ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Chase Replogle is a pastor, author, and podcast host who serves as pastor of Bent Oak Church in Springfield, Missouri. He is the author of A Sharp Compassion and The 5 Masculine Instincts, drawing on Scripture, history, psychology, and literature to help readers think more deeply about faith and life. Chase also hosts the Pastor Writer Podcast, where he interviews Christian authors on writing and publishing, and his work has been featured by outlets such as Christianity Today, The Gospel Coalition, and Good Morning America.In this episode of Created In The Image of God, Chase joins Wade for a wide-ranging conversation about Scripture, judgment, masculinity, and the slow work of spiritual formation. Drawing from his expository preaching, his Let’s Talk Bible teaching project, and his own writing, Chase explores judgment as something more than punishment: a revealing, an uncovering, a bringing into the light of what is false and what is true.Together, they also discuss the pressures surrounding modern masculinity and why Christian maturity is not about denying masculine instinct or blindly indulging it, but letting it be shaped into wisdom, character, and compassion. This is a conversation about identity, discipleship, and the hidden leaven of the kingdom working its way through ordinary lives.
