In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron engage in a sober, theologically grounded conversation on the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk—a rising conservative voice, public speaker, and Christian leader. Speaking carefully and pastorally, they explore the emotional and spiritual weight of this moment, discussing the role of political rhetoric, cultural dehumanization, and the influence of evil in a fallen world. With a focus on deep theological reflection rather than reactionary commentary, they offer a framework for Christians wrestling with grief, outrage, and confusion in the wake of this political assassination. If you're a believer looking for more than surface-level takes—and want to process this event through a gospel-centered, biblically faithful lens—this discussion will help you think clearly and Christianly about a moment many are calling paradigm-shifting.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

Freakonomics Podcast EpisodeIn this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron offer a thought-provoking theological response to Episode 644 of the Freakonomics podcast, "Has America Lost Its Appetite for the Common Good?"—featuring controversial political theorist Patrick Deneen. With their signature blend of faith, philosophy, and cultural analysis, Nathan and Cameron explore Deneen's critique of liberalism, the spiritual vacuum in Western political life, and the implications of his ideas for Christians navigating a fractured public square. From Why Liberalism Failed to Regime Change, Deneen's work prompts timely questions: Can a pluralistic society truly share a common good without shared faith? How should Christians think about post-liberalism, populism, and the loss of moral consensus in America? This episode is essential listening for believers seeking rich theological engagement with current events, political theory, and the future of Christian witness in the modern West.

In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive into a rich theological conversation on how our view of history shapes our understanding of human nature—and vice versa. Drawing from classical thinkers like Aristotle, Machiavelli, and Madison, as well as the biblical narrative, they challenge the modern assumption that progress means moral advancement. Is human nature evolving, or are we just repeating ancient patterns with new tools? And how should Christians think about Scripture, history, and the trajectory of our culture in a time of increasing technological disillusionment? This episode is a must-watch for Christians interested in deep theological reflection, cultural analysis, and how the Christian worldview uniquely offers a coherent vision of history, hope, and human identity.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

Inmiddels is het bedrijf onderdeel van AutoBinck Group en bedient het enkele honderdduizenden gebruikers, vooral in stedelijke gebieden. Het businessmodel draait om transacties op het platform: elke verhuur levert een commissie op, terwijl hosts extra functies kunnen afnemen tegen betaling. De laatste jaren verschuift de focus: niet langer puur volume, maar een loyale community en aansluiting bij stedelijk mobiliteitsbeleid.

In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into the question: Have Christians abandoned truth in an age of conspiracy theories, curated realities, and alternative facts? With clarity and theological depth, they explore how personal preference, algorithm-driven information bubbles, and cultural relativism are shaping the way believers engage with truth today. Drawing from Scripture, church history, and contemporary issues—from astrology to AI, from psilocybin to politics—they ask whether Christians are applying the same rigorous standards of coherence, correspondence, and livability to all their beliefs—or just some. This conversation challenges viewers to consider how truth is defined, defended, and lived out in a post-truth culture, and why reclaiming a biblically grounded understanding of reality is more urgent than ever.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into the complex and controversial legacy of Dr. James Dobson, following news of his recent passing. Best known for founding Focus on the Family, Dobson shaped evangelical family culture for decades through radio, books, and discipleship materials like Adventures in Odyssey and McGee and Me. But his legacy is far from one-dimensional. Nathan and Cameron unpack Dobson's theological influence, his disciplinary advice, and his increasingly political stance—from early cultural engagement to vocal support for Donald Trump. This nuanced conversation explores how Dobson became both a hero of Christian family values and a villain in the eyes of many exvangelicals. For Christians seeking serious theological reflection on how faith intersects with politics, parenting, and cultural engagement, this is a must-listen.

Stuart, a globally respected Christian thinker and apologist, shares a curated list of essential texts—from Modern Times by Paul Johnson to The Cross of Christ by John Stott and The Abolition of Man by C.S.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into That Hideous Strength, the final and most complex book of C.S. Lewis's Ransom Trilogy. Rather than offering a typical plot summary, they explore the prophetic theological themes that Lewis weaves into this dystopian narrative—from technocratic utopianism and demonic deception to the seduction of power and the spiritual cost of compromise. Originally written in 1945, this novel's relevance to the challenges Christians face in 2025 is both unsettling and illuminating. Nathan and Cameron connect Lewis's fiction to The Abolition of Man, The Inner Ring, and present-day issues like AI, media manipulation, transhumanism, and the loss of transcendence in modern culture. Perfect for Christians seeking rich theological reflection on current events, this conversation challenges believers to slow down, cultivate virtue, and recover a vision of reality where spirit precedes matter and truth is not up for negotiation.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into the widely accepted cultural narrative that unbelief is the default human position. Drawing from a landmark Oxford University study on the natural inclination toward belief in the supernatural, they challenge the modern myth that religion is merely a primitive attempt at science. Together, they explore the philosophical and theological implications of studies suggesting that children are predisposed to believe in God or the afterlife, critique the legacy of thinkers like Auguste Comte and J.G. Frazier, and examine the intellectual assumptions behind secularism, skepticism, and the myth of progress.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into a theologically rich conversation sparked by a dialogue between Bishop Robert Barron and N.T. Wright on how to read the Bible. With Bible sales surging across North America, many Christians are picking up Scripture for the first time—or returning with fresh eyes—and asking: "Where do I begin?" Nathan and Cameron explore the unavoidable role of tradition, community, and the Holy Spirit in biblical interpretation. They challenge hyper-individualistic readings common in Western Christianity and unpack the theological implications of relying on YouTube influencers, historical context, or denominational frameworks as our modern-day '42 guides into the jungle' of Scripture. This is a must-listen for thoughtful believers who want to grow in biblical literacy, wrestle with how culture shapes their faith, and reflect on what it means to read the Bible faithfully in today's world.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron engage in a deep theological and philosophical conversation exploring one of the most pressing questions of our time: What is the good life? As Christians navigating a culture marked by meaninglessness, hyper-individualism, and spiritual confusion, they examine how ancient wisdom—from Solomon to Marcus Aurelius—intersects with modern challenges like social isolation, gym culture, and the back-to-the-land movement. With references to Stoicism, Pierre Hadot, Paul's letter to the Philippians, and the failures of secular philosophy to offer purpose, this episode invites believers into a rich, gospel-centered reflection on virtue, identity, and true human flourishing.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into the ethics of AI, language, and what it means to be human in a rapidly advancing technological world. Starting with a provocative question—should Christians use slurs like "clanker" toward robots or AI?—they explore how our language toward machines reflects deeper theological and moral concerns. What begins as a discussion on humor and frustration with technology evolves into a rich conversation about the image of God (Imago Dei), the nature of animals, the soul, and the ethical dangers of humanizing machines. Drawing on philosophy, scripture, and real-world examples, they challenge Christians to think critically about how we engage with artificial intelligence and the impact it has on our character.

In this deeply engaging and theologically rich episode, we're going to be listening to a talk that Cameron gave at Perimeter Presbyterian Church in Alpharetta, Georgia. The title of the talk is Listening to the Wider Culture. This talk looks at and analyzes the cultural assumptions around love, freedom, and happiness. Cameron invites Christians into a thoughtful exploration of how to engage a culture increasingly driven by questions of meaning, identity, and loneliness. Drawing on over 15 years of experience in apologetics, Cameron challenges the modern church to reimagine apologetics not just as formal debate or academic discourse, but as a deeply relational and everyday expression of the credibility of Jesus Christ. He addresses the cultural shifts from evidence to existential concerns, unpacks the modern misunderstandings of love, freedom, and happiness, and equips believers to respond with clarity, humility, and hope. Ideal for Christians seeking serious theological reflection on current events, this video offers practical wisdom for defending the faith in a way that is both faithful and culturally aware.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

They unpack Ankara's ties with the US under the Trump administration, its strained relations with Israel, the implications of Turkey's peace process with the PKK, and Erdoğan's bid to maintain his hold on power.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron explore the growing weariness many Christians feel toward today's nonstop news cycle—from the emptiness of sensational headlines to the deeper cultural and spiritual implications of media overload. They reflect on why stories that once captivated now seem meaningless, and why skepticism toward both the news and its messengers is rising. The conversation then turns to the sobering allegations surrounding Michael Tate, former member of DC Talk and the Newsboys, prompting a hard but necessary theological reflection on celebrity culture within the Church, moral integrity, and the long-term impact of scandal on Christian witness.

In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron unpack the modern obsession with transhumanism, biohacking, and human optimization in light of Christian theology. Drawing on insights from Miroslav Volf and Renaissance thinker Pico della Mirandola, they explore why simply “being human” often feels insufficient in a secular age shaped by practical atheism.

In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron tackle the popular atheist claim that the existence of God is an "extraordinary claim" requiring extraordinary evidence—flipping the script by examining the hidden assumptions and metaphysical commitments of skeptics themselves. Drawing on insights from thinkers like Richard Swinburne and Charles Taylor, they unpack why belief in an intelligible universe, laws of logic, and human consciousness are themselves extraordinary—and why secular worldviews often rest on faith-like assumptions. Perfect for Christians seeking a deeper, intellectually rigorous faith, this conversation explores how to respond to modern skepticism with confidence, nuance, and historical awareness. Whether you're engaging with "New Atheism" online or wrestling with tough questions about science, faith, and meaning, this is a must-watch for anyone serious about theology and cultural engagement.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.
In this episode, Nathan and Cameron speak as fathers and Christian thinkers about the deeper meaning behind Faith Kipyegon's historic attempt to become the first woman to run a sub-four-minute mile. Drawing from Scripture, physiology, and personal experience, they explore the God-given distinctions between men and women—how those differences should be honored, not erased—and why modern culture's attempts to redefine equality often create confusion rather than clarity. Through the lens of sports, biology, and fatherhood, they reflect on how Christians can disciple their daughters (and sons) to embrace womanhood and manhood as gifts, not liabilities. With a thoughtful balance of theology and practicality, this conversation is for anyone passionate about raising the next generation with biblical clarity in a world of blurred gender lines. Whether you're a parent, pastor, teacher, or mentor, this is a rich, timely dialogue for those seeking gospel-shaped wisdom in today's cultural climate.Faith Kipyegon sub 4 minute mileChristian perspective on gender rolesbiblical manhood and womanhoodtheology of gender differencesChristian fathers and daughtersraising godly daughtersChristian response to feminismbiological differences men and womengospel-centered parentingChristian worldview on sports and genderdiscipleship for Christian fathersfemininity in biblical perspectivemanhood and womanhood in Christencouraging young women biblicallyChristian analysis of current eventsDONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron engage in a thoughtful, theologically grounded discussion on the changing political and cultural landscape in America, using the recent New York City mayoral primary as a springboard. They reflect on the growing appeal of socialism and even communism among younger voters, and explore why traditional capitalist and conservative frameworks are increasingly being rejected. Rather than dismissing these trends as youthful ignorance, Nathan and Cameron dig deeper—analyzing the plausibility structures, economic realities, and cultural narratives shaping a generation that feels disconnected from ownership, community, and purpose. For Christians seeking a deeper understanding of how theology intersects with politics, freedom, and societal change, this conversation offers wisdom, nuance, and a much-needed reminder of where our ultimate hope must lie.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron respond to viral claims that Younghoon Kim—allegedly the individual with the highest IQ ever recorded—is a Christian. While some in the apologetics community tout this as a cultural win, Nathan and Cameron explore whether raw intelligence should be used to validate the Christian faith. They dig into the distinction between IQ and biblical wisdom, the long-standing intellectual tradition of Christianity, and the dangers of seeking external validation from secular standards. The hosts challenge the assumption that faith needs elite endorsement, arguing that wisdom, not intelligence, is the true biblical metric of value. From Augustine and Aquinas to modern skeptics and cultural pressures, this conversation is a thoughtful critique of how Christians engage with public narratives about intellect and belief.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan Rittenhouse and Cameron McAllister explore the noticeable shift in cultural momentum surrounding Pride Month 2025. Has society grown weary of identity politics and expressive individualism? Is there a deeper hunger for meaning—one that shallow slogans and corporate branding can't satisfy? With thoughtful Christian analysis, they unpack why Pride messaging feels quieter this year, the ideological fractures within the LGBTQIA+ movement, and how historic Christian symbols like the rainbow are being reclaimed. If you're a believer seeking intelligent, biblically grounded discussion on Pride Month, cultural fatigue, and the renewal of Christian witness in the public square, this conversation is for you.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.
In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Cameron and Nathan explore the unsettling rise of religious extremism in North America—particularly among evangelicals—and the tragic case of Vance Luther Bolter.

With references to scripture, personal stories, and current events, this conversation challenges believers to reflect on political idolatry, dehumanizing rhetoric, and the moral consequences of unchecked speech. If you're a Christian hungry for deep theological insight and honest engagement with today's most pressing cultural issues, this episode will speak directly to you.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.
In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Cameron and Nathan wade into the chaos of current global events—from missile strikes in Iran to plane crashes in India—and ask a critical theological question: how should Christians respond to a world that feels like it's unraveling? Rather than offering false certainty or prophetic guesswork, they reflect on the emotional and spiritual toll of nonstop news and the dangers of distraction, drawing from Scripture, C.S. Lewis's Screwtape Letters, and their own lived experiences. This episode challenges believers to reclaim attention, prioritize the local over the global, and discern the difference between what's simply a problem and what is your problem. For Christians seeking thoughtful, biblically grounded dialogue in a noisy world, this conversation offers clarity, conviction, and grace.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.
In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Cameron and Nathan explore the tension between Christian fundamentalism and faithful scholarship, using the controversy around resurrection expert Mike Licona as a case study. As Licona faces accusations of “caving to secularism” for his analysis of gospel differences through ancient literary conventions, the hosts ask: does questioning tradition mean abandoning truth? This conversation unpacks how fundamentalism's demand for absolute certainty often silences honest inquiry and mistakes nuance for compromise. With insights from George Marsden, Craig Keener, and D.A. Carson, Cameron and Nathan examine the evangelical tendency to draw rigid lines of who's “in” or “out,” and how that impulse may reflect fear more than faith. For Christians wrestling with deconstruction, biblical interpretation, and the future of evangelical witness, this episode offers a compelling call to humble confidence, theological depth, and gospel-centered curiosity.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.
