A discussion of what most pastors would consider to be taboo or too much for their congregations to handle.

All of us have pasts, collectively and individually, that we are ashamed of.

Dan and Glenn talk with Dr. Joe Molina about these issues and topics found in his new book, "Musings From the Heights: An Anthology of Reflections on The Christian Life for Seekers, Pilgrims, and Overcomers."

Censorship and Punk Rock?!?!..."That's like peanut butter and mushrooms." They just don't mix. Punk Rock has always been recognized as a genre that just cuts to the chase and calls things for what they are .."the good...the bad...and the ugly." However, British Punk Rocker, Peter 118, got kicked out of a UK Pop Punk Facebook group for expressing his belief that it is wrong to kill unborn children. Are we living in a world where nothing goes uncensored?

Just before making his way to the Get Real! Studio (a.k.a. The Fishbowl)Dan had an interesting encounter at his house which raises the questions: Is it really "good news" to hear that you can work your way to Heaven? Does wearing a tie and riding a bicycle earn you extra favor in the eyes of God? Is there an exclusive sect of Christianity that has the purest truth? Hmmmm. you will have to listen to find out the answers to these questions and find out the details of the encounter! Opening jam is "So We Can Rise" by Christian Metalcore Band, Brotherhood (MD) from their EP "Heroes."
It is not unusual for God to take someone out of a place of darkness and then send them back to that same place to be a light in that darkness.

Pursuit of truth, even through mythologies, will lead to Logos (logic, reason, Christ, eternal life) so that man is without excuse. Hear how the Apostle Paul used reason when he spoke on Mars Hill and how the new album "Agenatos" by Celtic folk-metal band Eluveitie can be considered a lyrical journey towards Logos. Music, "Northern Steel," by Antti Martikainen.
Is there a connection between the new Eluveitie album, "Ategnatos," the prophetic imagery of the raven and the dove, and Logos? Find out how the raven and the dove fit into the fulfillment of prophecy and how beautifully the Celtic folk metal band Eluveitie captures this concept in their most recent album release which can be considered a pursuit of Logos. Music, "Lords of Iron," by Antti Martikainen.
The world is messy, life is messy, and even miracles are messy. Not much of what we experience in this existence equates to a nice tidy package that is fully comprehensible. Unfortunately, true faith in Christ has nothing to do with cute smiley angels or anything that makes sense to our human eye. However, if we earnestly seek truth or "logos" God will reveal it to us.
Taking an uninhibited dive into the deep-end of the pool, hosts Dan and Glenn explore the topic of "Logos" which means logic or reason. There is a "Divine Logic" which actually makes sense and contradicts many "silly" teachings of modern, Western, Christianity. Ethics and emotion have often been elevated above "Logos" and have weakened the modern church. Also discussed is the legislation of "Logos" by governments. Is this really God's plan?
"Punk is the most loving punch in the face you will ever have!" God is using punk music to get people's attention.

You will also get to hear their track “Reconcile.” Part II to be released next week is even more of an inspiration.
Authenticity and sincerity are hard to find in today's world.

Not only can these girls play intense metal; they demonstrate a genuine love for Christ and others that is an example to all.

As discussed in previous editions those who have the personality of an Empath are most vulnerable to spiritual abuse.
Part 2 of an in-depth discussion of the reality of spiritual abuse. Dan, Glenn and special guest Sarabeth offer their insights having experienced spiritual abuse firsthand in a religious cult that on the surface appeared to be a special fellowship chosen to do a “great work for God.” In this account of their experiences, they offer hope to those currently involved in similar situations and offer a lifeline for anyone who would like to talk to them about leaving a controlling religious group or healing from spiritual abuse.
In this first part of pivotal edition, special guest Sarabeth discusses with Dan and Glenn their experiences in a controlling religious cult, how they realized the group was a cult, and their experiences in healing from leaving the organization.
