What do you do to get under the layer to really get down to those lower levels? Is it just follow-up questions, mindset, worldview, and how that works for you? How'd you get this job anyway? What are things like around here? What did your boss do before they were your boss? Wow did you end up with this job? Why are questions such a big part of This is Strategy? If you had to charge ten times as much as you charge now, what would you do differently? If it had to be free, what would you do differently? Who's it for, and what's it for? What is the change we seek to make? How did you choose the questions for The Strategy Deck? How big is our circle of us? How many people do I care about? Is the change we're making contagious? Are there other ways to gamify the use of questions? Any other thoughts on how questions might be gamified? How do we play games with other people where we're aware of what it would be for them to win and for us to win? What is it that you're challenged by? What is it that you want to share? What is it that you're afraid of? If there isn't a change, then why are we wasting our time? Can you define tension? What kind of haircut do you want? How long has it been since your last haircut? How might one think about intentionally creating that question? What factors should someone think about as they use questions to create tension? How was school today? What is the kind of interaction I'm hoping for over time? How do I ask a different sort of question that over time will be answered with how was school today? Were there any easy questions on your math homework? Did anything good happen at school today? What tension am I here to create? What wrong questions continue to be asked? What temperature is it outside? When the person you could have been meets the person you are becoming, is it going to be a cause for celebration or heartbreak? What are the questions we're going to ask each other? What was life like at the dinner table when you were growing up? What are we really trying to accomplish? How do you have this cogent two sentence explanation of what you do? How many clicks can we get per visit? What would happen if there was a webpage that was designed to get you to leave? What were the questions that were being asked by people in authority at Yahoo in 1999? How did the stock do today? Is anything broken? What can you do today that will make the stock go up tomorrow? What are risks worth taking? What are we doing that might not work but that supports our mission? What was the last thing you did that didn't work, and what did we learn from it? What have we done to so delight our core customers that they're telling other people? How has your international circle informed your life of questions? What do I believe that other people don't believe? What do I see that other people don't see? What do I take for granted that other people don't take for granted? What would blank do? What would Bob do? What would Jill do? What would Susan do? What happened to them? What system are they in that made them decide that that was the right thing to do? And then how do we change the system? How given the state of the world, do you manage to continue to care as much as you do? Do you walk to school or take your lunch? If you all can only care if things are going well, then what does that mean about caring? Should I have spent the last 50 years curled up in a ball? How do we go to the foundation and create community action?…

This is PART 2 of 2. Wherein we learn that "Psychology" is often considered "fake science" to many Christians, but when they are Recons, the cognitive dissonance is especially astounding. And we learn that despite theoretically having a high regard for education, Recons despite higher education. And we also learn about how purity culture idiocy ties into all that.…

[This is PART 2 of 2] "Your body is evil." "You are in sin for thinking a woman is beautiful." "Your wife is a legal way you can lust." "You are responsible for a man's sin." These are just some of the things that cause the identity crisis that Purity Culture has created in an entire generation.
[This is PART 1. Part 2 will be released in November] "Your body is evil." "You are in sin for thinking a woman is beautiful." "Your wife is a legal way you can lust." "You are responsible for a man's sin." These are just some of the things that cause the identity crisis that Purity Culture has created in an entire generation.…
Recons would rather look through a dark glass with all of their human efforts - straining to move mountains, give to the poor, speak with tongues of men and angels, and give their very bodies to be burned - rather than have anything to do with the true definition of love. God's grace, for the recon, is something that can spoil you if you cling onto it too dearly, rather than something that transforms you the more you cling to it.…
Many times, recons twist Scripture to get it to say what they want it to say. But other times, if a recon wants to do something, they will do anything they have to do to get there - even if it means do the complete opposite of what Scripture says. When push comes to shove, they are always their own law.…
Not anywhere near to being an exhaustive explanation of what Christian Nationalism is, but this is a brief overview of how it why it is difficult to define, the groups of Christians it applies to, and how it relates to Theonomic Reconstructionism. The narrative of Christian Nationalism becomes the justification for a plethora of evil.…
What is an image bearer of Christ? According to Scripture and most Christians' understanding, an image bearer is a human being. We were created in His image and are the best creatures to show forth Christ's essence. For the recon, however, people can't bear Christ's image anywhere near as beautifully as inanimate objects or institutions can.…
What does a recon really think about A Priori knowledge? What about the concept of personal boundaries? Is there a difference between "Giving Up" and "Letting Go"? How do they regard the mentally impaired? ...all this and more is explored, dissected, and mourned in this episode.
This is part 2 of 2. If a recon talks to you about "tactics" for reconstructionism, it amounts to political salvation. It never amounts to spreading the gospel message or caring about individuals.
Sorry it's a late release! It's worth the wait... This is part 1 of 2. If a recon talks to you about "tactics" for reconstructionism, it never amounts to actual tactics. It only amounts to knowing something should be done. But it never amounts to an actual blueprint of what to do.
There are two extremes in the recon community: artificial worth and artificial worthlessness. Your value isn't found in Christ and the fact that God made you in His image. It is found in your performance. To them, it is possible that one can commit either enough sins or a bad enough to be beyond the reach of redemption. They'll deny all of that, but in practice, that's exactly what it is.…
There's a reason Recons exit: They were trying to address a problem of apathy in the church, and they took it too far. But let's talk about that apathy for a moment. It's actually just two sides of the same legalistic coin. Recons can't do enough to earn salvation. The other extreme wants to know how little they can get away with doing while still remaining saved. Neither side comes from a place of loving Christ.…
Sorry for skipping October's episode - I had no laptop for almost two months due to repairs, so I couldn't work on anything! Recons are so taken up with judging others and cleaning up this earthly institution that they don't bother to rejoice because their names are written in heaven. ...This is just yet another one of the incredible results of their godless Christianity.…
Theonomic Reconstructionism is similar to Fundamentalism. Both guilt trip people's beavior. Fundamentalists usually have rules that aren't in Scripture, while Reconstructionists usually have a different angle... One inconsistency with reconstructionists is that they often comment on insignificant behavior, while being silent on huge things that a brother in Christ should offer loving council concerning, like not getting addiction help, or having an affair. How can those extremes coexist?…
