• Despairing at Life
    Jul 20 2022

    We're still living in messed up times. How do we not live in despair?
    I don't really know other than to continue resting on God's promises.

    Couple a swears in this one.

    So much has happened over the past few weeks.  
    From Roe v. Wade to prayer in shcools to how churches treat their queer members.

    Join me as I ask some questions that puzzle me during this time of processing and parsing the world around us.

  • Response to the Response to the Response: synod2022
    Jun 23 2022

    I had written and recorded an entire episode. Then the video from a Minnkota pastor was uploaded (and taken down) with some really telling behavior.  I ditched the other podcast and just riffed. Here is that riffing.  I will likely publish the text of the podcast originally meant for today.  Check out my substack if you're interestred in that.

  • CRC Synod Hot Take
    Jun 20 2022

    Hey Everyone!

    In this episode I reflect on the feeling of this past synod.  Something just didn't feel right.  The Chrisitan Reformed Church made some decisions and people are just beginning to surface to share their hearts. Consider this my attempt to join that fold

    There are some references to "blood on our hands" and the implications of that phrase.

    In God's mercy,

    Steve Dee

  • Does Anyone Take the Bible Literally?
    Jun 8 2022

    Perhaps you've been raised to "take the Bible literally." Perhaps for you that meant your salvation hinged on whether you thought evolution was real or whether it's okay to be gay.  In this episode I try, or at least begin to try to debunk the notion that some people read the Bible literally and some do not.  

    Each of us picks and chooses the parts of the Bible we most resonate with.  What do we do with those parts of the Bible and how does it cause us to approach life?

    I wander between about three topics here from Creation to Sexuality to European Colonizers and their treatment of the native inhabitants of America.

    Enjoy!

  • The Lie of Chrisitan Nationalism
    Jun 6 2022

    Hey Everybody!
    In light of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's declaration that Christian Nationalism should be embraced, I figured I'd take to the mic and try and give a Christian response.

    More to come very soon!

    Don't let anyone tell you that you don't love Jesus if, in fact, you do.
    Love to you all!
