Funny, Yet With Depth

The hosts aren’t afraid to tackle tough and taboo topics, but always with a level of care. The honesty and openness is refreshing. Though the discussions are generally of a more serious nature, the guys are constantly lightening the mood with goofy humor.

Answering Adventism

I was raised 4th generation Adventist although I am not baptized. I am currently calling into question the beliefs of the Adventist church. I thoroughly enjoyed your episode with Miles and would love to hear more from people like him.

You guys seem kind of wishy washy on EGW. Either you believe in her 100% or you don’t. There is no middle ground. After all her writings are all supposed to be inspired, right? Personally after reading the less popular bizarre things that she wrote, I no longer believe she was inspired.

Asking the hard questions

I so appreciate the fact that you aren’t afraid to be honest and ask the hard questions, which many of us boomers thought about, but wouldn’t dare bring up! I was raised in a legalistic SDA culture and am finally, in my 60s, getting to know and love Jesus and His beautiful character. I love my church, and want to see and be a part of this movement as we deal with these issues instead of “sweeping them under the rug”.
