In this heresy-flavored episode of the Christian AF Podcast, Jesse, Jen, and Evan sit down with resident dispensationalism whisperer (and trauma-sharing expert) Jeff Swanson to break down one of the most influential and weirdly persistent frameworks in evangelical thought.
We’re talking Left Behind. Charts. Rapture timelines. Helicopter-locust hybrids. Why your grandma had a Bible thicker than your thigh. And what it means when churches care more about the end of the world than living like Jesus right now.
Spoiler: Jesus is still coming back. Probably not tomorrow. Maybe chill?
So pour a drink, grab your notebook (or don’t), and jump into Part 1 of our deep dive into a theology that somehow gave us both Tim LaHaye and folded laundry in the apocalypse.
🎶 Also: Jesse's band The Lone Canary has a new album coming, and you can help make it happen!

🍻 EPISODE DRINKING NOTES:
PRAIRIE STREET BREWING CO – Oatmeal Stout
Rockford, IL
Stout | Smooth & rich | River-adjacent? Possibly.
STARBUCKS – Blonde Roast
Probably Jeff's safe space
Highly caffeinated clarity in a cup
GUINNESS – Extra Stout
Ireland (obviously)
Dark. Classic. Never goes out of style.
DR. PEPPER – Drive-Thru Edition
Burger King
Pairs well with disappointment and missing burger patties.
