#192 Escaping Legalism and Cult-like Teachings, with Jinger Duggar Vuolo
Jinger Duggar Vuolo grew up in the spotlight on the popular television show, "19 Kids and Counting." As she grew into adulthood, she began to question the strict, legalistic, and cult-like teachings of Bill Gothard in which her family was steeped. Instead of deconstructing her faith, Jinger took the difficult path of untangling truth from false teaching, and faith from fear. She joins the podcast to share her story and some encouraging advice for others who might be questioning and recovering from false and harmful teachings.

#190 Is Biblical Faith a Blind Leap in the Dark? with Shane Rosenthal
Faith is one of the most misunderstood concepts in Christianity. Some think it's a blind leap in the dark with no evidence to back it up. Others think it's a force you wield in order to manifest certain realities. Still others think it's the opposite of doubt, and something that only exists with absolute certainty. The "Humble Skeptic" Shane Rosenthal joins the podcast to bust some myths about faith! Check out Shane's free resource, "What is Faith?"

#189 Let's Talk About Jesus Revolution
Many of you have asked my opinion about the popular movie, Jesus Revolution. In today’s episode, I will broadcast live with my honest review. I’ll share some things I loved, some things I wished would have been different, and one thing I hated about the film. I will also play a conversation I recorded with my Dad earlier this week where I ask him what he thought. Since the film is about the time and place in which he got saved, and an actor even plays him in the movie, I thought it would be fun to ask him what he thought they got right, and what was added for artistic license. Then I’ll come back live to take any questions you might have!

Joshua Ryan Butler joins the podcast to talk about the reality of hell and the goodness of God’s wrath. We discuss some common misconceptions about hell and respond to a deconstruction TikTok that claims hell is a product of Hebrew, Greek and Norse mythology and was coopted by the church to control people with fear. Watch for Josh’s response!
Customer Reviews
Super Relevant and Informative Podcast
I’m so grateful for having found this podcast. I live in Australia but grew up in the USA. Usually whatever happens in America happens later on here. I hadn’t heard about deconstruction prior to listening about it here. Now I know what to look out for when I see it happening here.
That said, I certainly do see plenty of other issues in churches that Alisa covers as well as ways to speak to those outside the church. Alisa, well done on all you do! You are a fantastic light in a dark world!
Challenging, sharpening, equipping
Thank you Alisa. Been following this channel for around 2 years.
Always spot-on with the truth
Cannot say how much I appreciate this podcast in unpacking so many of the issues facing both individuals and the broader church in our word today. I always leave with more to think about but feeling encouraged and uplifted! Thank you!
