    RICK SALUTIN: skeptic, fighter, democrat
    Jul 30 2023

    RICK SALUTIN is the author of Gideon's Bible: A Father and Son Discuss God, the Bible and Life.

    This is the final episode of Season 1. AuthorTopia will be back in the fall.

    Do the stories in the Bible push your buttons?  For Rick and his son Gideon, God and the characters in the Bible trigger a lot of questions… questions about how God behaves, how the characters behave and how the people they see everyday behave.  Rick and Gideon are not shy to call out bullshit as they search for wisdom.

Just what I needed

First, let me start by saying I love Frank’s voice and inflections. I am always interested in the interesting/crazy/cool/amazing happenings in people’s lives. I like how he asks the right questions and lets the guest tell their story the way they want. I can already tell this series is going to be a favorite of mine and I can't wait for the next episode.
