The Aaron Renn Show

I’ve been a long time listener to the podcast and newsletter subscriber. I was surprised when I saw I hadn’t rated this yet. Needless to say, it’s five stars. Aaron Renn brings a calm yet different perspective than you often hear. He also brings a wide variety of guests to interview on a range of topics. It’s worth listening to a few episodes. After you do, I imagine you’ll find a new show to add to your playlist.

I really like Renn. He’s attuned to the question of many Christian men: - What attracts me to Jordan Peterson that I find lacking in Bible-first churches? - What can we learn from General Revelation that we aren’t hearing during the Sunday morning exposition of Special Revelation? Thankfully, there is a growing number of insightful godly voices, who are talking about challenges and solutions for modern Christian men. Renn’s analysis is as keen as any, and his urban, city-loving perspective a helpful balance for the 80% of us who aren’t able or ready to move to Moscow ID. Thank you Aaron!!! The Lord bless and multiply your influence!

I listened to about the first 6 months of his podcasts. At that point, I felt like I was wasting my time. I also wondered, why is this guy so guarded about telling us his opinions? I know many factual things about his life - from Indiana, moved to Chicago and NYC, went to Keller’s church, was a consultant, worked at think tanks MI and AEI, moved back to Indiana, etc. But I know very little about his opinions. He may think that it’s important so people don’t reject his ideas based on biases against his other positions , but I can’t trust a person who hides what they think. And I can’t invest a lot of time listening to a person whose judgment I don’t trust. I was on the fence about this podcast until I listened to the interview of his friend Alexandria on civility. That is not worth anyone’s time.

Insightful, though provoking commentary, highly recommend..
