What is next?

from Stuff Your Pastor Won't Say · host Jesse Mase, Zach Way

As we close out Season 1, this episode zooms out and sets the stage for where the conversation is headed next. We wrestle with identity, the fall, and the consequences that still shape our theology, churches, families, and culture today. From shallow faith and church hurt to the supernatural, mystery, and the limits of what humans can truly know about God, this episode isn’t about neat answers. It’s about asking better questions and refusing a small, manageable version of belief.This conversation opens up threads we plan to explore in future episodes, and we need your help deciding where to go next.
