  • Look forward to this podcast every week!

    The theme music “Citizens” by John Guerra is so lovely. I look forward to this podcast every single week. My favorite episodes are when Beth Moore or Lecrae Moore are interviewed .

  • More like Tony!

    Loved your discussion with Tony Hale. Great questions and lots for me to consider in regard to how to talk and listen when discussing faith journeys. Keep inviting these type of guests! Would love to hear from Leigh-Allyn Baker, Patricia Heaton, others…

  • Football

    Loved today’s interview with Chuck Klosterman about football in our culture. There is definitely more to it than I had considered.

    Regarding the show’s current theme music, adopting it (with the artist’s permission) was a great move! I love it!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Doug McKelvey on Rites of Passage and the Sacredness of Ordinary Life
Q: How did you start writing these liturgies and decide to share them with others?
McKelvey explains he began as a personal practice to structure his own life and work, then realized the format could serve others; he also narrates the serendipitous way the liturgy for beekeeping emerged after Andrew Peterson suggested adding more, which helped broaden the project into a pastoral tool for many life moments.
Can AI Really Sing a Country Song?
Q: How would you define country music, and do you like Walk My Walk?
Country music is more than sound and tropes; it's about honest emotional truth, context, and a sense of personal testimony, which makes AI-generated songs inadequate as true country despite craft and imitation.
Can AI Really Sing a Country Song?
Q: I wonder what your thoughts are on the AI generated song Walk My Walk. I couldn't hear it as a true country song, but I don't know how I personally define country.
AI-generated songs can be technically impressive, but they lack the embodied human experience that defines country music; true country comes from lived pain and personal storytelling, which AI can imitate but not authentically inhabit.
Jennie Allen on The Lie You Don't Know You Believe
Q: Do you think it's possible to rewire after this has settled in deeply, and is it ever too late?
It's presented as an ongoing process of growth; acknowledging the lie, asking for grace, and practicing truth in daily life, with encouragement that transformation is possible at any age or stage, though it may require persistent effort and community support.
Jennie Allen on The Lie You Don't Know You Believe
Q: Give me an example of what that would look like for someone.
Jennie Allen describes how a lie can start from a parent's subtle messaging and become an enduring conviction, such as thinking you are less loved, which then shapes future identity and behavior until recognized and challenged.
