A Vacation Bible School skit just became the internet's problem — and it caused a real schism on Ask A Christian Podcast.
Nate, Steph, Connie, Saxon, and atheist recurring guest Michael dig into the viral video of a Lexington, Kentucky church's "Commandos for Christ" skit, where kids chanted "take him out, blow him up" while adults staged a mock firing-squad execution of "the devil" with the church's self-described "gospel gun." Pastor Dewayne Walker has since defended the 32-year VBS tradition as pure sin-versus-salvation symbolism, but not everyone at the table is buying it. Is it just poor taste, or — as one host insists — actually demonic? Special guest Pastor Mark even weighs in live with an unbiased pastor's-eye read on the clip.

Before the main event, the crew also tackles the internet's latest "gay witch" content wars, a viral clip of Christian women praying together before a lopsided "1 atheist vs. 20 Christians" debate, and an anti-Trinitarian AI-generated video that reignites the ancient (and apparently still necessary) case for the Trinity against modern-day Oneness/modalist theology.
Expect apologetics, sanctified sarcasm, and at least one caffeine-free Coke tangent. Welcome to another day on Ask A Christian Podcast.
