Maybe God

Host Eric Huffman asks the Maybe God family for help with an urgent Christmas wish.

The Maybe God Podcast team recently sat down with Greg and Gaebri Kelley, featured on the recent Showtime docu-series "Outcry", to share one of the most chilling and troubling cases of wrongful accusation you’ll ever hear. It’s the heartbreaking, gut-wrenching story of two young people in love who fought for justice against all odds, and found God along the way.

Randy Travis overcame all odds to become a country music legend, but few people know the whole story. After surviving an abusive childhood and struggling to stay sober and out of trouble as a young man, Randy's determined work ethic and signature baritone voice propelled his meteoric rise to superstardom. In the years that followed, however, his life slowly fell apart, and in 2013, he suffered a stroke that took away his ability to speak, sing, and walk. On this episode, we ask Randy and Mary Travis how it's possible to keep trusting God when your life feels like a country music song.  *** Have questions, comments, or story ideas for Maybe God?

In the wake of the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and others, the flames of rage engulfed our national conscience. Some of the anger was righteous indignation fueled by a genuine longing for justice; some of it was violent, opportunistic, and even deadly. Where do we go from here? Are we ready to deal with systemic racism? Should we "dismantle whiteness"? For those of us trying to follow Jesus, what is the Christian response to racism? We tackle all these questions and more with the help of Dr. Esau McCaulley, author of the new book "Reading While Black," as well as a Texas couple with a truly unique perspective on recent events in our country. *** Have questions, comments, or story ideas for Maybe God?

As tensions continue to rise over race in America, Eric Huffman revisits a conversation from season one with author, pastor, and humanitarian Rudy Rasmus about baptizing Beyonce, pledging allegiance to the flag, and being Black and Christian in Trump's America. With a potent blend of grace and brutal honesty, Rudy reminds Eric of his responsibility to speak out about racism and white supremacy - a reminder that we all need to hear. *** Have questions, comments, or story ideas for Maybe God?

Has a global pandemic been a welcomed break from the busyness of everyday life? Over the years, we've warned people about the intoxicating nature of money, sex, pride, anxiety, and shame, but we've failed to alert people to the most popular gateway drug of our time: busyness. Pastor and author of "The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry" John Mark Comer warns that constant distraction and hurry are the greatest threats to our spiritual and emotional health. According to John Mark, hurry is incompatible with love, and if God is love, hurry prevents God from truly transforming our souls. Eric and John Mark suggest that this COVID-19 moment could be our best chance to declare independence from the soul-sucking busyness we sold-out to years ago, and they offer simple, practical ways to reject chronic busyness and to embrace real life and real love. *** Have questions, comments, or story ideas for Maybe God?

What do you do when you can't feel God in the struggle? What do you say when no words can heal what's broken? On Maybe God, we start by listening to each other's stories. For this first episode of Season 4, host Eric Huffman cold-calls listeners from all over the world to find out how they're coping with the fallout from COVID-19. He expects to hear voices trembling with uncertainty and fear; what he encounters, however, are people full of faith, hope, and love. Each person has a story to tell about how the pain from their past prepared them to find peace in the present. Through their stories of resilience, we can hear the voice of God.   *** Have questions, comments, or story ideas for Maybe God? Head to maybegodpod.com to contact us.

Host Eric Huffman looks back at Season 3 and invites Maybe God listeners to the biggest Maybe God LIVE event yet on September 15, 2019 in Houston.  

As the crisis intensifies along the southern border, scoring political points is easier than getting to the heart of the matter. Some say the US has a moral obligation to receive all refugees; many others, including 68% of white evangelicals, insist we have no responsibility to receive any refugees at all. But what if we're looking at this crisis from the wrong point of view? By giving migrants a platform to share their powerful stories of faith, this episode compels us all to walk a mile (or 2,000) in their shoes. When we take the time to listen, their faith will change our hearts, and when all our hearts are changed, we'll change the world together.   Please support Pastor John Garland’s work with the refugee community in San Antonio by visiting sanantoniomennonite.org today.  *** Have questions, comments, or story ideas for Maybe God?
