unBetween

Giving It The Sense

As we wrap up 2022, we reflect on the past year of life, podcasting, and uncertainty. It has been a busy year and many things have happened. Our discussion covers things like our failed attempts to plan out our lives, the importance of community, seeking clarity over comfort, and many other things. 
We are excited about what is to come for the unBetween podcast over the next year as we seek to have even more conversations around loving God and people well in this tension we occupy.

A Spirit Reborn with Jason Truby

Jason Truby is back to continue our conversation about his experiences as a musician and a Christian, but a lot of our time is spent reflecting on the nature of our lives as people of faith, and how, at the end of the day, the only question that really matters is "Do you know Him?"
 
Jason Truby has worn a lot of musical hats over the years - from metal, to hard rock, to acoustic, to fingerstyle, and a few other stops along the way. He was a founding member of Living Sacrifice and lead guitarist for P.O.D., but the uniting factor in all of his endeavors is the desire to create honest art that reflects the greatness of God, the original Artist.

Death to Deconstruction with Joshua S. Porter (Pt.2)

The second part of our conversations with our favorite art punk prophet. Josh Porter has a new book out, and he was gracious enough to return to the mic to talk with us about it!

Metaphors In Motion with Jason Truby

Jason Truby has worn a lot of musical hats over the years - from metal, to hard rock, to acoustic, to fingerstyle, and a few other stops along the way. He was a founding member of Living Sacrifice and lead guitarist for P.O.D., but the uniting factor in all of his endeavors is the desire to create honest art that reflects the greatness of God, the original Artist.
Jason is down-to-earth, personable, and humble, but also deeply reflective and insightful, so we were smiling laughing, and deeply moved during this conversation - often all at the same time!

Level Up (It’s Not What You Think)

You perhaps have heard the phrase "level up" thrown around as some kind of pseudo-inspirational sound bite intended to give you an excuse to pursue goals that, at the end of the day, are more about you and what you want than what good you can do for other people.
But there are times in our lives when we're called to leave our comfortable ruts, shift up a gear, and take on a new level of responsibility and calling. Our own desires, comfort, and success don't necessarily factor - but a classic Nintendo game just might!

Comfort, Convenience, or Conviction

In a world where there are so many things we are told we need or should do, what are we really pursuing? 
 
In this episode we talk through the pursuit of comfort and convenience over the pursuit of God and the misconception that as followers of Christ, life should be smooth and free of trouble.

These Are Your Gods

"Celebrate yourself!" is a refrain that can seemingly be heard shouted from every cultural street corner these days, regardless of whether you're on standing the left or the right side of the tracks.
In this episode, we talk about the deep-seated pull to selfishness both inside the church and outside, and how Christ calls us to live a different way.

Disney, Hillsong, & VHS Tapes

Sometimes art is something we experience on a cultural level. There are media monoliths out there creating content that shapes our society, and not always for the better. What should a believer's response be when art enters our circles of influence - especially when it's coming from a source that's supposedly "safe"?
We wade through the ins and outs of what's put Disney and Hillsong in the news lately, and ponder whether we're as tuned in as we should be to what's happening in our own homes.

The Holiness of Imagination with Nao Glover

Nao Glover is a musician, writer, communicator, and the editor of HM Magazine, which explores all the avenues of heavy music, and that made by people of faith in particular.
We talk about her experiences in music, explore her master's thesis about the value of implicit communication in art, and an excellent blog she wrote about unhealthy expectations found in modern worship culture.
