WARNING: If you're not a Christian already, listening to this will probably not make you one either and if you are a Christian, you probably won't go to hell for listening to this...although I guarantee nothing. The contents herein are the observations of one wayward soul longing for a sense of home. They will likely challenge your sensibilities and could at times be offensive, not merely for the sake of offense but because it may challenge what you have long accepted as normal, usual, and expected from someone in my position...a pastor, preacher, evangelist, teacher, or whatever label you would prefer. I prefer "Shannon" it's what my parents named me and it comes with slightly less baggage than most of the other things you might call me.

S4:E1 Am I Doing This Right?
Far too often we are told that we have to do things a certain way with regard to our faith in order for them to be valid or legitimate. But does scripture actually back that up or is that insecure people calling themselves "Christians" trying to validate themselves or possibly a church trying to validate its existence in the community? Join me on this little stroll through the search for an authentic faith and where it may be best to practice that faith.

S3:E1 Taking Out The Trash
We’ve all heard a lot of misleading messages about God’s anger because it’s usually taken that God is angry at people and wants to wipe out the disobedient ones. But what if God really, really loves us and just wants to wipe out the things in us that don’t produce any “fruit” and not us? Maybe what God really wants to do is take out the trash in our lives so that only the good and fruitful stuff remains.
