We talk favorite television shows, the ability of film to portray the depths of the human experience as well as spiritual themes, and whether the quality of television is improving or becoming worse. Plus: when does fandom become idolatry? Layton Williams joins us to discuss!

We talk about Holy Week: what is the significance of Jesus entering Jerusalem as he did? Of his actions at the temple? Why did Jesus die and why has this event been so central to the heart of the world’s largest religion?

What would you do for a million dollars? What was Judas' motivation for selling out Jesus? We discuss money, trust, betrayal and more! Tune in for some conversation on life and faith, over a craft-brewed pint!

What role does humor play in a worship service, if any? We discuss our take, share some laughs, and discuss the fine line between serious and playful, and how laughter can make our lives better.

We talk "Holy Envy"—how we can not only learn from other faith traditions and people of no faith, but appreciate, admire, and even envy some of the beautiful traditions and practices they espouse. Also, Bryan threatens to leap off tall buildings in a single bound.

We talk about what happened in New Zealand and the intersection of Islamophobia, guns, fear, and white supremacy. We also discuss finding common ground across religious traditions, and how Christians and people of other faiths can support Muslims around the world.

Is signing the Bible appropriate? Why or why not? What makes the Bible different from other books, if anything? And if even the devil quotes the Bible, what value does quoting the Bible hold? Tune in to all this and more on Episode 123!

We discuss Lent, and how it kicks off with a gluttonous celebration right before launching into a sobering reminder of our mortality. We get into the beauty and opportunity that the season of Lent provides.

Today we'll talk about feminine aspects of God: where and how are they present in scripture, and why are they so often hidden? We'll also talk about the divine feminine as a consciousness or energy found within human beings.

We're joined by Patricia Reilly, who has been inspiring women for over 25 years. Her iconic books, poems, and trainings have traveled around the world.

On this episode we talk about sex: what messages did you receive about sex as you were growing up? How was sex talked about in your family, by adults around you, in your church? Why do churches tend to elevate 'sexual sin' above other kinds of sins? Is the term 'sexual sin' outdated? How can we do better as humans and especially in the church on this powerful yet often avoided topic of sex?
 Carissa Buursma joins us to discuss!
