That’ll Preach

Jesus is with us always, but we rarely ask "what does that actually mean?" And wouldn't it be easier to live the Christian life if we had him physically present? Bryan and Paul answer some deep questions fielded from some insightful kids. Also, Paul reveals a shocking secret about his childhood!

*Fixed Audio* We field questions from actual kids in our series Talk to Me Like I'm Five. This week we answer the question: how do we know God is real? Also, Bryan makes Paul feel awkward (again)

We're posting a flashback episode from our "Problem of Evil" series that covers the relationship between God's sovereignty and evil. This particular episode deals with Calvinism and whether it attributes evil to God. We posted this episode a while back when we were still hosted on the Four Oaks Midtown Podcast where you can find the other episodes in this series.

We break down what the Bible is and how it shapes our lives in 15-ish minutes!

In this episode we talk about the purpose of life and how to enjoy a lollipop.

Talk to Me Like I'm Five is a segment on our show where we break down complex concepts into simple ideas.

 

Bryan and Paul start a new segment called Talk to Me Like I'm Five where we break down complex concepts into simple ideas.

Bryan and Paul have a conversation with Dr. Ian Church about how our minds interpret suffering as either meaningful or meaningless. Also, Paul's alternate life as a vicious hunter of innocent animals is revealed.

Do cringe back at your shallow "feelings-oriented" charismatic days? Or do you roll your eyes at the arrogant rigidity of your doctrinal upbringing? Or perhaps you shake your head at your former ignorance of church history and tradition? Or maybe your faith has finally come alive after years stuck in a dusty and dead high church? Whatever your situation it seems as though Christians follow a familiar path when it comes to shifts in theology and practice. Bryan and Paul discuss these familiar patterns by engaging with an article by Dr. Scott Redd titled, "Three Modes of Christian Formation: Experience, Doctrine, and Liturgy." Also Paul says some awkward things.

What do we do when God feels absent in our lives? How do we respond when our prayers seem to never make it past the ceiling? Dr. Joe Minich discusses doubt, suffering, technology, labor, and a whole host of other topics in this in-depth conversation.

If you could determine the height, attractiveness, and IQ of your child before he or she was born would you do it? C.S. Lewis's final lecture in Abolition of Man raises uncomfortable points about how we have twisted what it means to be human through technology. Also, Paul reveals some embarrassing personal information.
