Happy 500th Podcast, Paeter!

We wanted to congratulate the recent 500th episode of Spirit Blade Underground, one of the first Christian geek podcasts we discovered back in the day, and the only one of those that is still producing content. Paeter Frandsen has done an excellent job in consistently producing high-quality podcasts.

On that epiosde, Paeter announced that the podcast would be re-branding itself as "Christian Geek Central" with episode 501, to continue to tie in to other branding changes that he has made.

To hear more about the development of Spirit Blade podcasts and audio dramas, listen to episode 6 of our show, Dorkness to Light, where we spoke with Paeter Frandsen.

What is Arminianism?

We have mentioned that we identify with the theological system of Arminianism, and have recommended the Remonstrance podcast as a place that explores that theological system in depth.

On episode 5 of the podcast, they discussed in depth the question "What does it mean to be an Arminian?" It is a good discussion of what the term means, and more importantly, what it does not mean.

Christianity, the Church and Abuse

Rachael Denhollander was one of more than 150 girls and women to be abused by Dr. Larry Nasser, when he was employed by USA Gymnastics. In her statement in court, at Dr. Nasser's sentencing hearing, Denhollander spoke of her Christian faith.

In a recent interview with Christianity Today, Denhollander discusses how the assault effected her views of God. She also speaks about how her church failed her after her abuse, and how poorly prepared many evangelical churches are to deal with victims of sexual abuse.
