Conversations on race, religion, politics, or anything that promises to be controversial has the ability to cause contentious conversations and cause ruptured relationships.

In Ashlee Eiland's new book, "Say Good", she argues that this does not have to be the only outcome of hard conversations. In this podcast, Aaron sits down with Ashlee how to have hard and fruitful conversations while staying in good relationship with other.

A question has plagued Christianity for some time, what do we do with a loving God in the New Testament seen in Christ when we find a God who directs violence in the Old Testament? There are various answers and theories that have been deployed to answer this, and yet, is it even the right question to ask to begin with?

In this episode, Aaron sits down with friend of the podcast, Chris Green, to discuss his new book, The Fire and the Cloud: A Biblical Christology, and to dig to the heart of the matter at hand. Perhaps it is not the Christ who needs to be reconciled to the God of the Old Testament, but rather, it is our understanding of what reading the text is meant to do in the lives of Christians, and what God does through that text. Christ is not far from the Hebrew Scriptures when we begin to reframe the way we approach the text and when we ask better questions of it.

Have you ever wondered about the business of the church? Wondered where your donations or tithes have gone? Have you felt that there has been a lack in the accountability of how churches spend money, or where they put there money into?

Nate Apffel set out to understand the religion of business in his new series "Religion Business", coming out in the Fall ('24). Listen along as Aaron talks with Nate about the business of religion, the problems, and the potential solution (hint: it is not taxing churches!).
