There's an enormous chasm between evangelical thought/praxis, and the actual teachings of Jesus found in the Gospels. In this episode, we ask: how is it possible to sway so many evangelical traditions away from Jesus? We peel back the layers to reveal the methods that shape and form malformed beliefs, before describing the impact on evangelical culture. One of the primary tools used is the widespread adoption of conspiracy theories. Jared Stacy joins to share his insights on the ways conspiracy theories are entangled with evangelicalism. We then pivot to name how the reliance on conspiracy theories shapes evangelical culture with guest Dr. Ed Ng. We discuss how the religious right is shaped to stay rooted in fear as a key to guiding belief systems. “…when it’s ancient we call it a legend, when it’s modern we call it a conspiracy theory. – Jared Stacy” Episode 3 – Show Notes (00:00) – Introduction (05:30) – Jared Stacy on a history of conspiracy theory.

“Find the Stories to Leave For Good.” Welcome to the Faith in a Fresh Vibe podcast! There's space for you at the table. Receive this invitation to listen and learn, bemoan and curse, celebrate and liberate, around ideas towards deconstructing and decolonizing the Christian faith. This is Episode 1 in a serial series called: Farewell Evangelicalism. In this series we will interrogate the main pillars of formation in the evangelical tradition to answer the question: is evangelicalism still a legitimate expression of the Christian faith? And if not, what would it take to see more people leave the tradition? We give the insight and the tools to interrogate the movement and identify its malformed formation. It’s the first quarter of 2025, which is important to name, because depending on which side of the political spectrum you're on, and which country you're from, you're either in shock of the political upheaval dumped on your country, or you everything is trending your way. Amidst waves of confusion is a simple truth: the current state wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for the unwavering support from white evangelicals. We ask the question: would society be better off if more people left evangelicalism? If you're on the fence about that, this series will help, as we offer tools and pathways for more folks to say, Farewell Evangelicalism! Episode 1 – Show Notes (00:00) – Introduction (01:00) – Setting the Table (01:50) – Saying Farewell to Evangelicalism (02:40) – Who is this podcast for? (04:45) – Introducing your host, Rohadi!

Episode 2 in this serial series called: Farewell Evangelicalism is here. In this episdoe we begin to peel back to layers of evangelicalism to make sense of how it’s become the broken and malformed expression it is today. When did the wheels fall off? When did evangelicals become white nationalists? It hasn’t always been this way. To get to the ‘how' evangelicals became associated with various monkers like white nationalism, we must develop cultural context, garnering information to begin naming specific components in the movement that produce harm to the neighborhood, city, and nation, and of course to those stuck within the confines of the four church walls. The hope for this episode is to help give name to cultural moments when the evil and broken pieces in evangelicalism emerged so more folks can make connections to their own church or belief systems. We go back into time connect the dots between political movements, the use of fear to sway evangelicals, and ways evangelicals have casually sided with white supremacy to inform their beliefs. Episode 2 – Show Notes (00:00) – Introduction (00:28) – Setting the Scenes (01:35) – When evangelicals lost the plot. (05:30) – Introducing Scott Okomoto including his time teaching at Aszuza Pacific. (09:00) – When evangelicals swung hard right. (10:20) – How white was APU? Explaining culture and culture shifts. (14:00) – From Bush to Obama and evangelical militancy. (19:45) – Unpacking MAGA. (26:00) – Outro and Intro to Dr. Marlena Graves (20:45) – Unpacking the connections between evangelicals, Republicanism, and white supremacy. (26:15) – History: Moments in the 20th century when evangelicals married Republicans. (39:00) – Connecting the Religious Right movement. (42:50) – Talking about the strategy behind preserving white supremacy. (54:00) – Outro and wrap. Featuring your host Rohadi Nagassar (rohadi.com) and: Scott Okomoto – Writer/Podcaster R Scott Okamoto is a writer and musician from Los Angeles. He is passionate about AAPI identity and politics, fly fishing, sex and sexuality, cooking, and religious deconstruction. Scot is the creator and host of the Chapel Probation Podcast and the author of Asian American Apostate: Losing Religion and Finding Myself at an Evangelical University, published by Lake Drive Books. Dr. Marlena Graves – Professor/Author Marlena received her M.Div. from Northeastern Seminary in Rochester, New York and his pursuing her PhD in American Culture Studies at Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, OH where she is researching the influence American culture has on Evangelicals' view of immigration, race, and poverty.

Jesse Peters of Eco Firma may not be a user of cannabis products, but he was born into it. Officials found five kilos (about 11 pounds) under his crib. Dad took the big felony (which, through a family connection somehow mysteriously disappeared) and Mom got a misdemeanor. It was so ubiquitous Jesse was in middle school before he knew not everybody had a pot plant in their backyard! With that incredible background, plus careers in firefighting and being a Marine gunnery sergeant, Jesse has seen a lot and he’s quite confident in seeing around the corner. He knew the cannabis industry would be legalized and began to prepare for the eventuality. And he’s an organizer, convincing people in the industry and the government agencies to work together to create a climate of professionalism and education which respects the legitimate use of the plant. That’s why he believes the Oregon model is going to be adopted by more and more states. So what’s around the next corner? Among other things, recognizing that cannabis is a safe plant and treat it as such, including labeling. Getting the banking industry comfortable with handling cannabis business. And getting cannabis de-scheduled completely to keep it from being owned by Big Pharma. Eco Firma: http://www.ecofirmafarms.com/ Was a firefighter and gunnery sergeant in the Marines prior to the growing business I was BORN into the cannabis business. There were five keys (kilos) under my crib when the law came. My Dad got a felony and my Mom a misdemeanor. I didn’t know until middle school that not EVERYONE had a pot plant in their backyard. We started as a collective farm with nine locations Politics is huge and getting huger. If you’re not involved, you’re on the backend of the slope I’m not a user! Being a cash business is a tremendous drain on time. You can’t borrow money if your crop goes bad; your ability to grow and breath is gone The industry is growing so fast, you can’t take any money off the table We should all help each other in this business because we are not the REAL competition. When the real competition shows up, we’re going to look at each other and say, “Let’s merge” Big Pharma, Big Alcohol and Big Tobacco are all just watching right now California and Florida are the two big swing states right now Cannabis needs to be DE-scheduled, not Schedule 2. That will only make it owned by Big Pharma The learning curve and high fees are going to make larger facilities very expensive Packaging is a nightmare; rules keep changing daily You can’t let vendors know what you do Oregon has the BEST program right now, creating the model for all to follow Oregon and Washington should be THE big growers and should be a huge export crop because of water rights issues in Northern California
