  • Important messages!!

    I’m so glad to have just found you on Apple Podcasts!! I have loved reading your writings, but have a hard time sitting still long enough to read anything, so audibles are the way I go now. Your message is important now John! It is vital that the Christian Left step up and speak up to counter the diabolical so called christian nationalists, who aren’t Christian at all. God Bless you John!!

  • Casting stones

    I know it's hard not to get carried away when you see injustice, but "putrid" is a pretty heavy stone!

    I am so confused about these shows that use The Bible to try to make us feel superior from one extreme perspective to the other extreme.

  • Cool water

    Thank you for these very short and very clear statements of what I’ve been hard pressed to express. I saw it 2016-2020. And yet 2024 through who knows when - continues to sicken & horrify me. These short podcasts are cool water to my soul.
