    Was It Really Her Fault? The Lindsay Clancy Case | EP.105

    On the A5 Podcast, the hosts walk through the Lindsay Clancy case and make the argument that two things can be true at once: postpartum depression is real, and there is a spiritual side to this story that deserves a closer look. Lindsay Clancy, a former Massachusetts nurse, is charged in the deaths of her three children in January 2023. Her defense argued that she was experiencing severe postpartum psychosis and was not criminally responsible. Her trial ended in a mistrial on September 4, 2026, and prosecutors have not yet announced whether there will be a retrial. This one is for men of faith looking for a biblical way to process a difficult headline, one that holds compassion for mental health and the need for accountability together, and still leaves room for grace and redemption.

    Pastor Explains How Christians Should Use AI (Before It Controls Us)

    Pastor Jon Rush joins the A5 Podcast to explain how the church can use AI, and why "you need to use AI until AI starts using you." Jon is a pastor and Christian creator with a background in larger ministries. He's building Vice City Church, a digital church inside GTA Online, and helps churches and organizations grow online. He talks about using technology as a tool for the gospel without letting it run your life, why paper Bibles may become valuable again, and how to hold grace and accountability together when church leaders fail. He also covers why someone can be "disqualified from ministry" but "not disqualified from purpose," how to stay faithful to the church instead of deconstructing, and his aim to amplify compassion without softening conviction. 0:00 The Church and AI 3:45 Tesla, Prepping, and Wisdom 6:17 Why Keep Paper Bibles 9:08 Informed Versus Obsessed 11:29 Grace When Pastors Fall 28:33 Embracing God's Sovereignty 34:25 Vice City Church in GTA 38:21 Where the Church Was Silent 40:06 Pastors and the Algorithm 45:57 Conviction Paired With Compassion

    Pastor Jon Rush: Should Christians Play GTA 6?

    On this episode of the A5 Podcast, we traveled outside Florida for the first time to sit down with Pastor Jon Rush in Nashville. We talk about why he went all in on the online space when the church ignored it, how World of Warcraft became his community through his parents divorces, and his real reaction to the GTA 6 gameplay. We also get into gray areas like media, alcohol and nicotine, why blanket answers don't help anyone, the difference between nuance and ambiguity, whether Christians should make money, and what it means to build an ancient future.

    A whole generation stopped dreaming. That offends God.

    Pastor Matt Boyle leads Sozo Church in Miami. He is originally from England, and three years ago he moved his wife and three children across the world to a city he had never set foot in, because he believed God told him to. In episode 100, we get into why a whole generation stopped dreaming, why the church turned ambition into a dirty word, and what separates godly ambition from the kind that runs people over on the way to the top. Matt makes the case that failure is not the sin, low aim is. Then he tells the story of a drawing he made as a six year old that he did not understand until his mom put it back in his hands. 0:00 One hundred episodes in 2:51 England to Miami with three kids 5:07 Why this podcast almost ended 7:28 Are Christians too ambitious or not ambitious enough 11:13 Low aim is sin 16:06 Has the decline of faith taken hope with it 24:05 Greetings, mighty warrior 26:34 You are what you eat 30:41 You're not too far gone 38:08 Where we went wrong with the word ambition 41:34 My way or God's way 44:14 Ambition without correction 46:42 Rebuked for having no ambition 49:57 The picture he drew at six years old 51:29 Let the fire get lit again
