Pastor With No Answers Podcast
Summary: Joey Svendsen, formerly of BadChristian Podcast, is a pastor who found freedom in gladly embracing mystery and relinquishing his long list of theological “certainties.” Growing up a fundamentalist, evangelical Christian, he now explores faith through progressive lenses while continuing connection with evangelicals, many who are part of the church he pastors at. Join Joey, his regular commentators and many special guests (progressives, traditionalists and evangelicals alike) as they discuss God and the Bible. Hear about Joey's experiences with mental illness. Reflect with us on stories of tragedy.

Author and Professor Dr. John Walton (Wheaton College) joins Jared and "Country Boy" Ryan in a discussion on a contextually sensitive interpretation of Genesis. Ryan and Jared actually find common ground on this one. [episode note: my (Jared) main objection to "evolution" is the metaphysical materialism often associated with it, i.e. the origins of life and its subsequent development into more complex organisms occurred randomly, through blind, accidental natural processes only. I also object to the wholesale, dogmatic buy-in of evolution as a fact. Of course micro-evolution is a real phenomenon that can be observed today]
