Ep 27: Are We Entertained by the Very Sins That Jesus Died For?

July 10, 2026

Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than going to McDonald’s makes you a hamburger. Yet, so many of us fall into the "illusion of proximity"—the comforting but dangerous idea that being close to holy things means we are right with God. In fact, Billy Graham once dropped the shocking claim that the greatest mission field in the world is found right inside local church membership rolls.

With Pastor Rodney still away on vacation, Pastor Johnny Mitcham is back in the co-host seat alongside Bryan Evans. In this special bonus episode, they are joined by the man who completely disrupted our comfort zones this past Sunday: Pastor Eddie Taylor! Together, they break down the story of Nicodemus—a brilliant religious insider with the ultimate religious resume who had to sneak out under the cover of darkness to find real life.

If you've ever felt like you're just keeping up with the mechanics of religion while feeling completely dead on the inside, this raw, unfiltered deep dive into John 3 and the book of 1 John is exactly what you need to hear.
