REVERENT and REBELLIOUS Ep. #129 - CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM!

When the Church Lost the Plot — Episode 5: Christian Nationalism. Jesus refused every kingdom in the world. Every single time. Christian Nationalism is the church accepting what He declined — and calling it faithfulness. We trace the history, name the errors, follow the cost, and recover the Kingdom that doesn't depend on America. Spoiler: it never did.

REVERENT and REBELLIOUS Ep. #128 - PROSPERITY GOSPEL

"When the Church Lost the Plot — Episode 4: The Prosperity Gospel. The Prosperity Gospel has an answer for everything Jesus said about money. It just ignores all of it. We trace the theology, follow the money, name the human cost — and recover the genuine abundance Jesus actually promised. Spoiler: it's better than a private jet."

REVERENT and REBELLIOUS Ep. #127 - THE INQUISITION

When the Church Lost the Plot — Episode 3: The Inquisition. They called burning people alive an act of faith. They tortured people for doubting and called it protecting the truth. And somehow they never noticed that Jesus was tried by the same system — that He was the one on the receiving end of the midnight arrest, the coerced confession, the predetermined verdict. The Inquisition lasted 650 years. The Gospel has lasted 2,000. God's word is not chained.

REVERENT and REBELLIOUS Ep. #126 - SLAVERY AND THE BIBLE!

Episode 2 of When the Church Lost the Plot is here — and this one hits! How did Bible-believing Christians use Scripture to defend slavery? What did they get so wrong? After all, isn't slavery everywhere in the Bible? Today, we dig into a lot more than history. We dig into the Curse of Ham, the household codes, Paul's letter to Philemon, and the hermeneutic of convenience that made it all possible. We also look at a group of resistors who read the same Bible, but found a completely different God in its pages. How did this happen? Why was it justified? How can the Church move to ensure it never happens again? Join us for a powerful conversation!

REVERENT and REBELLIOUS Ep. #125 - WERE THE CRUSADES ACTUALLY A GOOD THING?

When the Church Lost the Plot — Episode 1: The Crusades. Good intentions. Bad theology. Unchecked power. Three ingredients that turned a call to protect Christian pilgrims into two centuries of holy violence. We trace the honest history, name the theological errors, follow the human cost, and ask the question every generation of Christians needs to ask: Does this look like Jesus?
