How we make sense of our world is shaped by the culture in which we find ourselves. In contrast, uncommon sense can be described as thinking outside of the box that culture presents us with.

In today’s conversation, Ken Loyd and Rob talk about how the prevailing common sense of Western culture may not always be helpful in seeking to engage or trying to help people in doing good. At times we may need to tap into uncommon sense in order to engage more meaningfully with folks. Join Rob and Ken as they explore what uncommon sense might look like in a world that seeks to live in a box.

About Ken:

Ken Loyd is husband to Deborah who is an executive coach, author and sought-after speaker. He’s also the father of four amazing individuals and grandfather of two delightful young women. He helped start The Bridge, a church in Portland for disenfranchised youth and is founder of HOMEpdx and The Underground, two convenient “churches” for his friends who live outdoors in downtown Portland.

Ken has a Masters in Intercultural Studies and is a trainer/consultant to nonprofits and churches, helping them gently love folks who have been overlooked by mainstream culture. He is not a sought-after conference speaker and his book, “They’re Gentiles for Christ’s Sake,” has sold less than 1500 copies since 2001.  He’s just a guy with something in mind.
