“Pastor—emphasis on past.” Jason Villanueva joins us and pulls back the curtain on church-plant growth quotas, preaching someone else’s sermon, and why a packed prayer night was treated like a problem. We get real about burnout, metrics vs. people, and swapping platform life for the “micro”:real relationships, creation, and meals. Deconstruction? He calls it reduction—and it might be the most honest thing you hear all week. If you’ve ever wondered why so many pastors quietly quit (or if church can exist without the performance), this one’s a gut punch—in a good way.

Ever bumped into a “mystic in the wild” ata coffee shop? Same. We swap stories of secret handshakes-for-the-soul, talkholy curiosity vs. heresy, and tease a framework for testing mysteries:relationship-led wisdom vs. paywall-initiation vibes. Plus, why face-to-faceconnection (and all that nonverbal frequency) matters more than ever in ascreen-first world. If you’ve ever felt “too much for church,” this one’s yourgreen light.

Kimb and Joshua unpack the differencebetween head knowledge and lived truth—why preaching concepts withoutexperience can fracture trust, and how embodied faith changes the way we leadand learn. They question the pedestal we put pastors on, touch onAPEST/five-fold roles, and make the case for moving beyond theory into applied,relational discipleship.

We riff on Romans 1—finding God’s nature increation—and wade into big waters: evangelism vs. revelation, what the Trinitymeans in practice (one in nature, distinct in form), and whether “God abandonedthem” is better read as God yielding to our choices. We talk leadership thatdoesn’t coerce, why “adversary” beats “enemy,” and how real relationship (notregurgitation) unlocks the mysteries.

From blood transfusions and prosthetics to Neuralink and AI ethics, Joshua and Kimb explore the fine line between innovation and interference. Can technology enhance the human experience, or are we crossing boundaries we’re not meant to?

In this episode, we’re diving intosomething that’s been stirring in both of us: the power of rituals. Not justthe motions or symbolism we’ve sometimes dismissed—but what if these areactually spiritual technologies meant to shape us? We talk through thesacraments like baptism, communion, confession, and more, and reflect on howwe’ve experienced them (or missed them) in different faith spaces. This isn’tabout going back to rigid religion—it’s about reimagining these practices astools to stay connected to God and live more intentionally. If you’ve ever feltlike you’ve thrown out something sacred just because it felt “religious,” thisone’s for you.

Some conversations start without a plan—andsomehow end up uncovering something big. This one opens with the idea ofnostalgia and quickly unfolds into a deeper exploration of how our relationshipwith the past shapes our present and future. We dig into the difference betweenhonoring what came before and getting stuck there, how tradition can either bea foundation or a trap, and why it’s so easy to confuse comfort with purpose.

There’s reflection on faith, growth,movement, and what it means to live as someone who’s rooted but not stagnant.Whether you lean toward history, the now, or what’s ahead, there’s room to ask:are you moving forward, or just standing still in a familiar place?

Do you ever think about forever? In this episode, Joshua and Kimb dive deep into the concept of eternity—and not justthe “heaven someday” version. They explore the idea that eternity has already been placed in our hearts (yes, Ecclesiastes 3:11 makes a big appearance), and wrestle with what that even means in the middle of our very mortal, verytime-bound lives. From deathless mindsets to predestination vs. free will, they navigate the philosophical, the mystical, and the slightly controversial (looking at you, Judas). This conversation feels like a meandering walk throughancient questions with fresh eyes—so bring your curiosity and your theological humility.
