Summary

Derek Kubilus, a Methodist minister, was surprised to find so much pain around the concept of Hell among his parishioners despite serving in a progressive denomination. This led him to write the new book “Holy Hell: A Case against Eternal Damnation” and to explore the concept and history of “Hell” without the baggage it is often accompanied by in more conservative spaces. Over time, humans seem to have come up with a maximally terrifying vision of Hell that goes well beyond anything in the Bible. Why? What role does it play? What does it accomplish?  Derek’s Book “Holy Hell: A Case against Eternal Damnation”: https://www.amazon.com/Holy-Hell-against-Eternal-Damnation/dp/0802883176 Derek’s Podcast “Cross Over Q”:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cross-over-q/id1551387779 Episode’s Mentioned: To Consider *ALL* the Atonement Theories (#6): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/you-have-permission/id1448000113?i=1000428619214 _____________ Follow Dan on IG: www.instagram.com/dancoke/ Or Twitter: twitter.com/DanKoch Faith deconstruction resources: www.soyouredeconstructing.com/ Edited by Josh Gilbert (joshgilbertmedia.com -- he is accepting more work!)
