Come to the Table – Sean McCoy pt 1

Have you ever had a conversation with someone that may not believe the same way you do. Not just about Faith, though that is important. But about any topic. Baseball, football, politics. Just talking with them without any preconceived notions about how the conversation would go?

Do you get angry and walk out on your friend or whoever you are talking to?  If not, why not?

What makes talking about Faith or religion any different than talking about baseball or football?

Maybe it’s because we don’t really take the time to “listen” to the other person. Maybe they are hurting. Maybe they are lonely. Maybe they just need someone to talk to without being judgmental in the process.

My guest today has a podcast that actually does just that! Sean McCoy is the host of the “Come to the Table Podcast.” This podcast is about just sitting down with someone and “talking.” Imagine that.

Sean says, “Love in action is listening to understand, not to react.”

His is not a podcast about discussing spiritual deconstruction, reconstruction, contemplation or The Bible. He says, “There are numerous podcasts that do that…we know because we love and listen to them constantly.”

Sean’s intent is take all that he knows and believes at the time and to live it out in a conversation while sitting at a literal or figurative table. And he does not shy away from a topic or person but, at the same time, he says, “We are not going to have an argument or debate.”

Help me welcome to the program, Sean McCoy!  Sean, thank you for taking the time to come on OUR podcast today!

The first question I always ask is this, other than that short information I just read, tell us in your own words, “Who is Sean McCoy?”

This is an interesting twist or take on podcast interviews. How long have you been doing this podcast?

What led you to do this type of podcast?

How do you find your guests?

About how many episodes do you have published now?

You say that you “challenge preconceived notions…”  What do you mean by that?

In your opinion, why should we engage in conversations with others who may not hold to the same Faith or beliefs that we do

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
