OM DENNE PODKAST 🔗
Inspired by G.K. Chesterton's book Heresy, "Why I'm Not" is a one-season podcast about my journey in and through Christian fundamentalism. Far from an academic treatment of any topic, this is more like a friendly coffee conversation centered around big ideas about God, the Bible, ministry, and life.
This project began as simple live video broadcasts on Facebook that surprisingly received thousands of views and inspired no shortage of dialogue, both online and off. After hearing from several folks who wanted access to the content — and since Facebook deletes videos after thirty days — I decided to recreate the material as a single-season podcast.
Join me on a journey of verbal processing and theological reflection. The mental road trip is paved with 80s and 90s pop culture references. No apologies. Whether you agree, disagree, or are simply undecided about topics I discuss, I hope these episodes inspire you to think and maybe even crack open your Bible and consider why you believe what you do.
Here's the episode list:
Episodes 1 and 2 released in late December 2025. A new episode will drop every Monday starting on January 5th.

Was Jonathan Edwards a heretic for believing he could own other humans?
How can we give him a pass for being a product of the spirit of his age, and then critique others today for views we believe are too influenced by our times?
These are some of the points I'll hit as I introduce "Why I'm Not," a…

Did you know one of the most influential figures in American fundamentalism was a con artist who ditched his family, did time in jail, and then got rich selling a study Bible?

In 2006, Calvinism was making a comeback. Evangelicalism was buzzing, and Christianity Today gave the moment a name: “Young, Restless, and Reformed.” Southern Seminary was given the label “ground zero.”

Some people try to put God in a box. In this episode, I try to put him in a bucket. Listen all the way through, and you'll figure out what I mean.
I’m sharing this episode, not just because I’m not a young earth creationist and want to explain why. It’s really more than that. I think this issue has…
I've heard people bark in the Spirit. I've seen people roll in the Spirit. I've also sat in Baptist churches that might not know the Spirit if He slapped them in the face.

In this episode, I unpack why I no longer buy into arguments that the gifts of prophecy and tongu…
I still have nightmares about a movie my fundamentalist church made me watch as a kid: A Thief in the Night. It was a groovy 1970s horror film built on bad theology—and a lot of fear.
That theology was dispensationalism, a system invented in the 1800s by John Nelson Darby and later popularized in t…
Some doctrinal positions require so much cherry-picking you’d think we were baking a pie. We’re all capable of it. That’s why sensitive topics deserve honest engagement with all the relevant texts—not just our favorites.
Because of the complexity of the biblical texts, and the theological whack-a-m…

Rumors of my deconversion are greatly exaggerated.
I’ve had some folks I’ve worked with in the past speculate I’m walking away from faith. I heard it through the grapevine. Trust me, it’s not true. As if.
Some of y’all need to take a chill pill.
They’ve said that’s me in the corner, that’s me in th…
