The Go To Hell Podcast

We’re joined by frequent guest and friend of the show Nolan to discuss the war between the US and Israel with Iran. It includes a discussion of reports that parts of the US military officer corps conveyed dispensationalist messages to the troops, including “war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth.”

First we celebrate the USA Men's Hockey team beating Canada in the Olypics, as well as a review of the Olympics overall. Then Mike Huckabee, US Ambassador to Israel, started a domestic and international kerfuffle by agreeing that in theory Genesis 15 promises the most of the Middle East to the modern state of Israel. We discuss the biblical problems with this view of Israel and why Christians should not embrace Zionism. This episod...

A Super Bowl preview. Grammys trivia. Tim's movie of the week. We continue our Christianese series discussing righteousness and salvation and the different views within the Church on both aspects of Christianity.

We start with a little football talk... reactions to Indiana winning the national championship, possibly the greatest coaching turnarounds in history, and gripes about officiating. Tim hates a worship song. Finally, we kickoff a new series we're calling Christianese where we'll be discussing Christian concepts like evangelism, discipleship, etc. We start with evangelism. What is it, how is it practiced? (35:00)

Beer of the Week:

We talk a little college football. Golden Globe trivia. Tim's in a personal funk. Then we dive deep into why Francis Chan left a megachurch to pursue home church, the importance of genuine community and spiritual gifts, and how small groups can — or can’t — replace true Christian fellowship. How do we love one another well?

We spend the first 38 minutes talking college football. At minute 39 we do some English Premier League trivia. Finally we delve into the main topic of the evening (01:05), a candid conversation about moving to home church models. What does Francis Chan's home church ministry, We Are Church, say about starting home church? Smaller churches or home church might be better than the current Church Inc model but what are the pitfalls to ...

We draft our top 10 songs that have days of the week in the title. Israel is spending millions on a campaign aimed at churches to boost support. American "religiosity" is at an all time low. Is that good or bad? Maybe the answer to that question can help reform the Church in America and lead to a church DOGE.

Apologies, folks. This is an episode that got lost in the ol’ Go To Hell hopper. Recorded about a month ago, it was briefly forgotten by the shows producer (ahem… Tim), but it an important one. We start on our usual light note, with a conversation about the best movies of this century and the current state of movie making. 

(00:01:16) Using the show’s seemingly topic du jour, pacificism, what would happen if Christians just acted a...

We discuss the assassination of Charlie Kirk. What caused it and where do we go from here? Is this a watershed moment for our country? Folks, the only way out of this is to take Jesus seriously and love our enemies.

We have a followup discussion on the decision making process, efficacy and morality in dropping the ghoulish weapon. Finally, we discuss the ridiculous political fight over gerrymandering, specifically between Texas and California. While strange, gerrymande...
