Welcome to Without Reform! We will be running multiple conversations side by side, so make sure to check out the episode title to know which thought train you are about to embark on.

This is Rabbit Trails. Our main focus will be modern church culture, deconstruction and how we got here/where do we go. Join in to hear why Joel thinks we might need to burn down the whole modern concept of church and how it parallels past times in the bible and church history. Friends will join in on the journey to discuss the points, tell Joel why he is wrong and ultimately find a path forward towards discovering the Real and Living God.

In this episode join Joel Meyer and Robert as they discuss ideology and epistemology in regards to grace and goodness. We revisit Jonah, what it can mean to love Jesus without loving Christianity and get a little bit more of a sense of why burning it down keeps getting brought up.

In this episode join Joel Meyer, Robert, and Nathan Stanley as they discuss control in the modern church culture. We veer into how personalities and perception both limit and enhance our ability to move towards God in a community. We chase down what it means to await God's leading expectantly and what can happen during the process. Enjoy!

In this episode join Joel Meyer, Robert, Brian Cooper and Nathan Stanley (we don't believe in Oxford commas here) as they discuss the concept of legacy in contrast with last episodes concept of heritage. Does success actually signal our doom? Can pop culture references really outline core spiritual truths in the same way parables can? Do our differences enhance our ability to connect with the Real and Living God? We hope you enjoy!

In this episode join Joel Meyer and Robert as they discuss heritage. This one follows a winding road to get back to exactly where we want to be. Is that how our past works though? Do we decide things in our present based on our past and how we feel about it? Can we see the same patterns in different churches and in the bible? Follow along on a narrowing experience towards a good end.

In this episode join Joel Meyer and Robert as they discuss a quote from the literary world and frolic through conversations pertaining to how we be happy, Jesus holding our happiness, do modern christian tropes have any real meaning, and how do we engage more fully as part of a body. As we are progressing through these conversations our end goal is becoming more clear. Keep following along!

In this episode join Joel Meyer, Brian Cooper, and Robert for a discussion that takes a little bit to get rolling. We learn that Coop has a substack and we are uncertain of beginnings, before we get into gatekeeping, building mistrust, the economics of church, treating the church as an organic situation on a local level, and why I have chosen to frame my arguments this way.

In this episode join Joel Meyer and Robert for a discussion on how little we actually understand about the Kingdom of God. What does it mean to live under an authority that may or may not be nearby? How does our understanding of telling people to join something influence our engagement with the Kingdom? Can we walk alongside God in our day to day lives? All these questions and more on today's episode.

*Editor's note: We had to stop abruptly due to a family emergency part way through recording the first half and picked it up a couple weeks later. Its choppy in the middle. I'm not good at this. Hope you enjoy anyways!

In this episode join Joel Meyer and Robert for a partial discussion about anarchy and structure. The main focus of the episode revolves around how to keep tension in important sectors of our lives-- the priest class and money. Have pastors replaced themselves as our high priests? Do we view money as a way to remember the poor or as a leverage point towards more glory for ourselves? Brian Cooper joins in half way through and we discuss what we view as the actual church as well as devolving into riffing on a bunch of topics. One of which is language. There are unedited swear words in this episode and it has been marked as explicit for that reason.
