Become an INSIDER here at The Inside Job with Philip Cox. My writings are for deep souls with dusty boots. I am part pastor, part mystic, part academic. Together, we’ll walk the winding roads between grief and grace, unafraid of the shadows, always looking for the light that flickers through the cracks. With one eye on the ancient texts and the other on the modern world, we’ll explore questions that matter and always hold space for mystery. We’re building bridges—between tradition and transformation, Scripture and soul work, theology and the terrain of everyday life. Ever grounded, ever reaching.

Peace and JOY!

-Phil
