Gunger is a Christian worship musician turned cult leader and this podcast reflects that’s change. I can only assume they are high when recording as there the talk in the calm, chill “believe me, I’m enlightened” voice while thinking they are deep yet using circular statements (think people that...Read full review »

The production is great but I truthfully have a hard time listening to Michael G. He sounds like he is being real but there is also this sense of being disingenuous and artificial. But when you throw in a couple songs and notes that tug on your heart string, you start to feel goosebumps and I...Read full review »

I have been on a journey exploring my faith and spirituality and I recently stumbled upon this podcast. This has been such a wonderful resource for me. The December 2021 episode with Briana Lynn was fantastic and I shared it with a few friends.

So moving - thank you. I still don’t know how to think about my former faith - but I probably will never be able to shake the feeling. Familiar words that connect me with the parts of myself I can never be again but - of course- are still me somehow.

I love listening to the podcasts. I was just curious if there was anyone else out there that still loves reading the Bible, but could also point me in the direction of a translation that uses the most non dual language.

My wife and I have been following Gungor’s music and for me personally, the first two seasons of the Liturgist conversation has been as enlightening as it is entertaining. A lot of it is due to its eclectic group of hosts and guests coming together to discuss and debate topics that are too...Read full review »

Love the honesty and thought provoking dialog. Don’t agree with it all, don’t disagree with it all, don’t have to. Appreciative of your continued work. Thank you!!

An hour-long segment interviewing a PhD in communications about obesity. A subject she isn’t remotely qualified to speak about. Not a single mention of the actual pathophysiology of the disease process. A fabricated argument based on semantics (e.g. “evolution is just a theory” level arguments)....Read full review »

I found this podcast in the middle of a breakdown/enlightenment/reassociation to my body/deconstructing my evangelicalism all by myself after being cut off by my friend group at church. I have been more lonely than any season of my life, and with more physical panic in my body coming out. What...Read full review »

The latest season has been the most enjoyable to listen to and to learn from. They aren’t trying to be “woke” Christians. They are having honest researched conversations about what post evangelical non-literal faith can look like. If you want to be challenged and open your heart to a fuller...Read full review »

This is my favorite podcast.
drmiela via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/21
This podcast has evolved (or devolved depending on your perspective) from progressive Christian to no longer being Christian at all. I know deconstruction is the order of the day, but something must be said for someone abandoning Christianity altogether for something different. I would not...Read full review »

At times I agree wholeheartedly, at times I’m squirming in my chair, confused, lost…or feeling understood for the first time in my life. At times laughing, crying, contemplating…but always feeling so much love from the Liturgists. I truly believe this podcast has made me a more loving person....Read full review »

Shalom, Every voice on this pod has given itself to the greater good of THIS experience.

I once got advice from a best-selling author to be a half-step ahead of your audience, but not a full step. I feel like MG’s unforgivable sins and bad reviews have been because he’s unapologetically a full step ahead. It has cost him audience numbers, but his integrity holds, and I am here for...Read full review »

To all the folks putting this together and out there. Especially Michael. I love your soft heart. You have led me into direct experience of the joy and beauty of the one that is so much wider and deeper than the box I was born in. I think that instead of “robbing God of worship he is due” as your...Read full review »

I have loved this current season more than all of them. It’s been thought provoking and deep. It takes us to a realization of our tiny vantage point into all things spiritual. Thanks for being the catalyst into a whole new world.
sandraanndouglas via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/02/21
I have now listened to all of the podcasts, and some of them more than once. I appreciate your honesty, questions, and the topics and ideas you address. I appreciate how your podcasts stimulate my thinking and help me to consider ideas. I do not always agree, but if two people agree on...Read full review »

This was one of the best. It helps to understand the church and worldview that I left, in an insightful and respectful way. I love the metaphors.

Sad
I loved this podcast in the early days. It was thought provoking, insightful, and relatable. As a Christian who’s grown up in the church, I felt like I was listening to like minded individuals who had hurts, hang ups, questions, good and bad memories, and overall common goals to mine. As it’s...Read full review »

Where’s Peter Rollins to talk about how Hegelian dialectics relate to the trinity on the Trinity episode?
Jric3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/21
The Liturgists podcast has radically changed my perspective on so many things, and it has done so in an educated, welcoming, peaceful, and thoughtful way. I cannot say enough good things about this podcast. It has walked with me through my deconstruction, validated my concerns with Christianity,...Read full review »
Kiah362781 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/21
Stay away from this podcast. I’ve listened to as much as I can and it’s just a ton of nonsense based on feelings and Western logic. The guy says in one episode he has no idea if Jesus is a real person, but that what Jesus taught is true…ehhhh yikes. It’s a lot of the type of “teaching” that is...Read full review »

Totally misses the supernatural peace and power that comes through intimacy with Jesus. Not sure why this is even under Christianity. Completely looking in the natural realm.
RockyTopGal2 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/07/21
This show lost a very important perspective once Science Mike left the show. Hasn’t been the same since.
KRY0610 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/22/21
I discovered this podcast right as I left the church. And for a time I wondered if I would have deconstructed as much as I did without it. I probably would not have. This podcast gave me so much information and the other perspectives I needed to finally be able to say, “ok, I’m done” and walk...Read full review »

A group of well-meaning leaders wanting to provide a safe space for those hurt by the church instead established a misery-loves-company online support community. But, because things don’t move towards chaos, they find themselves forming a religion that is Christianity without the Christ, one...Read full review »

I’m always surprised when people search for God, find him, (you can’t not) but are not willing to accept things that go against what they think is best for their life. We have no control over how we come in to this world and very little about how we go out and yet we are always trying to make God...Read full review »
Joshuano7 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/20/21
I think it’s fair to describe this podcast as an individual’s personal commentary rather than a podcast reflective of Christianity. If you’re anticipating historical or academic quality this isn’t for you, this is armchair DIY stuff. Not recommended

I started listening to the liturgist podcast early on when they first started and looked forward to the conversations on the podcasts. It was stimulating and thought provoking at the beginning to hear various perspectives on different issues. It felt open and inclusive like everyone was welcome...Read full review »

I’m a podcast junkie, love to listen and have hosted several. I am beyond thrilled that I found The Liturgist. The stories, conversations, music, all of it is so masterful. Each episode is a thought-provoking experience. Season 7 is my favorite season so far, and I’ve listened to and shared each...Read full review »

If you’re a deconstructing Christian you will find many of the topics and discussions engaging, and even comforting to hear like minded people. If you are a more traditional evangelical you may feel disappointed and even frustrated at interpretations of the Bible and theology that you will find...Read full review »

As someone who was raised Christian, this podcast is everything I need to unlearn problematic beliefs and ideologies, as well as to question religious institutions. Thank you :)
Lola Luffnaigle via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/18/21
This podcast is yet another place in society where people are departing from Faith and Reason. These two are not at odds with each other. They are inextricably intertwined. I’m truly sad that I listened to this for a time. By the grace of God I did not stay on this path. This kind of subjective...Read full review »

Long time listener of the show. Fell off for a while. BUT if this new episode that came out is any indication of the quality of this podcast now, you HAVE to listen. Michael had a large team with him before and for whatever reasons, they’re not there anymore. I see why. Michael’s approach for...Read full review »

Please, save yourselves, if you want the content this podcast offers in a less ridiculous, slightly less self satisfied format just go buy Richard Rohr books. Another example of deconstructing self styled “reformers” thinking they have all the answers while saying “look we don’t have all the...Read full review »

I think this podcast is a reflection of the deconstruction phases many Christians are transitioning through and could not be more relevant in my life. Thank you for these discussions and the community that has formed around this.

podman166 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/21
I was a fan of this podcast for several seasons, but recently the content has lost its credibility with me. The hosts and most guests do not have training in Biblical literature, and the title “reverend” that many guests have really doesn’t hold up. Give me an hour online and I could have a...Read full review »

I am blown away by every episode. The editing, the intellect, the spirit in which each episode is constructed is so refreshing And entirely life giving. You know, I’m my opinion. Keep investigating the tough stuff team - you have a subscriber for life. - M from NZ

Listen: it was a great concept, but they’ve really deviated. The first hand full of episodes were about art, science, and faith, and then they quickly dropped off. Science Mike kept it pretty well centered, but then they started during fewer and fewer curated episodes (highly recommend the LGBTQ...Read full review »

I found myself challenged to consider some of the differences between certain sects of Christianity. Obviously there is a very liberal bias, which is to be expected as the topics discussed are not usually so thoroughly explored by the so-called evangelical church (LGBTQ, abortion, heaven and hell...Read full review »

I’m all for asking questions and exploring doubts, but I think this podcast is too cynical of the church and traditional interpretation of scripture.
