For episode two of our new raw and uncut series "Messy Conversations", I spoke to my friend "Jesus Undefeated" author Keith Giles. We talk about the three dominant afterlife doctrines of the early church, Keith's own evolving views, why it matters what we believe about the afterlife, and how Keith handles very public (and often, mean-spirited) criticism. Keith is a co-host of the Heretic Happy Hour Podcast. Check out Keith's blog here. Keith writes incredible books that challenge, educate, and inspire us to follow Jesus more closely. I highly recommend Jesus Untangled, Jesus Unbound, Jesus Unveiled, and his latest (and possibly, best) book, Jesus Undefeated. Keith helps people navigate the rough road of deconstruction/reconstruction through his comprehensive Back to Square One program. Keith has given himself entirely to the work of writing and podcasting and he is making a real difference in the lives of real people who might otherwise feel alone. Please consider supporting his important work on Patreon. You can follow Keith on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. If you haven’t already, please follow our show on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram as well. We’d love for you to join the conversation over on our private FB group exclusively for listeners of this podcast- Messy Conversations. Please consider supporting this podcast on Patreon! In exchange for your generous support (starting for as little as $1 per month) you can get cool perks like early access to every episode of the podcast and a free copy of my new book releasing later this year! Also exclusively on Patreon-I'm starting a "Religion Rehab" online book club specifically for those on the deconstruction/reconstruction journey. I'll send you one book and host two online video conferences per month (one in December) to help you navigate the journey of rebuilding faith when you no longer believe what you've always believed. You don't have to do this alone. There are thousands of us on that same journey. We'll get through this together. Get bonus content on Patreon
