    Exposing The Religion Business w/ Chris Ayoub :: Ep 48 The 615 Podcast

    Veteran realtor and host Nick Woodard sits down with combat veteran, entrepreneur, and executive producer of the docu-series “The Religion Business,” Chris Ayoub, for a raw conversation about faith, money, and corruption inside religious institutions. Chris breaks down how the nonprofit system really works, why religious nonprofits operate in a “dark hole” with almost no financial transparency, and how billions in donations are potentially wasted, abused, or stolen every year. They unpack tithing, housing allowances, megachurch real estate empires, and how spiritual manipulation keeps people giving without asking questions. The conversation takes an even darker turn as Chris previews Season 2 of “The Religion Business,” focused on child trafficking, child abuse, grooming at camps, and why our government massively underfunds the fight against crimes against children. They discuss Tim Tebow’s work, law enforcement’s limitations, and why the true body of Christ must rise up and take responsibility. Along the way, Nick and Chris wrestle with questions of personal faith, institutional trust, reading the Bible cover to cover, and what it really means to follow Jesus in a world where both government and church systems are failing the most vulnerable. If you’ve ever felt uneasy about where your tithe dollars go, questioned megachurch lifestyles, or worried about your kids in today’s world, this episode will shake you, challenge you, and give you a framework for taking your faith and your stewardship back. Listen in to learn:– The difference between secular and religious nonprofits– How religious status creates massive financial loopholes– The reality behind tithing, housing allowances, and megachurch money– Why child trafficking and abuse are being ignored at scale– How to reclaim a personal, direct faith in God and be a better steward of your money and your family #The615Podcast #ChrisAyoub #TheReligionBusiness #ChurchTransparency #Tithing #Megachurch #ChildTrafficking #ProtectOurKids #FaithNotReligion #NashvillePodcast
