Ballsy Christian Honesty

Educated Christians with the guts to say and question anything. Thought provoking work that helps broaden my idea sphere and thinking.

Thought-provoking, encouraging, and challenging!

I have thoroughly enjoyed this podcast since its inception. Jon and Nat not only share honest and often funny conversations with each other, they do a brilliant job of bringing out the best in their guests. And the range of views and expressions of faith/spiritually in their guests is refreshing! I don’t think I’ve heard an episode yet from which I haven’t come away feel enriched mentally, emotionally, spiritually, or all three. Keep up the great work, guys! ~~~Joni
