Does a Loving God Really Send People to Hell Forever? | Episode 28 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This might be the most important podcast episode we've ever done and you're going to want to share it with your friends and family. In this episode we take the historic Christian position that hell is real, conscious, and everlasting, and we work to separate that doctrine from four centuries of accumulated cartoon. Pastors Jason Parrish, Josh Bingle, and Howie Smith are joined by John Rowa to walk through the question "Why does God send people to hell?" And then answer that the question might be
Demons Are Real, But Almost Nothing You Know About Them Is From the Bible | Episode 27 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The horns and pitchfork came from a Greek goat god and a 17th century poem. The possession you picture came from a 1973 horror movie. The portals you were warned about came from a con man and a Parker Brothers board game. Strip all of that away and what's left is a text that says less than you expected and more than you were ready for. Pastor Jason Parrish, Pastor Howie Smith, Pastor Josh Bingle, and John Rowa work through what Scripture actually claims demons can and cannot do, why we read abou
Forgiving Someone Who Doesn’t Deserve It | Episode 26 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Forgiveness is by definition undeserved. If someone deserved it, releasing them would be justice, not mercy. So the real question was never "do they deserve it." It's whether you're required to absorb the cost of what they did to you. In episode 26 of The Analog Gospel, Pastor Jason Parrish, Pastor Howie Smith, and John Rowa work through what forgiveness actually is and what it absolutely is not. The conditional versus unconditional debate. Why "forgive and forget" is a misnomer that perpetrator
Can prayer change God’s mind? | Episode 25 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Scripture says God does not change. Scripture also says God relented, at least a dozen times, and usually because somebody asked him to. So either prayer moves God, which means God can be talked into things, or prayer does not move God, which means every command to pray is theater. The historic Christian answer refuses both. In this episode, Pastor Jason Parrish, Pastor Howie Smith, and John Rowa work through Exodus 32, James 5, Luke 18, and Gethsemane to ask what prayer actually does. Is it a c
Popular Bible Verses You're Reading Wrong | Episode 24 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everybody has a favorite Bible verse. Most of us have never read the verse above it. In Episode 24, Pastors Jason and Erica Parrish join John Rowa as they work through three of the most misused passages in the Bible and the reading mistake behind all of them: confusing what Scripture describes with what Scripture commands. Acts 2 doesn't establish socialism. Jeremiah 29:11 wasn't written to you. And Paul wasn't thinking about your career when he said he could do all things. But this isn't a take
