James-good to hear from you, it sounds like things are going perfectly for you. I hope I'm in Houston some day and could join ya'll.
As for starting one up from a pragmatic, Tim, I couldn't have said it any better. Mary, I hoped that was more helpf…
yeah, I agree - there's been some discussion at St. Margaret's about starting up a group - I think there's definitely space for it on the Eastside.
Thanks. That's really helpful. Don't know if we'll do it, especially since you're already doing it nearby. I think Crossroads in Bellevue would be a great venue - it's already a natural community gathering place. Wonder if Resurrection folks would c…
We've (kind of) started up from scratch several times - or at least from not much. Here's how I would go about the process: 1) Start with a facilitator willing to guide conversations for at least a six-month startup commitment - you've got to have a…
Jon, You haven't actually offered any nuts-and-bolts information on how to start a theology pub from scratch. Could you help us out here? I very much enjoyed the one at convention, but you had a ready-made group that wanted to talk theology in a pub…
Jon-thanks for sharing this! Good work. I've been doing a Bible study in a bar for Pentecost. I'm in Houston. We started at a bar just a few blocks from the church, but they didn't serve food, so we moved to another Noise has been an issue at both,…
That is tough. One option would be to start another pub and design it for community and conversation. Obviously that takes capital and business minds. The other option would be to find a night of the week where the pub is slower and maybe they'll wo…
I have been facilitating a Theology on Tap since June, and that loud pub problem is the single largest issue. There are precious few bars in my small town (suburb of Tulsa), so we moved it to the (only) coffeeshop, which also has a noise problem. I…
On Friday, Oct. 16 at annual Convention for the Diocese of Olympia, the Commission for Emerging Mission (CFEM) will be sponsoring a workshop on doing Theology Pub. I will be facilitating that time with a basic introduction. Since we will not have th…

Starting a Theology Pub
On Friday, Oct. 16 at annual Convention for the Diocese of Olympia, the Commission for Emerging Mission (CFEM) will be sponsoring a workshop on doing Theology Pub. I will be facilitating that time with a basic introduction. Since we will not have the much time, I thought I would post some thoughts, tips, tricks, etc. here and point people to this page.
