Christians are Crazy -or- How Insider Church Culture Looks to Those on the Outside

Christians Are Crazy — or at least that’s what it can look like from the outside. In this tongue-in-cheek episode of the Nerd of Godcast , we take an honest look at the things church people do that seem perfectly normal to us but downright strange to anyone outside church culture. From singing about blood to raising hands and praying hedges of protection, we unpack the weird, wonderful, and occasionally cringey parts of Christian life — and how we can better represent our faith to a watching world. We also cast our votes in this week’s Best Thing Ever tournament bracket, sit down with Eric Anderson , author of Dead False Gods , to talk faith and Stargate, and assign what might just be our worst Dumpster-Dive homework of the season. If you’ve ever thought, “Christians are kind of crazy,” or if you’re one of us and want to laugh at ourselves while growing a little wiser — this episode is for you.
