In this episode of TheoDodos, we’re joined by Matt Allman—pastor, teacher, and master of the chicken wing—as we unpack what it means to follow Jesus in a divided and skeptical world. From his early days finding faith at a Young Life camp to planting churches in San Diego and serving at Northside Christian Church, Matt shares powerful stories of friendship, failure, and Holy Spirit-led moments that shape a life of ministry.

We dig into:

• What unity in the modern church really looks like
• Why relational evangelism beats the “Jesus juke” every time
• How to love people without compromising the gospel
• The importance of just being a good neighbor (and grilling good wings)

Whether you’re a skeptic, seeker, or seasoned believer, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to rethink how we engage culture with grace and truth.

Why are so many young people leaving the church?

In this episode of TheoDodos, Jeff Lemarr and Rob Sharpe sit down with Nathaniel Hilmer to unpack the real reasons teens walk away from faith—and what families and churches can do about it.

We talk about the role of parents versus programs, how discipleship at home shapes lasting faith, and why intergenerational relationships in the church matter more than ever. Plus, Jeff and Rob go deeper into how to love well in a divided culture and how to trust God’s unseen work.

If you’ve ever asked “Will the next generation stay in church?” or wondered how to help your kids build a faith that lasts, this conversation is for you.

Is faith in conflict with science, or do they reveal the same truth from different angles?

In this thought-provoking episode, Jeff and Rob welcome special guest Tim Ferree, elder at Northside Christian Church and international trainer for Discipleship Global. Tim brings his background in physics, computing, and missions to the table for a powerful conversation about the intersection of science, faith, and the call to discipleship.

We explore:

• How science and faith can complement each other
• The mystery and fine-tuning of creation
• Quantum entanglement and spiritual reality
• Why your personal story (testimony) matters
• Evangelism tools like the Three-Thirds Bible Study
• The power of Jesus’ resurrection as both historical event and spiritual turning point

Sprinkled with humor and heartfelt moments, this episode blends intellect and inspiration. Whether you’re a skeptic, seeker, or follower of Christ, this one will challenge and encourage you.
