About This Project

Summary

The PRX Big Questions Project—with support from the Templeton Foundation––is a podcast incubator for thinkers and storytellers making podcasts at the intersection of scientific, philosophical, and spiritual life. As part of this, four new podcasts have launched and to date have completed first seasons and have just begun new seasons. The podcasts traverse territory as engaging and varied as motherhood, tech and society, belonging in one’s faith, and Christian rock music.

Goals & Objectives

The aim of the PRX Big Questions Project is to help listeners everywhere gain a deeper understanding of how issues such as spirituality, character, ethics, and humility connect to their daily lives. In other words: to address humanity’s profound questions through the engaging art of podcasting.

Results & Impact

The podcasts: Moral Repair––exploring tech w/ experts & philosophers. Mother Is A Question––cracking open motherhood w/ mothers from all walks of life. Rock That Doesn’t Roll––how Christian music has surprisingly shaped our world. Second Sunday––exploring relationships to church from Black queer POV
