140. Building a Home for 15 Million Spiritual Exiles (ft. Heather Cronk) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We're excited to announce a brand new group for people who found themselves no longer welcome in church! Heather Cronk joins us to talk about Project 21:12, her effort to organize and mobilize exvangelicals to tell their stories and reshape the culture that shaped them. Fifteen million Americans gave everything to the evangelical cause, only to find the doors closed the moment they started asking questions. They deserve better. You deserve better. Our conversation covers the big targets like Chr
139. Rants with Colin 2: Rant Harder (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wrong church, wrong school, same Colin and Stephanie! This week's targets include: * Bible colleges that teach information 200 years out of date * Parents who ban Disney movies because they don't understand how character growth works * Fundamentalists who think faith needs a label to be real * People who rebound date churches * Pastors who demand you pray for them but really mean "Pay no attention to that abuse behind the curtain" But it's not all raging against the religious machine.

138. Jesus, Take the Reel: How Films Shape the Jesus in Our Heads (ft. Jeannine Brown and John Dunne) (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Brown and John Anthony Dunne, authors of The Greatest Story Ever Retold ! Their book presents a fascinating history of Jesus on film, but it also puts us in the hot seat. They explore how our expectations of what a faithfu
137. Colonizing Christianity into a Whiteness Gospel (ft. Danny Bryant) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the gospel you were taught was never meant to benefit everyone? This week, Fr. Danny Bryant takes on the “whiteness gospel”—the ways Christianity can baptize privilege, colonialism, shame, nationalism, and the preservation of power while still insisting it is preaching the same good news as Jesus. We talk about: * When patriotism gets twisted into nationalism * Why Calvinism is really just spiritual sadism * How colonialism is still alive and well in evangelical churches * What dangers e
136. There Are No Atheists in Mosh Pits (ft. Josh Patterson) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When church couldn't hold my pain, metal did. What happens when the music you were told was dangerous becomes the very thing that keeps you alive? This week, Josh Patterson joins us to talk about metal music, faith, deconstruction, identity, anger, lament, and the strange ways a song can sometimes say what a sermon never could. We explore why metal often gets treated as spiritually dangerous, what people are really afraid of when they call it evil, and how a genre built around screaming into the
