Firebrand Podcast

David Watson

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. In addition to providing interviews and recordings of featured articles, Maggie, Scott and David discuss culture, theology, Bible, and the work of the Holy Spirit, through the lens of the historic faith. 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.
