What Is ReKnew.org?

Updated

ReKnew.org is the website of Greg Boyd, a pastor and theologian, and it describes itself as a resource hub for what it calls the "Kingdom Revolution" — content meant to "inspire, educate and expand" a view of God centered on Jesus. If you're looking for Greg Boyd's articles, podcasts, and book announcements in one place, this is that site. It is not a general Christian content aggregator; the material reflects Boyd's own theological perspective, so it's most useful to readers already interested in his work or in the specific topics the site covers.

Who runs it and what it's for

The site is built around Greg Boyd personally — the homepage links to "Books by Greg" and to a tool for finding "a like-minded church near you." Its stated mission is resourcing a "Kingdom Revolution centered around the beautiful God we find in Jesus." In practice, that means the site functions as a home base for Boyd's writing and teaching rather than as a neutral library or a multi-author publication.

What content you'll find

The homepage organizes content into a few clear streams:

  • Recent posts — short articles and essays. Examples visible on the site include "The Silly Search for Free Will," "NEW BOOK: 'God Looks Like Jesus,'" "Love Weeps," and "Why Christ, not Scripture, is Our Ultimate Foundation."
  • Recent podcast episodes — audio content with titles like "Will God Resurrect and Judge Every Human Who Has Ever Existed?" and "Why Wouldn't Jesus Coach His Disciples to Pray?"
  • Popular topics — a set of recurring themes the site groups content under: Open Theism, Cruciform Theology, Spiritual Warfare, and The Problem of Evil.
  • Books — a section pointing to Greg Boyd's published work.
  • Email updates — a signup form for ReKnew updates.

There's also a site search and a "Search All Topics" entry point, which is the fastest way to check whether a specific question has already been addressed.

The topics it focuses on

The four "Popular Topics" give a good sense of the site's center of gravity:

Topic What it signals
Open Theism The view that God's knowledge of the future is open, not exhaustively settled
Cruciform Theology Reading God's character through the cross and Jesus
Spiritual Warfare The cosmic-conflict framing of evil and the world
The Problem of Evil How to reconcile a good God with suffering

If your interest is in one of these areas, the site is likely to have relevant articles and podcast episodes. If your interest is elsewhere, the search function is the practical way to find out.

How it's funded

The site states plainly that it runs "the way we wished the whole internet worked": high-quality original content with no ads, funded "solely by your direct support," with a prompt to consider supporting the project. That matters for how you use the site — there are no ad interruptions, and the content isn't shaped by advertisers, but the site does ask readers to contribute. The homepage does not list specific prices or membership tiers, so if you want to know what supporting it involves, you'd need to follow the support link rather than assume a cost from the homepage alone.

When ReKnew.org is the right stop

  • Use it if you want Greg Boyd's own writing and podcast episodes, especially on Open Theism, cruciform theology, spiritual warfare, or the problem of evil.
  • Use it if you want ad-free, original content from a single theological voice.
  • Look elsewhere if you need a broad, multi-perspective reference source, denominational official teaching, or content from many different authors.
  • Check the topic list or search first if you have a specific question — the site's value is depth within its themes, not breadth across all of Christianity.
