    BANDE-ANNONCE DE L’ÉPISODE 1, SAISON 1

    Trailer

    What happens when the faithful refuse to play by the rules? ¡Let's find out! It's time to wake the dead, revive the faithful, and unleash a movement! Welcome to Vile Methods, the podcast about disrupting complacency, reclaiming the gospel, and reviving Jesus’ people. Because—let’s be honest—many of us are walking through faith like the living dead. Alive, but not truly ALIVE. Going through the motions... stuck in undead forms of religion... failing to embrace the dynamic movement Jesus actually started—one centered on a LIVING God. There’s another way! Inspired by John Wesley’s challenge to be “more vile,” this show uncovers the stories of renegade pastors, guerrilla evangelists, and holy provocateurs conspiring for the sake of the Gospel. Join host Tyler Kaufmann each month as he explores: real, raw, and powerful stories of modern-day disruptors; disciple-makers that don’t wait for permission, worship that doesn’t need a sanctuary, and practical resources for a faith that refuses to be tamed. If you have ever felt that faith should be more than what we’ve settled for… If you believe the Church should leave its tomb… If you are ready to Wake the Dead… Then this podcast is for you. Subscribe now to Join the movement!!
