Selina Stone – Why Do the Wicked Prosper? (N366)

Selina Stone – Why Do the Wicked Prosper? (N366)

In this special episode, theologian and author Selina Stone reflects on one of the oldest and most unsettling human questions: why do the wicked prosper?

Drawing on scripture, history, and her own experience, Selina explores the anger, grief and moral disorientation that arise when cruelty and exploitation seem to flourish while justice is delayed.

Rather than offering easy answers, she invites us to stay present to these realities — and to notice how hope, truth and resistance might still begin to stir within us.

After Selina’s reflection, Nomad host Anna Robinson guides us into a contemplative space, helping us sit with what we’ve heard and attend to what might be emerging in our own lives.

The episode is woven together with original music by Jon Bilbrough (Wilderthorn), creating a meditative soundscape to hold the journey.
