What This Pastor Admitted About Seminary Should Worry You

About this episode

The episode discusses a pastor's unsettling admission about seminary and its impact on faith.

A pastor just made one of the most honest—and unsettling—admissions I’ve heard about seminary. “Seminary was basically where I was radicalized… away from Jesus.” And it didn’t happen in a debate… It happened in a casual, honest conversation. In this video, I break down: -Why debates often hide what people really believe -What this reveals about modern seminary training -How financial incentives shape doctrine and outcomes -And why the New Testament model looks very different Do you prefer formal debates, or honest, open conversations? Let me know what you think in the comments. 📺 LINKS: Same Guy that Went To Witch Seminary: Do They Hear Themselves?
