Holy Heretics: Losing Religion and Finding Jesus

The Sophia Society

Holy Heretics seeks to foster honest conversations about the state of religion in the 21st century. We interview experts, spiritual seekers, scholars, and activists in our quest to examine just exactly how modern-day Christianity lost the Way of Jesus while also discovering how it can be regained through subversive thought and action.

  • Disappointing

    The constant lumping of all evangelicals into one group and bashing them collectively comes across as obsessive and terribly unkind. I could not stomach the bigotry they have toward this one group. I’m drawn toward deconstructing my own faith and finding a more loving and kind approach to faith. I did not find that here.

  • Absolutely fantastic podcast for those looking at Christianity with a critical lens

    I found this podcast through Twitter and from the very first episode I was all in. The hosts are fantastically open, honest and raw on their talking, and the quality of the guests is amazing. Top-notch conversations that have me pausing in every episode just to sit and take in what’s being said. Highly highly recommend if you’re willing to look at faith, Jesus, and Christianity with a critical lens and desire to think about the hard questions.

  • Uplifting!

    I really appreciate that your focus, even during deconstruction, has remained on how to be Jesus-followers, and that your choice of guests supports that focus.
