  • Really Thought Provoking!

    I really enjoy listening to these Hank Unplugged podcasts. Coming from an evangelical background, I had very little knowledge or understanding of Eastern Orthodoxy until I started listening to Hank. I now find myself wanting to learn more and more about it. These podcasts have also helped me remove a lot of misconceptions I had towards Eastern Orthodoxy and Catholicism (iconography, intercessional prayer, etc.). Thanks!

  • Gentleness + respectful truth bullseye

    Hank does a remarkable job in his articulate explanations of the Bible and apologetics. He interviews interesting and informative guests who keep me hooked to the very last second. Grateful for Hank and his ministry and hope to see a continue for a long time to come.

  • Thank you for your courage

    Hank says hard and often unpopular truths. In the past he has lost large segments of his audience by affirming what he knows to be true. That shows real courage and integrity, virtues that are all too rare these days. Now he is taking on the most dangerous deception of our day: Christian Zionism. We are praying for Hank as he stands up for truth.

  • Dispys

    Episode on eschatology - Lack of research and blinded commentary without a rebuttal to premillennialism: starts with Darby?, “Not Biblical”? But more concerned with his attitude towards those who believe this-sounds like a disgraced father talking to his son.
