    Caleb Campbell

    In honor of Independence Day, Holy Post Media released a new explainer video titled "Should America Rededicate Itself to God?" The short 12-minute video featured clips of a conversation between Skye Jethani and Caleb Campbell, the pastor of Desert Springs Bible Church in Phoenix and author of "Disarming Leviathan: Loving Your Christian Nationalist Neighbor." This episode features their full conversation, including Campbell's journey from neo-Nazi skinhead to senior pastor, what America's founders really thought about pluralism, and why so many pastors failed to speak up as their church members got sucked into Christian nationalism.   0:00 - Intro   1:29 - Theme Song   9:42 - The Founders RejectedNationalism   15:30 - Shouldn't Laws be Aligned to God's Will?   21:45 - How Caleb Changed   29:11 - This episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.

    French Friday - Vichy Christianity

    It's a history lesson on today's French Friday. David French explains the parallels between the Vichy French government that cooperated with the Nazis in WWII and Christian nationalists in America today. Both were highly misogynistic, nativist, and blamed liberal democracy for all of the country's problems. Obviously, things did not end well for the Vichy government in France. David and Skye discuss why the authoritarianism pushed by Christian nationalists won't work in America either. They also discuss the 2026 midterm elections and what the Democrats are learning from the popularity of pugilistic candidates like Platner in Maine and the decency of candidates like Talarico in Texas.   0:00 - Theme Song   1:11 - Vichy France and Modern America   8:18 - Mistrust Toward Democracy   17:50 - Why Do We Return to Authoritarianism?   33:08 - Graham Platner   43:41 - What's a Good "Representative?"   1:02:09 - End Credits   David French's Vichy France article: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/14/opinion/christian-nationalism-maga-france.html

    Disclosure Day: Faith, Aliens, and Spielberg

    Skye and Esau saw Disclosure Day by Steven Spielberg this weekend—did it make them believe in aliens? Maybe not, but it does show a cultural preoccupation with our place in the world. Would the existence of aliens change history? Would you believe aliens were telling the truth? Skye and Esau debate these issues and Esau pitches a sequel.   0:06 - Theme Song   1:15 - Disclosure Day   7:27 - Why Aliens Would Change Our View of God   13:51 - Religion Without God   25:40 - Are Aliens Demons?   29:05 - This episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.

    Drew's News - Weed, Prayer Apps, and UFOs

    The internet keeps serving up strange stories, and Drew Dyck is back to help Skye figure out what they reveal about faith, wisdom, and our very weird cultural moment. They start with a Christianity Today article on marijuana and the Christian life, but the conversation quickly turns toward a bigger question about how believers learn discernment when Scripture doesn't give a simple rule. Then they discuss Freya India's warning that prayer apps, livestreamed sermons, and gamified discipleship can quietly train new Christians to experience faith as one more thing to consume on a phone. Also this week, Skye and Drew talk about microwaved fish, AI-generated Christian content, ghostwriting, UFOs, demons, and why the modern world may be getting stranger, not less spiritual.   0:05 - Theme Song   2:10 - Christianity Today on Weed   11:02 - Fundamentalism   21:35 - Commodification of Christianity   24:46 - This episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.

    Orbiting the Hairball

    Because it's graduation season, Skye offers some lessons for those starting their careers. He takes us through the story of his professional development from seminary, to pastoral ministry, into journalism, publishing, and eventually the creation of Holy Post Media. Along the way, he draws on the metaphor from Gordon Mackenzie's 1996 book, "Orbiting the Giant Hairball," to explain the tension between our callings and feeling trapped in broken institutions.   0:04 - Theme Song   6:15 - Hairball Number One: Ministry   11:28 - Sermon ROI   17:03 - Hairball Number Two: Publishing   24:40 - This episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.

    French Friday: Jesus vs. Gerrymandering

    The Supreme Court recently struck down a provision of the 1965 Voting Rights Bill that prevented the dilution of votes by racial minorities, unleashing red states throughout the South to redraw congressional districts before the 2026 midterm elections. The outcome is likely to be fewer Black representatives in Congress. David French and Skye Jethani discuss the issue of gerrymandering—partisan and racial—and why it is contrary to both the Constitution and the Christian call to love our neighbors. They also offer suggestions for fixing the problem in order to heal our broken politics.   0:00 - Theme Song   0:21 - Being on Bill Marr   6:04 - What is Gerrymandering?   11:27 - Racial vs Political Gerrymandering   26:22 - Christian Podcast and Politics   29:57 - Disempowering the People   40:22 - Possible Solutions   52:37 - Do We Need a Third Founding?   1:10:47 - End Credits

    How Vengeance Replaced Justice

    We love stories about redemption, except when it happens to our enemies. Skye and Kaitlyn Schiess discuss why our culture has become fluent in justice, punishment, and public condemnation, but has lost the language of mercy, forgiveness, and restoration. Drawing from Priya Parker's conversation with Ezra Klein, they explore what happens when justice becomes vengeance and people are permanently sorted into victims and villains. They also ask whether the church still has the theological resources our culture desperately needs, including a vision of final judgment, true repair, and communities where sinners can be reintegrated without pretending harm never happened.   0:02 - Theme Song   1:22 - Announcements   2:54 - Priya Parker   8:03 - Inevitability of Harm   11:46 - Social Vengeance   19:00 - Rodney King and Reginald Denny   25:25 - The full episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.
