Dru was so excited about our last episode that he felt the need to share his thoughts on the topic. Also discussed: capital punishment and the bloodthirstiness of the Secretary of War.

Jaran Miller, one of the founders of Anabaptist Perspectives, is a conservative Anabaptist. Titus grew up Beachy Amish Mennonite but left conservative Anabaptism when he was 19 years old. In this raw, unedited, vulnerable conversation they discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the tradition and whether it still holds a compelling vision for the future.

Dru visits with Jon Carlson, Mennonite pastor from Pennsylvania as he boldly goes where so many have gone before: the book of Romans. Along the way, they discuss why Paul wrote Romans, common fallacies, and Dru tries to convince Jon that God hates everyone.

That Jesus Podcast is valuable because it's rare. We aren't like all those other podcasts that regularly release episodes as if they are common dross. We might even be back before the end of the year! Who knows! Enjoy!

Our latest episode created some waves when Titus announced that he will vote (gasp) blue (gasp, gasp!) as long as MAGA exists. We extended an open invitation for anyone to come on and challenge Titus' change of position on Christians and voting. Ali Parker, Joshua Parker, Sarah Beiler, and Matthew Milioni all obliged! It's a long one. Buckle up!

In this episode of That Jesus Podcast—because clearly, the internet was running low on those—the hosts dive into a "deep" and "contentious" chat about the U.S. political circus. They tackle the usual suspects: Trump’s presidency, immigration, and the "historical context" people usually ignore. They basically spend an hour reflecting on how hard it is to be a person of faith while everyone else is screaming at each other, eventually concluding that maybe we should all just be nice to each other. Groundbreaking stuff.

Dru, Chris, & Titus start the show off with a bit of a scuffle that started with Titus implying that Chris & Dru are left of center Anabaptists. Then, Wayne Welsh, a real Florida man, discusses nonviolence with Dru. Enjoy!

Dru brings on his friend Wayne Welsh, a Church of Christ minister, to give an articulate overview of the movement and discuss some of the strengths & weaknesses of this attempt to restore "primitivism" to the body of Christ. Wayne's church: https://hawkridge.church

Yup, we are actually going to try to revive this thing. This time we pulled in Chris Witmer as a regular co-host to provide that extra kick we need to pull it off... In this episode we discussed Chris' squeamishness around getting excited about a drug bust, whether staying "local" is a virtue, and more. Let's hope it isn't another year before our next episode (fingers crossed).

Dru and Francis are back to kick off 2025 with a review of the news, a bit of a Bible study, and the lofi banter you didn't know you missed in 2024. Despite the snark, we really care about this project, and are excited to get back on air! Let us know what you think, and share ideas for topics, guests, and musical cues.

Once again, we dive into Judges, and think about how the mighty Gideon fell from faith to cowardly idolatry. But first: a recap of what we’ve been reading lately, and corny poems for spring.  I mentioned Scribd at the top of the episode - it's a better-than-Audible audiobook and ebook platform.

This week, I drag @WalterRothbard off Twitter and into a wide-ranging conversation on political theory, marriage, and anger. David (real last name not disclosed) has an amazing testimony of the transforming power of Christ's peace over anger. We get into some turbulent waters as we consider critiques against an author that David has benefited from and conclude with some practical advice about overcoming anger. What did you think of the episode? Who would you like to hear from in the future? Does David's endorsement of Willard Harley ring true, or cause concern?
