Then God Moved

Does God still give people personal revelations? Can we actually trust a prophetic word? In this episode, science fiction filmmaker Brock Heasley RETURNS to Then God Moved to recount his decision to hold onto God’s promises, despite the enemy’s many lies. As you’ll hear, Brock’s faithfulness has been majorly rewarded. Not only is his film (which was once seemingly on the brink of failure) now in theaters, but it ultimately gained the one and only Dallas Jenkins, creator/director of The Chosen, as Executive Producer. Brock and I also discuss Satan's voice, the connection between spiritual oppression and mental illness, the social and spiritual difficulties of creating subversive Christian content, and the worthwhile pain of becoming holy.

Be sure to hear Brock’s 2021 appearance on the show: “Filmmaker Brock Heasley on Forgiving His Father’s Killers”

I sit down with my friend C.J. Caudle to discuss the tension between sin, free will, and divine providence. We discuss C.J.'s childhood trauma and resulting avoidant and self-isolating tendencies, the journey from baby-Christianity to mature godliness, and the radical power of forgiveness.

What is the Christlike response to the Israel and Palestine conflict – and why are so many Christians getting it wrong? To investigate this, I pick the brain of pastor, theologian, homiletics professor, and longtime missionary Alex Awad. 

Born in East Jerusalem in 1946, Professor Awad was two years old when the state of Israel arose. That same year, his father was shot dead by Israeli forces; soon after, his surviving family joined the many Palestinian refugees expelled from their homes for Israeli gain. But despite the immensity of historical and continual Palestinian suffering, Professor Awad harbors no bitterness toward the Israeli people. As you’ll hear, he merely carries a desire to correct the many theological lies that underlie the American church’s blind support of Israel, as well as a God-given hope for peace and reconciliation.

Professor Awad and I address common misconceptions about Israel/Palestine history, dispensationalism and other pro-Israel interpretations of end times prophecy, the problem with replacement theology, and the breakthroughs made possible when we embrace the compassionate nonviolence of our Lord Jesus Christ.

On October 25, 1985, 24-year-old Derrick Jamison was sentenced to death for a murder he didn't commit. Despite a wealth of evidence pointing to his innocence, Derrick sat on Ohio's death row for 20 years...that is, 20 years TO THE DATE. On October 25, 2005, Derrick walked off of death row a free man. And as he shares with me, this freedom was not only physical – it was ultimately and supremely spiritual.

After years of suffering abuse at the hands of her father, Professor Nancy Pearcey was a self-described hater of men. But through a series of divine appointments both with devout Christians and God Himself, she miraculously (and perhaps even controversially) exchanged her hate towards men for compassion, care, and concern. A renowned theologian, Professor Pearcey is now a prolific author of books on the pitfalls of cultural Christianity and its submission to secularism, especially as it relates to gender, sex, and relationships. In this episode, she and and I unpack parenthood, hook up culture, the transgender debate, and...Andrew Tate?!

In this episode, my friend Jasmine Harris joins me for an in-person recording in my home studio! Warning: this is possibly my goofiest episode yet. That said, we touched on some heavy topics (content warning): childhood sexual abuse, suicidal ideation, daddy issues, sleep paralysis, generational inequities, self-sabotage, and perhaps most importantly, why we should not delay our obedience.

In this episode, my friend Haley opens up about her lifelong struggle with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), as well as the shame and secrecy that kept her bound for so long. We also discuss the church's hesitancy to address mental health, the tension of both pursuing freedom while acknowledging one’s current struggle, and the question of whether we ought to claim mental health issues as part of our identity.

Bestselling author and professional funny guy Harrison Scott Key discusses what earthly accomplishments deliver (and what they don’t). He also picks apart the complexities of generational curses AND generational wealth, as well as what the Book of Proverbs has to say about the call to stay married. This is a very funny episode, but it’s also chockfull of wisdom and biblical encouragement.

If you enjoy Harrison’s storytelling, you’ll want to check out his books – including his forthcoming title, How to Stay Married!
