S02E02 50 vs 18 - A Gen X Reckoning

Send us Fan MailAt 18, I was absolutely certain I had life, faith, and morality figured out. At 50, I know how wrong that certainty made me.In this episode of The Mighty Philbert, I reflect on who I was at 18 — licensed into ministry, convinced of biblical inerrancy, and quick to judge — and contrast that with who I am now: more curious, more empathetic, and far less interested in being right than in reducing harm.This isn’t a theology debate. It’s a Gen X reflection on certainty, indoctrination, and the long road to empathy.
