John Pavlovitz – If God Is Love, Don’t Be a Jerk

Aired Wednesday, January 26, 2022 at 5:00 PM PST / 8:00 PM EST

For many people, their former religious doctrines have begun to feel like an old pair of tight pants—you can hop, shimmy, and try to cram yourself in, but you can’t deny that they no longer fit. Healthy spirituality shouldn’t be kept in a space too small or narrow. It’s natural for it to grow and evolve along with us. That journey can be initially terrifying but ultimately liberating.



My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, John Pavlovitz, says it’s time to “Unbox God, reexamine your faith and love your damn neighbor!” John Pavlovitz is a pastor, writer, and activist from Wake Forest, North Carolina. He’s spent nearly three decades teaching, studying, dissecting, deconstructing, and reconstructing the Christian faith. Committed to equality, diversity, and justice, John aims to teach a single, elemental truth: “Faith in a supernatural being should make you a better human being”. His blog, “Stuff That Needs to Be Said”, recently surpassed one hundred million views, and his previous books include A Bigger Table, Hope and Other Superpowers and Low. His website is https://johnpavlovitz.com/, and he joins me this week to share his latest book, If God Is Love, Don’t Be a Jerk.
