Episode 149 - Mission Trips: Blessings, Bugs, and Burnout

Are mission trips changing lives—or just locations? ✈️🌍

In this final part of our two-episode dive into Christian mission trips, Nate and Pastor Joseph ask the uncomfortable question: When does “doing good” turn into religious tourism?

This episode is part reflection, part roast, and totally honest. Whether you’ve been on 10 trips, fundraised for one, or just wondered why your church is always flying out when there’s work to be done down the street… we’re talking about it.

🎙️ Episode 150 – From Worthwhile to Christian Tourism explores the real motivations behind mission trips, the difference between genuine service and Instagram optics, and why the term “called to go” sometimes sounds a lot like “called to take PTO.”

Episode 150 – Mission Trips: From Worthwhile to Christian Tourism

🥴 Is it spiritual… or just skipping lunch?

In this episode, Nate and Pastor Joseph break down fasting—not the cute, curated version, but the real, biblical one. From juice cleanses disguised as devotionals to guilt-fueled church fasts, they tackle the confusion, comedy, and convictions around how modern Christians view this ancient practice.

Whether you’ve fasted out of faith, peer pressure, or forgot to eat… this episode unpacks what Jesus actually meant—and what we’ve made it mean.

With their signature wit and unfiltered honesty, the guys cover:
	•	What fasting isn’t (spoiler: a diet plan)
	•	Why “just pray more” isn’t the answer
	•	The tension between spiritual discipline and burnout
	•	And the hilarious, awkward pressure of public fasts

This is not your average sermon recap. It’s the convo we all wish our small group would have—smart, sarcastic, and deeply honest.

Episode 151 – Fasting: What It Is… and What It Definitely Isn’t

Is the church evolving… or just slowly fading out?

In this episode, Nate and Pastor Joseph unpack the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways secularism is reshaping the American church—from cultural Christianity and cringey compromises to the real reasons people are walking away. With their usual balance of sarcasm, insight, and honesty, the duo dives into what happens when tradition clashes with a society moving further from faith.

Whether you’re deconstructing, reconstructing, or just spectating, this convo will make you think (and probably laugh). Is secularism the villain… or the mirror?

Episode 152 – Losing Our Religion: How Secularism Is Shaping the American Church

What happens when political influence meets national tragedy?
In this In the Headlines episode, Nate and Pastor Joseph weigh in on the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk — and what it means for American culture, Christian politics, and the ever-blurring lines between pulpit, platform, and protest. They dive into faith, media, and the raw tension of leadership in a divided nation, with their signature wit and unfiltered honesty.

This one’s part analysis, part commentary, part wait… did they just say that?

Spiritual warfare isn’t just about demons and deliverance.
Sometimes it looks like burnout, shame, temptation, confusion… or the lies you tell yourself on a Tuesday afternoon.

In this episode, Nate and Pastor Joseph go deep—but with plenty of sarcasm and side-eyes—into what the Bible really says about spiritual warfare. Spoiler alert: it’s less ghost stories, more everyday battles.

Whether you grew up thinking spiritual warfare was all about casting out devils, or you’ve never heard the term but keep fighting unseen struggles, this conversation breaks it down without sounding like a sermon.

Episode 153 – Spiritual Warfare Isn’t What You Think It Is

Spiritual warfare isn’t just demons and dramatic church folks.
This week, Nate and Pastor Joseph continue the convo on spiritual warfare—minus the smoke machines and exorcism clichés. Think less “Hollywood horror” and more real-world spiritual struggle: burnout, doubt, distractions, and that one Christian friend who swears everything is “a spirit.”

In true When I Heard This fashion, the guys mix hard truth, real-life church experiences, and a healthy amount of sarcasm to break down what spiritual warfare actually looks like. No cheesy sermons. No spooky sound effects. Just honest discussion, biblical perspective, and enough side-eye to keep it interesting.

What happens when a comedian asks a pastor whatever he wants?? 😮
