VOX MIni - The Panhead Strikes Back: Answering Criticism, Deconstructing Evangelicalism, and Launching Voxology TV

Episode • Dec 23, 2019 • 20m

Kicking off a special December series of mini Q&A episodes, Mike Erre, Tim Stafford, and Bonnie dive into thoughtful listener feedback addressing critiques of their political commentary, the limits of deconstruction, and the broader mission of Voxology. Recorded in-person at Gold Pacific Studios, this episode also announces the launch of Voxology TV on YouTube, feeding both audio and video content into the growing community conversation.

This episode peels back layers of evangelical culture and reflects on how orthodoxy has been obscured by modern political alliances, doctrinal gatekeeping, and a conflation of American cultural values with the teachings of Jesus. With humility and sincerity, the team responds to pointed critiques—clarifying their stance on orthodoxy, political idolatry, and the difference between faith and cultural packaging.

Key takeaways: • Why criticizing evangelical political alliances isn’t the same as attacking conservative theology. • Distinguishing historic orthodoxy from the evangelical industrial complex of the last 70 years. • Why theological deconstruction is necessary—but not a rejection of core Christian beliefs. • The importance of exposing abuse and corruption in church institutions as a form of holy reckoning. • How Voxology aims to equip listeners not just to deconstruct—but to reconstruct in Christ-centered, community-minded ways.

Guest Highlights: • Bonnie Lewis – Brings essential nuance to the conversation around orthodoxy, deconstruction, and gendered critiques of what's considered “liberal.” • Studio shoutouts – Recorded at the legendary Gold Pacific Studios with video by Setter Studios, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the people making this new media expansion possible.

Resources Mentioned: • Voxology YouTube Channel (Voxology TV) – YouTube.com/@voxology • Email listener suggestions to host guests: hello@voxpodcast.com • Reference to past interviews with Tim Gombis and conversations around Paul and politics
