Talking about Bible stories is often fraught with scholarly nerd alerts about ancient linguistics and inaccessible theological discussions centered around hermeneutics. But what if there was a way to use your pop culture literacy to enhance your biblical literacy. What if you could recap the Bible like you recapped your favorite TV show? Welcome to the Bible Binge hosted by Knox McCoy and Jamie Golden of The Popcast.

Lace up those Yeezys and polish that Gucci belt because in this very special interview episode of Favored or Forsaken, Knox sits down with Ben Kirby of PreachersNSneakers. We’re no strangers to asking any and all questions surrounding faith, and through discussing his Instagram account and recent book, Ben Kirby explores why it is helpful to question celebrity church culture. Join Knox and Ben as they discuss things like whether we might have a responsibility for putting pastors in unwinnable positions and how to safely engage with someone who has the phrase “coffee and Jesus” in their Instagram profile.

In this episode, we dive into our most requested faith adjacent topic… the Enneagram! Instead of helping you type your dog or fuel your fire towards your frenemy who always finds ways to bring up their type in conversation, we wonder: Is this personality test essential for self-discovery? Is this a cult with Satanic roots? Could it possibly just be a helpful tool in the toolbelt of the Christian life? Join Resident Bible Scholar Erin Moon as she asks these questions to explore the history and faith adjacency of this polarizing phenomenon.

We all know him as the sealer of Jesus’ fate, but is there more going on than what we can see depicted in an Easter season church play?

Following recent high-profile Christians leaving various denominations, local churches, or Christianity completely, we explore the topic of leaving the church to decide if it is favored or forsaken. Is this recent phenomenon the equivalent of a Covid divorce? Or has this unrest been a slow simmer that has just now reached its boiling point? Join Knox, Jamie, and Erin as they explore what makes someone leave either a church or the Church and find out if there’s more going on to “leaving the church” than just ghosting a building.

We’re venturing into the dark and wicked world of ancient royal politics. When Athaliah receives word that her son, the king, has been killed, she does what anyone would do and ascends the throne by murdering her entire family. Or so she thinks. This story twists and turns through secret hideaways, flash mob coronations, and surprise horses. Wickedness is everywhere, but can the line of David prevail?

Grab some hot chocolate, snuggle up in your favorite pjs, and join us for this extra special Lil Faith Adjacent where we chat with our favorite jolly elf, Santa Claus! In this just-for-kids episode, Host Erin Moon teaches us all about Santa’s biggest inspiration, Saint Nick, and then Santa answers all of your most important questions. How old IS Santa, anyway?
See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Today on Faith Adjacent, join us as we walk right down Santa Claus Lane to chat about that jolly old elf: Saint Nick, Kris Kringle, Santa Claus. Santa’s origin story is a mix of cultures and traditions, some more faith adjacent than others, but are Santa and Christianity really at odds with one another? In this episode, we separate man from myth to see what a fictitious Christmas character can teach us about honoring the reason for the season. **Disclaimer: If you have little ears that do not need a podcast host telling them secret insider information, you might want to wait before you listen in front of them.**
