Welcome to The Spiritual Brewpub Podcast, a safe haven for ex-evangelicals or anyone restless about their faith or religion in general. In Episode 2, the topic is: Contrasting the Original Jesus Movement with Christianity – or The Difference Between Jesus and Christianity.
How it will help you: This episode will help you understand logical reasons you may have rejected evangelicalism, fundamentalism, church, and/or parts of the Bible, even though you still see the wisdom of Jesus. It will give you ideas on how to reconcile it all. Understand how the positive things you saw/see in Jesus got you into a religious system that turned out to be spiritually abusive. Then learn to differentiate the historical Jesus movement from the corruption found in modern religion and many churches so you can decide how to reconstruct or come to terms with your faith and experience.
Bonus Blurb: Learn the pitfalls of religion by hearing the “10 Reasons Beer is Better than Religion.”
Quote of the Week: The quote comes from Garry Wills, Author of “What Jesus Meant.” A critic of both evangelicalism and some liberal streams of religion, Garry helps us avoid religious traps and focus on what matters most.
