Hosted by David Watson · EN
The Firebrand Podcast (formerly Plain Truth: A Holy Spirited Podcast) is the official podcast of Firebrand Magazine and features Maggie Ulmer, Scott Kisker, and David F. Watson.

You can expect the same humor and lively conversation as the Firebrand Podcast crew remains dedicated to resourcing listeners with Spirit-filled, theologically grounded, (somewhat) sanctified, Wesleyan content to help them "think Christianly" in today's swiftly changing landscape.
