Christian AF Podcast
- A Reconstructionist Podcast -Christian AF was born after a few long conversations over good beers, where we realized that life, and faith, aren't as simple as we grew up believing. We started wondering why asking questions was frowned upon, or why we had to accept what we've always been told as the truth. Maybe some things aren't as black and white as we'd like to think. So, we set out to create a space to have an HONEST dialogue that welcomes questions, doubts, and fears about faith, church culture, and everything in between. The three of us behind the mics are no experts, but our goal is to help listeners start asking questions or maybe even find some answers. Christian AF is a podcast for people who are over church, have been burned by church, don’t get church, or have been told not to question their faith. So as we like to say, kick back, grab a drink, and start questioning!
(Christian AF is based out of Rockford, IL run by members of Grassroots Church).

Episode 121 - Quiet Quitting (Part 1)
Ever feel like you’re slowly backing out of a room, hoping no one notices? That’s quiet quitting—but not at your job. We’re talking about quietly quitting church. 🏃♂️💨
In this episode of Christian AF, Jesse, Jen, and Evan (joined by our buddy Creig) dive into why so many people are ghosting church communities without saying a word. Are we just bad at confrontation? Is church just another consumer product we discard when it stops working for us? Have we been trained to think of faith like an entertainment subscription we can cancel anytime?
We’re breaking down:
- Why people really leave churches.
- The rise of individualism and how it’s reshaped faith communities.
- Whether digital connections can replace in-person church life.
- The dangers of a “church as entertainment” model.
- How to build real, lasting community in a culture that thrives on isolation.
So grab a drink, and buckle up, while we talk about why church relationships are getting ghosted harder than a bad Tinder date.
