Charlie Robison’s “The Preacher” tells the story of a man who thinks his sins were buried with the preacher who knew them. It’s funny—until it ain’t. In this episode, Pastor Jim takes us line by line through this darkly comic, theologically misguided anthem to reveal the deeper ache beneath the swagger: a desperate hope for absolution through secrecy instead of grace.

But the gospel doesn’t come by grave. It comes by cross. And this episode gently untangles bad theology born in the soil of real pain—offering not judgment, but a better story.

This ain’t your usual altar call. It’s a mirror. A warning. A whispered invitation to the ones who thought they got away with it—and still feel the guilt.
