UnChurched Podcast

Nature is a cruel bitch and the boys question why God created certain things in the world. Not questioning his sovereignty but talking about the sucky parts of it. Job is a perfect example of crap and faith. And there are just certain things we will never understand.

The boys take a hard transition to prayer. Why do we bow our heads and close our eyes to pray? Daniel prayed while kneeling and got thrown into the lion’s den as a result. But is there a requirement in scripture to pray in a certain posture?

There are so many things we learn in Church culture...but how do you unlearn things that are unhealthy or not required for your relationship with God? How do you handle the culture shock of no longer going to church? Your weekends are free, but is your mind? There are things that you do in church culture that no one else does. But you don’t do those things when you are out of that setting. It’s not right or wrong, but we need to have a conversation about it.

We should question what we think we know to be right. We don’t serve tradition, we serve Christ. The other thing is to have friends that will question what you do. You need to challenge yourself and have a relationship with others that challenge you.

Sean and Michael bring you a mid week rant with a few thoughts concerning the previous episode, EP65. Sean explains some of his views about church in western American culture and why "christians" need to do their own research to discover a true relationship with Christ. Michael talks about Romas 8 and what Christ is really calling his followers to do in order to be christians.

Are pastors and "christians" living more from the teaching of the Old Testimate and Jewdain Law? Did Jesus not come to amend our inadequate ability to live by that law? Lets talk about it.

EP65: Tarnishing the Message of the Bible

Sean and Michael catch up after a couple weeks of not recording. Michael buys a new knife set and Sean wonders how quickly it will fail. Sean gets nostalgic about PB&J. Michael learns about sweat bees, and Sean gives a lesson on mosquitos and etiquette.

Sean rants about QT movies, and the conversation shifts to race and what makes people uncomfortable...flags included.

Then the boys start talking about the mass shootings over the past few weeks and the plight of mental health in the world...which leads to a discussion on the plight of Christianity in the world.

If we are the Bride of Christ, we are being a horrible representation of our relationship with Jesus. We should not tarnish the truth of the Bible for our judgments of what we think is right.

How does one change the backwards behavior? We explore the option in this episode.

Sean discovers Tom Collins...but puts his own twist on it. Call it, the “Sean’s Tom Collins”.

Then the boys discuss movies and generations. Which leads to a convo about the new 007 movie with Lashana Lynch….side bar, Sean tells a story of how he was named after Sean Connery, but everyone initially thought he was a girl. Interesting story. Then the boys get back to ragging on all the remakes of movies and how Hollywood can’t come up with any new ideas.

Sean gets nostalgic about his years living in Arkansas and the 1994 National Champion RazorBacks. Sooie Pigs! He tells stories of how he lived and traveled with his Grandpa. This leads to an interesting discussion about traveling in ministry.

Then the boys talk about a local church in Michigan that paid off almost $3 million dollars in medical debt in their community. This is what the church should be.

This episode is a little different than most. We started recording early just to capture the true conversation between us and our guest Ben Horgan and decided to keep it going.

We discuss Prime Day and Sean admits he now owns both a Google Home and the Amazon Echo. Then Ben talks about his Google Hub.

From there Sean shifts the convo to raiding Area 51. That leads to drugs and Ben sharing personal stories of his experiences and eventually his sobriety.

Somewhere along the way faith becomes a topic of conversation and then Sean mildly explores the theory of annihilation vs the weeping and gnashing of teeth and burning flames in the after life.

EP62: Perfection is a False Perception

The gang visits Garden of the Gods and Michael finally gets to meet Sasquatch. Secret time: Sean got a ticket on the way to Shawnee National Forest.

The boys go to bdubs to watch the fight with Michael’s twin, Dallas. They nerd out about beers, hunting, shaving and whiskey. Michael loved their poop sign-in book on top of the toilet, which sparks a heated debate about poop particles.

Then the boys talk about freedom to be themselves. You don’t have to fall into the mold of what other people think you should be. Be unique. Be yourself. Perfection is a false perception.

They celebrate their friendship and the freedom they have to be honest and free together.

They also discuss the importance of being free in Christ; knowing your eternal security is in Christ, not in your behavior. Get out of the box!

EP61: Michael Visits SO IL

The boys are together again for a whole weekend and things get a little cray. This podcast is just the two of them catching up and having fun. Drinks are flowing and Jello shots have been eaten, but there is a disagreement on the proper technique.

Michael is introduced to Big John and how life works in SO IL. Tractors, Corn, Soy and beans everywhere. That lead to a rant about Soy and allergies, and the reason why we no longer eat at Green Dot Stables in Detroit.

Sean misses Detroit and the boys discuss changes happening in the city. They were both quite passionate about Detroit, so it dominated most of the conversation.

Then Sean shares his secret to making strong Jello shots and what they like to drink in Summer time. The Sean let’s one rip and swears there is no smell.

Michael shares stories about his parents childhood drinking. His dad is sober and the funniest man alive. Sean executes a google search and the boys suggest it is a better test for sobriety than saying the alphabet backwards.

SO IL has the country’s most empty Walmart. Michael meets a buff crossfit girl, and she makes him wanna work out. So he decides to go running with Brooklyn in the morning. But, secret time, he doesn’t wake up. Too many jello shots is the excuse. Which leads to a crazy convo about brutal nature.

Poop, farting, pregnancy and pizza. Figure that out. Secret time: Sean is a pizza connoisseur.

Genna showed up for a lil bit and helped us figure out the meaning of the number 60. It gets a little weird. So Michael starts singing.

Then the boys get into a discussion on customer service. Both have had jobs dealing with the public and talk about the woes vs what is good about it.

EP59: Confidence & Other People’s Opinions

The boys talk beer and social media followers. Trying to grow organically through likes and shares. So, we shamelessly ask for help.

Sean encourages Michael to do ASMR. It’s kinda weird, but there apparently is an audience for it. Maybe there is a chance to do something different.

Then the boys talk about the demons in the computers. For some reason, two weeks in a row, two episodes posted at the same time.

The boys eventually get into a deep conversation about the affirmation of people and church and relying on the affirmation of Jesus. We should tell the truth no matter who approves or if you get a pat on the back.

No one should decide how you behave in your relationship with God. Be confident in it, and don’t let anyone tell you how to Love.

Church is not the building, it’s the people. Screw the building, we’re the UnChurched!
