Christian faith deconstruction; divorce; his mothers' death; therapy, and becoming a therapist; honesty; and his new novel.
Jeff Newburg is a therapist, a lifelong artist, and an old friend of Nick's from their days in a Meisner acting program back when they were in their twenties. Jeff's latest creative focus has been the completion of his first novel - Shame Baseball - which tackles Christian faith deconstruction. Jeff at one time identified as an Evangelical, and Born Again Christian. Through an immense amount of personal work and growth, and illuminated by fatherhood, his mothers' death and his recent divorce, Jeff has left his previous Church home and embarked on an entirely new life journey. It's an extraordinary share, confident and vulnerable and kind, and there's even a moment so unexpected and sincere it knocks Nick for a loop. It was a genuine joy and honor to reconnect, and listen to his story.
Here's where you can buy Jeff's book!: Shame Baseball (There will be an audiobook too!)
And here's a link to the Johnny Cash song Jeff and I talk about in the episode: If I Give My Soul (written by Billy Joe Shaver, from the Unearthed Box Set)
