Welcome back T&J fam! We are happy to be back and exited to dive into a new episode. Josh starts off with the recent discovery that you can roast people with Chat GPT. Please try this feature out and let us know how it goes for you. Marty then shares some stores from childhood. Following all that nonsense, we revisit the idea of hell and the process of reconstructing our theology over the past 18 months. We discuss lessons learned, the process of change, and where we stand today. Please reach out and let us know where you are in this process and what has helped you along the way. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J family! This week we are having a throwback episode. The series we did on hell was well received and really helped us on our theology journey. Many of you are here because of this series while many more have started listening after we went through the topic of hell. Since life has been crazy for both of us, we thought we would republish this episode for those who have never heard it or want to think back through the topic again. The idea of Christian Universalism is not prominent, so we look forward to your thoughts and opinions on the topic. Next week we will back to with our normal show. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! On this week's episode we dive into a very sensitive elephant lamp controversy. Marty's co-worker broke his heart and we want to know what our listeners think about Marty's lamp, so go check it out on Facebook or TikTok and let us know what you think. Josh and Marty then discuss Ye's recent Nazi behaviors and how these somehow tie to the president. Then, Josh discusses the power of experience and how addressing thoughts can be insufficient for lasting change. We unpack the impact of core beliefs and how it influences behaviors, and how our spiritual life is also impacted by these concepts. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! We are excited about this week's episode and welcome our new listeners. Josh start us off by discussing mysteries. If you could know the answer to one mystery, what would you choose? Then, we dive into the idea of abandonment and times it seems God removes His protection from our life and the lives of people in the Bible. Why does he do this and how can our own experiences be projected onto God? At the end of the day, we have to figure out what is going to define us. Anyway, we hope you enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! This week we have a fun show for everyone. Josh starts out by discussing his ability to impersonate the velociraptor. We then discuss Genesis 34 and how much it would have to pay to get circumcised as an adult. Although this leads us down a very unredeemable path, we somehow bring it back to the Charismatic movement. We look at its history, key figures, and criticisms. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! On today’s podcast, Josh and Marty take a deeper look into the psychological world by debating whether narcissism is healthier than learned helplessness. The two discuss environmental influences to determine self-worth and self-esteem. This leads them to tease out the concept of individuality in the realm of identity and self-belief. Or is everything we believe about ourselves determined by our relationships and environmental factors? Also, how does God influence this logic and philosophy? Listen in to find out!

Happy New Year and welcome back T&J fam! We hope everyone had a great holiday season and are ready for a great 2025. This week we get back in the swing of things with the first pod of the year. We dive into a conversation about preaching and the role of a pastor's message. Are we supposed to be encouraged, scarred, challenged, or inspired? Does the Bible even talk about preaching? We discuss these questions and more. We hope you enjoy!

Welcome to the final episode of 2024! Today we have a special interview with our new friends Katie and Daniel. Following a less than ideal ministry experience, Katie and Daniel have been working to rebuild their faith and make sense of God. In this process, Katie launched a podcast (see below) to expose the toxic cultural patterns of their last ministry. Today, Katie and Daniel join the show to discuss their relationship, experiences with YWAM, and what faith means to this at this time. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J family! We hope that you had a great Thanksgiving break and are ready for the end of the year wrap up. We get started by hearing about Marty's attempted hunting trip to Nebraska, which ended up being a 12 state site seeing adventure. Lucky for us, we also get to hear about how this reminds him of an embarrassing bathroom story from college. Josh tries to redeem the episode by discussing the highlights from the past year. We discuss spiritual insights and how much power hell seems to have in theology. What started out as a wrap up episode ends up being a pretty good discussion on its own. Enjoy the show, next week's interview, and the holiday season!

Welcome back T&J family! We have a special episode for you this week. Aaron Simmons joins us for a wonderful conversation on philosophy, faith, and "becoming a Christian". Aaron is a Professor of Philosophy at Furman University, author, musician, mountain biker, and trout fishing extraordinaire! Raised in the Pentecostal faith by parents who were professors, Aaron learned to appreciate his faith and critical thinking at an early age. This has led him down a path heavily influenced by Danish Philosopher and Theologian Soren Kierkegaard. This influence has led Aaron to have a unique approach to his faith that resonates with us in many ways. We hope you enjoy the discussion as much as we did having it! Please check out Aaron's website below for more information on him and his writings.
