Unlike J. Lo, we ain't hustlers
Ego isn't all bad, actually
Cognitive dissonance and repressed questions
the mysterious side of God 
Questions pastors aren't supposed to ask 
an angry God who kills his son so he can put up with us 
space, grace, and reconsidering the prodigal son 
how to doubt well 
When the Jesus who all of a sudden feels new and exciting is also a Jesus your not sure your church community can accept 
Why is God better than we think?

A church Chad helped plant and lead had become one of the most influential megachurches in the greater Denver area. He'd arrived at the pinnacle of success. When all of a sudden, questions he'd dodged asking for years began to surface, ultimately leading to him stepping away from his role at the church to de-and-reconstruct his faith. If you've ever felt like the questions you have about Christianity are too big or too scandalous for the churches around you, I REALLY hope you watch this interview.
