If you listen to the Acts Church Sermons, David's spent a lot of time talking about the prevailing idea of a "mind-body dualism," which is also called "Cartesian Dualism" as René Descartes popularized much of how philosophy looks at the connection between mind (or spirit/soul) and body today. The problem is, this belief leads to a lot of problems for Christians and society at large. So let's talk about it... 31 January, 2019
We're back for 2019! Here's the first episode of "Season 2." We talk about last week's sermon, our personal experiences with suffering and how we view our faith through those times.
In this episode, Hunter and David talk about what it means to be authentic and vulnerable, and why it is absolutely important. In the episode, they speak a lot form personal experience and apply a lot of points to "Christian Leaders," but the fact is there is no separation between a Christian and a Christian Leader. All who have faith in Jesus Christ are called to live in a selfless and loving way that Jesus teaches. That being said, this podcast is for you!
