Summary

On this episode of ONE NATION, ALL BELIEFS (subscribe links below): Dave Warnock was caught up in the Jesus movement of the 70s and lived the bulk of his life as a Charismatic Evangelical, serving as a pastor on three different church staffs.  Following several years of internal struggle, Dave came to the conclusion in 2011 that he no longer believed in a personal God. In 2019 he was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), a progressive neurodegenerative disease with an average 3-5 year life expectancy. In early 2023, Dave, along with Bevin Jett and Sheila Hoover, founded I Am Dying Out Loud, a nonprofit organization with the mission to enhance the quality of life by advocating against the unwanted intrusion of religion in the areas of healthcare, dying, and death, and by providing “bucket list” moments for those diagnosed with ALS.  https://iamdyingoutloud.org/ Subscribe for $5.99 a month to get bonus episodes, ad-free listening, access to the entire 500-episode archive, Discord access, and more: https://axismundi.supercast.com/ Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one-nation-all-beliefs/id1686172926 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0HIjnVZjUwY8H1PD0M7F04?si=0964303c509d490f Megaphone: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/SWAJ1268297626?selected=SWAJ5941991368 https://www.au.org/ Learn more about your ad choices.
