Some Sort of Ministry: Recent Episodes
Tyson House Campus Ministry
Looking for fresh and funny conversations about new directons in the Christian Church? On Some Sort of Ministry, young adults discuss their ideas for the present and future of intentional Christian communities. This most often occurs through conversation with a variety of guests about how each of us can use our gifts as some sort of ministry! Hosted by residents at Tyson House Lutheran and Episcopal Campus Ministry in Knoxville, Tennessee. Sometimes silly, sometimes serious, always some sort of ministry.
Welcome to the new season of Some Sort of Ministry! Ezra will give an update on the future of the podcast and our new hosts (Elijah and Lucas) will introduce themselves. We can't wait to start podcasting again!
This week we welcome former Tyson House resident Will Root to tell us a little about his experiences in the Episcopalian navy! Thanks for tuning in.

This week on Some Sort of Ministry, the boys answer the questions y’all sent in! If you want to know more about what it looks like to be a queer Christian or an ally, stay tuned. And as always, goof on, stay dank, and live mas.
This week, we have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Misty Anderson about her ministry as an educator, mentor, and former Madonna-era bangle-wearer. Misty is the faculty advisor for Tyson House Campus Ministries, a faculty member in the English, Religious Studies, AND Theatre departments at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, and a wonderfully fun friend of the show. This episode is what some might call an ABSOLUTE BANGER, perhaps in spite of Adie and Sam... but hey - you knew what you signed up for. Thanks for tuning in!
We really have to remember to do these descriptions for y'all. Anyway, this week on Some Sort of Ministry, Sam and Adie talk to current Tyson House intern and social justice expert Clinton Ricks. Clinton discusses his childhood, what his job here looks like, and how the church can (and should) be involved in social justice activism. From there, we discuss what the past year at Tyson House has taught him about his own unique "some sort of ministry."
Reachin' out... touchin' me... touchin' you!!! Sweet Hannah Nolan is our guest this week to talk about all things outreach, living in intentional Christian community, doing our promo photography, and a few weird history fun facts. As always, the podcast hopes to showcase the unique ways college students and young adults can use their talents to be, wait for it... Some Sort of Ministry.
Welcome to the pilot episode! Get to know our current hosts Adie and Sam, and learn what this podcast is all about. Thanks for listening!
