Podcasts about unraptured

As a teenager in the buckle of the Bible Belt, Zack Hunt was convinced the rapture would happen at any moment. Being ready meant never missing church, never sinning, and always listening to Christian radio. But when the rapture didn't happen, Hunt's tightly wound faith began to fray. If he had been wrong about the rapture, what else about his faith might not hold water? Part memoir, part tour of the apocalypse, and part call to action, Unraptured traces how the church's focus on escaping to heaven has it mired in decay. Teetering on the brink of irrelevancy in a world rocked by refugee crises, climate change, war, and rumors of war, the church cannot afford to focus on the end times instead of following Jesus in the here and now. Unraptured uses these signs of the times to help readers reorient their understanding of the gospel around loving and caring for the least of these.We talk about how Zach grew up in the bubble and how he grew in college. Now Zach still finds the way of Jesus as attractive although he feels less excited by many aspects of organized religion.Fundamentalism is a lot like racism. It's not something you're born with, it is something you're taught. Zach talks about meeting his wife in college who wasn't afraid to call him on his way of thinking. He also describes meeting with a college professor to talk about his views on theology where he thought his hardline approach would be rewarded his professor challenged him to start with an understanding that we are living in the end times now. After initially getting angry and rebelling for a couple of years in what Zach calls a pretty typical rebellion for a Christian kid (trying alcohol, listening to rock music, and getting a tattoo) he began to understand what his professor was saying. Zach felt that when you look at the Bible and need to interpret it you should begin from the standpoint of love and not fear. If your interpretation doesn't cause you to love God and your neighbor then your interpretation is wrong.You can follow Zack on social and check out his book on Amazon.      

So many of us evangelicals (current or former) have done it.  We thought the rapture happened, can't find our Christian loved-ones, so we call our born-again, spirit-filled grandma.  If the rapture happened, she'd be gone!  We sigh a deep relief when she answers, “Hey, sweetie.”  End times theology, the book of Revelation, the mark of the beast, the tribulation, a 1000-year reign, the Left Behind series and that “scary-ass” 70s movie they made us watch in youth group.  Author and theologian, Zach Hunt, says “not so fast, the book of Revelation is about liberation and hope.”   He shares with Jack Hoey and Joey Svendsen the content he wrote in his book, Unraptured: How End Times Theology Gets It Wrong .  Did Paul and Jesus think God was coming back in their lifetime?  How is a belief in the rapture anti-biblical?   Oh, yeah and what is it about Dolly Parton and Tom Hanks that make them both perfect candidates for the Anti-Christ.  Zach Hunt:https://twitter.com/zaackhunthttps://zackhunt.net/Jack Hoey:https://twitter.com/jackthelesserJoey/PWNA Instagram:  www.instagram.com/joeysvendsenCurrent DonorSee giving opportunity: https://donorsee.com/pwnahelpsSupport Us:Join us as a patron! https://www.patreon.com/pwnapodor leave a Venmo tip right @  https://venmo.com/joey-svendsenJoin the discussion:https://www.facebook.com/groups/PWNAtalkSocials:https://twitter.com/joeysvendsenhttps://www.facebook.com/PWNApodE-mail PWNAcontact@gmail.com for correspondence.Music on this episode courtesy of Derek Minor:  http://www.derekminor.comOther music originally composed by Joel Hamilton + friendshttps://mechanicalriver.bandcamp.com/http://embassyfreqs.com/Executive Producer of PWNApod:  Jared SvendsenSupport the show

Why are Christians so obsessed with the rapture? Author, blogger and Nazarene elder Zack Hunt joins us to talk about his new book Unraptured, which is a lot less about well, the rapture, than you might think!

Recorded March 12th, 2019 https://www.patreon.com/conspirinormal We welcome our good friend and fellow Nashvillian Zack Hunt back to the show, We discuss with Zack about his book "Unraptured: How End Times Theology Gets It Wrong". Zack tells us about how he got super into the concept of the Rapture and how his viewpoints on End Times Theology has evolved over time. We look at some of these concepts, where they come from and whether or not they are biblical or not. Zack also tells us about what he thinks the book of Revelation really means.

A chat with Zach Hunt about his forthcoming book Unraptured, and the anxiety-laced religion of trying to get God to beam a few of us up before God gets really awful toward everyone else. Good stuff here, much more in his book!
