What happens when Christianity loses its vision of heaven?
In this episode, I sit down with pastor and author Brian Zahnd to explore why conversations about heaven have disappeared—and why that loss is shaping everything from our theology to our politics.
Drawing from his upcoming book Unseen Existences, Brian shares how the Church has swung between escapism and overcorrection, leaving many of us with a faith that feels either disconnected from reality—or completely consumed by it.
We talk about:
- The missing theology of heaven in modern Christianity
- Why “earth-only” faith falls short
- How politics can distort our spiritual vision
- The importance of reclaiming the humanity of Jesus
- Grief, hope, and what it means that “Jesus wept”
- Practical ways to live with eternity in mind
This episode is both grounding and challenging—inviting you to rediscover a bigger, richer vision of faith.
Key Quote:
“Christianity without transcendence eventually just becomes politics.”
