When COVID first broke out many endeavored to put their extra time to good use. Tom Huszti began listening to podcasts. He was intensely curious about theology. Huszti came to question several key beliefs he had imbibed as a lifelong Anabaptist, living in rural Ohio. Eventually he saw that the church’s God and the bible’s God were at odds with each other. Huszti embraced unitarianism and faced significant troubles because of this change. He is now launching a new ministry on YouTube called “The Unitarian Anabaptist” in which he intends to share his insights about Christ’s identity with others.

Excellent interview, Sean and Tom. God bless you. .
Hey Sean,
a great interview indeed. Still, I cannot get my mind around how you and fellow brethren (of the UCA) on the one hand encourage us to stand up for the truth, no matter the costs and consequences (in my case, I had to leave an evangelical high school as well as local churches), while on the other hand promoting the book “Christ Before Creeds”, in which the truth about the one true God and his human Messiah does not really matter in the end (chapter 7). That is one reason why I am not convinced to join the UCA. Why should we contend for the faith once and for all delivered to the saints (one God, human Messiah, kingdom gospel, baptism), when it is also possible to keep silent or “shake hands” with trinitarians and remain in “fellowship” with them? At least I am a bit confused what our work is then all about.
Otherwise, I am grateful and indebted to you and your ministry. Biblical classes, in-depth analysis of hard topics, dedicatd work. You (as well as Dale and Restoration Fellowship) helped me on my way to the knowledge of the truth at a (still) young age of 31 (three years ago). May the Eternal and One God bless and keep you.
In hope

Yes … Yes … Yes.
Brilliant interview Sean & Tom.
While I am not an Anabaptist, I identify with Tom’s journey and challenges in so many ways. 100% agree with the thoughts expressed in this interview. I would fellowship with your church if I lived nearby. Very encouraging interview guys!
Great interview. I came to the same conclusions over the past decade, culminating in my book “Know What You Believe and Why, A personal guide using logic, reason, and simplicity” that I recently published. I am 66 years old and grew up in church. I found the Restitutio website after publishing and wish I had before I published.
I have not yet experienced shunning, but I get into exciting conversations when I ask such questions as, “How does putting a “the” in front of a word and capitalizing it change the definition of the word?” The word of course is “logos” which magically becomes “the living word of God – God in the flesh” in John 1:1, when it only means various things relating to the mind and speech everywhere else that it is used. And of course, this magical meaning only applies to John 1:1. I consistently ask such questions and point out the significance of fourth century corruption of Christianity. At some point I am sure I will be told to just “shut up a color”. I will cross that bridge when I get to it.
I can relate to Tom’s sense of “freedom”. It is like a light was turned on in a dark room and so many things (facts and truth that are actually in scripture) are now visible.
Thank you all for standing on the truth of scripture.
