Why do Christians - myself included - have such a hard time acting like Jesus sometimes? This episode isn’t about ranting. It’s about wrestling honestly with how disconnected our faith can become from real life. We talk Gospel, hypocrisy, and what happens when Christianity turns into a bubble instead of a bridge.This isn’t a takedown. It’s a challenge.Less performance. More presence.Less noise. More Jesus.If you’ve ever felt like faith got awkward, weird, inauthentic, or too churchy - this one's for you.

Let’s talk about it — the good, the bad, and the uncomfortable truth about deconstructing your faith. In this episode, I get into what deconstruction is (and isn’t), why it matters, and how it can either wreck your faith or refine it — depending on what you’re actually chasing.

If you’re questioning what you believe, dealing with church hurt, or wondering how to stay rooted in Jesus without the baggage of bad religion — this one’s for you.

In this episode of The Bad Pastor, we pull back the curtain on the fear behind the pulpit — the real reasons certain topics rarely make it into a Sunday sermon. From the pressure to keep people happy, to the risk of disrupting operations, to the fear of empty seats, we explore how hard truth gets avoided in the name of survival.We’re not here to throw stones at pastors. We’re here to confront the culture that makes bold preaching almost impossible — and what it’s costing the church.

In this kickoff episode of The Bad Pastor Podcast, I’m answering the question I’ve been asked more times than I can count: Why did you leave full-time ministry?

This isn’t a deconstruction story or a resignation rant. It’s a conversation about calling, identity, and what happens when the role you were praised for starts to feel more like a costume than a calling.

We’ll unpack the difference between pastoring people and working for a church, the pressure to perform in ministry culture, and why stepping away wasn’t walking away — it was moving forward.

If you’ve ever questioned where you fit in the church machine, or felt like your soul didn’t match the title you carried… this one’s for you.
