“Love is love.”

That’s what culture says, but is it true?

In this episode of The Bad Christian Podcast, host Nathan McCoy tackles one of the most popular and dangerous lies of our generation. We compare what culture says about love with what God says in Scripture.

Using 1 Corinthians 13, 1 John 4, and 1 Peter 4, we uncover the truth:
Love isn’t a feeling.
Love isn’t affirmation.
Love isn’t self-centered.

Real love is rooted in truth, anchored in sacrifice, and defined by God. Not us.

In this episode of The Bad Christian Podcast, we dive deep into one of the biggest spiritual trends of our time: deconstruction.

Why are so many believers walking away from the faith? Is deconstruction always bad; or can it be good if done biblically? Using a Jenga tower analogy, I break down:

• Why people deconstruct (moral, emotional, intellectual doubts)
• The dangers of deconstructing without rebuilding
• How trauma, distraction, and false teaching fuel doubt
• How to reconstruct your faith the right way: on Christ, not culture

If your faith feels shaky, or if you’re watching others fall away, this episode is for you.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Bad Christian Podcast, a show for believers who are tired of watered-down, feel-good faith and want the unfiltered truth of the Gospel.

In this debut episode, I (Nate McCoy) share the heart behind the podcast:

• Why the world actually does need another Christian podcast
• My personal journey of walking away from faith, and being pursued by grace
• Why we’re calling this The Bad Christian Podcast (and what that means)
• The power of Romans 12:2 and our mission to live transformed, not conformed

We’re not here to tick boxes or play church games. We’re here to confront lies, speak truth, and encourage believers to stand boldly in a world that calls conviction “intolerance.”

This is Unfiltered Christianity in a Filtered World.
Let’s go.
