87 - Bi May 15, 2017

Show notes

Natalie Pagan shares her story of being a Christian — somewhat of a conservative one at that — and bisexual. She’s chosen to be "married heterosexually" and is committed to her husband; so obviously, there’s many questions to explore. And we did just that. Does she ever long to be with women? What's her opinion on the origins of her bisexuality? Will she fellowship with Christians who aren’t LGBTQ affirming? And much more! Find her on instagram @Natpag16pt2

86 - Why Do You Still Believe? (w/ Ryan Amick) May 07, 2017

Show notes

We kick off a new mini-series that we’ll intermittently revisit over the years. We know of and have heard so many stories of people losing their faith, but what about those who still believe after decades? Experiencing seasons of doubt and unbelief is quite common, but afterwards, why do some come out on the other end still believing, while many do not? Introducing Christians from all walks of life, all angles of faith and one unique relationship with who they still, after all these years, consider “God” and “savior.” Ryan Amick is first in line. new series theme music by Andy Othling of http://www.lowercasenoises.com/

85 - Abusive Church Cultures and Why People Buy In Apr 30, 2017

Show notes

Our regular, Chip Judd, stops in to discuss abusive church cultures, why people engage in them and how pastors get caught up being enamored by their own power. After listening to one of the “Mars Hill” interviews, he has some reflections and interesting thoughts for people that may still be engaged in those cultures.

Country Boy, Ryan Amick, is back for a visit as well. Other topics in this episode include whether our pets will be in heaven, should all Christians be hopeful universalists, is the church is too hard on divorce and if the concept of permissible- will conveniently gets God off the hook.

83 - Christians With a (Not So) Christian Perspective of Hard Drugs Apr 17, 2017

Show notes

From the Church and Other Drugs Podcast, these guys almost lost their lives to chasing pleasure found in illegal drug use. Mind-blowing stories of what it’s like to trip on drugs, these guys are convinced that during various drug trips, their eyes were opened to the spiritual realm. Do any highs feel like a super long orgasm? Is there such thing as healthy recreational use of cocaine in moderation? Because our brains have been made with the capacity for such pleasure, do you think we’ll tap into this in heaven? You think Jesus would have smoked weed?Find their podcast at: https://www.facebook.com/churchandotherdrugs/

82 - Southern Baptist to Beach Music Guru (Jason Brewer of the band, Explorers Club) Apr 10, 2017

Show notes

Joey’s friend, Jason Brewer, comes on to discuss with him and Jared his music career with the Explorers Club, how his faith plays into day to day interactions on the road and with people in the music industry, and what it was like working with Joey and Toby at Seacoast Church (seacoast.org) The three have some fun reminiscing the old-school Christian bands of the 90s and make some “professional” assessments of NBA players. Maybe the best part of this episode is getting to hear some clips from the most recent Explorers Club album, “Together.” It’s seriously a must listen. Oh and Jason Brewer might be in the top 500 best guitarists of all time. http://www.theexplorersclub.com/

81 - Mars Hill Church Speaks (w/ Trisha Wilkerson) Apr 02, 2017

Show notes

Tricia speaks as a woman and Pastor’s wife at Mars Hill. Mark Driscoll’s power and confidence drew her in, motivating her to give him the benefit of the doubt for years as she “managed Driscoll secrets,” given her close relationship with Grace Driscoll (Mark’s wife). On the podcast, she gives her best shot at assessing what’s going on cognitively in Mark Driscoll’s head. Now, years later, she misses her dear friend, Grace, desperately desires reconciliation with the Driscoll family, has both fond memories and dark reflections on being a part of the community and ministry at Mars Hill Church and has moved on as a stronger woman, helping others to do the same.To learn more about what Tricia (and husband, Mike) are up to, visit:https://redemptiongroups.com/There’s also a podcast!https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/redemption-walk/id1220060117?mt=2

79 - Stress, Burn Out and Addicted to Sunday Mornings (w/ Chip Judd) Mar 26, 2017

Show notes

Pastor Chip Judd comes on the show to talk about this concept a lot of ministry workers call “burn out.” Some pastors even blame their affairs on it. Is it a thing? I make no apologies for this episode being a “help episode,” potentially paving a way to better mental health. Concepts such as “self care isn’t selfish,” “thought awareness training,” and “stress being a habit” are discussed and there is an opportunity to take on and learn more about these practices at a deeper level by going to:www.Juddboundaries.com
