Aaron, Shane, Tyler and Mitch met in August of 2008, and, for reasons not entirely under their control, they clicked. At the heart of their friendship has always been a genuine love for the truly beautiful and a disinterest in conforming to arbitrary norms. While some thrust them towards the status quo, these brothers constantly pushed each other to think critically about life and confronted each other with new ideas. It was this constant dialogue which drew them together over the years.

Now, all four of them attend seminary – two in Minneapolis and two in Louisville – where their pursuit of ideas has only increased in fervor. Here you will find reflections of private conversations now accessible to the public. This blog serves as a space and motivation for these aspiring writers, preachers, and thinkers to put their conversations in writing and continue the dialogue.
