I love this podcast! Esau continually points us back to Jesus and his Gospel! They speak honestly and concisely and about current topics of the day. I love the discussions with his guests and Mike, his co-host. Even when things are so heavy these days they also make me laugh!! I rarely miss listening the day they come out but if I do I’m looking to listen the next day!
When it comes to finding my way as a disciple of Jesus situated in this particular moment, in this time and place, this is the podcast I turn to. I am grateful for the prophetic public theologians Esau McCaulley gathers to join him for these faithful conversations.
I look forward to every episode! I come away with a reading list and feel smarter.
The Esau McCaulley Podcast is the best podcast on Holy Post Media. Esau is theologically grounded, approachable, culturally relevant, practical and real. No pretense. No theological arrogance.

Their friendship and mutual respect is clear. Together, they model all the amazing things a cross-cultural friendship has... more
