Embracing Jesus without religion. Learning to walk in freedom. Trusting His work & believing the simplicity of the gospel.
The UnSunday Show asks honest questions about the origin and validity of institutional church rules, traditions, and practices. These religious rules and practices lead us away from the simplicity of the gospel and into an exhausting performance-based experience that is designed to perpetuate itself by placing ever increasing demands on its people and are of no value in Christ. If you're exhausted from trying to keep all the religious rules that have been placed on you, listen in to these conversations as we rediscover the freedom we've been given, apart from religion and empty religious obligation.

Bonnie is a wife, the mother of three amazing grown children and the proud "Grammie" of six delightful grandsons.
In recent years, Bonnie, a lifelong Christian, has been in the process of reexamining, through the lens of the gospel, all that she was taught in the institutional religious setting known as church. She says that the task of separating what 2000 years of church tradition has appropriated from scripture and subsequently slapped on its own distorted meanings, all but burying the original intent, is proving to be a difficult but gratifying journey.
Corinne is very happily married with her husband she has been with since 1992, a mother and grandmother.

Former pastor's wife who left institutional religion but not Jesus.
My name is Trent. Been married for 20 years to my bride Diana. We have two kids, Judah and Nasaya. I grew up in the institutional church, specifically the Pentecostal Charismatic camp. I Was a pastor for 20 years until I heard the grace message and, well, that was it! I resigned and decided to work a regular job while spreading this elusive gospel of the new covenant of grace. Since leaving the establishment of religion and the church structure, it has been a wonderful journey of discovering the true beauty of Jesus and finally living according to my true identity in Christ.
