EP 32 What is the Gospel?

In this episode, we're joined by Cameron Schweitzer to explore the biblical definition of the gospel through passages like 2 Timothy 2, 1 Corinthians 15, and Romans 1. We also examine how the Reformers understood the gospel and why justification by faith alone has been central to the Christian faith. We discuss: -What the gospel is according to Scripture -Why justification is at the heart of the gospel -Whether modern evangelicalism has shifted toward a therapeutic message -How theologians like Scot McKnight, N.T. Wright, and John Mark Comer understand the gospel -Why getting the gospel right matters for every Christian Our goal is to return to the apostolic gospel: the good news that Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried, rose again, and justifies sinners by grace alone through faith alone. "For I handed down to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures"— 1 Corinthians 15:3–4 If you enjoyed this conversation, don't forget to subscribe, share the episode, and join the discussion in the comments.

EP 31 Evangelical or Catholic: Which Way? Part 2

Episode 31 continues our discussion on Evangelicals and Catholics by focusing on the two major doctrinal divides that have remained largely unchanged since the Reformation. While many assume the greatest differences involve purgatory, confession, the saints, or even the sacraments, we argue that the central issues are much deeper: justification by faith alone and the development of Marian dogma In this episode, we discuss the Protestant doctrine of sola fide, the Roman Catholic response at the Council of Trent, and the broader question of faith, works, assurance, and grace. Ultimately, this conversation asks an essential question: What is the true ground of our justification before God? Join us for Part 2 of this important discussion.

EP 30 Evangelical or Catholic: Which Way?

In Episode 30, we dive into a growing conversation happening right now—why are some, especially younger generations, being drawn toward Roman Catholicism? Is this a true revival… or something else? We explore what it actually means to be Catholic and evangelical, tracing definitions from history, theology, and modern culture. From the early church fathers to today’s institutional expressions, we ask: What is the Church? And who belongs to it? We also break down: -The meaning of “catholic” as universal vs. institutional identity -The core distinctives of evangelical belief -Where Catholics and evangelicals agree—and where they sharply differ -The role of Scripture, tradition, and authority -Why some are drawn to the beauty, structure, and history of Catholicism Ultimately, this episode points back to the central question: Is faith grounded in Christ alone—or in something more? Join us as we think carefully, historically, and biblically about a trend that’s shaping the modern church.

EP 29 The Doctrine Quietly Spreading in Christian Circles

In this episode, Kyla, Brody, Bo, and Ryan discuss annihilationism — the belief that the wicked are ultimately destroyed rather than eternally punished. We break down what annihilationism teaches, where the idea came from historically, and why it’s gaining traction in some Christian circles today. Together, we explore: What annihilationism actually claims How it differs from the traditional view of eternal punishment Historical roots of the doctrine Modern teachers and movements promoting it Why the conversation matters for theology and the gospel This is a thoughtful and engaging discussion examining a growing belief and encouraging listeners to think carefully about Scripture, tradition, and theological consistency.

EP 27 Part 1 Rival Kingdom: Christianity VS Communism

In this episode, we examine a provocative claim: Is communism not just a political theory—but a type of religion? From Karl Marx’s vision in The Communist Manifesto to modern political rhetoric about class struggle and “material foundations,” we explore whether Marxism mirrors the Christian story—creation, fall, redemption, and consummation—but redefines it in purely material terms.

Ep 23 Curses, Blessings, and One’s Spiritual Heritage

In this episode, Brody shares his powerful near-death experience — what he saw, what he felt, and how it changed his view of life and faith. From there, we dive deep into the topic of curses — what they really are, how they show up in the Bible, and what it means for believers today. It’s an honest, thought-provoking conversation that blends the supernatural, the scriptural, and the deeply personal.

EP 22 Under DE-construction

In this episode, Kyla, Bo, and Ryan dive into the growing movement of deconstruction—what it really means, where it started, and why so many people are wrestling with their faith today. We unpack the cultural and personal roots of deconstruction, share real stories, and explore how to navigate the pain, confusion, or disillusionment that can come from negative church or faith experiences. Most importantly, we talk about how to rebuild your faith on a foundation that’s stronger, truer, and rooted in grace. If you’ve ever found yourself questioning, doubting, or trying to make sense of your spiritual journey, this conversation is for you.

EP 21 What kind of martyr?: The Legacy of Charlie Kirk

In this deeply moving episode, Kyla, Bo, Ryan, and Brody come together to reflect on the life, assassination, and memorial of a truly great and godly man. We explore his lasting impact, the faith that carried him, and the hope his legacy brings to us today. Join us as we discuss the weight of loss, the power of remembrance, and the call to live courageously in faith—no matter the cost. 🙏 If this conversation encourages you, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share.

EP 20 Escaping the Void: Faith vs. Nihilism

In this episode of Pastor and Postmaster, Bo, Ryan, and Brody take on one of the deepest challenges of our time: nihilism — the belief that life has no real meaning or purpose. Together, they unpack what it looks like to stare into the “void” of hopelessness, and how faith in Christ offers a radically different story. With honesty, humor, and biblical insight, the trio explores how the gospel speaks into feelings of emptiness, showing that true purpose and lasting hope are found in Christ alone.
