Welcome to Banned Books, where we read and converse with the rebel children, the holy mischief-makers of God, who fight against the kind of useless religious, spiritual, and moral methods of life improvement that seeks to smother the glory of God in Jesus Christ. We want to introduce you to those who forgot everything except Jesus Christ and him crucified. We all struggle with fear of being last, lost, least, littlest, and dead, and so we are here to encourage, challenge, provoke, and maybe even offend you by introducing you to theologians who at one time or another were banned by their church, declared dangerous, or simply vilified for daring to confess that Christ alone is the way, truth, and life. Welcome rebel children, holy mischief makers, and fools for Christ. This podcast is for you. more

(2026 SUMMER OFF - HIATUS) Substack: https://marieduquette.substack.com/ Rev. Marie Duquette, with over 20 years of sound theological preaching, brings the Bible into current events in this podcast. FROM HER LINKED-IN PROFILE - 'I've been a progressive pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) for over twenty years, including leading six separate congregations in four states, each with a different emphasis. In that time I've lead a rural congregation through building a church, which included a summer in which several young children died and the community was wracked with grief; a small community through extensive grief; a beachside congregation through a merger with a large cathedral on the mainland; and a diverse congregation in a college town through the pandemic. My writing experience includes liturgical content for Augsburg Fortress (Minneapolis, MI); feature articles for Crazy Wisdom (Ann Arbor, MI); editorials for the Observer-Eccentric (Farmington, MI) as well as creative non-fiction for my SUBSTACK (which is currently free to subscribers), Take Off Your Shoes, since 2010.'

In a time marked by spiritual confusion and experience-driven worship, the distinct voice of confessional Lutheranism is often lost amid the noise of modern evangelical culture. Many—even lifelong Christians—have never encountered the biblical clarity, theological depth, and enduring comfort offered by the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS).Anchored in Christ exists to bridge that gap.This podcast presents the core teachings of confessional Lutheranism in a format that's both engaging and accessible. Through thoughtful conversation, scriptural teaching, and real-life application, Anchored in Christ introduces listeners to the unique theological and pastoral strengths of the LCMS. It's not just another Christian podcast—it's a clear, compassionate, and uncompromising proclamation of Christ crucified for sinners, set against the backdrop of today's theological trends.⸻Why It MattersThe LCMS has long been committed to faithfully confessing the Gospel, but its distinctiveness is often misunderstood or overlooked—especially in a landscape shaped by the influence of big-box churches and decision-centered spirituality.Anchored in Christ invites listeners to rediscover what makes Lutheran theology both rich and deeply comforting: • The centrality of Word and Sacrament in worship • The assurance of a Christ-centered faith, not rooted in personal decision but divine promise • The historical and biblical grounding of doctrines such as justification, vocation, and the means of graceWhether you're a disillusioned evangelical, a curious seeker, or a lifelong Lutheran looking to go deeper, this podcast offers a fresh, faithful voice grounded in something far older than today's trends.⸻What to ExpectEach episode of Anchored in Christ features clear teaching, honest reflection, and accessible conversations rooted in Lutheran theology. Alongside co-hosts Doug Hannah and Rev. Curt Hoover, you'll hear from pastors, theologians, and lay leaders as they explore how the Gospel speaks into modern questions with ancient wisdom and lasting hope.This is more than just theological talk—it's a call back to biblical, sacramental, Christ-centered faith. A faith that's not built on hype or emotion, but on the enduring promises of God. more
