In Part 2 of Thinking Out Loud's exploration of “crypto-religious” art, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into the complex relationship between Christianity, culture, and creativity in a post-secular age. Building on their earlier conversation, they examine how artists like David Foster Wallace, Flannery O'Connor, and Walker Percy wrestle with spiritual truth, beauty, and brokenness in ways that challenge both secular and Christian audiences. With thoughtful analysis and honest reflection, Nathan and Cameron ask whether authentic Christian art must always be explicit—or whether ambiguity can reveal deeper theological insight. Perfect for Christians seeking serious, theologically rich discussion on faith, art, and current culture.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 Middle East Focus, hosts Alistair Taylor and Matthew Czekaj are joined by MEI Senior Fellow Gönül Tol to discuss democratic backsliding in Turkey under President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. The conversation explores how Erdoğan's crackdown against Turkey's opposition has reached new heights, with Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu and other opposition party officials facing politically motivated charges. At the same time, Erdoğan is attacking opposition media, deepening talks with Kurdish leaders, and strengthening ties with the West — all with, at least in part, an eye to extending his rule beyond 2028. Tol unpacks the government's strategy, the risks to Turkish democracy, and what Erdoğan's growing international prominence means for the country's political future.    Recorded on November 4, 2025.   Read Gönül Tol's analysis of how Erdoğan uses Turkey's role on the global stage to tighten his grip on power here.   Listen to Rethinking Democracy here. 

In this two-part episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan Rittenhouse and Cameron McAllister dive deep into the fascinating idea of being “crypto-religious”—a term coined by Polish poet Czesław Miłosz and revived in Paul Elie's new book The Last Supper. Together, Nathan and Cameron explore how artists like Bob Dylan, Madonna, Prince, Bono, and Andy Warhol used religious imagery while keeping their personal beliefs ambiguous, inviting audiences to wrestle with questions of faith in a post-Christian world. Through thoughtful theological and cultural analysis, they examine whether “crypto-religiosity” can still exist today amid political polarization and spiritual confusion. This rich, intellectually honest discussion invites Christians to think deeply about hidden belief, creative expression, and how faith continues to shape modern culture.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.

En este episodio converso con la Dra. Laura Mena García, optometrista e investigadora del Instituto de Oftalmobiología Aplicada (IOBA) de la Universidad de Valladolid. Su trabajo ha contribuido al desarrollo de nuevos programas de neurorrehabilitación visual para pacientes con hemianopsia y otros déficits campimétricos derivados del daño cerebral adquirido. Hablamos sobre cómo el cerebro procesa la información visual más allá del lóbulo occipital, los mecanismos anatómicos y funcionales que explican las hemianopsias, y las diferencias con otros trastornos como la heminegligencia. La Dra. Mena expone con claridad los fundamentos y la evidencia actual de las terapias compensatorias, restitutivas y sustitutivas, y comparte su experiencia clínica en el diseño de programas de rehabilitación visual basados en el reentrenamiento de los movimientos oculares y la atención visual. Una conversación que abre un campo poco explorado en la neurorrehabilitación: la visión desde una perspectiva cerebral.

In this special Halloween episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown—exploring how wishful thinking, childlike faith, and imagination reveal profound theological truths about human desire and divine hope. Known for their thoughtful Christian analysis of culture, Nathan and Cameron unpack C.S. Lewis's argument from desire, the role of fantasy in spiritual formation, and the controversial idea that belief in figures like Santa Claus or the Great Pumpkin can be formative tutors of faith. Drawing connections between pop culture, philosophy, and Christian theology, they invite listeners to rediscover how imagination and longing point to the ultimate fulfillment found in Christ. Perfect for Christians seeking rich theological reflection on Halloween, faith, and the deeper meaning behind our stories.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.

Opera's gaan meestal over liefde en dood, zelden over medische procedures. Toch is Over Tijd van Kameroperagezelschap Salix precies dat: een opera over medische procedures. Op basis van persoonlijke ervaringen van regisseur Annemiek van Elst en Elly Scheele ontstond een indringend muziektheaterstuk over IVF, ofwel In Vitro Fertilisatie. Het is de methode om langs kunstmatige weg zwanger te worden, als het niet lukt om langs natuurlijke weg aan de kinderwens te voldoen.Volgens artsen in Londen, waar ze destijds woonden, hadden Annemiek van Elst en haar vriend minder dan 5 procent kans om zwanger te worden. Met het advies om een IVF-procedure te beginnen, bleken dingen toch anders te lopen. Nog vóór de eerste hormooninjecties werden gezet, bleek Annemiek toch zwanger. Hoewel die zwangerschap uiteindelijk mislukte, kreeg Annemiek uiteindelijk toch langs natuurlijke weg een kind, dat op het moment van dit gesprek zeven maanden oud is.16 jaarLibrettist Elly Scheele weet nog niet of ze een kind heeft gekregen. Zij doorliep een IVF-procedure, maar niet om er zelf zwanger mee te worden. Omdat ze zelf geen kinderwens heeft, besloot ze tot eiceldonatie aan de eicelbank. Daar kunnen vrouwen met een onvervulde kinderwens terecht voor vruchtbare eicellen, als ze aar zelf niet over beschikken. Mochten de eicellen van Elly Scheele tot een succesvolle zwangerschap hebben geleid, zal zij daar mogelijk over 16 jaar meer van horen.Genoeg stof voor een gesprek, zeker omdat ik met mijn partner aan het begin van deze eeuw na vijf mislukte IVF-trajecten verder ging als liefdespaar zonder kinderen. Dus gaat het in deze podcast over kinderwensen, hormonen, eenzaamheid, biologische en mechanische klokken. En over opera. Want ‘Over Tijd', de opera die Scheele schreef en die Annemiek van Elst regisseerde op muziek van componist Tijmen van Tol.Maak je op voor drie kwartier openhartigheid.Over Tijd is tijdens November Music mee te maken op 9 november.

Hoe groot was de invloed van Nijmegen op het koloniale slavernijsysteem? Nieuw onderzoek toont aan dat Nijmeegse bestuurders slavernij mogelijk maakten, in stand hielden, en er persoonlijk van profiteerden. Deze kennis verandert ons beeld van de stad. Hoe leeft dit verleden voort in het heden? En wat vraagt dat van ons als inwoners, als bestuur, als samenleving? Luisteren naar historicus Joris van den Tol, onderzoeker Nikita Krouwel en NiNsee-voorzitter Dave Ensberg-Kleijkers en denk verder over het slavernijverleden van Nijmegen.

In this episode, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into the theological and cultural earthquakes shaking the global church, beginning with the dramatic shift in the Anglican Communion as the Church of England appoints Dame Sarah Mullally as Archbishop of Canterbury—a move many global Anglicans see as proof that the English church has abandoned biblical authority. With sharp insight and theological nuance, they unpack the growing divide between progressive Western Anglicanism and the vibrant, Scripture-centered Global South, drawing powerful parallels to the recent Methodist split. The conversation explores not only gender and sexuality debates but the deeper issue of biblical authority, orthodoxy, and faithfulness to historic Christianity. Nathan and Cameron also react to Canon Press's $10 million offer to buy Christianity Today, analyzing what these events reveal about the realignment of authority, mission, and truth in the modern church.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into a rich theological discussion on globalization, nationalism, and the Christian's calling in a hyper-connected yet fractured world. Through the lens of American farm policy, overproduction, and the global soybean market, they explore how shifting trade dynamics, political realignments, and cultural homogenization reveal both the power and fragility of modern systems. Drawing on biblical wisdom and thinkers like Wendell Berry and Marshall McLuhan, Nathan and Cameron challenge Christians to discern where their true responsibilities lie—between interest, concern, and focus—and to reclaim a distinctly Christian vision of diversity, culture, and stewardship amid global uncertainty. This conversation is perfect for believers seeking thoughtful, gospel-centered insight into current events and how faith shapes our engagement with economics, culture, and 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.

In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into what it means to be Christian "people of the Book" in a society rapidly drifting into post-literacy. Drawing from James Marriott's article The Dawn of the Post-Literate Society, they explore the cultural, spiritual, and intellectual consequences of our screen-saturated age — and what it means for Christians committed to truth, Scripture, and careful thinking. From the decline in reading comprehension to the passive consumption of endless digital content, they examine how smartphones, edutainment, and modern distractions are shaping our minds and our theology. With references to thinkers like Neil Postman, Kant, and Matthew Arnold, this episode is for Christians who crave rich theological discussion, cultural critique, and a challenge to reclaim deep literacy in a distracted world.

In this episode, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into the rising influence of Doug Wilson and the growing interest in Christian nationalism among evangelicals. Sparked by Wilson's recent high-profile interview with Ross Douthat on The Interesting Times podcast and growing media coverage—including CNN—this conversation critically examines Wilson's theological vision, his version of Christendom 2.0, and the historical Reformed roots of his political theology. With thoughtful nuance, Nathan and Cameron explore the appeal of Wilson's message to disillusioned Christian men, the implications of his post-secular, patriarchal worldview, and the overlap and tension between theocracy, Calvinism, and modern conservative movements. This episode is essential for Christians seeking serious, biblically grounded analysis of current theological trends shaping the church and society today.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 into one of the most provocative questions facing the modern church: could — or should — we ever accept an AI pastor? Drawing from a Substack article by Tony Kritz titled “You Want an AI Pastor (and You Just Don't Know It Yet),” they unpack a fictional yet eerily realistic scenario where artificial intelligence takes over spiritual leadership. The two explore the theological, ethical, and philosophical implications of AI-generated sermons, digital discipleship, and the replacement of human embodiment with machine precision. In classic Thinking Out Loud style, Nathan and Cameron push beyond fearmongering to ask deep questions about truth, incarnation, and what it really means to be human in an increasingly artificial age. Perfect for Christians hungry for thoughtful theological discussion on technology, faith, and the future of the Church.Article Link: https://tonykriz.substack.com/p/you-want-an-ai-pastor-you-just-dont?r=53syi&utm_medium=ios&triedRedirect=trueDONATE 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 tackle the complex and emotionally charged topic of martyrdom, using the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk as a lens to examine how Christians should think about suffering, political identity, and gospel witness. Drawing from theological tradition and historical parallels like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, they explore three possible frameworks for understanding Kirk's death—Christian martyr, political martyr, or a hybrid of both. With careful attention to language, biblical definitions, and the cultural moment, this deep-dive invites Christians to move beyond knee-jerk reactions and reflect theologically on the meaning of true sacrifice and public faith. Whether you're wrestling with the term “martyr” in light of recent events or seeking clarity in how Christians engage with political power, this episode offers nuanced, faithful insight grounded in Scripture and church history.

With insight, wit, and theological reflection, they explore the cultural crisis of meaning, the limits of techno-utopianism, and why modern narratives—both secular and spiritual—are failing to satisfy the human soul. Drawing from Joan Didion, Charles Taylor, and American pop culture, they challenge Christians to consider how the gospel offers a fuller, more coherent vision of life, purpose, and hope.

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.

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. Join Nathan and Cameron as they wrestle with Dobson's impact—both the good and the harmful—and what it means for the Church moving forward.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 Rittenhouse and Stuart McAllister dive into a rich theological discussion sparked by a listener's question: What are the foundational books every thinking Christian should engage with to understand today's cultural, philosophical, and sociological landscape? 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. Lewis. Together, Nathan and Stuart explore how deep Christian theology, classical philosophy, and cultural analysis intersect to equip believers to live faithfully in a complex, postmodern world. This episode is a must-listen for Christians hungry for intellectually rigorous, gospel-centered engagement with the issues shaping our time.1. Modern Times by Paul Johnson.2. The Passion of the Western Mind by Richard Tarnas.3. The Cross of Christ by John Stott.4. No god but God by Os Guinness and John Seel.5. The One, the Three, and the Many by Colin Gunton.6.

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. This conversation is a must-watch for Christians seeking thoughtful, intelligent engagement with the roots of belief, the burden of proof, and how to respond to contemporary atheistic claims with grace and intellectual rigor.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 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.
