Are we shaped more by nature or nurture? Is biology or culture stronger in determining our choices? Joseph Holmes and Nathan Clarkson discuss this topic, with Evolutionary psychologist Dr. Steve Stewart-Williams joining for the discussion, on this latest episode.

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 10 of Echoes of Eden, Tim and Steve continue through the Noah narrative and uncover one of the most profound themes in Genesis: recreation.The flood story is not simply about destruction—it is about a God who remembers, restores, and recommissions humanity. As the waters recede, Genesis intentionally echoes the language of creation itself, revealing Noah as a kind of “new Adam” and pointing ahead to Christ and the renewal of all things. This episode explores: The powerful parallels between Genesis 1 and Noah's story Why Noah is presented as a “new Adam” The deeper meaning of the flood as cleansing and recreation What it means that “God remembered Noah” Why the flood changes God's relationship with humanity The movement from judgment to compassion The covenant with Noah and all creation The symbolism of the rainbow as reconciliation and peace How patience and faith are deeply connected This conversation wrestles honestly with difficult questions while revealing a deeply hopeful truth:God does not abandon His creation.Even in the midst of chaos, grief, and human failure, His mercy endures forever.
Carrie's story feels like a real, behind-the-scenes look at what it actually takes to grow beyond "just" editing.She talks about how she went from editing simple interview shows to landing a major role with the Legal Media Network—all sparked by a note in the Podcast Editors Club Facebook group with a pitch. Carrie didn't wait until she felt “ready.” Instead, she kept saying yes to opportunities, learning as she went, and building her confidence through experience rather than formal training.As her career progressed, she naturally moved beyond editing into storytelling, production, and eventually leadership. Now, she's overseeing large-scale operations, managing teams, and helping shape content for hundreds of clients. Through it all, she keeps coming back to the same idea: growth comes from being willing to figure things out, even when you're unsure. Her journey is a reminder that skills build on each other, and if you stay curious and open to stretching yourself, you can turn a small starting point into something much bigger.Key moments:Carrie secured her current role by proactively pitching herselfShe transitioned into narrative storytelling and full-scale production workHer experience shows that editing skills can evolve into broader storytelling and leadership capabilitiesShe now oversees production for nearly 200 clients, managing teams, workflows, and content strategyA major success factor has been willingness to learn on the fly and take on challenges without waiting for formal trainingResources mentioned in the show:Carrie Caulfield, Director of Production, The Legal Media Network@TheCarrieCaulfield (IG, Threads)https://carriecaulfield.notion.siteOur Editor for this episode:This episode of the Podcast Editors Mastermind was edited by Alejandro Ramirez.

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 9 of Echoes of Eden, Tim and Steve continue through Genesis, tracing the widening ripple effects of sin—and the surprising persistence of God's mercy.From genealogies to the mysterious Nephilim, and into the beginning of Noah's story, this episode wrestles with some of the most difficult and often misunderstood passages in Scripture.What happens when a society is built on violence and rebellion? And how does God respond when creation begins to unravel?This conversation explores the tension between divine judgment and divine compassion—and reveals a God who refuses to abandon His world. In this episode: How sin spreads across generations and shapes entire cultures Why the “city” becomes a symbol of rebellion and disorder The purpose and meaning behind biblical genealogies Who the Nephilim are—and why this strange passage matters What it means that God is “grieved” by human corruption Can God change His mind? Understanding divine immutability Why the flood narrative is about covenant, not just destruction How Noah represents a turning point—and a new beginning This episode doesn't shy away from the hard questions. Instead, it leans into them—revealing a deeper story of grace, restoration, and God's unrelenting commitment to His creation.

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 8 of Echoes of Eden, Tim and Steve explore one of the most misunderstood stories in Genesis: Cain and Abel.Was this story really about two offerings—or something much deeper?This episode uncovers the destructive power of envy, the danger of unchecked sin, and the profound question at the center of the text:“Am I my brother's keeper?”Through the lens of Genesis 4, we discover how this ancient story still speaks directly into modern life, relationships, justice, and the call to love our neighbor. In this episode: Why Cain and Abel is not mainly about offerings The difference between sins and the deeper power of sin How envy, bitterness, and resentment distort the human heart What “sin is crouching at the door” really means Why reconciliation matters to God The connection between loving God and loving your neighbor How this story challenges injustice, division, and indifference today This is a powerful conversation about repentance, restoration, and becoming people who reflect the way of Christ.
Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Echoes of Eden series, Tim and Steve continue their journey through Genesis 3—moving beyond the fall itself into its deeper consequences, surprising grace, and the first glimpse of the Gospel.What actually happens after humanity's disobedience? Is this story about punishment… or something else entirely?As the narrative unfolds, we encounter the protoevangelium—the first announcement of Good News—pointing forward to Christ's ultimate victory over sin and death. Along the way, we wrestle with some big theological questions: Did God punish Adam and Eve—or reveal the consequences of their choices? What really changed in humanity after the fall? How has the doctrine of original sin shaped the Gospel we preach today? Drawing from the writings of Ephrem the Syrian, this episode also explores a breathtaking vision of Paradise—not just as a lost place, but as a present reality and a future hope fulfilled in Christ.This conversation invites you to rethink the story: From fear to love. From punishment to restoration. From exile… to the promise of returning home.
Send us Fan MailIn Episode 6 of Echoes of Eden, Tim and Steve Stewart step into Genesis 3—the pivotal and often misunderstood story of “The Fall.”Rather than treating it as a simple explanation for sin, this conversation explores the deeper human experience behind the text: temptation, mistrust, sorrow, and the fracture of what is meant to be whole.They unpack how temptation operates on multiple levels—physical desire, aesthetic appeal, and intellectual distortion—and how subtle shifts in how we perceive God's words lead us away from trust.At the same time, this episode challenges listeners to reconsider how much weight we give to Genesis 3 compared to Genesis 1 and 2—where the repeated declaration is that creation is good.And yet, even here—in the origin of brokenness— God's mercy is already present.This is not just a story of loss. It is also the beginning of redemption.
Send us Fan MailWhy are there two creation accounts in Genesis?In this episode, Tim and Steve explore Genesis 2 and reveal how these complementary accounts give us a fuller understanding of who God is—both transcendent and deeply personal.Rather than repetition, Genesis presents a layered story: a God who speaks galaxies into existence, and a God who forms humanity with care and breathes life into them.This conversation unpacks what it means to live in “garden life”—a life of communion with God—and how themes like ruach (breath/spirit), poverty of spirit, and human identity point us back to our original design.
If listeners are quitting your podcast in the first five minutes, this episode is for you. In this annual ‘podcast pet peeves' roundup, I asked my audience what makes them bail on a show— and they did not hold back. ParticipantsYou'll hear from Kim Newlove (The Pharmacist's Voice, Perrysburg Podcast), Steve Stewart (podcast editor extraordinaire), Todd ‘the Gator' (Guardian Down Roundtable, Lessons in the Rear View), and York (Welcome to Earth Stories) as they unpack the habits that drive them nuts: from bad audio and buried leads to ad overload, lazy interview questions, sloppy terminology, and more. You'll walk away knowing exactly what turns listeners off - and how to fix it. I'll also share my own take on ads, monetization, and why a little creativity can still set your show apart in 2026The Most Popular Pet PeevesToo many/poorly placed ads (especially mid-roll and early heavy ad blocks)Not getting to the point / burying the lead / unclear episode directionLack of preparation (hosts winging it, talking in circles, not prepping guests)Sloppy language and terminology (“podcast” vs “episode,” “podcasting” vs “podcasts,” RSS vs not)Wasting listener time with meta-chatter, overlong intros, and “Tell me about yourself” questionsI do this question every year, and as you might imagine, this list doesn't change much.

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 4 of Echoes of Eden, Tim and Steve Stewart return to Genesis 1—this time exploring it through the lens of Celtic Christianity.Rather than reading the creation account as a strict sequence of events, they invite us to see it as a meditation on the ongoing mystery of creation—one that reveals the nature of God and our place within it.This episode offers a fresh perspective on how God is revealed not only through Scripture, but through creation itself, calling us into a deeper awareness of His presence in all things.In this episode: A Celtic perspective on Genesis and creation The idea that God reveals Himself through Scripture and creation Exploring the themes of: Light and divine essence Wildness and creative power Fruitfulness and generosity Harmony and relational love Creatureliness and sensory awareness Rest and the rhythm of renewal What it means to be made in the image of God How the Gospel calls us back to our true identityConnect with Impact Nations:

Send a textIn this episode of the Echoes of Eden series, Tim Stewart and Steve Stewart explore the opening lines of the Bible and the profound framework they create for understanding the story of creation.Genesis 1:1–2 introduces themes that echo throughout Scripture: God bringing order out of chaos, filling emptiness with purpose, and preparing a world designed for abundance and blessing.Tim and Steve examine the poetic structure of the Genesis account, the ancient cultural context in which it was written, and why the biblical creation narrative stands apart from other origin stories of the ancient Near East.They also explore how Eden represents the material blessings of God and His presence among His people, setting the stage for the entire biblical story.In this episode• Why Genesis 1:1–2 is the key to understanding the creation narrative • The meaning of “formless and void” in the Hebrew text • How Genesis functions as poetry, theology, and cultural contrast • The difference between the biblical creation account and surrounding myths • The significance of Eden as abundance and divine presence • How the creation story foreshadows the larger story of IsraelLearn more about Impact NationsWebsite: https://www.impactnations.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/impact.nations Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/impactnationsministries YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ImpactNations#Genesis #BibleStudy #ChristianPodcast #FaithAndTheology #EchoesOfEden #BiblicalTeaching #ChristianFaith #OldTestament #CreationNarrative #BiblePodcast #ImpactNations

Send a textIn this special replay of our LIVE YouTube Ask Me Anything episode, Tim Stewart and Steve Stewart answered your questions in real time — beginning with a thoughtful and practical discussion about sharing the Gospel in Muslim communities.Broadcast from two different studios (Albuquerque and Wilmington, NC), this wide-ranging conversation opened with ministry wisdom and powerful stories from decades of experience in Africa, India, and other predominantly Muslim regions.Rather than engaging in apologetics or religious comparison, Steve explained why he has always focused exclusively on presenting Jesus — and how that approach led to remarkable openness, unexpected encounters, and even Imams becoming followers of Christ.In this episode:Practical insights for sharing Jesus with MuslimsWhy apologetics and comparison were not his approachPowerful stories from Kenya, India, and the Somali borderWhat happened after preaching at a central mosqueHow the Gospel created peace without confrontationThe difference between conversion and encounterWhy simply presenting Jesus carried transformative powerThis episode reminded us that the Gospel was never about winning arguments — it was about introducing people to the living Christ.Connect with Impact Nations
The Podcast Superfriends welcome podcast editor and community leader Steve Stewart to discuss the craft and business of podcast editing. Steve shares how he went from financial blogger and podcaster in the FinCon community to a full‑time editor after well-known bloggers asked him to “just handle everything after we hit record.” He explains how early tools like Audacity and basic mics evolved into today's ecosystem of AI-assisted workflows, transcription tools, and plugins, and why efficiency and smart processes are key to profitability. The group explores what “podcast editor” really means today—often extending into producer, manager, and strategist roles including show notes, media host management, dynamic ad insertion, and client coaching. Steve stresses niching down (his is personal finance), delivering excellent customer service, and getting clients through referrals, in‑person events, and industry conferences. He also describes his work building the Podcast Editors Club and Podcast Editor Academy to train and support editors worldwide.

Are Podcast Chapters a good thing?Most people would say "Of course they are".Steve has reservations, mostly because chapters help listeners more easily skip ads, and that's not a good thing for clients who have ads in their show. However, Podcast Chapters are useful. And very cool...especially when you hear about what can be done with Chapter Images (see chapter #11 of this episode)!In our conversation with Daniel J. Lewis, we talk through all the ins and outs of podcast chapters, their benefits, and how they can transform your client's show into a more interactive experience for your audience.Key takeaways:Podcast chapters enhance navigation and engagementThey allow for additional multimedia elements, enriching the listener experienceProperly structured chapters can improve retention and manage ad placements effectivelyKey Moments (aka: Chapters):(00:00) Daniel J.

In this episode, I circle back to a classic question:What do you wish you'd known when you started your podcast that you know now?This is a question I've asked in the past (shout-out to episode 768 back in 2021!), and while I received close to 20 answers then, participation was a bit lighter this time around. But don't worry—the quality makes up for the quantity!Featured Guests & Their InsightsI'm joined by two long-time contributors—Kim Newlove and Steve Stewart—who share powerfully honest responses about their podcasting journeys.Kim Newlove:Kim shares 12 things she wishes she'd known when starting her podcasts, The Pharmacist's Voice and the Perrysburg Podcast. She talks about everything from being able to change your podcast's “why” as its mission evolves, to discovering the right gear (hello, Shure SM7B!), figuring out realistic production schedules, mastering research and writing demands, making effective use of Canva for episode artwork, choosing media hosts wisely, the importance of newsletters, the value of trailers, and more. She emphasizes learning as you go and assures new podcasters that it's totally okay to fill in gaps as you build your parachute on the way down!Steve Stewart:Steve reflects on how much he wishes he'd known how to edit for content when he first began his show in 2010. His early episodes would benefit from a bit more polish, and he shares how improving his editing skills made a huge difference not just for his own podcast, but eventually for others through his work at the Podcast Editors Academy. Steve also offers an excellent resource for anyone looking for a podcast editor.My Takeaways & Thoughts:I share my own lessons learned—including the importance of setting aside regular time for learning new skills, asking for direct feedback from listeners, and being willing to adapt and evolve your show as needed. I also discuss the value of constructive criticism and how it helps me grow as a podcaster.Resources & Mentions:Kim's Podcasts: The Pharmacist's Voice and Perrysburg Podcast Steve's Podcast Editing Resource: Find an Editor School of Podcasting: schoolofpodcasting.com (use coupon code “listenr” for a discount!)

We're back with a brand-new series on the Impact Nations Podcast—this time, digging deep into the resurrection of Jesus.Tim and Steve Stewart kick things off with the Gospel of John and explore how three often-overlooked details—the folded face cloth, the angels inside the tomb, and Jesus being mistaken as a gardener—are actually rich with theological meaning and profound relevance for our lives today.
Welcome back! In this episode, I tackle this month's big question: "How long did it take you to bring your podcast from an idea in your head to execution—and how long to find your audience?"I share stories from guest contributors and reflect on my own process after launching nearly 40 different shows over the years. Todd the Gator kicks things off describing how his gaming show “Guardian Downcast” was born, with community members pulling him into hosting after another podcast called it quits. He recalls the whirlwind of learning what a podcast actually is, how to publish it, and how long it took their show to fully find its identity—hint: half their existence!Steve Stewart joins in, sharing that his first podcast took a full year to go from idea to launch. Facing the usual fears and uncertainty, Steve found accountability and guidance with a coach, which made all the difference. He also talks about the slow climb to finding an audience and how connecting with similar podcasts really helped boost those early numbers.Chris shares a personal journey that traces 20 years of tinkering before launching his current show “Cool Cars with Chris.” After plenty of experimenting and previous podcasts, he finally returned to his passion for cars and found a format that felt true to himself.I reflect on my own timelines, explaining that those first launches tend to take much longer thanks to the steep learning curve. Once I got the hang of things, I could launch new shows in a day or even a weekend. That said, good planning is key. I break down a suggested six-week timeline for new podcasters—everything from concept and audience research to equipment, recording, editing, feedback, and hosting. Trust me, the more time you spend planning in the beginning, the less time you'll be spending fixing things later.We also dig into the importance of feedback. Whether you're getting listeners' reactions or setting up listening parties to watch how your core audience responds, feedback is what helps you refine and grow your show.I wrap up with tips for making your podcast stand out, advice for building a website and collecting email addresses, and a reminder that your launch strategy matters as much as your content. Plus, a quick book recommendation for anyone working on their visuals—and a little movie review, just for fun!As Always - It DependsIf your podcast is "just for fun" then maybe you don't need to spend so much time thinking about how your show will be different. You do need to check and make sure someone else is not using your name. Check out the Podcast Launch ChecklistWhen It Comes to Podcast MarketingAt it's basic form, podcast marketing strategies start with knowing who your audience is (specifically) and going to where they are. Then make friends with them, and finally tell them about your show.

This week, we revisit a listener favorite: a deeply enriching conversation with theologian and author Dr. Bradley Jersak. Together with Tim and Steve Stewart, Dr. Jersak unpacks the meaning, history, and spiritual depth of liturgy in Christian tradition—and how it still speaks powerfully today.
As we gear up for our new series The Other Side of the Cross, we're revisiting a listener favorite—Episode 8-23. In this powerful conversation, Tim interviews Impact Nations founder Steve Stewart about his book Pursuing the Mystery of Christ.This episode challenges the fear-based gospel many of us were raised with, inviting us to explore the beauty, paradox, and eternal presence of Christ. From rethinking the Incarnation to reframing the gospel as a mystery to be pursued—not a formula to master—this is one of our most spiritually rich episodes.
Outsourcing for your podcast is a bit like dating—you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince (or princess). This episode gets into the nitty-gritty of hiring help for your podcast, featuring stories from our listeners who've been there, done that, and got the t-shirt (or the horror story).Kim Newlove shares her success with hiring a coach and how that investment paid off in spades. On the flip side, York's experience is a cautionary tale about the perils of hiring without doing proper research. It's a mixed bag of outcomes, and we're here for all of it. We also explore the broader theme of investing in your podcast and the balance between saving money and getting quality help. After all, sometimes you gotta spend a little to save a lot—like time, sanity, and the integrity of your podcast. Tune in for laughs, lessons learned, and a whole lot of real talk on the do's and don'ts of podcast hiring.Need Help Finding an Editor?If you need help finding an editor use THIS LINK which will go to Steve Stewart who co-runs the Podcast Editor Academy and he will send your information to people in that group. Takeaways:Hiring help for your podcast can feel like tossing cash into a bonfire, trust me on that.Not every graphic designer is a wizard; sometimes they just wave a magic wand and call it a day.If you think a cheap website designer will give you a Gucci site, you're dreaming, my friend.Outsourcing editing can be a lifesaver, especially if your vacation plans involve avoiding the editing cave.Remember, folks, you either pay in time or in money, so choose wisely, even if it hurts.Always check the credentials of the person you hire for your podcast; a fancy title doesn't mean they won't mess everything up.Links referenced in this episode:schoolofpodcasting.compodcastbranding.cothepharmacistsvoice.comperrysburgpodcast.comwelcometoearthstories.comaskralph.commediavoiceovers.comsounddogs.comtunereel.compodpage.comschoolofpodcasting.compodcasthotseat.comempoweredpodcasting.commarriedandloveit.comMentioned in this episode:Question of the MonthThis month's question comes from Todd the Gator of the Gaurdian Downcast (guardiandowncast.com).

We often hear about how debt or the lack of a financial cushion can trap us in a cycle of stress, forcing tough decisions that might dig us deeper into trouble. Often, it's not because we want to but because our finances leave us no choice. What we don't talk about enough is the flip side: how being debt-free and having savings can open doors to incredible opportunities in life. In this special episode, I sit down with Steve Stewart, the talented editor behind this podcast, to dive into his inspiring journey of becoming debt-free and the amazing paths it's allowed him to pursue. From paying off his mortgage to building a thriving career in podcast editing, Steve shares his story and offers insights on how you can do the same. We also discuss: Sustaining a debt-free life Opportunities from financial freedom The podcast industry's playing field Audio vs. video podcasting My friend, Steve Stewart is the Podcast Editor for some of the biggest indie personal finance podcasts like the Stacking Benjamins Show and Afford Anything.

I ask my audience what their top pet peeves are just drive them nuts. We're spilling the beans on all the annoying things that make us want to tear our hair out while listening. We've got it all covered from podcasters who take forever to get to the good stuff to the dreaded mid-sentence ads that pop up like uninvited guests at a party. We also chat about the classic blunders that drive listeners nuts, like out-of-context clips and those cringe-worthy audio issues. So, grab your headphones and get ready to laugh and commiserate as we call out all the podcasting faux pas that need to be put to rest!Thanks to the Participants in This EpisodeSteve Stewart from SteveStewart.me and the Podcast Editor AcademyKim Newlove from the Pharmacist's Voice and the Perrysburg PodcastMark Lawley from the Practical Prepping show. Todd the Gator from the Guardian Downcast show.Zo Richardson from the Back Look Cinema show.York from Welcome to Earth Stories Show.Dave Jackson from the School of Podcasting.Niel's GoFundMe Page and his Documentary The Messengers: A Podcast DocumentaryTakeaways: Podcasters need to stop dragging out the intro and just get to the point already. Volume fluctuations between hosts and guests are a major annoyance that can ruin a podcast. Out-of-context clips at the start of a podcast are confusing and just plain unnecessary. Too many commercials can turn a great podcast into a frustrating experience for listeners. Not including show notes wastes listeners' time and makes it hard to follow up on interesting topics. Don't tell me a book and then not put the link. Bad audio quality is the ultimate deal-breaker that makes me want to hit stop immediately.

Is it possible to buy a home without a credit score? We're joined by special guest Steve Stewart, podcast editor, who shares how he moved his family to Colorado and secured a mortgage without a traditional credit score. Steve, who hasn't opened a credit account since 2008, reveals tools and strategies for documenting payment history, navigating homeownership as a single-income household, and overcoming challenges as a self-employed borrower. We also discuss why the credit scoring system prioritizes debt, how professionals with unconventional financial profiles can still secure a mortgage, and how to handle tax reporting, 1099 forms, and business structuring for freelancers and entrepreneurs.

Nativity story. From the angelic proclamation to the shepherds to the life-changing reality of Christ's birth, we are invited to see the intersection of Heaven and Earth. The angels' declaration, “Glory to God in the highest, and on Earth peace,” reminds us that the Nativity is not just a historical event but an invitation into a life of faith, wonder, and participation in God's eternal kingdom.Throughout this series, we've explored the themes of hiddenness, humility, and the transformative power of God breaking into our world in smallness and frailty. Now, we see the culmination in the glory of God, calling us to rise and embrace the wonder of His presence, both around us and within us. The Nativity reminds us that the Kingdom of Heaven is here and now, inviting us to live with an active, unwavering faith.
The Nativity story begins with a message of inclusivity, offering hope to those on the margins of society. From the shepherds—outcasts and societal outsiders—to the Magi, foreigners who journeyed far to worship the Christ child, the gospel reveals its universal reach. This episode highlights the radical nature of the Nativity: a story that welcomes the poor, the misunderstood, and the overlooked into the heart of God's plan. Both groups of visitors demonstrate faith, obedience, and worship, underscoring the inclusive and transformative nature of the gospel.Through the eyes of the shepherds and the Magi, we are reminded of Jesus' invitation to all who are weary and heavy-laden to find rest in Him. Join us as we explore the richness of God's grace extended to all humanity, regardless of status or origin.
