Our First Live Podcast: The Future of Methodism at #ST19
The recent Spirit and Truth Conference was a great experience! The worship was amazing and we heard from powerful speakers and preachers.

I recently attended a conference called Voice of the Prophets where I had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Randy Clark and Dr. Mark Chironna. I asked them to speak about the topic of prophecy. We’ve included this interview, followed by some of our own reflections, in our newest podcast. You can listen to…
Recently on the Plain Truth Podcast we tackled the question: Is the Bible sexist? As the tag line to the title suggests, “An answer(sort of) for Susanna.” We didn’t really come to a concise conclusion. Personally, I might be tempted to joke it’s because asking three academics to come to a concise conclusion about anything…
Rudy Rasmus is an extraordinary pastor who serves St. John’s United Methodist Church in Houston, Texas. He was kind enough to sit down with us for an interview on the podcast, and he told an amazing and emotional story of God’s love and redemption in his life. Plus, you get to hear Scott Kisker say something…
We recently had the pleasure of interviewing two very interesting people associated with charismatic expressions of Christianity. The first, Marion Hayes, is an Episcopalian who has written her Doctor of Ministry project on how to lead and pastor in the midst of an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Her interest in this subject is based…

You can check out Anthony’s blog here and Larry’s blog here. None of us had met Larry before, and it was a joy to get to know…
Okay… so the title is a little ambitious… And yes, we mix up forth-telling and foretelling, BUT COME ON THEY SOUND JUST ALIKE! Anyway, in this episode, we take on prophecy, both biblical and contemporary. Let us know what you think. You can find the podcast here on iTunes, and here on Player F.M. And…
In this episode we take on the topic of revival. What is it? What has it looked like historically? Why is it breaking out in so many parts of the world, but not in North America? You can find the podcast here on iTunes. Otherwise, click here. We mention a couple of resources in this episode.…
Episode 2 of the Plain Truth podcast is up. We talk about the importance of community and authentic relationships, and particularly the practice of confessing our sins to one another. All of this and more are part of the discussion in the new book by Kevin Watson and Scott Kisker, The Band Meeting, available here as…
