  • Declaration of Conformity: Formal Church Membership’s Hidden Agenda (095)
    Apr 20 2024
    I was installing a couple of lights in my garage and when I opened one of the boxes, a paper fell out with the heading at the top that read:

    FCC's Supplier's Declaration of Conformity

    So naturally, my mind went to formal church membership because at its core, formal church membership is a declaration of conformity. So let's talk.

    Links I mention to my previous episodes on church discipline:

  • The Debilitating Delusion of Institutional Religion, With Trent Antle (94)
    Mar 3 2024

    I asked Trent Antle to join me on this episode of the UnSunday Show because I wanted to hear more his story and I wanted others to have that same opportunity. After 20 years as a pastor in the institutional church setting, Trent began to see through the facade of propped-up religion as his eyes were being opened more and more to the New Covenant gospel of grace. He eventually walked away, not from Jesus, but from the system of organized church. This is his story and I hope you'll be encouraged by it.

  • Why Is The Church So Captivated by the Law and the 10 Commandments? (93)
    Feb 14 2024

    Why is the modern church so captivated by the 10 Commandments when the New Covenant scriptures tell us plainly that the Law has been fulfilled and abolished? One reason is the theological systems we subscribe to that have the Law and the 10 Commandments as their centerpiece. One such system is Covenant Theology.

    I also mentioned in this episode that we've combined the Instagram, Facebook, and Threads accounts for the UnSunday Show and the Grace Cafe podcasts into one account on each platform. You'll find us on these platforms at our new name of grace.podcasts. We hope to see you there!

  • Old Covenant Imperatives Don't Belong in the New Covenant (92)
    Jan 18 2024

    This episode is the audio I pulled from a video I just did. I came across a post in one of my social media feeds where a church had posted Joshua 1:8 as a memory verse for its people to memorize this week. The passage reads,

    "Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth. Meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful." (Joshua 1:8)

    Is it helpful to commit to memory a passage commanding that the Law of Moses be meditated on and that my successful meditation on the Law will ensure my success in life? You'll find links to the video below.

  • The False Doctrine of Top-Down Authority and Honorific Titles (91)
    Dec 31 2023

    Welcome to episode 91 of The UnSunday Show. In this episode I take a hard look at top-down authority and the use of honorific titles in the body of Christ. These things are not neutral and in fact, they do harm to the body of Christ by choosing to ignore the clear directives of Jesus concerning these important topics. In short, they prevent the body of Christ from fully expressing Christ to the world.

    I also include a short update about my YouTube channel for those of you who follow me there. Be sure to listen to the end to catch that.

  • What Does "Study to Show Yourself Approved" Mean? (88)
    Sep 17 2023

    Welcome to episode 88 of The UnSunday Show. Today we're going to talk about 2 Timothy 2:15. This is another verse in a long list of verses that has been taken out of context and weaponized by institutional religion to mean something that it was never intended to mean. Here it is in the King James Version:

    "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15, KJV)

    As a new believer years ago, I was told that this verse meant God expected me to stay on track with my study of the Bible as a demonstration to others that I was serious about my faith and that God approved of me because I was committed to the book, the Bible.

    But this verse has nothing to do with the Bible or the practice of studying the Bible. After all, there weren't any Bibles when Paul penned this. Institutional religion gave us that interpretation and it has nothing to do with the context of the passage. But this passage does raise some questions and these are what I talk about in this episode:

    1. What does 'study' mean?
    2. What does 'approved unto God' mean?
    3. What is the 'word of truth'?
    4. And how do I know when I'm rightly dividing it?
