Two Baptists and a Mormon Walk Into a Pentecostal Church
Two Baptists and a Mormon Walk Into a Pentecostal Church isn’t a joke—it’s our real story. Three friends from different faith backgrounds share how we ended up in the same Spirit-filled church. We wrestle with theology, healing, and the wild work of the Holy Spirit—with humor, honesty, and hope. From speaking in tongues to church hurt, we’re not experts—we’re just trying to follow Jesus together. If you’ve ever felt too weird for church or too churchy for the world… you’ll fit right in.
Episodes
Episode 40 tackles the Bible passages we often avoid — Old Testament violence, divine judgment, and raw laments. The hosts explore Psalm 137, the Amalekite conquest (1 Samuel 15), and what lamenting looks like in worship, mixing study with personal stories, including one hosts conversations with his father.
They encourage honest questions, contextual study, and sitting with difficult texts rather than skipping them, emphasizi...
Episode 39 features guest Cameron as the hosts dig into the real-life challenges and joys of blended families—covering adoption, fertility struggles, co-parenting logistics, holiday stress, and how kids process change.
Honest stories and practical advice center on putting the child first, avoiding forced relationships, communicating clearly at an age-appropriate level, and offering grace and space so blended families can thri...
Hosts unpack whether Christians should drink alcohol, concluding the Bible permits drinking but stresses heart posture, responsibility, and avoiding causing others to stumble. They share personal stories, scriptural references (including Jesus turning water into wine), and cultural perspectives on abstinence versus moderation.
The episode emphasizes showing love over judgment, leadership responsibilities, and asking God for persona...
Episode 37 explores the difference between forgiveness, reconciliation, and honor through Scripture and personal stories. The hosts unpack Exodus 20, Ephesians 6, Matthew 10 and other passages while sharing family conflicts, social media pitfalls, and the role of boundaries and heart posture.
Practical takeaways: you can forgive without restoring a close relationship, set healthy boundaries without shame, and let faith guide whethe...
Episode 36 examines why people hide addictions and struggles in church, how pride and judgment create unsafe spaces, and what it looks like when faith communities choose truth and love. Hosts share stories, talk denominational cultures, and challenge listeners to be a safe, empathetic presence for those who need it.
Episode 35 tackles the tension between social media’s power to spread the gospel and its danger to replace local shepherding and authentic fellowship.
The hosts weigh benefits and risks—evangelism, accountability, heart posture, algorithms, and the need for local discipleship—asking whether likes and shares make the church healthier or weaker.
Grant Bias, a preacher's kid turned Nashville artist, shares his journey from Pentecostal church life to competing on The Voice, writing hit songs, and finding his lane as the "country soul preacher."
He opens up about personal struggles, a powerful song about suicidal thoughts called "Wednesday," and how family, faith, and music shape his message and mission.
“Is He really enough?” as they explore doubt, grief, and authentic faith. Drawing on stories from Job, the three Hebrew children, Paul, and their own church experiences, they discuss how true trust often grows in the valley, not on the mountaintop.
The episode challenges church culture to stop hiding struggles, to offer honest ministry instead of quick fixes, and to learn that God’s sufficiency is proven thr...
Episode 32: Hosts and guest Robby explore the sacred vs. secular divide and contrast the first‑century house‑church model with the Western, audience‑style church, tracing historical shifts from Hebrew unity through Greek philosophy and Constantine.
They call listeners to live faith 24/7 by bringing the fruits of the Spirit into workplaces, restoring small group discipleship, and shifting from attending church to being the church Mo...
In episode 31, musician Robby McGee recounts his 1988 diving accident, the long road through paralysis and rehabilitation, and how those trials inspired his song "When Miracles Don't Come." He shares how the experience tested his faith, reshaped his identity, and strained—but ultimately strengthened—his marriage.
The episode highlights themes of waiting on God, the power of community and prayer, obedience over outcomes,...
In this unedited Episode 30 of Two Baptists and a Mormon Walk into a Pentecostal Church, the hosts tackle what it means to "play church" — the difference between going through the motions and genuinely seeking God. They discuss heart posture, the church of Sardis from Revelation, dry seasons versus slow fades, and the danger of performing faith for people instead of God.
The episode includes a candid testimony about addiction...
In this lighthearted episode the hosts catch up and trade hilarious church stories — from potluck disasters and performance faceplants to falling‑out moments during worship and chaotic tour‑bus mishaps.
They laugh about food, travel headaches, and the funny, human side of ministry life. Episode 29: Just for Fun.
Sprinkled or immersed. Infant or believer. Symbol or sacrament. Trinitarian formula or Jesus name only.
Baptism is the one practice every Christian tradition holds in common and almost none of them agree on.
Most Christians have been handed a version of faith that puts Sunday at the center and everything else at the edges. Church is sacred. Work is secular. Ministry is what pastors and missionaries do. Monday through Friday is just how you pay for the weekend.
This episode cha...
Accountability is biblical. Legalism is dangerous. And the line between them is thinner than most churches want to admit. In this episode we dig into Matthew 18, the process Jesus gave for handling sin in the church, and ask the hard question: how did something so clearly designed for restoration become one of the primary sources of church hurt in people's lives? We talk about what healthy correction actually looks like, what spiri...
Is a generational curse real — or is it one of the most misused concepts in the modern church? In this episode, a Baptist, another Baptist, and a guy who used to be Mormon walk into the most controversial topic we have tackled yet. We dig into the Old Testament texts that started this whole conversation, the New Testament texts that seem to shut it down, and the real-life patterns that make everyone unsure what to believe. We...
The Bible and the Holy Spirit Working Together
Some people lean only on the Bible. Others lean only on spiritual experiences. In this episode we talk about why both approaches fall short and how Scripture and the Holy Spirit were always meant to work together. The Word without the Spirit can become rigid and lifeless. The Spirit without the Word can drift into confusion.
We explore how the Holy Spirit inspired Scripture, how He ill...
How to Apply the Bible Without Misusing It
Reading the Bible is one thing. Living it faithfully is another. In this episode we talk about how to apply Scripture without twisting it, weaponizing it, or using it to support ideas it was never meant to carry. We explore the difference between interpretation and application and why context matters more than convenience.
We walk through common passages that are often misunderstood or mis...
How to Study the Bible
Many people read the Bible, but fewer know how to truly study it. In this episode we slow down and walk through what it means to approach Scripture with intention, humility, and depth. Using the story of the wedding at Cana in John chapter 2, we model how to observe context, culture, language, and purpose rather than rushing to application or assumptions.
We talk about how to ask better questions of the text,...
There has never been more Christian content available and there has never been more confusion. In this episode we talk about discernment in a world full of opinions platforms algorithms and spiritual noise. We explore how to test what we hear without becoming cynical fearful or closed off to the Holy Spirit.
