    How Radical Islam Caused 9/11: Returning to the Sources and Bin Laden - Chris Stolzfus Sep 10, 2026
    Show notes

    25 years ago, America fundamentally changed with the attacks on September 11, 2001. Since then, the world has grappled with the rise of global terrorism, war in the Middle East, and the refugee crisis. But how and why did the 9/11 attacks happen? What led us up to this moment?

    Chris Stoltzfus brings his years of Middle Eastern experience and Islamic studies to this conversation, explaining the origins of radical Islamic fundamentalism. How does its foundation compare to the foundation of Christianity? How should we engage with, and respond to, radical Islam?

    The Theologian of Early Anabaptism Who Died for Politics - Dean Taylor Sep 03, 2026
    Show notes

    Figures like Conrad Grebel, Felix Manz, and Michael Sattler are well known for their roles in the founding and first years of the Anabaptist movement. But there was another figure important to the beginnings of Anabaptism that we rarely hear about. This man, Balthasar Hubmaier, did significant work on Anabaptist theology up to his martyrdom in 1528. He also had his share of weakness and struggle. Dean Taylor gives a profile of who Hubmaier was, what he contributed to the Anabaptist movement, and how his failings led to tragedy.

    Bridge Campaign

    For nine years, generous supporters have enabled Anabaptist Perspectives to publish regular, upbuilding content. Essays, episodes, the teaching series of Frank Reed, and this summer, Anabaptist Origins: all released freely across a wide range of platforms. Our team grew to meet the production demands of the past two years, with that growth largely funded by giving raised for specific projects like Origins. That giving did what it was meant to do and has now been spent. While our monthly supporter base has grown to over 130 members, their giving does not yet cover ongoing production costs. Current supporters provide an incredibly valuable foundation, so a lack of additional donors would not stop the work, but it would slow considerably. Staying within our current base would mean scaling back hours, publishing less often, and setting the larger projects aside. You have a real say in what we can and cannot do. To sustain what we have built and carry some margin into next year, we are seeking $50,000 by the end of November. Thanks to generous donors, the first $12,000 of this will be matched dollar for dollar. If this work matters to you and you want to keep it going, you can give at anabaptistperspectives.org/keep (or by check to Anabaptist Perspectives, 127 County Road 616, Athens, TN 37303) P.S. If you are unable to give right now, you can still help by passing an episode along to someone who may be blessed by it.


    Doug Wilson, Neo-Christendom, and Reclaiming America: Why? - Jaran Miller Aug 27, 2026
    Show notes

    Doug Wilson and the Reformed movement around Moscow, Idaho are now mainstream news, and the pull has reached Mennonite churches. Jaran Miller, one of the founders of Anabaptist Perspectives, explores why this is happening. Who is Doug Wilson? What does he teach? Why is Reformed theology appealing to some Mennonites?

    In this episode, we also hear from other voices, including Landon Miller, who explains why he left the Mennonite church and joined Doug Wilson’s church. Titus Keufper also contributes to the conversation. Titus once debated Doug Wilson, and he explains why he believes Reformed teaching is appealing to some Anabaptists.

    I Was Raised Mennonite. By 18, I Was in Prison. - Pete Schmitt Aug 20, 2026
    Show notes

    Pete Schmitt was raised in an Old Colony Russian Mennonite community. At 16, he decided to leave the church. After getting involved in drugs and other destructive behaviors, Pete found himself in prison for accidentally taking another person’s life. All throughout this time, he was ignoring God’s attempts to get his attention. It was only after spending time in prison that Pete finally came back to Christianity and found healing for the pain and evil that had been controlling his life.

    What Did Patriotism Look Like for Mennonites in 1776? - Romaine Stauffer Aug 13, 2026
    Show notes

    What Happened to Nonresistant People During World War I? - Chester Weaver Aug 06, 2026
    Show notes

    In 1918, America joined World War I. At that time, there were not options for Mennonites that refused to fight. What happened to the thousands of Mennonite young men that were drafted into the war effort? Chester Weaver tells the stories of the persecution and threats they endured for refusing to take up the sword; two of these men became some of the last Anabaptist martyrs in America.
