Unashamed with the Robertson Family

Jase heads into deep-blue territory expecting one thing and finds thousands of people who don’t fit the political stereotype, sparking a conversation about Christianity’s tendency to thrive under pressure. Kyle Thompson, host of “Undaunted Life” and “The Daily Blade,” joins the guys to confront the male loneliness crisis that leaves too many men surrounded by buddies but without anyone they can truly call when life falls apart. The guys also look at why real brotherhood requires accountability, investment, and the willingness to be known rather than simply appearing strong.

In this episode: Genesis 1, verse 28; Genesis 2, verse 18; Genesis 2–3; Isaiah 64, verse 6; Mark 2, verses 1–12; Mark 6, verse 7; John 11, verse 16; John 11, verses 33–35; John 14, verse 6; John 21, verses 1–14; Acts 17, verses 26–27; Romans 8, verse 26

Al, Jase, and Zach take a fresh look at the expectations placed on women through the story of two very different sisters, including what happens when one steps outside the role her culture expected. The guys wrestle with the double standards people create for different personalities and why being “wired differently” never excuses jealousy, control, selfish ambition, or a bad attitude. They also look back at Phil’s first reaction to the idea of podcasting—a story that may make a lot more sense once the original “lost” episodes that eventually became “Unashamed” start dropping soon.

In this episode: James 3, verses 17–18; Luke 10, verses 38–42; John 11, verses 17–27; John 11, verses 32–35; James 4, verse 7; Matthew 13, verses 1–23; John 15, verses 1–8; Matthew 7, verses 16–20; Romans 12, verse 9; Matthew 10, verses 34–39

Christian, John Luke, Zach, and Al dig into one of Christianity’s oldest debates: whether righteousness comes from human effort or the grace of God. John Luke opens up about spending years trying to be “good enough,” only to realize that discipline and good habits could never replace a real relationship with God. Plus, Christian learns that Jase has apparently started blaming him for a few new studio grievances.

In this episode: Matthew 5, verse 48; Psalm 136; James 2, verse 17; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 1–2; Romans 7, verses 24–25; John 17, verse 3; Ephesians 2, verse 8; Romans 5, verses 2 and 5; 1 Corinthians 13, verse 13

Today’s conversation is about Lesson 5 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors. Take the course with us at no cost to you!

More about Theology 101:

Examine the great questions of Western theology from the ancient Hebrews through today. The gift of speech, or reason, given by God to man, enables us to think about God and to worship Him.

This free online course pursues this purpose by examining the nature of God as revealed in the Bible, exploring the great theological questions and controversies of the early Christian church, studying the history of the Reformation and Counter-Reformation, and much more.

We invite you to join us and explore the nature of the relationship between God and man, and how a proper understanding of this relationship can lead to a free and happy life.

Jase remembers the priceless moment Phil quoted one of his favorite verses, only to double-check the Bible when Jase added the terms and conditions that came next. Jase, Al, and Zach also honor the life of longtime mentor Jim McGuiggan and reflect on the responsibility of carrying forward the faith, wisdom, and example of the great men and women who came before them. Their study of James turns to the kind of heavenly wisdom that trades pride, retaliation, and hidden agendas for purity, peace, gentleness, mercy, and sincere relationships.

In this episode: James 3, verses 13–18; Matthew 5, verse 8; 1 John 3, verse 3; Hebrews 11, verses 35–40; Hebrews 12, verses 4, 7, and 11; Job 3, verses 25–26; Matthew 5, verses 38–40; Philippians 4, verse 5; 1 Peter 3, verse 15

Jase learns that his advice may have been the final straw for a young couple, but he stands by his guidance. Zach’s confiscation of a lost and found pair of sunglasses sparks a funny lesson about why parenting doesn’t end when children grow up, move away, or get married. The guys turn to James 3 to examine how selfish ambition, hidden motives, and the need to win can quietly destroy marriages and other relationships. The guys also consider the “irony of Jesus,” a carpenter who showed little interest in buildings because he came to build his church and bring God’s family back together.

In this episode: Matthew 8, verses 19–20; Philippians 4, verses 11–13; 1 John 5, verse 19; James 3, verses 16–18; 1 John 3, verses 11–15; Hebrews 12, verses 11–17; Matthew 5, verses 8–9; James 1, verse 19
