Joey recently heard some whopper of stories about famous pastors that seem to indicate them as entitled spoiled brats. Toby thinks Joey may be a bit too hard on them and believes it's crazy that we can't just say their names on air. What's a celebrity pastor anyway and are these stories incriminating no matter how you slice them? Oh, yeah, and YouTube takes over Matt's daughter and household.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com Emery Tour: emerymusic.com

Today we're just hanging out with Tim McTague and Aaron Gillespie of Underoath for an hour, talking about backlash they've gotten from their new album, and who among them has lost their faith.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com Emery Tour: emerymusic.com Blue Apron: blueapron.com/BADCHRISTIAN Indochino: indochino.com code BADCHRISTIAN  

The status quo is something we all define our lives by. Some seek to find it while others reject it in favor of a different life. Kristie and Matt MacDonald have chosen the latter. From moving their family to another country to touring the US with their three kids, these two have taken an alternative path, and it seems to be working. Check out their summer tour and new EP coming soon! Also, Matt's outraged about recycling.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com Emery Tour: emerymusic.com Vocal Few Kickstarter Vocal Few Tour: https://www.vocalfew.com/ Stamps.com: stamps.com code BADCHRISTIAN Zip Recruiter: ziprecruiter.com/BADCHRISTIAN

Jon Propper might be the best example of a full deconstruction and reconstruction of faith that we've heard from. As a pastor's kid, he grew up and even started preaching himself at 11 years old. He walks us through his journey of converting to Judaism, and then rounding back to Christianity in a bit different form. We also propose that it might be best to legalize prostitution for the sake of regulation.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com Emery Tour: emerymusic.com Texture: texture.com/BADCHRISTIAN Tooth and Nail Playlist: smarturl.it/TNNNew

Ray Harkins is a good friend of the show, he hosts the 100 Words or Less Podcast, and is the lead singer of the band Taken, who came out of the melodic hardcore scene in the early 2000's. After helping his wife battle cancer, Ray decided to write about something real and vulnerable on Taken's new EP "With Regard To." Also, why are people stoked on Justin Bieber's worship set at a festival, and yet Underoath gets scorned for swearing on an album?   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com Emery Tour: emerymusic.com Tooth and Nail Playlist: smarturl.it/TNNNew

Matt appeared on a podcast that despite Matt's "enneagram skepticism," pegged his number. Social media has us convinced that we are more liked and cared for than we really are. Lastly, the Damn News is back and the latest mass shooter is apparently a hero to many.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com Emery Tour: emerymusic.com Break it Down: breakitdownpod.com Lending Club: lendingclub.com/BADCHRISTIAN

Joey found some of his old premarital counseling notes. Now his chauvinistic approach to counseling couples only four years ago leaves him embarrassed. Bill Hybels, lead pastor of Willow Creek Church, steps down and it doesn't look good for him. According to Francis Chan, we should probably not talk about it.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com Quip: quip.com/BADCHRISTIAN Tripping.com: tripping.com/BADCHRISTIAN

Returning guest, Jamie Wright wrote a memoir on her journey of falling in and out of love with evangelicalism only falling in and out of love with missionary work right afterwards. "The Very Worst Missionary: A Memoir or Whatever" is a very honest look at her personal growth, personal flaws and the role that "church" and faith played throughout her journey.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com Brooklinen: brooklinen.com code BADCHRISTIAN MVMT: mvmt.com/BCPOD

Authors Jonathan Bock and Phil Cooke discuss the premise of their new book, "The Way Back: How Christians Blew Our Credibility and How We Get It Back." Just how did the church lose credibility? Toby went to church on Easter and said "shit" when he spilled Jesus' blood and let's make fun of a Men's Conference.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com BeachBody On Demand: text BADCHRISTIAN to 303030 MeUndies: meundies.com/BADCHRISTIAN Blue Apron: blueapron.com/BADCHRISTIAN  

Why don't we hear stories about Deborah, the only female Judge in the Bible, in Sunday School? Alice Connor is the author of "Fierce: Women of the Bible and Their Stories of Violence, Mercy, Bravery, Wisdom, Sex, and Salvation." She joins us on this episode to discuss some of the biblical women overlooked and misconstrued in modern Christianity.   Links & Sponsors: BadChristian.com thebcclub.com HIMS: forhims.com/BADCHRISTIAN Indochino: indochino.com code BADCHRISTIAN
