A call to follow Jesus — not power, politics, fear, or performative religion.
Make Christianity About Jesus Again
JOIN THE CONVERSATION
Last year, over 50 million people visited this community—and more than 3 million engaged in honest, sometimes uncomfortable conversations about God, truth, politics, religion, and what discipleship actually looks like when Jesus defines it.
If you’re looking for a place to ask real questions, wrestle openly, and engage faith without fear or filters, this is where the conversation happens.
The Disruptive Disciple is where faith steps off the stage and back into real life.Pastor Brandon, joined by his wife Shay, speak honestly about performative religion, misplaced loyalties, and how defending Christianity often replaces actually following Christ.
Together, Brandon and Shay wrestle with the conversations many churches avoid—because they’re messy, inconvenient, and impossible to reduce to soundbites.
Gritty but gentle.
Honest but loving.
It’s discipleship with dirt under its fingernails.
Unpolished. Uncomfortable. Jesus-centered.
And a bit disruptive.
THE DISRUPTIVE DISCIPLE PODCAST
FIND A RED LETTER CHURCH.
Finding a church that actually looks like Jesus has gotten harder than it should be.
This directory exists to help people find churches that have consistently shown their faith is rooted in Christ—not culture wars, not power, and not who’s considered “in” or “out.” These are communities known for loving God and loving others—all others—not just those who look alike, vote alike, or believe alike.
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about posture.
Churches are recommended by our community and the list is updated regularly. If you’re searching for a church that feels more like Jesus and less like a religious or political organization, this is a place to start.|
And if you know a church that belongs here, we invite you to recommend it.
What many now call “Christianity” often looks less like the teachings of Jesus and more like Christian Nationalism. Scholars use the term White Christian Nationalism not as an insult, but as a description—a movement rooted in power, exclusion, and the belief that God uniquely favors one nation, one culture, one expression of Christianity. Naming that history isn’t about shame. It’s about honesty.
Christian Nationalism confuses the Gospel with government, faith with dominance, and discipleship with political loyalty. Jesus didn’t align with power—He confronted it. He exposed hypocrisy, challenged injustice, and centered His ministry on the vulnerable, not the powerful.
This ministry exists to reclaim a faith that actually looks like Him again:
-
Love over legalism (John 13:35)
-
Truth that confronts hypocrisy (Matthew 23:27)
-
A Church that serves instead of seeks control (Mark 10:42–45)
When faith needs power to survive, it’s already lost Jesus.

ARTICLES
When we say something thoughtful, honest, and unwilling to play along, and the labels come fast. These articles sit in that tension — where faith goes against the grain and truth doesn’t stay quiet. Not to provoke, but to follow Jesus with clarity and courage.
