Shane Blackshear
About Shane: Jesus follower, blogger, speaker & host of the podcast Seminary Dropout.
Shane grew up in small-town west Texas, went to college and lived for a number of years in small-town central Texas until his wife Kate and he moved to the promised land of Austin, TX.
When he was 24 he and some friends planted a church in Brownwood, TX, where Shane served as the pastor for about 5 years.
About his podcast: Shane is literally a seminary dropout, but that is not, however, the primary reason the show is called “Seminary Dropout. He named it Seminary Dropout because he felt that it served as the perfect metaphor for what the show aims to do. Seminary Dropout features interviews with Christian authors, leaders, and thinkers and exists somewhere between seminary and youth camp. So it’s a little bit seminary and a little bit dropout. Get it?
Shane’s been fortunate enough to interview some amazing people like NT Wright, Phillip Yancey, Walter Brueggemann, and Christena Cleveland, among others.
