Dillon Thornton
Welcome to Midguard! In this midweek podcast, pastor-theologian Dillon Thornton helps Christ-followers of planet Earth persist in our reflection on the truth and become more discerning readers of our culture. As the Apostle Paul said to his protégé nearly two millennia ago, “Timothy, guard the message entrusted to you. There’s a lot of BS out there …” (1 Timothy 6:20, Dillon’s rough paraphrase). Expect resolute doctrine and no-holds-barred cultural analysis, the kind of stuff that’ll put hair on your theological chest.
