This week we do a special Advent podcast with a man who is known for understanding the incarnation with the best of them. Father Kenneth Tanner talks about his journey, but most of all the importance of what the incarnation of Jesus actually is.

This episode was one like no other. We set out to interview Jonathan Mitchell and his wife Linda, who after 60 years of studying Greek, realized something was off with our translations. Not that the translations were wrong per se, but they weren’t giving us the big picture. However, that’s not where this conversation went. We believe in the freedom of the Spirit, and obviously it wanted us to go a different direction. If you want t...

Dr. C. Baxter Kruger is a world-renowned theologian who specializes in his knowledge of the Trinity and the idea of no separation from God.

Dr. Kruger has gone on to write many books, but today we talk about the idea that union with Christ is the most important aspect...
For the last 500 years there has been a rift between the Protestant Church and the Catholic Church. Both think they’re right and both think the other are the heretics.

Pastor Scott sits down with local Missoula priest Father Hightower to talk about these differences in a fun yet informative wa...
Our guest today is David Artman, who is the host of another podcast called “Grace Saves All.” This ancient Christian theology was advocated by prominent Christian leaders in the early centuries of the faith, and it is now enjoying a modern revival. It understands grace to be the effective saving presence of God in the lives of all people, and it anticipates that all persons will finally experience union with God.
Scott brings Archbishop Alexander Golitzin on the podcast to talk about the relationship of Israel in the Old Testament to the church now. Western theology has mixed up views on what Israel being “God’s chosen nation” actually means, and it has caused disunity within the evangelical church. Bishop Alexander is an archbishop of the Orthodox Church in America and is a master of the Old Testament, so we are excited to hear his thought...

Pastor Scott sits down with Father Harman Thomas on the deck of Bayern Brewing to talk about Harman’s journey to becoming an Anglican priest in Missoula, MT. They also discuss different theological views, yet being comfortable with mystery and okay with saying “I don’t know.” Harman believes the main point is that Jesus wins, and in the end, it’s not about having all your theological ducks in a row…it’s “Do you have a living and vi...
In this episode of the Zootown Podcast, Pastor Scott talks with special guest Peter Hiett - author, pastor, and founder of Relentless Love - about his background and the journey that led him to Universal Calvinism. By embracing the idea that Jesus actually wins, all the complicated things with Scripture go away and it becomes more beautiful…a beautiful truth that God is making us in His image and He won’t fail. Peter also shares hi...
