Love this podcast!
This show exposes western militaristic Christianity as cowardly and weak, contributing to the cycles of violence that humans have always followed. We need to wake up and follow Jesus thought it costs us something. No more easy scapegoating, no more nationalism, no more tribalism.
Have a listen to these discussions that are deep and rich. They cover scripture, theology, history, philosophy, doctrines of the faith, the Patristics, mission, and ecumenism. Sometimes all in one episode.
This is a radical and refreshing Christian theology podcast. Dr. Paul Axton and friends host conversations ranging from theology, philosophy, ethics, politics, economics, movies, to discussing thinkers as diverse as David Bentley Hart and Slavoj Žižek, and all the way to UFOs, UAPs, and ufology from a radically Christian perspective. A+

A spiritually minded show that blends theology, philosophy, and ethics to explore peace, nonviolence, and Christian thought. Episodes frequently tackle topics like Metaxology, agape, and social justice, often through conversations with scholars and activists, plus sermons that reinterpret biblical stories through continental philosophy. Noteworthy is the recurring engagement with prominent thinkers (Hegel, Žižek, Desmond) and practical peacebuilding themes, making it appealing to listeners who enjoy deep, interdisciplinary faith discussions and applications to current social issues.
