      <title>#082: Rituals for the Rest of Us with Jeremy Steele</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week on The God Squad Podcast… we’re getting a little holy, a little heretical, and just uncomfortable enough to matter.</p>
<p>Join Dillon Naber Cruz & Desimber Rose as they sit down with author Jeremy Steele to talk about his bold and timely new book, Rituals for Heretics—a guide for those who’ve outgrown rigid religion but still refuse to let go of the sacred.</p>
<p>Let’s be honest—some of us didn’t lose our faith… we just lost our tolerance for bad theology, spiritual gatekeeping, and traditions that feel more like control than connection. So what happens next? Jeremy offers something better than deconstruction burnout: intentional, meaningful practices for rebuilding a spiritual life that actually breathes.</p>
<p>Expect real talk about faith after certainty, spiritual habits without shame, and why being labeled a “heretic” might just mean you’re paying attention.</p>
<p>A little snark. A lot of truth. And maybe—just maybe—a way forward.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See <a href="https://pcm.adswizz.com">pcm.adswizz.com</a> for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.</p>]]></description>

      <title>#080: Red Letters, Real Faith, and Radical Love with Shane Claiborne</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week on The God Squad, we’re sitting down with one of the most provocative and inspiring voices in modern Christianity—Shane Claiborne.</p>
<p>Shane is a best-selling author, activist, and co-founder of Red Letter Christians, a movement centered on living out the actual words of Jesus—the “red letters”—with courage, compassion, and conviction.</p>
<p>From working alongside Mother Teresa in Calcutta to founding The Simple Way in Philadelphia, Shane has spent his life embodying a faith that refuses to stay comfortable. He’s been arrested advocating for the homeless, stood in war zones calling for peace, and challenged the Church to take Jesus seriously—not just spiritually, but socially and politically.</p>
<p>This week's conversation will dive deep into what it really means to follow Jesus in a world shaped by nationalism, division, violence, and injustice.</p>
<p>🔥 Is Christianity meant to be a tool of power—or a path of sacrifice?</p>
<p>🔥 What happens when we actually live like Jesus meant what He said?</p>
<p>🔥 And how do we reclaim a faith rooted in love, justice, and radical mercy?</p>
<p>If you’ve ever wrestled with the gap between the Church and Christ… this conversation is for you.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week on The God Squad, Dillon Naber Cruz and Desimber Rose sit down with Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg, the acclaimed Jewish scholar and author of <i>On Repentance and Repair: Making Amends in an Unapologetic World</i>. In a time when public apologies are often little more than PR damage control, Rabbi Ruttenberg brings ancient Jewish wisdom to a modern crisis of accountability.</p>
<p>Drawing from the teachings of the medieval philosopher Maimonides, Rabbi Ruttenberg explains what real repentance actually requires—truth-telling, repair of harm, and meaningful transformation—not just empty words. Together, Dillon and Desimber explore how these principles apply not only to personal relationships but also to public life, politics, institutions, and faith communities.</p>

      <title>#078: Foreign Policy According to Revelation with Matthew J. Distefano</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>What Happens When Foreign Wars Get a Bible Verse?</p>
<p>This week, Dillon’s seat is being held down by author and theologian Matthew J. Distefano, who joins Desimber to unpack a week where geopolitics apparently came with a side of Revelation commentary.</p>
<p>First up: the newly launched war with Iran, which has already escalated across the region after coordinated U.S.– Israel strikes triggered retaliation and widening conflict in the Middle East. But the real theological curveball? Reports from service members say some commanders are telling troops the conflict is part of “God’s divine plan” and tied to biblical end-times prophecy. In other words, apparently foreign policy is now being drafted somewhere between the Pentagon and the Book of Revelation.</p>
<p>Then we turn to the latest primary results, including the closely watched Texas Senate primary, where state Rep. James Talarico emerged as the Democratic nominee after defeating Rep. Jasmine Crockett in a race that drew national attention and could reshape the political map in a state long considered untouchable for Democrats. If Texas starts shifting, the political earthquake will be felt all the way to Washington.</p>
<p>We’ll dig into the uncomfortable question underneath it all: What happens when Christian Nationalism starts shaping foreign policy, war narratives, and electoral politics? Also joining the conversation is Matthew J. Distefano, author and voice behind some of the sharpest critiques of toxic theology today.</p>
<p>Together we’ll explore how faith can inspire justice and compassion — without turning geopolitics into a prophecy chart. Because when politicians start talking about Armageddon like it’s a strategic objective, somebody probably needs to open the Bible and remind them what Jesus actually said about peace.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Dillon & Desimber are sitting down with author and podcaster Stuart Delony, creator of Snarky Faith and writer of the delightfully timely new book The Tribulation Survival Guide — because apparently, we’re all living in the group project from Revelation and nobody agreed to the assignment.</p>
<p>Stuart has built a following calling out toxic theology, spiritual manipulation, and end-times fear-mongering with wit, wisdom, and just enough holy sarcasm to keep it honest. In this episode, we’ll unpack why so many Christians are addicted to apocalyptic panic, what it actually means to survive spiritual chaos with your faith intact, and how snark might just be a spiritual gift.</p>
<p>If you’ve ever wondered whether we’re in the tribulation or just in late-stage capitalism with a Bible verse slapped on it — this one’s for you.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

      <title>#076: Reconstructing Your Faith Without Losing Your Mind with Dr. Kevin Young</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week, the God Squad sits down with Author and Pastor Dr. Kevin Young, whose insightful new book "Reconstruct Your Faith: An Ancient Relationship for a Modern World" flips the script on everything we thought we knew about faith, doubt, and what it actually looks like to follow Jesus in an age of distraction and disillusionment. Whether you’ve ever wondered how ancient wisdom still applies to your daily walk, or you’re wrestling with questions no one seems brave enough to ask, Kevin brings clarity, courage, and a whole lot of compassion to the table.</p>
<p>Dillon & Desimber dig into Kevin’s journey, why reconstructing faith doesn’t mean abandoning it, and how we can recover a faith that grows us instead of numbing us. Expect sharp conversation, deep reflection, and the kind of honest theological dialogue you won’t hear anywhere else.</p>
<p>Tune in every Thursday at 8 PM EST — if you’ve ever felt like your faith needs more truth and less hype, this episode is for you.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
