Joshua Haymes
Joshua K. Haymes is an American podcaster and pastor. He hosts the Reformation Red Pill podcast.[1]
Haymes served as a co-pastor of SOMA Venice, a church within the SOMA church network, from 2020 to 2023. He helped plant the congregation in March 2020,[2] but as he and the other pastors became Reformed and postmillennial, they decided to close the church.[3] Haymes then moved to Nashville and became a pastoral intern at Pilgrim Hill Reformed Fellowship, a congregation in the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches. He now works full-time in media and content creation.[4]
Haymes is an advocate of sphere sovereignty and Christian patriarchy.[5][6] He is an enthusiastic supporter of United States defense secretary Pete Hegseth, who is a member of his church.[6] According to Jason Wilson, writing for The Guardian, Haymes subscribes to the Great Replacement conspiracy theory.[4] He has stated that slavery is not inherently evil and that all Christians should share the same sentiment.[7]
