What do Christians actually think about? Listen in as we explore how faith informs our view of ourselves, our relationships, and the world. Our goal isn't to preach at you; this is a window into our conversations, plain and simple. Whether you're a Christian or not - in fact, especially if you're not - come join us. It's okay to be on the outside looking in.
Where do you find Christian ideas outside the church? In this episode, we review a motivational video from David Goggins, a former Navy SEAL and endurance athlete, and explain how his ideas about human nature align closely with the Bible.Video: "Stop Caring What Other People Think of You" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kLMdYoGsU4
In light of the political chaos of the past year, we had a conversation with Tyler about the intersection of faith and politics.How does our faith shape our political viewpoints?What aspects of following Jesus do conservatives and liberals do well? What could each side do better?How do we put the gospel into practice in a politically charged society?We also took a brief sidebar at the end to discuss living out our faith at work.
Highlights from this episode:A relationship with someone requires something from both you and the other person. A relationship with God is no different. What is God's part in a relationship with you? What is your part in a relationship with Him?We take a few detours to clarify what we mean by "perfection," "repentance," and "freedom." (We discuss definitions a lot; they're important to us and we hope they're helpful to you.)We had a completely unplanned discussion about the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in GenesisResources:"God's Part & My Part" by Jim Frederickshttp://www.jimfredericks.com/gods-part-my-part/
