Spiritual Avengers: God's Dream Team

Bet you didn't expect to see Him in your inbox.

As it's Easter, I'm gonna drop a holy hand grenade of wisdom into your lap. You're welcome in advance.

Plenty of people regularly ask about who my fav preachers are, For year, I've been combing the digital desert for those rare oases of spiritual refreshment, and guess what? I struck living water.

Let's get you spiritually hydrated this Easter with a smorgasbord of Christian voices who pack more punch than a Sunday morning sermon after a triple espresso.

Pole position is Ps. Doug Wilson - the Crusader ninja warrior of Christendom. This man is my spirit animal - he writes, speaks, and slays heretical dragons in his sleep. His blog, YouTube channel, and app are like the spiritual equivalent of an all-you-can-eat buffet for your soul.

Bishop Robert Barron is OG, he practically invented religious YouTube. Watching his videos is like attending the coolest Bible study on the planet.

Martyn Iles is a Christian version of Ben Shapiro. He cuts through cultural chaos like a hot knife through butter. His take on Babylon? Biblical truth bombs, one after another. Boom.

Alisa Childers, the rockstar turned apologist, is hitting all the right notes. She went from touring with a Christian band to touring the depths of scripture and apologetics. Encore, please.

Father Mike Schmitz and his Bible in a Year Podcast are my morning jam. It's like spiritual bacon for your brain. Delicious and nutritious.

Allie Beth Stuckey, the better half I never had, serves truth with a side of sass. She's the Proverbs 31 woman, if that woman also had a podcast and wasn't afraid to use it.

Melissa Dougherty is the apologetics world's answer to a Swiss Army knife: versatile, sharp, and unexpectedly handy. Funny too.

Ruslan is the spiritual hype man we all need. His content? Always on point, always uplifting.

Undaunted Life's podcast is for the men who know life's a battle, and we're called to be warriors. Strap on your spiritual armor; we're going in.

Ex special forces John Lovell, the Warrior Poet Society's pastor, is here to remind us that Jesus wasn't a meek and mild pushover. He flipped tables, folks.

Like your scripture served up with hellfire on the side? Brother Breaker preaches about the Blood so much, you'd think he was part vampire. But nope, just a Baptist with a massive passion for redemption.

Dr. Taylor Marshall and Tim Gordon are serving Catholic truth with a side of controversy. It's like a tag team from theological WWE.

The late Dr. Michael Heiser and Father Chad Ripperger: one's teaching from heaven, the other's kicking satan's ass several times a day. Experts on the supernatural aspects of faith. Scary good!

Ps. Joel Webbon's Right Response Ministries? It's like CrossFit for your faith. No pain, no gain.

Every man should have a nun in their life, I used to have Sister Rachel as a spiritual director while I was in Oz. Now I settle in with Sisters Mary Grace and Miriam James offer wisdom that's like spiritual chicken soup for the soul. Warm, comforting, and good for what ails ya.

And then there's old school evangelical bad boy Mark Driscoll who may well have sold his soul to become the world's best preacher. 

Nearest and dearest is my sponsor, Godfather of the Christian mafia in American AA, Russell Spatz. Sober 44 years and veteran of three decades of Bible studies, he's still serving it up good and hot. 

Finally the place of honour goes to Ps. Kirrily Lowe , my spiritual mum, senior minister at God In The City in Sydney and all over YouTube, just drop in her name.

That's the roster, boys and girls. Dive deep into their stuff, get inspired, and let's turn this world upside down for Christ. Because being lukewarm is so last millennium.

Happy Easter and Godspeed!
