Across college campuses, social media platforms, and young adult communities, many are claiming that there are growing signs of renewed interest in faith among Gen Z. But is this a genuine spiritual revival, a reaction to cultural uncertainty, or something more complex?

In this episode, we explore the data behind the headlines, the experiences driving young people toward Christianity, and the questions many Gen Zers are asking about meaning, purpose, identity, and belonging. We'll examine what's fueling this trend and consider what it could mean for the future of faith in America.

Is Christianity making a comeback with the next generation—or are the details something far more nuanced and, perhaps, alarming?

It's the start of summer, and it's time to discuss the future of the podcast. What started as a simple update turned into a vibrant conversation between cohosts. If you're invested in the show, you'll want to tune into this for some updates.

What does it actually mean that God is "eternal"? The answer might completely upend everything you thought you knew.

In fact, at the Transfiguration of Jesus, something might have been revealed about God and time that completely breaks our brain. In this episode, we sit down with New Testament scholar Shane Wood to dig into what Scripture actually teaches about God's relationship to time, and the results are as surprising as they are unsettling.

Using Jonathan Lyonhart's Zeus Was an Atheist as our launching point, we unpack the question: What if the Biblical portrait of God is far more radical, more personal, and more strange than anything we imagined?

The question of drug legalization has never been more pertinent. In the USA, more and more states are legalizing the use of marijuana. Medical usages for psychedelics have also become a hot topic, thanks in no small part to some major podcast figures. But what should the Christian take on the decriminalization of drugs be? Should we maintain the status quo and resist the normalization of such substances? Or has the war on drugs actually created more harm than help?

Here to wade deep into these murky waters is Christina Dent, founder of End It For Good, an organization that seeks to help us rethink what our best approach to drugs might be.

What if reality isn’t made of isolated things—but of relationships all the way down?

In this episode, we sit down with John Milbank to explore the strange and surprisingly relevant world of Trinitarian ontology. Together, we dig into a bold idea: that being itself might be more like a living communion than a collection of separate objects.

Along the way, we tackle big questions: Why does the Trinity still matter? How does it reshape our understanding of politics and the world? And what would it mean to see reality as fundamentally relational rather than competitive?

Expect a mix of deep theology and a few moments where your brain might do a happy double-take. Whether you’re a seasoned thinker or just Trinity-curious, this conversation opens up a fresh way of seeing the world—and your place in it.

Where did we get our idea of the devil? We often imagine pitchforks and horns, but is that how the church and Scripture imagine the supposed prince of darkness? Are there ideas about the great adversary to humanity that we've forgotten? And should we recapture them? What is true and what is false about this enigmatic figure?

On this episode, we "give the devil his due" and dive into the strange and often baffling history of the concept of Satan within the church. Guiding us like Virgil through the fiery gates is Prof. Gabrielle Thomas, who is, perhaps, the world's foremost expert on the early church and its views of Lucifer.

What happens to faith if we discover we’re not alone in the universe?

In this episode, we bring together Muslim and Christian perspectives to explore one of the biggest “what if” questions of our time: the existence of extraterrestrial life. Would aliens challenge belief in God—or deepen it? How do the Muslim and Christian approach the idea of life beyond Earth? And what would it mean for humanity’s place in creation?

Through an honest and respectful conversation, we dive into theology, philosophy, and science. Whether you’re curious, skeptical, or deeply rooted in your faith, this episode invites you to think bigger about the universe—and your place in it.

Last week, we released part 1 of our debate with David Artman of the Grace Saves All podcast about universalism, the view that all will eventually be saved. This week, we dive into Scripture to ask: What does the Bible say?

Is the traditional view of Hell a myth? And does Scripture actually reveal a much more optimistic view of the future? Pull out your Bibles and get ready for some fireworks as we debate this "fiery" topic together.

Is universalism a modern innovation, or a recovery of an ancient hope? Can hell survive serious theological scrutiny? And if Christ is truly victorious, what does that mean for the destiny of all?We're joined by David Artman, host of the Grace Saves All podcast, for another debate on whether Hell is a bastion of everlasting torment or, perhaps, something different. This is only part one of the debate. Click here for early access to part two.

At the heart of the Christian faith stands a miracle: the resurrection of Christ. Yet despite the centrality of this event to the faith, many Christians have been skeptical of other miraculous claims from across the centuries. Yet history doesn't give us license to ignore such claims. In fact, accounts of saints floating through the air in front of hundreds of onlookers or bilocating to places hundreds of miles away are not infrequent and challenge many of our assumptions about the world.

And it's not just the ignorant who believe this. Carlos Eire, a Yale historian, has recently published the book They Flew, detailing these stories, and he joins us today to recount the remarkable tales of flying nuns and teleporting monks.
