In Medias Res with Glanz & Jerončić
On this podcast, we engage in free-ranging conversations on life, faith, philosophy, ethics, relationships, culture, experience, and all matters existential. And as the title of the show points to, we approach these things "in the middle of things," that is, by grabbing hold of them unsystematically and provisionally. Concerning "about us," we are friends and verbal sparring partners who also happen to be colleagues at Andrews University.

43. GUEST EPISODE: Memory and the Stories We Live By
In this episode, Oliver is joined by Torben, a psychiatrist from Norway, and Julia, a high school teacher, mother, and CBT counselor from Austria. Together, we explore how narratives shape personal and communal identity, drawing on insights from psychology, neuroscience, and theology. The conversation delves into the formative power of memory, its connection to trauma and healing, and how we can become intentional agents in reshaping the stories we live by—for the sake of personal growth, relational depth, and spiritual orientation.
