What If Project: Recent Episodes
Dr. Glenn Siepert
What if there are ways of thinking about God and faith that are different than what our traditions have handed us?
What if the Book of Psalms isn't simply a collection of ancient worship songs, but a guide for living an honest spiritual life?
In this week’s episode we sit down with Richard Bruxvoort Colligan - musician, songwriter, and author of the incredible "Dangerous Songs: The Psalms and a Life of Honest Faith" to explore why the Psalms have endured for thousands of years.
We cover LOTS of ground and explore things like lament, joy, grief, hope, prayer, worship, and why the Psalms give us permission to bring every part of ourselves before God.
So. Good.
Whether you're deconstructing your faith, rediscovering Christian spirituality, or just looking for a more authentic way to pray, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on one of the Bible's most well-known books.
In this episode you'll discover:
Why the Psalms are still relevant today
How lament can become a spiritual practice
Why honest prayer matters more than perfect prayer
The connection between music, worship, and spiritual formation
How the Psalms invite us into a deeper relationship with God
Enjoy!

This week we are talking Aldo Cazzullo about his book, "God of Our Fathers: the Great Stories of the Bible" where he connects some of the most well-known stories of the Bible to present day circumstances and shows how the Bible is a stunning literary achievement that contains the full breadth of the human experience.
Are you weary of hearing about how the Bible is nothing other than the "inerrant and perfect Word of God" that is to never be questioned, never doubted - little more than a rule book filled with rights and wrongs, dos and donts, and a blueprint of how to get to heaven?
Me too.
Pull up a chair and join Aldo and me as he shifts our perspective and ignites our wonder about these ancient writings.
Enjoy!

Friends.
This week we are talking to Dr. Richard Beck about his incredible book, "The Book of Love: A Better Way to Read the Bible". The reality is that we all have a particular lens through which we read the Bible along with a set of experiences we bring with us to the text. In his book, Richard helps us realize that and then suggests a different lens or prism through which to read it - love.
In these divided days that we are in where (let's face it!) lots of us are using the Bible to support our values or our beliefs or our candidates ... this book is a breath of fresh air and a challenge to let the Bible be what it is.
Enjoy!

Friends.
We have an incredible episode this week featuring John Dominic Crossan and Michael Okinczyc-Cruz talking about their recent book, “Jesus and Justice” - a book that is so, so important for these tense moments that we’re in.
In this episode, Dom and Michael invite us into the world Jesus actually lived in — a world of occupied shores, commercialized lakes, and an empire that called itself divine.
Sound familiar?
They ask what it means to follow a Jew who proclaimed distributive justice under the shadow of Rome, and what that following might demand of us now, when autocracy wears a cross.
This is not a conversation about belief. It is a conversation about becoming — about organizing like rain, walking into the wreckage, and letting the ancient land speak again
Lots to unpack. Enjoy.

Most of us were handed a script, right? THIS is what success looks like. THIS is what a good life is. THIS is what it means to be normal.
BUT.
What happens when that script starts to crack, when it just doesn't work anymore?
In this episode, I’m joined by MaryAnn McKibben Dana, author of the amazing book, Better Than Normal; and we talk about what it means to step off that script - especially when that might be scary, costly, or misunderstood.
We get into topics like anxiety, parenting, deconstruction, and the quiet courage it takes to live a life that actually fits who you are… instead of who you were told to be.
Yes.
What if “better than normal” isn’t out there somewhere, but begins the moment we stop trying to be what we think everyone expects us to be?

What happens to morality when the old rules no longer work?
For many of us raised in Evangelical or fundamentalist Christianity, ethics once felt clear: follow God’s commands, trust the Bible, and do the right thing. But when that framework begins to fall apart, moral decision-making can suddenly feel confusing ... even frightening.
In this episode of the What If Project, I’m joined by Dr. Scott Gelfand, author of Thinking Ethically: A Handbook for Making Moral Choices, to explore what it means to think ethically after certainty and obedience.
We talk about why moral choices so often live in gray areas, how ethical frameworks can help, how we (as a whole) are much more similar than we are different, and how the Political System we have built thrives when we are divided.
This conversation is especially for those navigating deconstruction or life after faith — and who are trying to rebuild a moral framework rooted in humility, compassion, and responsibility.
What if ethics isn’t about the certainty of one side being right and the other being wrong, but about learning how to live well together in the gray?

This week we are talking to Michael Leach. Michael served as Assistant to the Head Coach for the Chicago Bears, managed Labor Operations at NFL Headquarters, and become the first ever Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer for the White House under President Joe Biden. He recently released a wonderful book called "Faith Over Fear: Harnessing Resilience in the Face of Uncertainty" and he's joined us today to talk about it. We talk about the fear that comes with major life changes, navigating the complexities of childhood wounds, and how we can be a people who pursue unity without sacrificing our values.

This week NT Wright joins me to explore the vision behind his new book, God’s Homecoming: The Forgotten Promise of Future Renewal.
Many of us were raised with an end-times story that was focused on escape—going to heaven when we die, the rapture, and the destruction of the world.
BUT.
What if that was never the Christian hope?
In this conversation, NT Wright challenges fear-based eschatology and invites us into a different future: not leaving creation behind, but God renewing it. We talk about heaven, resurrection, new creation, and what the Bible actually says about the end times.
We also explore how this vision of hope speaks to real-world issues like political polarization, anxiety around "end times", and healing from evangelical and fundamentalist Christianity.
Are you deconstructing, rethinking faith, or searching for a way to imagine God without fear? This episode is for you!
In this episode, we discuss:
- Why “going to heaven when you die” became the dominant story
- What the Bible says about resurrection and new creation
- How fear-based end-times theology shaped evangelical Christianity
- What God’s “homecoming” means for how we live now

Friends, welcome to SEASON NINE of the podcast. To kick off a new season and a NEW YEAR (Happy New Year!) we're talking to a brand new guest - Dr. Hugo Mendez. Hugo is an associate professor in Ancient Mediterranean Religions at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He recently wrote a book called "The Gospel of John: A New History" and it is FANTASTIC - a must read if you want to know more about the Jesus story told (in particular) from the vantage point of John's Gospel. We talk about the background of the Gospel and the radical (very radical!) theology of the Gospel that doesn't always seem to make its way into churches today. Buckle up and enjoy!

Friends, welcome to the final episode of 2025. We're bringing the year (and season 8 of the podcast!) to a close with a new friend of the show - Amelia Hruby. Amelia wrote a book called "Your Attention is Sacred (Except on Social Media)" and she's on the show today to talk to us about some things we might not realize about social media and the way it impacts our everyday lives. I really set out to reform my social media use in 2025 and will do so even more in 2026. If you're in a place where you're realizing that how you currently use social media is having a negative impact on your soul ... this one is for you and will give you LOTS of practical things to ponder.

Friends. This week we are talking to Mory Fontanez about her book, "Higher Self: Reclaiming the Power of Your Intuition" and, let me tell you - this book is scratching me right where I itch.
I was raised in a world where I was told to DISTRUST the voice inside. Heck, I was even told it was a DEMON that needed to be CAST OUT and sent to the pits of hell.
You too?
Just me?
Anyways - Mory helps those of us who have been disconnected from that voice to reconnect with it so that we can hear and live from the deep wisdom it has to share.
We cover a lot of ground in this one - buckle up and ENJOY.

(**NOTE: I had some audio issues with the episode and so had to cut out a few seconds here and there which is why edits might be more noticeable this week).
If you grew up like me, in a conservative / fundamentalist / Evangelical world ... something in you likely cringed a bit when you saw the word "witchcraft" and "witch" in the title. It's OK to admit it - even the most "deconstructed" of us still twitch a bit when we hear these words.
But.
Friends - Judika is a real life Witch. Like, a practitioner of Witchcraft. She cast spells, has spell books for sale at Barnes and Noble. She's a well known voice in the world of Witchcraft and today she sits down with me to answer my questions and help me have a more mature, realistic, and less judgmental view of Witchcraft and Witches than the one I was given growing up in church, Bible College, etc. I learned A LOT from her.
And so, I wonder- can you put your baggage around these terms aside and hear what she has to say? She's one of the most gentlest souls I've ever had on the show.
Enjoy!

I recorded this episode back in January and am releasing it now - many, many months later. Why? It challenged me so much that before I let others in on it, I had to let the words and ideas and thoughts really permeate into my own being.
I recorded many conversations in 2025, but this is one of my top 2 or 3 favorites. Julia is Professor Emerita of Biblical Studies at Lancaster Theological Seminary and Moravian University and her specialty is in the prophets of the Old Testament. In this episode we talk about her book, “Prophets Beyond Activism” and touch on things like “Progressive Orthodoxy”, our obsessive “need to be right”, and how we often (on the Left and the Right!) force the Bible to fit into boxes that will strengthen our cases, back our values, and help us win arguments.
But.
Maybe?
What if … what if those stories and verses and books and characters that we fall back on to support our causes … what if their voices don’t have as much to say to our contemporary issues as we hope/want them to?
Enjoy!

In this episode of the What If Project, we down with theologian and author Dillon Naber Cruz to explore some ideas behind his amazing book, "Theological Musings." As the conversation unfolds, y’all are invited to deep dive into the intersection of theology, philosophy, and the human experience.
At the heart of the discussion is Dillon’s unique perspective on theology as a dynamic and evolving discourse, one that embraces ambiguity, diversity, and the continual search for meaning. Drawing from his extensive research and personal reflections, he spends his days challenging conventional notions of dogma and inviting us to embark on a journey of intellectual exploration and spiritual inquiry.
Buckle up, this is a good one.

It’s the final installment of our “Pride Podcast Takeover”. When my father passed away in March my friend Leo WT from Conversations Official offered to record a few solo episodes for Pride where they share a bit about their story and their passions revolving around Queer Theology, their recently completed thesis … and so much more. Leo is an incredible friend and is doing excellent work in the world. Listen in on this episode where they share a bit about their thesis, the intersection of theology and scientific discovery, and how theology is much more queer than we’ve been led to believe.

Hello friends. This is part 1 of a 3 part (bi-weekly) series where my friend Leo from the Conversations Official podcast takes over the show for Pride 2023. Leo is part of the LGBTQ community and passionate about Queer Theology, Interfaith work, and so much more. They'll introduce themselves in this episode and set up what to expect over the next couple.
Leo approached me back in April after my dad passed away and offered to do a few solo episodes for us regarding some things they're passionate about so as to help me out during this season of grief. I love the work that Leo is doing and have a ton of respect for them, their work, and the obstacles they've overcome ... and so I immediately said, "YES!".
Buckle up, and enjoy! Episodes will continue to drop bi-weekly after this series starting with a convo with Bart Ehrman that I'll drop on July 10.

We talk about how we become disconnected from our authentic selves, the power that habits play in our lives, overcoming the effects of religious fundamentalism ... and so much more.
I also have a CO-HOST doing the intro to the episode with me - my daughter, Jordan (5 years old), has been home sick for the last 4 days and is missing ALL of the fun school activities leading up to Christmas break and so she got to sit down at the mic with daddy for a few minutes to say hi to y'all.
Enjoy!

In this episode we look back on a conversation with my friend, the late Steve Austin. Steve committed suicide in the Summer of 2021 and left a gaping hole in the world. In this conversation you'll get a taste of the ray of hope he was to so many as he fought hard to destroy the stigma around mental health that the church has created.
The intro to the episode is from one of the What If Project Patreon supporters, Mike Koolen. Mike actually introduced me to Steve a while back and so his voice in this episode is a perfect fit.

Saying No To God (Matthew's Book)
"Although bumper stickers abound that propose otherwise, the Bible itself reveals that just because “God says it,” does not, in fact, mean “that settles it.” On the contrary, a close reading of Scripture reveals that God does not want us to blindly obey him, but rather, invites us to “lock hands” with him and fight. The purpose of this book is to show another way to understand the Bible, one in which readers are not asked to accept what God says, but on the contrary: to say no to it, not because they merely want to, but because the God of the Bible actually requires it."

"Take Pride" by Will Retherford
Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2BLunn3
Pitch:
Recorded in NYC with producers David Gungor and John Arndt of progressive indie band, The Brilliance, Will Retherford releases “Take Pride” as a LGBTQ+ anthem proclaiming affirmation, freedom, and acceptance. Other contributors include: James McAlister of Sufjan Stevens, Jarod Evans of Blackwatch Studios, and Huntley Miller, Mastering Engineer for Bon Iver, Zedd, and more.
Further Info:
As a straight white male, Will Retherford was compelled to write an advocate song for his queer friends and the larger LGBTQ+ community. He wrote this song on the same day as the wedding of his dear friends Sam & Haley Hedrick, in which one is transgender. As a long-time advocate for the queer community, Will has been frustrated at the great rejection of these people from society, church, and family. Will hopes this song brings healing to many and convicts the right people who are infected by homophobia. Although this song is for queer people, it belongs to all people who have been rejected, shut out, and told to change. “Take pride. Take heart.”
Artist Quote:
“Some of my queer friends have been the most important people in my life. This is a song to tell them to never change who they are and that they are very much loved.”
Artist Bio:
Artist and producer Will Retherford is known for writing about social constructs and post-spiritual ideas crafted with the sounds of orchestral dream pop and mild flavors of folk and indie rock. Inspired by his Anglican faith and participation in activism, Will seeks to unite people through the power of music and ideas in the everyday discovery of purpose and belonging.

It's the FINAL INSTALLMENT of our series, "Setting the Bible Free" and this week we sit down with theologian and scholar, Matthew Korpman, to talk about his new book (releasing DECEMBER 13, 2019), "Saying No To God: A Radical Approach To Reading The Bible Faithfully". In the episode Matthew talks to us about what deconstruction has looked like for him and explains to us how and why the Bible urges us to not only argue with God, but to say NO to God.

Saying No To God
"Although bumper stickers abound that propose otherwise, the Bible itself reveals that just because “God says it,” does not, in fact, mean “that settles it.” On the contrary, a close reading of Scripture reveals that God does not want us to blindly obey him, but rather, invites us to “lock hands” with him and fight. The purpose of this book is to show another way to understand the Bible, one in which readers are not asked to accept what God says, but on the contrary: to say no to it, not because they merely want to, but because the God of the Bible actually requires it."

SPECIAL MUSIC: Will Retherford
Further Info:
As a straight white male, Will Retherford was compelled to write an advocate song for his queer friends and the larger LGBTQ+ community. He wrote this song on the same day as the wedding of his dear friends Sam & Haley Hedrick, in which one is transgender. As a long-time advocate for the queer community, Will has been frustrated at the great rejection of these people from society, church, and family. Will hopes this song brings healing to many and convicts the right people who are infected by homophobia. Although this song is for queer people, it belongs to all people who have been rejected, shut out, and told to change. “Take pride. Take heart.”
Artist Quote:
“Some of my queer friends have been the most important people in my life. This is a song to tell them to never change who they are and that they are very much loved.”
Artist Bio:
Artist and producer Will Retherford is known for writing about social constructs and post-spiritual ideas crafted with the sounds of orchestral dream pop and mild flavors of folk and indie rock. Inspired by his Anglican faith and participation in activism, Will seeks to unite people through the power of music and ideas in the everyday discovery of purpose and belonging.

There's nothing wrong with aiming to do more in our lives in an effort to develop ourselves both personally and spiritually; but there is a problem when we buy into the lie which says that God has rigged the universe in such a way that the only way He can bless us if we work harder and do more.

This is by no means an exhaustive conversation, but a mere attempt to scratch the surface and present a different perspective. To be real with you, this is a topic I've become increasingly passionate about over the last few years of my life as I've watched hell, the threat of eternal torture, and the fear tactics that surround it all be used to generate anxiety, shame, guilt, and burdens that are contrary to the heart of God.

It's part 3 of our series for Lent, "God's Not Mad" and today we're talking about the cross. I don't know about you, but I was taught to believe that Jesus died on the cross because God was mad at my sin and so He took my punishment so that if I would "believe in Him" and "surrender to Him" I'd get to go to heaven when I die instead of hell. In short, my sin and everybody's sin is a big problem for God and Jesus is the answer.

For the next 4 weeks we'll be exploring a few themes / ideas from Richard Rohr's book, "Preparing For Christmas: Daily Meditations For Advent" and challenging ourselves to think different and bigger and deeper about Christmas. Today we talk about what it means to make room for Jesus in our world and our lives and how that room often comes from a very unlikely source.
In this week's episode we talk about the story of the widow who threw her last 2 coins into the offering plate in the Temple and how Jesus' words aren't so much a challenge for us to be like her, but a challenge for us to be UNLIKE the teachers who told her that that's what she needed to do. Have you ever felt guilty or ashamed for not putting money in the offering plate at church? Or are you a pastor or teacher who has poured it on hard in an effort to get people in your congregation to give more? Check out some different ideas around this well known story!

In today's episode we talk about the time Jesus asked 2 different people the same question - "what do you want me to do for you?" One person answered one way, another person answered another way and the big question is - how will YOU and I answer that question today. The way you answer can shape your prayers, which can change your attitude and approach to your life. Check it out!

In today's episode we talk about the time Jesus took some disciples up to a high mountain where He hovered into the sky and talked to Moses and Elijah all the while His clothes glowed bright white. Were Peter and the other disciples dreaming? Did they have too much pizza the night before? What's up with this odd story and what does it have to do with you and me?

In this week's episode we talk about the time Jesus called His disciple, Peter, Satan and how sometimes we act just like Peter and push back on Jesus because He's behaving in ways that our traditions have taught us are unacceptable, un-Christian, unholy, and un-religious. We'll touch on hell, LGBTQ inclusion, and the importance of being Jesus to those around us.

In this week's episode I talk about how my faith and understanding of God has developed to a place where when God has wiped the dust off His hands from His newly created heaven and earth, I think everyone who has ever lived will in some way, shape, or form have a place in His Kingdom. And I think that not because it's a nice thought, but because that's the kind of God I see in Jesus - a God who goes to Jews, to Gentiles, and to everyone in between and embraces them all with the same love and grace and acceptance. We talk about Jesus' feeding of the 5,000, His feeding of the 4,000, and what it all has to do with you and me and everyone who has ever lived. Check it out!

In Mark 6 Jesus chose 12 disciples. And in Mark 5 (we saw last week) He healed a girl who was 12 years old and a woman who had been bleeding for 12 years. Twelve, Twelve, Twelve ... what's the deal with 12? In today's episode we explore the number 12, what it was important to Mark's readers, and what it has to do with you, me, and every other human being in the world. Check it out!

In this week's episode we talk about the time Jesus raised a 12 year old girl from the dead and healed a woman who had been bleeding for 12 years and how His constant crossing from one side of the Sea of Galilee to the other in the book of Mark is a perfect illustration of Mark's bigger point that Jesus refuses to leave anyone behind or outside of His love and embrace ... AND is a challenge for you and me to walk in His footsteps, to refuse to leave anyone behind or outside of God's love.

In this week's episode I had the honor of sitting down with one of my favorite authors and teachers, Dr. Alexander Shaia (**link to his book is below!). We talked about the importance of reading the 4 Gospels of the New Testament in their historical context, how the 4 Gospels are actually reflective of a 4 stage process that every human being on earth travels through over and over and over again throughout their lifetime, and did a quick deep dive into the book of Mark since that's our current focus during this first season of the What If Project. Enjoy!

This week's episode is an audio version of the blog post at WhatIfProject.net where we talk about an odd story from Mark's Gospel where Jesus answered the prayer of a demon by sending it into a herd of 2,000 pigs that then bolted off a cliff and drowned - and people say the Bible isn't interesting, C'MON! We talk about what the 2,000 pigs might have represented in the story and why the Gospel writer told the story in the way that he did.

Today's episode is an audio version of this week's podcast and we're talking about the time the Pharisees and Religious Leaders accused Jesus of casting out demons by the power of Satan. Jesus turned their accusation on its head and then gave some profound insight into what He REALLY came to here to do - profound insight that might very well change EVERYTHING for you.

Today's episode is an audio version of this week's blog post where we explore the story of the 4 guys who were trying to get their paralytic friend to Jesus. The house Jesus was in was packed and so rather than push their way through the people, they dug a hole in the roof and lowered him in. The story is cool, but what's crazy is the way that Jesus made Swiss Cheese out of the theology of the people who were gathered there that day. And what's even crazier is how He's doing the same thing, today.

In this episode I sat down with pastor, professor, and LGBTQ rights activist Dr. Phil Snider to talk about how to read some of the verses that the church typically uses to push away and/or condemn the LGBTQ community through a more progressive, welcoming, and affirming lens.

This Fall we're blogging our way through the Gospel of Mark with a few pitstops along the way. Today's episode is an audio version of this week's post where we set the context of the book as being written to the Jewish Christians who were the targets of Emperor Nero after he blamed them for starting the fire that leveled the city. With that context in mind, Mark's presentation of "the Gospel" means something much greater and much more important than what we might typically hear in church on Sunday's. You can listen to it here or read all about it at whatifproject.net.
