Why I'm Not

Inspired by G.K. Chesterton's book Heresy, "Why I'm Not" is a one-season podcast about my journey in and through Christian fundamentalism. Far from an academic treatment of any topic, this is more like a friendly coffee conversation centered around big ideas about God, the Bible, ministry, and life.

This project began as simple live video broadcasts on Facebook that surprisingly received thousands of views and inspired no shortage of dialogue, both online and off. After hearing from several folks who wanted access to the content — and since Facebook deletes videos after thirty days — I decided to recreate the material as a single-season podcast.

Join me on a journey of verbal processing and theological reflection. The mental road trip is paved with 80s and 90s pop culture references. No apologies. Whether you agree, disagree, or are simply undecided about topics I discuss, I hope these episodes inspire you to think and maybe even crack open your Bible and consider why you believe what you do.

Here's the episode list:

Episodes 1 and 2 released in late December 2025. A new episode will drop every Monday starting on January 5th.

  1. On Heresy & Heretics
  2. Why I'm Not a Fundamentalist
  3. Why I'm Not a Calvinist
  4. Why I'm Not a Young Earth Creationist
  5. Why I'm Not a Cessationist
  6. Why I'm Not a Dispensationalist
  7. Why I'm Not Big Mad About Women in Ministry
  8. Why I'm Not Sure About the Traditional View of Hell
  9. Why I'm Not Getting Over Jesus
  10. Postlogue: I love Jesus, but I will block a bro.

  • Why I'm Not Getting Over Jesus

    Why I'm Not Getting Over Jesus
    Feb 13 2026

    Rumors of my deconversion are greatly exaggerated.

    I’ve had some folks I’ve worked with in the past speculate I’m walking away from faith. I heard it through the grapevine. Trust me, it’s not true. As if.

    Some of y’all need to take a chill pill.

    They’ve said that’s me in the corner, that’s me in the spotlight, losing my religion. I’m not. I’m losing their fundamentalist version of it. And I’m glad to see it go.

    So today, I want to say this plainly, calmly, and without apology. I may be over fundamentalism. But I’m not getting over Jesus.

      • You might need to set up a free account to listen. I had to.
      • You can judge for yourself, but this debate was a bit of tipping point for me in taking a serious look at annihilationism as the arguments for it are far better than what are given against it, which mostly consists of doubling down on the fact the ECT is the traditional view wihtout much substantive arguments. I would encourage you to look for places where instead of dealing with the arguments for annihilationism, they are simply dismissed as not being "the normal reading of the text."
