About this listen
In this deeply personal episode, Scot Loyd reflects on growing up Pentecostal under the watchful eyes of his grandmother, who lived every day with the unshakable belief that Jesus might return at any moment. Through stories filled with nostalgia, dread, and wonder, Scot unpacks the emotional complexity of believing you’re both chosen and never quite good enough. But he doesn’t stop there. With his signature blend of tenderness and critique, Scot confronts the theology of escape that shaped so many evangelical imaginations. What happens when rapture thinking becomes an excuse to abandon responsibility—for people, for justice, for the planet? This episode is an invitation to stay, to love, and to build the kind of world that wouldn’t be afraid to meet Jesus face to face.
