John Mark McMillan and Joey Svendsen enjoy their time with Pastor and Author Brian Zahnd, asking him a little about everything. What does Brian Zahnd think of the POTUS and if asked, would Brian serve on his spiritual advisement board? Brian Zahnd believes strongly in the church. He points out the problems with both the Christian right and left, highlighting how Jesus wouldn’t serve either of their agendas; because frankly, He has his own. The church is a part of the world that's “already changed by Christ.” Until we let this sink in, Zahnd concludes that Christians will continue to seek hope in what their political party can accomplish, these accomplishments having nothing to do with the more important Kingdom work we are to value above all. 

Brian and John Mark have an interesting take on why many artists are disinterested in politics. And of course, we get into some theology: atonement theories, Christian universalism, the gospel in its fullness.

In this episode 1 of “My Depressive Episode: The Five Month Journey,” Pricilla and I give you a snapshot of the depths of pain we experienced and discuss how we are forever changed by this journey. We also share with you the purpose for putting these episodes together. Our friend Ryan Amick comes on to share the story of him and a mutual friend, Ted Demas, conspiring with Pricilla to get Joey out of the house for some BBQ and how that excursion quickly went to hell. 

Series Description: This time a year ago (Oct 2019), I was in the mental hospital for a week stay. This move was the product of having no relief from depression and anxiety that progressively worsened through the months. Pricilla and I are going to tell our story over the course of many episodes that will also include the perspectives of friends and family who walked through this hell alongside us. We feel compelled to share the rawness of our experiences as a potential offering of hope to others who suffer with mental illness. We will also do any and everything we can to destigmatize the painful path that many are forced to walk on, in struggling with mental illness. 

NEXT EPISODE in this series: Oct 21st (Wed), “To See a Son Suffer” (with Virgil Svendsen).

Matt Pryor, Chris Simpson and Joe Guevara from the aforementioned bands discuss the late nineties Emo music scene. Enjoy tons of music clips from various bands as these three icons of the scene discuss the old days of touring and why they're glad the internet craze of streaming music hadn't started yet. We discuss the terminology “emo” and how they felt about it, reflecting also on bands like Fall Out Boy, who blew up and were classified as the same genre. How did these guys feel about their buddies in Jimmy Eat World going “BIG TIME?” What’s their current music projects? Time to reminisce on the glory days of music that created a community of listeners worldwide who breathed and bled this music. 

Go to @pwnapod on Instagram and tell us your favorite band from that scene.

Preview of upcoming episodes at the beginning of this show. (REBOOT) - This episode aired 2 years ago, I often refer to it as my favorite episode, one that represents perfectly what this podcast is all about and why I'm motivated to continue making episodes. Art Rash discusses the loss of his son a couple of years ago. Growing up in his Pentecostal faith resulted in his belief of universal protection and continual favor for him and God’s other kids. Standing on God’s promises guaranteed his provision and rescue to those who believe. But what does one’s faith in God’s provision mean, when He doesn’t provide nor rescue?

Our guest today highlights the monumental changes the church undergoes every 500 years, and guess what, folks? It’s that time. Sarah Bessey is a best-selling author. She co-created and co-leads the conference and community of Evolving Faith and also is President of the Board for Heartline Ministries in Haiti. Sarah gives Joey, "guest co-host" Trisha Wilkerson, and all of our listeners reason to have great hope and joy during seasons of monumental shifts in our faith. We discuss the gift of ditching conservative and progressive fundamental Christianity for more important things like love, grace and kindness. She gives some guidance for parents who are raising kids while deconstructing, highlights the need for borrowing hope from others, and discusses another way of viewing the term “born again.” If you are going through spiritual deconstruction and maybe experiencing discomfort (or even fear) along the way, you are in for a treat.

So is there sexual activity in heaven? We hear from lots of contributors on this one. In the beginning all things were good. Food, work, companionship, all of creation, perfect connection with God, perfect beauty and I presume, perfect sex. Things got screwed up along the way, ruining everything; and most Christians believe Jesus will redeem “all things," enjoying them forever in a new, perfect world. Everything redeemed. Except sex. Hmmm. The only thing "off the table" is sex? That’s odd, right? It’s at least worth a discussion. 

Regulars Ellen Mauro and Pastor Chip Judd, a couple of priests (Fr. Wesley Walker and Fr. Chris Foley), Craig Gross, Preston Sprinkle, and more. Even Joey’s wife, Pricilla, doesn’t get off the hook on this one. Or should we say, since Joey had to talk about his proposal of sex in heaven with multiple partners to Pricilla, JOEY doesn't get off the hook.

We've heard the stories, we've seen the signs, our jaws have dropped, our stomachs have turned. Why do they do what they do? How do they reconcile their actions with the teachings of Jesus? How do they claim to practice love? Jack Hoey III and Joey talk to one of the leaders of Westboro Baptist, Tim Phelps.

What does that terminology even mean anymore? Is it a label we should dispose of because of the reputation and image it symbolizes? Does it even matter? Shane gives us his take, including why he's not on board with the "ex-vangelical" posture or #emptythepews sorts of movements. 

John Mark McMillan, Ellen Mauro, and I talk about cancelling people and Derek Minor drops in to share a few minutes of wisdom about viewing haters through eyes of empathy.
