If you have serious questions about the church’s representation of Jesus, what he has done and the beauty of his work on earth today, join hosts Mike Erre and Tim Stafford and their guests to talk things out and find your way back to the true mission of Jesus.

Mike Erre

Co-Host

Mike Erre, a proud Ohio native now living in Nashville, Tennessee, spends his days as a podcaster and teaching pastor. Prior to starting the VOX (now Voxology) Podcast in 2015, Mike served as a pastor at several Orange County megachurches. Mike became disillusioned with the big budget, big production, corporations and how they so radically differed from the teachings of Jesus. He set out to reshape his vocation exploring what it means to live true to the teachings in the Sermon on the Mount, amidst a Christian Culture that seems to easily wander from its core. Mike and his wife Justina spend their time, in large part, learning from their kids, Nate, Hannah, and (the Voxology hype man) Seth.
