Pastor With No Answers (and friends) Podcast

By: Joey Svendsen
  • Summary

  • Love and listening rather than polarizing and cancelling, these are laid back conversations but only for grown ups. Joey Svendsen is a pastor who found no choice but to embrace mystery rather than toil with what he felt was the impossibilities of systematic theology. He found freedom in this shift but still hangs with many "systematic theologically-wired" people. Join him, his regular co-hosts and many special guests from all over the "theological map" (evangelicals and atheists included) as they discuss God, church, culture, tragedy, mental illness. Love will win. Might as well join the team.

  • EP56 - God Still Mad at You, Bro?
    Jan 27 2025

    [This episode has Robbie Madison, Jed Payne and Joey Svendsen in it]

    Feels like a chill time of encouragement amongst three friends, like it's a church small group. Robbie sheds some light on the fallacy that "only good things should happen because of God," Jed still struggles with the concept of a "tit for tat" God, and Joey tries to encourage Jed with his own journey along the same lines after he shuts up about a recent UFO sighting of his.

  • EP55 - Books Are Awesome. Depression is Not.
    Jan 9 2025

    On this episode, Joey goes through his favorite books of 2024 and shares an episode he put together on a different podcast in which he crammed his whole mental health crisis story of 2019 into a 45-minute episode (quite the feat, hell to the yeah). Special thanks to John Mark McMillan for narrating this one.

  • EP54 - Does Santa and Elaborate Gift-Giving Conflict with The Gospel?
    Dec 19 2024

    [Produced by Hayne Griffin, this episode has Hayne, Robbie Madison and Joey Svendsen]

    Christmas Playlist Apple Music I Spotify

    For the final episode of the year, Hayne rounds Joey and Robbie up for some Christmas talk, picking up where they left off last year in "Baby, It's Cold Outside (EP13)," the last episode these three talked Christmas for an hour. Today they talk whether or not the brilliance of the movie Four Christmases is all due to Vince Vaughn's humor. They deliberate on whether Santa and elaborate gift-giving conflicts with the purity of the true Gospel story, and consider if the German tradition of “night of Saint Nick” may be a better option. The three go in to a bit of the history of that tradition and reflect on Christmases past, how their parents implemented Santa into their childhood christmases and how they have walked this season out with their kids currently as parents themselves. They also manage to fit in a conversation about a scientific study on guys' need for quality “guy-time.”
