Send Jeromy a Message or VoicemailWhat if hell isn’t God’s punishment—but our protest?In this episode of Slutty Grace, Jeromy Johnson asks whether hell might simply be the porch outside the party—the place where the “good” and the religious stand, too offended by mercy to step into grace.Through the story of the prodigal son’s older brother, and other moments when Jesus flipped religious expectations, Jeromy explores what happens when divine love feels too inclusive.It’s a raw reflection on Christian deconstruction, faith reconstruction, and the scandal of universalism—the belief that God’s love is for everyone, even those we’d rather keep out.After the monologue, Jeromy is joined by  Jonathan Brink for an honest, heart-level conversation about heaven, hell, forgiveness, resentment, and theology—and what it means to follow a God whose grace doesn’t play favorites.If you’ve ever wrestled with faith, questioned religion’s gatekeeping, or wondered whether grace could really be that wild, this episode invites you to open the door and walk inside.
