Dorothy Day
Tim Tseng and Karen Wright Marsh wrestle with the life and legacy of Dorothy Day, the controversial American social reformer who said, “Don't call me a saint. I don't want to be dismissed so easily."
Dorothy Day was a person of contradictions: activist and contemplative, political radical and theological conservative. She founded The Catholic Worker, a Jesus-centered movement of mercy and resistance that continues to this day. Host Karen Marsh tells Dorothy’s story and then digs deeper with pastor Tim Tseng.
Guest Dr. Tim Tseng is all about helping Jesus followers flourish wherever faith and life intersect. He is currently the Pacific Area Director for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship’s Graduate and Faculty Ministries (GFM). His ministries have included being a seminary professor, scholar, founder of a non-profit organization, and pastor. Tim’s heart aches for a generation of students and leaders who will awaken the world to God’s redemptive love.
