Sunday School for Heathens Podcast

Sunday School for Heathens is a show about Christianity and how weird it sounds to everyone else. Co-Hosted by Bryan, a self professed fanboy of religion and religious history, and Shannon who never went to church growing up and learned all her religious history from pop culture, each week we dive deep into a story or topic in Christianity; answer the questions you are afraid to ask, compare the historical and contemporary points of view, and examine the differences across Christian denominations of all kinds. With jokes, trivia, and absolutely so religious agenda, Sunday School for Heathens is the religion podcast for everyone.
