Exploring the age old question... "If God exists" or "If God is all powerful and good"... then "Why is there so much pain, evil, and chaos in the world?" This was prompted by a recent episode of the Joe Rogan Experience where Joe interviewed a woman who grew up in an apocalyptic cult. They talked about God and the Bible quite a bit, but at one point Joe shared his opinion on why God (if He exists) created humanity. This is what I'm reacting to on this episode.

Alex Seidler is back! Duke and Alex spend time remiscining over leading worship in the early 2000's and transition into a discussion about the kindness of God, surrendering to Jesus and leading from a posture of servanthood. Alex points out that the world is in desperate need of the people of God expressing the heart of the Father in the way that we lead ministries and do life together. People are hungry for the authentic. For real community. Alex also points out that spectator Christianity is to go. As leaders we cannot be content with doing all the ministry for the people to see. We need to demonstrate in such a way that empowers others to discover the leadership potential within them and express the nature of the Kingdom in their lives.

Jesus demonstrated the most extreme level of servant leadership... He didn't come to be served but to serve and later His life down for the sake of the world. He demonstrated servant leadership and then called on His disciples to do the same. This kind of selflessness and humility is so needed in our world today. In fact, creation is desperately longing for the people of God to recognize their authority and to use that authority not to exalt themselves but to serve like Jesus. Jesus didn't teach us to condemn the world. He taught us to love so well that people will ask, "What must I do to be saved?"Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/reallivetalk/donations
