These guys are no chumps! This is always so fun and insightful. Thanks for what you do.
I love this podcast. We have been listening to it while we are painting our entire school campus. Y’all have some dope swag, no cap.
Similarly to how Taylor feels about good music, I find Congregationalism to be “unintelligible noise”. So I did not wait for the 5-Star Committee to come to a decision before leaving a 5-Star review for this excellent podcast, and neither should you. If you wait for the Podcast Listening Committee to give you permission, you’ll be behind on all the good inside jokes. So just listen now. Your Elders would approve.
Church History for Chumps is a lively dive into church history, with three hosts who blend wit and wisdom like pros.

Great listen!
Highly recommend! Mostly because this quote changed my life...
