34. Were We Lied To About Hell? (Brian Recker's Story)

Were we lied to about hell?

This week, I am joined by Brian Recker, a pastor's kid, former minister, and author of Hell Bent. Brian asked the question most of us were taught to fear: Is the hell we grew up with actually biblical?

Brian shares how studying Scripture and church history unraveled fear-based theology and led him into a deeper and more loving experience of God. We talk about the harm of "turn or burn" messaging, what Jesus really taught, and how letting go of hell did not destroy Brian's faith, it healed it.

If you grew up terrified of eternal punishment, this conversation offers clarity, freedom, and hope.
