  Bar Tunes, Hymns, and the Endless Arguments Over Christian Music (with Jonathan Allen Wright)

  Aug 20, 20261 hour

  For those around the church, you've probably heard the complaints: Modern worship is too repetitive, that hard rock stuff doesn't sound Christian, I wish we could go back to the hymns... These complaints are not new, in fact as long as there has been Christian music, there have been people complaining about what's wrong with it. Jonathan Allen Wright walks us through how this has been the case since the very first hymns were written. It's an eye-opening conversation! Also you 100% need to subscribe to Jonathan Allen Wright's Youtube channel. He covers Christian music history and artists in the best way we've ever seen it done. It's insightful and honest.

  Episode #68

  Being Heard, VS Being Helped (with Mysti Jordan)

  Jul 16, 20261h 2m

  When someone is dealing with loss, or pain, or church hurt, we often want to give an answer, or a reason. More often than not, though, it isn't helpful, and the person feels unseen, or unheard. We talk to our friend Mysti about a stretch of ongoing church hurt she experienced, and navigate the messy process of navigating it. Our authentic and raw conversation isn't about a tidy conclusion or answer, but the process of being there for someone through hard seasons.
