🌀 Bad Bunny & a Showgirl or The World Is On Fire 🔥 Can We Put it Out This week’s episode of Evangelicalish is a blend of light-hearted banter and serious spiritual reflection. Paul and Ashley couldn’t agree on a title—so we gave you both. Ashley returns inspired from a civic engagement summit and makes the case that democracy is a spiritual practice. Paul’s not so sure our systems can heal without collapse. (Is the world on fire, or are we the fire?) Also: 👗 Who’s the showgirl and who’s the

🎙️ The Meaning of Life... and Other Light Topics This week, we wade into the deep end of existence with a deceptively simple question: What’s the meaning of life? Inspired by a fascinating dialogue between an agnostic philosopher, a Christian apologist, and a Hindu psychologist, we explore how purpose is shaped by belief, culture, and consciousness itself. We’ll wrestle with the “Paper Clip Problem” — can a person live a good, fulfilling life doing something seemingly mundane, like making

(Is Marjorie Taylor Greene… actually right about something?) The “I will bless those who bless you” verse — does it really apply to the nation-state of Israel today? 👀 Plus, why Dan started posting online, how he deals with backlash, and what keeps him committed to

Just Because You Say “No Offense” Doesn’t Mean You’re Not OffensiveWe’ve all heard it — and maybe even said it: “No offense…” before dropping a comment that’s, well… offensive. In this episode, we unpack why slapping “no offense” in front of a statement doesn’t make it harmless, how it’s often used to dodge accountability, and why words matter more than the disclaimers we attach to them. From church small talk to political debates, we explore how this phrase shows up, the damage it can do, and

Is Empathy Toxic? Evangelicalish Podcast

2025/06/22

You were never too sensitive. You were always too wonderful to be suppressed. Christians have been told to be grateful, to give up understanding and... always be "closing" on converting others. American Christianity has a book making the rounds claiming that empathy is dangerous—a kind of emotional weakness that leads people astray. That it’s “soft on sin.” Join Paul and Ashley Swearengin for the 🎙 Evangelicalish Sunday Livestream and decide if Empathy is toxic — or if this is just toxic theology

2025/05/11

@UnconventionalPastorPaul talks of how ethical decisions must be made ahead of difficult situations that require a higher level of morality. The lack of such ethical foundations, Pastor Paul argues, are why the Republican Christian view of Immigrants, today, parallels the view of Jonah and people not of his race and religion; and why the god of Jonah's story asked him "How's that feeling of disdain for others working out for ya?"

The Comfort of the Mob or Courage of a Spirit of Christ

Evangelicalish ·

2025/03/10

Why do people join a sectarian church community? Or MAGA? Or a mindset group like conspiracy theory followers? It's to gain identity from inclusion in that group. Too often, that group turns inward to become an "us" and soon starts looking to demonize "them" - those who are not us. And once demonization and dehumanization starts of "them," out come the torches and pitchforks and everyone better LOOK OUT! Getting out of the mob is messy and scary and, according to Pastor Paul... totally worth it

It shocks western Christians sometimes to realize Jesus isn't American and didn't speak English. Neil Douglas-Klotz, PHD has written about Jesus through the language or Aramaic, which was Jesus' actual native tongue. The book is an approach to Jesus’s recorded words and teachings to answer many questions clearly and consistently, even if unexpectedly, no matter which Gospel one has in their hands. Paul and Ashley discuss with Dr. Klotz why Aramaic’s multiple meanings can provide revelation and
