January 18 PART 2 How to Survive the Tribulation: Satirical Tips for the Left Behind from Stuart Delony
This description will be used on YouTube and all podcast platforms this episode is uploaded to.
Have you been left behind and don't know what to do? Look no further than "The Tribulation Survival Guide"--the snarkiest post-Rapture field guide you didn't know you needed until it was too late. This week we talk with Stuart Delony, the author of this serious-toned satire about the end-times, and we cover topics such as the relatively recent origins of modern apocalyptic rhetoric, the commercial and political forces who profit from misinterpreted prophecy, and why predictions about the coming end keep popping up, despite the failures of the past.
Stuart Delony is a former paster, current writer, and the voice behind the podcast/website/blog Snarky Faith. In his own words, Delony "left the pulpit to tell the truth with satire, story, and a stubborn hope for something better than the church-as-industry." His book, "The Tribulation Survival Guide: How to Stay Alive When Everything Else is Dead" (Quoir Publishing) launches this month.

January 04 Part 2 Reimagining Christianity for the Mystics on the Margins with Dr. Robert KC Forman
In this episode, Kelly talks with Dr. Robert K.C. Forman, author of “Christianity Imagined,” about how Christianity drew him in, what’s meaningful to him about Christian practice, and what many modern Christians miss about Jesus’ message. Dr. Forman shares his journey through various spiritual practices, describes the church experience that changed everything for him, and defines the distinction between the pre-Easter and post-Easter Jesus as an example for us to follow. This is an important conversation for the “mystics on the margins,” who are in touch with the spiritual, find comfort and power and prayer, but do not necessarily believe in the kind of God that churches traditionally teach about.   
Dr. Robert K.C. Forman is a prolific writer, teacher, and spiritual guide. Through his work as a university professor, ordained interfaith minister, hospital chaplain, and more, Dr. Forman has tirelessly studied the intellectual and mystical aspects of human spiritual experience. His latest book, Christianity Reimagined, offers a fresh perspective on faith, illuminating the voices of “mystics on the margins” whose insights challenge and enrich the spiritual landscape.

December 21, 2025 PART 2 Attention Outcasts! God is Calling You In: with John S. Suarez
John Suarez, author of The Outsider’s Banquet (Quoir Publishing) is a sweet, beautiful soul with a wildly creative imagination. Through his semi-autobiographical novel that walks the line between fantasy and philosophy, Suarez takes us on a dreamlike odyssey into his understanding of God’s love. We are so grateful for the chance to meet and talk with Suarez, who shares with us about his very real experiences struggling between his faith and sexuality in a strict Catholic environment, as well as his years of searching before finally realizing that the already knew God—a loving God who embraces the “outsiders.” Together we examine the transformative power of storytelling, as Suarez tells us how he realized his identity and came to understand the importance of sharing his truth with others. The Outsider’s Banquet: A Journey in Healing, Overcoming, Progressing, and Evolving, is John S. Suarez’s first book. It was just recently released by Quoir publishing, and contains a foreward by author/publisher Keith Giles. The Outsider’s Banquet is a genre-bending spiritual novel where visions slip into memory, grace crosses timelines, and transformation arrives in unexpected forms—through magic, quantum entanglement, and love that refuses to let go. Through vision quests, near-death moments, and impossible tenderness, The Outsider’s Banquet explores what happens when the rejected become the reconcilers—and the ones never invited begin setting the table.

December 07, 2025 Facing Life on Life's Terms: What Sobriety Teaches Us About Spirituality
In a candid and self-revelatory conversation, Mark and Kelly reveal their own unique stories of spiritual awakening as a result of choosing the path of sobriety. While our journeys have been different, we share our genuine experiences with gratitude, community, acceptance, balancing joy and anger, and the challenging but rewarding work of coping with a constant barrage of thoughts from our wild human minds! We reinforce the idea that sobriety doesn’t require any belief in a traditional religious view, but it can definitely be a spiritual transformation through intentionality, mindfulness, and faith. [Note: We do mention the principles of some specific popular approaches to sobriety, but we do not speak on behalf of any organization or program; the opinions and experiences we talk about here are purely our own.] *****

November 30, 2025 Love vs Judgment: What It Means to Love Unconditionally | Radical Love Live EP237
What are we talking about when we talk about Radical Love? Are we talking about the unconditional love of the Prodigal Son’s father, who rejoices to have his child back, no matter what he’s done? Or are we talking about love that condemns and restrains others’ behavior, to protect them from ultimate Divine Judgment? In this episode, we explore the ideological divide in Christianity between love and judgment, examine who is hurt by the far-reaching impact of flawed theology, and discuss how history and experience can provide important context for understanding what God wants us to do.

November 23, 2025 PART 2 Jon Carl Lewis: Masculinity Outside the "Man Box" | Radical Love Live 234
What does it mean to be a man? The eye-opening second half of this animated three-way conversation with Mark, Kelly, and our returning guest Jon Carl Lewis, talking about spirituality, sexuality, and the embodiment of masculinity—whether straight, queer, or trans. We explore the paradox of being simultaneously men of the world and “children of God,” balancing trusting God to help with our troubles and doing what we can in our power as well, and the need that even the strongest man has for community.
Jon Carl Lewis describes himself as “your average queer, liberative theologian and spiritual guide.” His work invites” individuals and communities into conversation around how integration of the spiritual and the sexual/erotic can enliven and reconcile people of faith to themselves, the sacred, their communities, and all of creation.” His Substack is called “Ramblings (of a Queer, Christian Contemplative) (queerchristianramblings.substack.com).

November 20, 2025 Jon Carl Lewis: Masculinity Outside the "Man Box"
What does it mean to be a man? This is a lively and revealing three-way conversation with Mark, Kelly, and our returning guest Jon Carl Lewis (and our first episode in a long time in which we’ve had the pleasure of a guest in-studio with us!) that spans a wide range of topics related to the spirituality and embodiment of masculinity—whether straight, queer, or trans.
Using as our jumping-off point the shared experience of being adult men facing the challenges of caring for and losing parents, the conversation then deepens into discussing the paradox of being simultaneously men of the world and “children of God,” balancing trusting God to help with our troubles and doing what we can in our power as well, and the need that even the strongest man has for community. Oh yeah, and then we start taking about sexuality as well! Listen for the first half of this candid, soul-baring conversation!
Jon Carl Lewis describes himself as “your average queer, liberative theologian and spiritual guide.” His work invites” individuals and communities into conversation around how integration of the spiritual and the sexual/erotic can enliven and reconcile people of faith to themselves, the sacred, their communities, and all of creation.” His Substack is called “Ramblings (of a Queer, Christian Contemplative) (queerchristianramblings.substack.com).
