Together, they unpack why Christianity is facing increased skepticism, and how believ...

Most of us think an apology is simple: “I’m sorry.”

But what if that’s exactly why it keeps falling flat?

In this episode, Chad “Rev Rx” Potts sits down with bestselling author Charles Martin to talk about the story behind the storyteller: a Huck Finn-style childhood, learning to process life through writing, getting rejected 86 times before a “yes,” and why Charles believes the most important question isn’t “What’s God’s will for my life?”—it’s “Where do You want me to put my foot next?”

This week on the Rev Rx Podcast, Chad sits down with Christian apologist Tim Barnett for one of the most important and honest conversations the church needs today.
