Talking Nate’s New Kids’ Book: The Crossroads Kids
Jordan sits down with P Nate to talk about his brand-new kids’ fantasy series, The Church at Oxford Street and The Bell that Calls the Dead—stories where the kids of Crossroads Church become the heroes in a very real spiritual war behind an old church’s walls. They unpack the big idea behind the “Crossroads Kids” world: re-enchanting our view of reality, helping children see that worship is warfare, and using story to disciple kids into courage, repentance, and love for Christ and his church. Along the way, they nerd out about how the Bible is more fantastical than most people realize, how AI tools like ChatGPT and Midjourney actually helped get the books finished, and why ordinary parents (yes, you) should consider writing stories that put their own kids into the adventure. If you’ve ever wanted to mix Narnia vibes, solid theology, and your local church community, this episode will spark a ton of ideas—and maybe your first book.Buy Book 1 Here: https://www.amazon.ca/Church-Oxford-Street-Crossroads-Kids-ebook/dp/B0FSGK4GM3/Buy Book 2 Here: https://www.amazon.ca/Bell-that-Calls-Dead-Crossroads-ebook/dp/B0FSGJYQSJ/Follow Us:X: / reformingnerdomInstagram: / reformingnerdomPatreon: / ReformingNerdom

Blue Jays, World Series Hype & a Christian Case for Fandom
In this episode of Reforming Nerdom, Jordan and Nate nerd out about baseball. They talk about the Blue Jays’ World Series run, why Toronto fandom is pain and joy in equal measure, and what makes playoff baseball completely unmatched as a sport. Then they get into the deeper question: Is it actually good for Christians to care this much about a team? They argue that fandom, rightly ordered, can be joyful, discipling, and glorifying to God—not an idol but a way to love excellence, community, and even masculinity well.Follow Us:X: / reformingnerdomInstagram: / reformingnerdomPatreon: / ReformingNerdom
