We've missed a really big question over the past couple of weeks. I don't how we missed it, but we won't today! Before or after you listen to today's episode, could ask you to go over to The Best of the Pinebelt , and nominate God Knows Where for Best Podcast ?! Today's episode, "Kingdom Come," is the latest in God Knows Where's first series, "I Didn&ap...

Is America a Christian nation? Should it be? We've never shied away from big questions, and the many ways we approach this question rips the Church apart. The good news, Jesus doesn't say a word about Christian nations or really even nations of any kind. He's more concerned with a Kingdom that's not of this world, but can be if we follow his lead. Today's episode, "Ki...

We love to draw lines, to say this ours, and that is yours, but whether we like it or not, we’ve only got one place to call home: Earth. Jesus wasn’t big on boundaries, especially the ones we draw on maps and lay all over this planet we call home. Let's talk about how Jesus frames our future in light of our past, all the way back to the very beginning. Today's episode, "Line Drawing...

We love talking about rights in America, don't we? Guess who didn't? Jesus. Let's talk about how Jesus framed our life and liberty and responsibility today. Today's episode, "Right Fight," is the latest in God Knows Where's first series, "I Didn't Say That." Hope you enjoy! Don't forget to leave us a review in Apple Podcasts or wherever you&ap...

FYI: Today's episode acknowledges the existence of sex and touches briefly on suicide. If someone you're listening with isn't ready to hear about those topics, give it a listen first or pull up another episode of God Knows Where for your car ride. There's maybe no more polarizing issue dividing the Church today than what we're discussing today, and Jesus never said one wor...

It's striking how often similar language and perspectives appear before and after Jesus in the scriptures, but never come out of Jesus' mouth. That's maybe no clearer than in the ways scripture talks about women. So much of what is said by those not named Jesus has shaped women's roles in The Church to the detriment of the approach, respect, and relationship Jesus had with wome...

They (whoever they are) have been known to say, "The only constant is change." Is that even true about God? Let's wonder as we keep wandering down this path toward God Knows where...Today's episode, "Better Together," is the latest in God Knows Where's first series, "I Didn't Say That." Hope you enjoy! Don't forget to leave us a review in Appl...

There is a lot (A. LOT.) we need to let go of in The Church. We'll look at a number of those (from my perspective at least) over the next few weeks. We'll start with our approach to scripture. How does what we think of the Bible differ from Jesus', and what can we learn from looking at it from his perspective. Today's episode, "Get Biblical?" is the latest in God Know...

Give. Connect. Love. Release. These are the four responses I mentioned earlier that we have to Jesus' call to follow him. We've talked about them all except "release" until today. There are some things we have to let go of when we follow Jesus, not lease among them our belief that we have to do it all. We can't. The problem is, though, that Jesus does it all, and so we thi...

We continue our journey to God Knows Where by continuing looking at love for one more week. We've talked about how true love is honest love and how all love is curious. It's also respectful. Especially when our love becomes romantic and intimate. Jesus talks a lot about respect in relationship to love, but we talk more about something else. Something we don't think we're suppos...

We continue our journey to God Knows Where by continuing looking at love. Last week, we talked about how true love is honest love. Well, it's not just that. It's also curious. But...well...we don't really handle curiosity well in the church do we? Too many questions might be a bad thing. At least that's what we fear. Today's episode, "Curious Doorknobs" is the la...

We continue our journey to God Knows Where with a look at love and, more specifically, a look at a love story that gets lost in translation. Thanks to everyone who shared the show with others as a part of our "You Can Help or You Can Hush" t-shirt giveaway. Winners will be announced on social media today (2/14). Today's episode, "True Love" is the latest in God Knows Where...

We continue our journey to God Knows Where with a deeper dive on connection. If we're supposed to present with those around us, then that means there have to be others around us. Community is at the heart of Jesus' message. Sometimes we get it right. Sometimes we get it wrong. But, we can't forget we can't do this life alone. Today's episode, "Glove Compartment"...

If you noticed the title, don't worry, we haven't begun a countdown (Ten Percent, Nine Minutes...). But we are continuing our journey to God Knows Where with a first look at another way we respond to Jesus calling us to follow him: connection. There's really only one place and one time we can connect with others: right now. So why do we spend so much time thinking about the past or...

We continue our journey to God Knows Where with a deeper dive on generosity. Not what we give spontaneously in the moment, but who Jesus wants us to be when we have time to think about how generous we're willing to be. Today's episode, "Ten Percent" is the latest in God Knows Where's first series, "I Didn't Say That." Hope you enjoy! Follow God Knows Where:...

Today, we're pivoting from talking about what we believe to how we apply it--what it looks like out in the wilderness. One way we apply it is how we choose to respond when someone asks us for help. People asked Jesus for help all the time and his response was consistent regardless of the request. What might our world or our relationships look like if ours was too? Let's dig into that que...

We start our journey to God Knows Where with a look at one of the most profound splits The Church ever made from Jesus, a split we've made in just the last couple hundred years, and one that, if we could repair it, could bring us all closer to Jesus. Today's episode, " Personal Jesus ," is the first in God Knows Where's first series, "I Didn't Say That." Whi...

We continue our journey to God Knows Where with an exploration of what belief even means. Is belief the same as faith? Are either of them like trust? What does Jesus mean when we read him saying "Believe?" I'll try to answer these questions here. Today's episode, "Faith Off" is the second in God Knows Where's first series, "I Didn't Say That." Whil...

Welcome to God Knows Where , a recovering pastor's journey to keep up with Jesus after leaving the Church. Host Brett Harris walks you through his decision to step away from the pulpit and how he came to terms with so much of the Church having so little to do with Jesus. He introduces God Knows Where's first series, "I Didn't Say That," an exploration of topics and ideas t...
