A podcast from a recovering Baptist pastor exploring the richness and complexity of Christian faith by untangling it from hollow, institutional religion. Whether you're deconstructing, reconstructing, or just remodeling your childhood faith, host Brett Harris offers space to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and recover hope, knowing that, while we might wonder what this all means and where life is leading us as we wander through it, God knows where.
Join Brett each week for a new episode that's perfectly timed for your morning commute, evening meal prep, or even just a walk around the block.

As we wind through all these stories by the riversides in our scripture, we’re confronted with one today that isn’t about healing or blessing. It’s about pain and punishment. And yet it still gives u…
Taking a bit of a detour today, but still sticking with our exploration of the river stories in our scriptures to see where they guide us. True Fall is still a month away down here in south Mississip…
We’re exploring a new river in our series “Live Streams” today. It’s wild to me to me that it takes so long for us to start talking about the Jordan River given all that we know happens in and around…
We’re going to leave the stories of Genesis behind and move on ahead to a story about Moses. They are some mentions of rivers in the stories of Jacob and Esau and in at least one dream Joseph interpr…
From the rivers flowing out of Eden and the Nile where Moses was found to the crossings and healings and transformations that happen in other rivers, we’re looking at how our tradition has been shape…
I’ve got a stack of books on my bedside table to read all on one topic: rivers. Actually, one river. The Pascagoula and all its tributaries, including the creek that runs not far from my house. I’m f…
Re-sharing one of my favorite episodes from last summer's series, VBS. It's the beginning of a new school year and the message in this story from Joshua seems on target. Enjoy!
We're wrapping up our series "Be" today with a look at probably the number one thing Jesus calls us to be: Different. But how are we supposed to be different? Let's talk.
Matthew 20:1-15
We're digging way back in the vault this week for a replay of our very first episode! We'll be back next week with a new episode to close out our current series, Be.
Hope you enjoy!
Today’s episode comes to us from a parable in Luke. It’s all about being ready…for anything. And maybe I need it more than you because it feels like every day something happens that I feel completely…
We’ve talked about needing to be reconciled and renewed in this series so far and today, it’s all about being thankful. It might feel like there are fewer and fewer reasons to be thankful these days,…
Let’s keep going with this series Be with another thing we’re called to be, that we don’t often take enough time to do: to be renewed and refreshed.
Let’s talk about that a little bit today and see w…
I don’t know what Sunday was like for you, worshipping hours after news of our nation inserting itself into another violent conflict, but I often find these times to be hard and to make it difficult …
The world feels beyond chaotic right now and it’s had me thinking a lot about the Church, it’s role, and even some opportunities we’re missing to be who God calls us to be in moments like these.

Welcome to God Knows Where. I’m Brett Harris. In this space between the series we wrapped up last week and what’s ahead came the Sunday when we celebrate the birth of the Church: Pentecost, so I figu…
Here we are at the end of our eighth series! We’re pushing 140 episodes. Over 15,000 downloads. It’s still unbelievable. Grateful to all of you who listen. I’ve got nothing but love for you. Thanks f…
It's the unofficial start to summer and no matter how many years it comes around, I'm always caught flatfooted with too many things to do when the kids get out of school...so here we are with a repla…
We’re coming close to the end of this series, Jesus Was a Loser, and today we’re talking about honor. But before we do, it’s that time of year again. Last year, y’all were amazing and helped God Know…
We’re picking up where we left off a couple of weeks ago with another episode of Jesus Was a Loser. This time we’re looking at how Jesus lost, or gave up, any concern for reputation, his or ours. Let…
We don’t have another episode of Jesus was a Loser today. Not because I don’t have one, but because last week on a walk I noticed that my favorite wild fruit was now ripe. If you’ve not had a dewberr…
