Just finished desert Island books episode. Noticed you guys took a shot at me at the end and am honored.
Funny thing about my first review of the show is that you read a review from Cheech and Chong Church. I thought that was a hilarious handle. So I went home that night to write a review and found out that Cheech and Chong Church was me. So you’re right Jared,I am forgetful 🤣 Love the show guys.
I set my alarm for Wednesdays to listen to the latest FTC podcast. Jared and Ronni are fantastic at facilitating approachable and theologically rich conversations that are truly beneficial “for the Church.” I’ve been listening as a free-loader for a while, but I have rated this 5 stars on Spotify and now Apple Podcasts as well. Thanks for the great content!
Hey I love you guys. You keep me laughing and humble at the same time

I really enjoyed this podcast! It’s helping me form my theology based on what the Bible says. Dr. Wilson and Dr. Kurtz. Have very helpful takes on current issues and life in the local church. This will impact you and it will grow your faith.

This show centers on thoughtful, gospel-centered discussions about church life, pastoral ministry, and practical theology. Episodes frequently tackle sermon strategy (expository preaching, Bible engagement), pastoral care, and how to navigate modern church realities—from church discipline and repentance to deconstruction and ministry in a changing world. Across conversations, the hosts blend pastoral warmth with scholarly insight, peppering discussions with real-world anecdotes, book recommendations, and a light, humorous banter that keeps dense topics approachable. A recurring strength is translating theory into actionable guidance for pastors, church leaders, and engaged laypeople, while maintaining a clear biblical-theological spine.
