Well, it happened again. Another Christian musician is claiming that they don’t believe in God anymore. And as usual, the response from the Christian community is very negative. Instead of hoping for the best for Jon Steingard (lead singer of Hawk Nelson), some fans are turning their backs on the band and getting rid of all their music. We’ll get into why we think this is a common occurrence these days, try to dissect his decision to turn away from Christianity, and our thoughts on obligations in the faith. Also, YOU CAN GO TO CONCERTS AGAIN...if you have a fancy hazmat suit. Bring on the summer festivals!! **we do not own any of the music used in this episode and no copyright infringement is intended**

Churches are popping up left and right these days. Megachurches are slowly on the rise as well. After a listener sent in a video of a YouTuber visiting a megachurch with cultish vibes, she asked if churches have the right idea in striving to become a megachurch. We answered her by making a whole episode out of it. 😀 We’re weighing out the pros and cons of the modern day megachurch and attempt to break down how we really feel about them. **we do not own any of the music used in this episode and no copyright infringement is intended**

In case you missed it, there was a football game last weekend. Jennifer Lopez and Shakira were the performers for the halftime show. During the halftime show, they did what any singer/dancer would do and sang/danced. But the response from the Christian community was, of course, quite negative. Not everyone thought it was too risqué though. In fact, some praised it for multiple reasons. But what does the Bible really say about modesty? This leads us to a deep discussion about “modesty culture” and where everyone’s getting it wrong. **we do not own the music used in this episode and no copyright infringement is intended**

It didn’t take very long for Bethel Church in Redding, CA to make its way back into our show. This time, they’re drawing some attention to themselves after praying for God to raise a little girl from the dead. After she didn’t wake up, the whole ordeal was swept under the rug, but we felt like this was something that needs to be discussed. Is it a lack of faith on our side? Or are they just a little “Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs?” Also, we have a special message from our friend Michael Pulser (Personal Upgrade Podcast) regarding the Australian bushfires. **we do not own the music used in this episode and no copyright infringement is intended**

We’re back after a little bit of a break and much contemplation about the heaviest topic we’ve ever covered: will committing suicide send you to hell? WOAH. We took some extra time to research suicide in the Bible, viewpoints from different religions, and more importantly, would it prevent you from getting into heaven? Also in this episode: Celine Dion’s satanic clothing line for kids and our undying love for The Greatest Showman. 🎩 **we do not own any of the music used in this episode and no copyright infringement is intended**

Happy Thanksgiving! We figured you might need a little something to ponder on while the holiday break closes out. With all the boycotting threats and misconstrued information floating around, we really wanted to explain what’s going on with Chick-fil-A, not just what you’ve heard Greg Locke ramble about. **we do not own any of the music used in this episode and no copyright infringement is intended**

If you’re still scratching your head trying to think of who Keith Getty is, don’t worry, so are we. He’s a Christian music artist himself, but Getty believes that we need to get back to the good ol’ days of writing hymns because modern worship and contemporary Christian music is “utterly dangerous” and “de-Christianizing God’s people.” Could Keith Getty just be super jealous of the successful careers of those like Hillsong United or even Kanye West? Take a listen and let us know what you think! **we do not own the music used in this episode and no copyright infringement is intended**

To continue our Halloween series for this month, we revamped our Hell House episode from last year. It’s no surprise that many churches do not support Halloween or haunted houses. Instead, they came up with a way to draw in the secular crowd by creating “Hell Houses” in order to scare people into salvation. These houses use dramas with scenes of mass shootings, abortions, and a visit to Hell in hopes of converting people to Christianity. Some call it a ministry, others call it a joke. Take a listen and decide for yourself! **we do not own the music used in this episode and no copyright infringement is intended**

There’s two groups of people that we can thank for the Halloween that we know and love today: the Irish and Christians. That’s right. Christians. But wait a second? Aren’t most Christians detested by the celebration of this pagan holiday? Well friends, let us explain to you how we can actually thank the Christian church for preserving All Hallows’ Eve. On this episode, we’ll learn about Samhain, Halloween symbolism origins, where the traditions started, and old myths that have been debunked.
