Foster will offer a message based on Psalm 139 entitled "Jesus is the Question" in the 8:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. Sanctuary services and the 9:30 a.m. Modern service. All are welcome!
COMMON SPACE
Welcome to our first Common Space episode with a guest on the pod! We genuinely couldn’t think of anyone better to be the first than author and podcaster, Jonathan Foster. So, in preparation for his upcoming trip to speak at AHUMC, our hosts hopped on a call with Jonathan to discuss his powerful and profound book, indigo: the color of grief.
