November 01, 2021 Episode176: Diana Butler Bass (Instant Replay, Part 10)
In this episode we look back on my conversation with Diana Butler Bass. I had a whole list of questions I planned to ask her and ended up asking NONE of them. Instead, we went deep down the rabbit hole of "deconstruction" and "reconstruction" and I'm grateful we did because this conversation was balm for my soul. I hope it will be for you too!

October 18, 2021 Episode 173: The Very First Episode (Instant Replay, Part 8)
In this episode we look back on episode 1 of the podcast, recorded on my phone in a hotel room in Mars Hill, NC. I was attending the Wild Goose Festival and the idea for this podcast had been brewing as a result of a paper I was writing for school and ... this is where it all began. You'll hear a bit of my story, some of the backstory of the show, and some of the original vision of where I was hoping it would all go. Enjoy!

October 05, 2021 I Quit My Job To Do This
I quit my job of 11 years to do ... THIS. In full transparency, this mid-week check in is a full, 100% ask to go check out our tiers on Patreon and consider supporting the show financially. All the money we make from Patreon goes to buy groceries, gas, and all the things that come with being an adult. And so if the show has done you any good whatsoever and you feel the nudge ... please go take a look.
Thanks for listening. Thanks for sharing. Thanks for encouraging me. Thanks for YOU.
Much love.

October 04, 2021 Episode 171: In Memory of Steve Austin (Instant Replay, Part 6)
In this episode we look back on a conversation with my friend, the late Steve Austin. Steve committed suicide in the Summer of 2021 and left a gaping hole in the world. In this conversation you'll get a taste of the ray of hope he was to so many as he fought hard to destroy the stigma around mental health that the church has created.
The intro to the episode is from one of the What If Project Patreon supporters, Mike Koolen. Mike actually introduced me to Steve a while back and so his voice in this episode is a perfect fit.
