Got some hot pod-on-pod action this week. We were joined for this very special Christmas-adjacent podcast by Chris Bovey and Bryce Neusse of the Broken podcast.
We talk about how the dudes lost their respective churches but rediscovered their faith in the wake of George Floyd, and how they feel like their calling now is to slay the biggest hypocrisies in the evangelical faith while considering themselves evangelicals.
For them it comes down to trying to live a life that is less like Joel Osteen and more like one Jesus Christ (For our unreligious listeners: he was the guy on the cross).
Luke also opens up about his childhood in the evangelical church, the traumas that pushed him out and his hope for more people like Chris and Bryce.
Friends, it’s A LOT.

Luke, love what you’re doing with this podcast and this episode especially hits home for me. Thank you Chris and Bryce for bringing a fresh perspective from the Evangelicals side. As someone who also grew up in the church, got burned, and walked away, I’m still trying to come to terms with the rift between myself and my family and friends who still live in the Conservative Christian echo chamber. It’s a culture that is so baked in, hard to break out of, and then hard not to feel ostracized from, especially among family. I’m the guy still trying to have those hard conversations with family, especially about why I’m no longer a believer and the state of our country and political system, but it always feels like the same one-sided conversation that goes nowhere. This conversation feels a lot more open and productive. Thank you. Keep up the good work. I look forward to listening to more episodes.
Luke, I really appreciated this episode. So many themes that resonate with me and my experiences growing up in the church. I thought I was alone and I am learning how many folks have had similar experiences, who are asking similar questions as me. Thanks for this gift!
