PodQuest is a no-pressure, judgment-free space for the weary soul — skeptics welcome.
Here, faith isn’t about rules or religion — it’s about a genuine relationship with God and each other. We’re on a quest to heal the hurt that rigid religion has caused, to restore trust, and to rediscover the authentic Jesus — the One who loves without conditions, gives without demands, and meets us right where we are. This is a place for honest questions, real conversation, and hope that runs deeper than appearances. Whether you believe, doubt, or aren’t sure yet, pull up a chair, grab a maple bar, and let’s explore life’s biggest questions together.

The night Babylon fell wasn’t loud. No catapults. No fire. Just the sound of water running low.
While the empire slept, Cyrus’ army slipped in through the drained Euphrates—right under the walls the world thought were impenetrable. A gate left open, a prophecy fulfilled, and a reminder that pride often forgets to lock the door.
In this episode, we trace the quiet fall of Babylon and uncover how God’s hand moves in history—sometimes...
What do an ancient king’s dream and today’s headlines have in common? In this episode, Pastor Kip unpacks one of the most fascinating prophecies ever recorded—a dream that mapped world history long before it happened. From gold to iron, from Babylon to Rome, and a kingdom that never fails, this story isn’t about fear—it’s about a God who still reveals, still reaches, and still cares. Grab a hot cup (and maybe a maple bar) and join ...
Episode 9: Five Books, One Big Question Across history, humanity has searched for truth through sacred writings — from the Vedas and Tripitaka to the Qur’an, the Guru Granth Sahib, and the Bible. Each claims wisdom, guidance, and connection with the divine. But can they all be right? Or does one stand apart?
In this episode, Pastor Kip takes a respectful, thoughtful look at five of the world’s major holy books — exploring their ori...
Did Jesus Raise from the Grave? We walk through the historical evidence—early sources, empty-tomb reports, post-death appearances—and then fairly weigh the leading alternatives: stolen body, swoon, wrong-tomb, hallucinations, legend. No pressure, no spin—just a thoughtful, seeker-friendly look at why the resurrection still refuses to go away… and what it might mean if it’s true. (Yes, there’s a maple-bar moment.)
Episode 7: Jesus: Legend, Lunatic, or Something More?
Plenty of people admire Jesus—some call Him a wise teacher, others a prophet, and many dismiss Him as just another man. But what if those categories don’t quite fit? In this episode of myPodQuest, Pastor Kip digs into one of the most important questions of history: who was Jesus, really? We’ll explore what skeptics, seekers, and historians have said, and why the way you answer ...
Episode Title: Was Christianity Borrowed from Myth?
Description: Skeptics often claim that the story of Jesus was copied from ancient myths—echoes of dying-and-rising gods, pagan festivals, or legendary heroes. But does the evidence actually support that claim?
In this episode of PodQuest, Pastor Kip explores the parallels, the differences, and the historical reality behind Christianity’s foundations. We’ll look at whether the Gosp...
Ever notice that the Bible has four Gospels? Some people wonder—why not just one? And if they don’t all line up word-for-word, does that mean the story can’t be trusted? In this episode of PodQuest, Pastor Kip unpacks the unique voices of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, showing how their different perspectives actually strengthen the reliability of the story. Along the way, you’ll find out how these four portraits of Jesus can help ...
Some say Jesus is just another myth. But history tells a different story. In this episode, we look at extra-biblical voices, Roman records, and the ripple effect of a carpenter’s son who changed the world.
What do you do with Jesus when His followers let you down? In this episode, Pastor Kip gets real about the painful reality of “church hurt” and why so many walk away—not because of Jesus, but because of Christians who wound. From hypocrisy and cliques to scandals and broken trust, we explore why bad religion stings so deeply and how Jesus Himself actually predicted it would happen.
With some maple bar humor (of course), hammer anal...
When you strip away the hype, who actually lives and teaches a way of love you can trust?
