    Big Eva: What is it? And why you should be afraid, or not.

    In my final episode of Season 2, I do a deep dive into the term Big Eva and why such a snarky term is used by both Right Wing Christians and Progressive Christians to denigrate the same Evil Empire.  Join me as I travelled around blogs, Twitter, Facebook and other podcasts to track the usage of Big Eva.  And yes, I am naming names.

    Travis Johnston: "Wear Your Greek and Hebrew as Underwear"

    How does one become a professor at a Bible College?  Join Travis Johnston and I as we discuss his journey from being a student to a professor at Millar College.  We also touch on the importance of exegesis and learning Biblical languages, with a side tangent: does Hebrews 10:25 really tell us to meet together in large groups during a pandemic?  Plus we end on Travis' top 5 picks for board games to play after you've had enough of Settlers of Catan and Ticket to Ride.

    Jason : Life on the "Left" Coast and Why I Stopped Calling Myself a Christian

    A childhood friend from small town Saskatchewan drops in talk life on the "left" coast.  Now living in Vancouver BC, Jason recounts his thoughts behind a Facebook post where he admits he has dropped the term "Christian" and focuses on being a Christ-follower.  Listen along as we touch on  punk music, American politics, living in a modern pandemic and the state of modern Christianity. The introduction got a bit longer than usual as I try to figure out why Christians dislike the COVID vaccines so much.

    From small town Saskatchewan to downtown Winnipeg, Tim Harris is using his gifts to further God's kingdom wherever he goes.  We start his story where we met at Millar, move on to Rock Solid Refuge (a Christian program for struggling youth in SW Saskatchewan), a pitstop at a nursing home, and finally his current position at Union Gospel Mission in Winnipeg.  He shares stories about homelessness, the meth epidemic and his role as a chaplain for UGM's residential program.
