383 - Deconstructing as a Parent, Not Knowing What to Tell Your Kids

Why is it not this simple?  Why is "not knowing any better"  a legitimate excuse?  Or is it?  Is the "absentee father" even a black problem?  Joey discusses these questions with three black friends (regulars on the show) and hears two of their stories of not being cut out for drug dealing, one of them losing an incredible career opportunity due to his color, and one heart-breaking story of divorce, child support and jail time.  The three also reflect on  the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and what he means to them personally.  We also talk about when white people try to talk "black things" to black people, including Joey trying to talk basketball to black men he's meeting for the first time.  Get The Bear Feed (exclusive podcast for patrons of the show)Robbie Madison / Web / InstagramStoy Prioleau / FB / Music (Riggy Roc - where ever you stream your music)Antonio Seabrook / FBJoey Svendsen / Instagram / Twitter / Facebook / E-mailPodcast SocialsPWNA Discussion Facebook Group / YouTubee-mail the PWNA team here.Thanks //  Derek Minor for theme song of PWNA and Joel Hamilton / Joel Hamilton + friends for music in this episode.

Maybe the best New Year's Resolution one can make: Get good friendships.Elizabeth Gillespie, licensed therapist of 11 years, focusses her practices on helping people find healing for trauma, through healthy human connection. She did a Tedx Talks (2022) that outlines the scientific data behind this bold statement she made in this episode: “You are probably going to die sooner, faster, and be far less healthy if you don’t have close relationships.”You heard her.  It’s a matter of survival, folks.We talk through this innate need and discuss why finding healthy relationships is so challenging for people. She outlines the ingredients of life-giving relationships, explains why giving someone their space is usually not a good thing,  and differentiates between having a healthy need for people and being co-dependent.  So, eat better, exercise, keep track of that cholesterol, get regular mammograms and maintain good relationships with people. Your life literally depends on it.

379 - Entering the Holidays for the First Time without Your Brother

Twenty-seven years since the last time they hung as friends (and classmates) at James Island High, Stoy Prioleau, Antonio "Hype" Seabrook and Joey Svendsen caught up on episode 361 - My Childhood Friends [the Black ones].  As kids, they never processed together things like racism, privilege, systemic racism, what it's like to be black, and what it's like to be white.  As adults, they reflect on their childhoods with a lot more insight and life experience.  In this episode, the conversation continues as they reflect on being a kid at Christmas as a middle class white kid with dad at home and as a black kid growing up with a single mother trying to keep food on the table.   Joey rakes it in annually while Stoy and "Hype" tell some "Christmas morning heartbreak" stories.  It was pretty common in the black community for their peers to get no gifts at all on Christmas.  What was it like as a black kid, when all the best toys (G.I.

Joe, He-Man) you play with are depictions of white people?   Different entertainment, different food, even different looking Christmas Trees, Stoy was always eager to come back home and report on the lavish Christmases he experienced in the families of the white girls he was hanging with at the time.  Stoy and "Hype" also share how they reflect on their absent fathers during the holidays.Love the show?  We would love your <a href="https://pwna.supercast.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">support</a> as a patron. *All patrons have optional access to the Bear W/ Community. <a href="https://bearw.me/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">About</a> / <a href="https://vimeo.com/707643030" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Video</a> / <a href="https://pwna.supercast.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Join</a> On Today's episode: Stoy Prioleau / <a href="https://www.facebook.com/stoy.prioleau" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">FB</a> / <a href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/riggy-roc/1497700905" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Music</a> (Riggy Roc - where ever you stream your music) Antonio Seabrook / <a href="https://www.facebook.com/adseabrook" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">FB</a> Joey Svendsen (host) / <a href="https://www.instagram.com/joeysvendsen/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Instagram</a> / <a href="https://twitter.com/joeysvendsen" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Twitter</a> / <a href="https://www.facebook.com/joey.svendsen/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Facebook</a> / <a href="mailto:joeysvendsen@gmail.com">E-mail</a> Podcast Socials <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/PWNAtalk" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">PWNA Discussion Facebook Group</a> / <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh2Ivn-0Pw9nEYEeeJrloTA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">YouTube</a> e-mail the PWNA team <a href="mailto:PWNAcontact@gmail.com">here</a>.

378 - Christmas For Me and My Friends ("the Black Ones" Part II)

Becoming a Christian as a 15-year old, KJ-52's career started when the music industry was nothing like it is now.  From the early days of opening up for acts like Tribe Called Quest and appearing on a radio show of Dj Khaled's (before he was DJ Khaled) to finding some unexpected traction in the Christian music industry with his letter to Eminem in the song "Dear Slim," Joey and KJ-52 not only reminisce about the old school Christian Rap and Tooth and Nail Records days, they talk a little faith and mental health.  KJ-52 (real name, Jonah Sorrentino) is also now a full-time Pastor.  Go support his newest album, "Still Standing" (Kickstarter), inspired by the havoc Hurricane Ian has had on him and his people in Florida.Love the show?  We would love your support as a patron.*All patrons have optional access to the Bear W/ Community.About / Video / JoinOn Today's episode:KJ-52 / Kickstarter / Instagram / WebsiteJoey Svendsen (host) / Instagram / Twitter / Facebook / E-mailPodcast SocialsPWNA Discussion Facebook Group / YouTubee-mail the PWNA team here.All music on this episode appears courtesy of KJ-52 and is from his newest album, "Still Standing."Thanks //  Derek Minor for theme song of PWNA on all other episodes.

377 - Christian Rap, "Still Standing" w/ KJ-52

Brian Zahnd

John Mark McMillan

[this episode originally aired on 10/10/20]John Mark McMillan and Joey Svendsen enjoy their time with Pastor and Author Brian Zahnd, asking him a little about everything. What does Brian Zahnd think of the POTUS (Donald Trump) and if asked, would he serve on his spiritual advisement board? Brian Zahnd believes strongly in the church. He points out the problems with both the "Christian right" and "Christian left," highlighting how Jesus wouldn’t serve either of their agendas; because frankly, He has his own. The church, he says, is a part of the world that's “already changed by Christ.” Until we let this sink in, Zahnd concludes that Christians will continue to seek hope in what their political party can accomplish, none of this having anything to do with the more important Kingdom work we are to value above all. Brian and John Mark also have an interesting take on why many artists are disinterested in politics. And of course, we get into some theology: atonement theories, Christian universalism, the gospel in its fullness.

31 - The Masturbation Episode

“It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” “Deck the Halls,” and “Holly Jolly Christmas” for many, but for others, it’s nothing but a “Blue. blue, blue blue Christmas.”  Many stories of grief have been shared on this podcast (Episodes 21,22,35,39,122,150) so I wanted to process the in’s and out’s of grief with a professional, especially pertaining to the holidays.  I sat down with a local therapist here in Charleston SC  for us to glean more understanding and guidance about interacting with those who are grieving.  What are the best ways to be supportive?  Are there times when it’s appropriate to push a bit?  What should one say (or not say)? There’s also some helpful information directed towards those listening who are currently grieving during the holidays.  Merry Christmas and we remember those who do not find it merry at all.  Instagram account: www.instagram.com/PWNApodCurrent DonorSee: https://donorsee.com/pwnahelpsGet notifications each time we start raising money to get more information on our current opportunity to “save the day” for team humanity.

208 - A Practical Discussion on Grieving During the Holidays & the future of PWNA Podcast

Trisha Wilkerson

Tricia speaks as a woman and Pastor’s wife at Mars Hill.  Mark Driscoll’s power and confidence drew her in, motivating her to give him the benefit of the doubt for years as she “managed Driscoll secrets,” given her close relationship with Grace Driscoll (Mark’s wife).  On the podcast, she gives her best shot at assessing what’s going on cognitively in Mark Driscoll’s head.  Now, years later, she misses her dear friend, Grace, desperately desires reconciliation with the Driscoll family, has both fond memories and dark reflections on being a part of the community and ministry at Mars Hill Church and has moved on as a stronger woman, helping others to do the same.To learn more about what Tricia (and husband, Mike) are up to, visit:https://redemptiongroups.com/There’s also a podcast!https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/redemption-walk/id1220060117?mt=2

Christian Universalism

Is there just as much evidence in the bible for Universalism as there is for heaven and hell, hell being a place for eternal conscious torment?  What joy would it be to find in heaven that God saves everyone?  What if the Christians “rule the nations,” but every one else is happy as a peach?  Wes Fahlenkamp, a Pastor With No Answers listener, author of Jesus and Hitler, writer of the blog The Biggest Jesus, reads and believes in the same bible as the church, finds Universalism to be the most logical conclusion to the bible’s teaching on the afterlife.biggestjesus.com

101 - Christian Universalism isn’t Heresy?

Confession with hopefully good motives, I really had a bit of a heavy heart listening to episode 155 of Pastor With No Answers.  I hope it comes across respectful.

155.5 - I Am Appalled By the Christian Conversation Had on Episode 155

Chip Judd

On this episode, Pastors Joey and Chip discuss infidelity, falling in love, divorce, and marital sex.  It gets a little crazy.   And, oh yeah, Jared and Joey revel in Clemson's National Championship like a couple of giddy kids on Christmas morning.

67 - Falling in Love, Porn, Affairs, Getting Kinky in Marriage (w/ Chip Judd)

Five questions, two minutes to answer, two guests appearing separately.  Jack Hoey and Dan Koch tackle these five questions.  What are the chances that God isn’t omnipotent and why?Was the type of slavery in the Old Testament God-ordained?Are Christians persecuted in America?With Romans 13 as the context, does God choose the President of the USA or do the American people?Is “God” being referred to as a “Father” in the bible because the male-dominant cultural lenses of that day or is “He” just better served and worshipped as a dude?

157 - Biblical Slavery, God is a Man, and Christian Persecution in America

Chip Judd (30 years counseling experience) and Ellen Mauro (co-host of Depolarize! Podcast) debate and discuss the risks of spending alone time with the opposite gender in date-like scenarios, car rides, closed doors.  Is this playing with fire?  Or is this a dated policy that churches need to abort from so females can stop feeling like they are merely hot-bodies, dangerous, predatory, male-slaying dragons.Depolarize!

140 - “Billy Graham Rule” Dissected

When it comes to the death of those who never accepted God’s plan of salvation through Jesus, our two guests agree on one thing.  People are not eternally consciously tortured.  While Chris Date (Rethinking Hell Podcast) believes these people will never see heaven but will rather be destroyed, Wes Fahlenkamp (author of Jesus and Hitler) believes that Jesus saves everyone.  Pull up a chair and grab a snack.Chris:  rethinkinghell.comWes:  biggestjesus.com

106 - Christian Universalism vs. Annihilationism

This discussion with Jack Hoey III is based on a documentary (see below) that proposes the possibility of an evil spirit (Kundalini) infiltrating the church and actually be mistaken as the third member of the trinity (Holy Spirit).

19 - What Role Has Nephilim Played in Civilization?  (w/ Matt Carter and LA Marzulli)

Dan Koch

Chris Date

What does it say about the character of God If there’s multitudes of people who will taste death without ever having an opportunity to be redeemed, only to be punished forever?  How can God really love those whom He doesn’t reach out to?  If an earthly father had the ability to rescue all of his kids but only rescues his favorites, wouldn’t we all call him a bad father?  Chris Date (Rethinking Hell) and Dan Koch (Depolarize! Podcast and Reconstruct Podcast) see God very differently and during this episode, talk through their differences in the context of Calvinism, the likelihood of this doctrine being true and the implications if it is.
