Is there a problem with our theology if it doesn't make us more Christ-like?
That question lead my guest, Bruxy Cavey, on personal and theological journey into the Anabaptist tradition.
Bruxy is the senior pastor at The Meeting House in Ontario, Canada which is one of Canada's largest churches. An Anabaptist mega-church? Yes, that is a unique as it sounds.
Bruxy is also the author of the best-selling books Reunion: The Good News of Jesus for Seekers, Saints, & Sinners and The End of Religion: Encountering the Subversive Spirituality of Jesus.
In today's episode, I talk with Bruxy about:
-his unique journey of faith
-what makes the Anabaptist tradition unique & controversial
- the history of the "Radical Reformation" and why Anabaptists were killed for their beliefs by other Christians
-Tough questions about the Anabaptist commitment to non-violence & other challenges
And more!

Loved your discussion with Bruxy! One would hope other pastors will benefit from Bruxy's teaching mannerism as he models the fruit of the spirit verses the proudly unabashedly passionate bible thumpers that still surprisingly flourish. I guess many people sadly think they need to be yelled at to stay aligned with Jesus. Great podcast! Thank you.

Hey Paul! Love your channel and look forward to the beginning of the week when a new one comes out. Nice conversation with PVK too by the way. I live in PA in an area which has a large mennonite and amish presence. The last church my wife and I attended as well as the current one we are attending have mennonite roots. I grew up in the Lutheran church but wouldn't say i had a faith of my own until college. Definitely had a conversion experience and wound up getting a believer's baptism a few years ago. I guess I'm wondering now since I happen to live in this area if the anabaptist isn't nearly as prevalent as it seems here. Just starting to learn church history so I'm more of a newbie to this. Anyway thanks for all the podcasts!
