Biblical Immigration | Ep. 22

Sacred Courage: Rev. Jakob Hero-Shaw on Coming Out Twice | TDOV Special

“People can’t change.” We’ve heard that before. Then we talked with Rev. Jakob Hero-Shaw. Transgender Day of Visibility is today, a reminder that behind every headline is a real person, living a real story. To our transgender and gender nonconforming listeners: we see you. We honor your stories. And we are grateful for the ways your lives expand our understanding of love.

Ruth Did WHAT?! The Bible’s Strangest Love Story Explained | Ep. 23

Did Ruth sleep with Boaz? In four chapters you get famine, immigration, two widows trying to survive, a suspiciously nice farmer named Boaz, and a midnight scene where Ruth sneaks onto a threshing floor and uncovers his feet. Starring “Ruth the Moabite" and how this foreign widow ends up becoming an ancestor of King David… and eventually Jesus! It raises a lot of questions. Some of them are… awkward.

Biblical Immigration | Ep. 22

The Pope Said One Thing. Mike Johnson Said the Opposite. Both Used the Bible. So who’s right? Immigration has become more than a political debate. It is now a theological collision. Pope Leo XIV and U.S. Catholic bishops warned against mass deportation. Speaker Mike Johnson pointed to Romans 13 and the role of government authority. Both claim Scripture supports their position. In this episode, we examine what the Bible actually says about immigration, governing authorities, and welcoming the stranger, and why Christians themselves cannot agree. No slogans. No easy answers. Just the tension between faith, power, and what following Jesus means right now. Religious Rejects is a podcast exploring faith, doubt, and the questions many Christians are afraid to ask.

Biblical Divorce | Ep. 21

“God hates divorce." Cool... But does He? This week on Religious Rejects, we crack open the Bible and look at what it actually says about divorce. Spoiler: it involves property, honor, certificates, and a lot of men making decisions about women’s lives. Christine unpacks what divorce meant in her family (and what it didn’t). Alycia raises a question about why the single guys wrote the handbook. So is divorce always a sin? Or is that just church branding? We’re not here to wreck faith. We’re here to ask better questions.

Biblical Marriage | Ep. 20

Alycia and Christine crash into 2026 with “Biblical Marriage” and it is not what your youth pastor warned you about. Property trades. “Taking” wives. Being a spinster at age 24. You are not ready for biblical marriage. Or are you?
