In this engaging and insightful podcast episode, Dave and Ann Wilson dive into the topic of faith, questioning God, and navigating life's challenges, especially when those challenges lead to feelings of resentment or doubt toward God. The discussion starts by emphasizing the importance of asking children—and even oneself—when they've felt resentment toward God. The hosts share personal experiences, including one host reflecting on the loss of her sister and the deep, unresolved questions that came with that loss. The conversation then transitions into addressing the belief gap between what people often expect from God and what they experience in reality. Lisa Fields, the guest speaker and author, shares her wisdom, acknowledging that doubt, questioning, and wrestling with God is a natural and important part of spiritual growth. She suggests that these struggles don't signify the death of faith but rather the key to it. The hosts also discuss how wrestling with faith brings believers closer to understanding their beliefs and the concept that theological growth is not just about memorization but about heartfelt conviction.Lisa Fields emphasizes that wrestling with difficult questions allows people to form stronger beliefs that are rooted in both knowledge and personal experience. She talks about the importance of recognizing pain points in people's struggles—such as peace, provision, protection, and purpose—and how people often look for peace in temporary solutions, like drugs, relationships, and other distractions, rather than in God. A significant part of the conversation touches on the concept of peace, explaining that true peace is not about the absence of negative emotions but about the assurance of God's presence in the midst of trials. Fields also shares her personal story of heartbreak, where she had to wrestle with forgiveness after being betrayed by someone close to her, illustrating how faith, forgiveness, and personal growth can intersect. She also talks about how peace with God, peace with others, and peace within are all necessary to experience true inner peace.The episode further explores the idea that many people, particularly younger generations, struggle with finding purpose and meaning in life, often seeking it in things like social media validation or material success. The hosts emphasize that true purpose comes not from what we do but from who we become in Christ. Fields challenges the notion of purpose tied to achievement, instead shifting the focus toward becoming a person of integrity, compassion, and love. As the conversation wraps up, the hosts encourage parents and believers to engage deeply with the Bible and to understand the full scope of what Scripture promises and teaches, which includes not just prosperity but the reality of trials and suffering.The episode concludes by stressing the need for families to navigate these faith struggles together, acknowledging that faith can be complicated and sometimes disappointing but that God uses these challenges to grow us. Lisa Fields' book "When Faith Disappoints: The Gap Between What We Believe and What We Receive" is highlighted as a resource for those wanting to bridge this gap and engage in deeper conversations about faith, doubt, and the complexities of spiritual life.

The conversation opens with a question about a book titled "When Faith Disappoints," which deeply resonates with the hosts, particularly Dave, due to his own past struggles with faith crises.Lisa shares that the book is, in part, a memoir of her own faith journey, including her struggles as a seminary student who faced a crisis of faith.

Deconstruction is not simply a buzzword, but a reality that many Christians — especially young people and people of color — experience. Some deconstruct due to the dissonance they see between faith and how faith is lived out. For others, it is misunderstandings of theology or poor public witness. In Today's Conversation, Lisa Fields, founder of Jude 3 Project, shares how her own faith was challenged and how she is committed to helping Christians — particularly in the Black community — know what they believe and why.
Today we're joined by Lisa Fields. Lisa is one of the world's most sought-after Christian apologists, and combines her passion for biblical literacy with her heart for sharing God's love with all those she meets. She has received several honors, including being recognized in Christianity Today for her work as an apologist in the African American community. She helped produce and create two documentaries, Unspoken, which is an in-depth look into the Christian heritage of Africa and people of African descent, and Juneteenth: Faith and Freedom, through her partnership with Our Daily Bread. Lisa has a Bachelor of Science in Communications and Religious studies from the University of North Florida, and a Master of Divinity with a focus in Theology from Liberty University. Finally, she is the founder and CEO of the Jude 3 Project, which Axis recently got to partner with to create a resource on talking with Gen Z about sexuality and gender. We'll be talking primarily today about Lisa's work with Jude 3 Project. For more written, audio, and video resources go to axis.org.

I learned SO MUCH from my Ugandan friends over the last 2 weeks. I learned that THEY are really good at knowing what THEY need. I learned that asking what they need is more important than telling them what they need. I learned that serving them as a Christian IS NOT the same thing as colonizing their land as a Christian. I learned tons about the history of Christianity and its African roots. I learned that Ugandans don't need Americans to “rescue” them. I learned that it's important to have these conversations… So in today's episode, I spend some time unpacking these thoughts the first 1/2 of the show, and then the second 1/2 I interview the producer of the new documentary “Unspoken” - An in-depth look into the Christian heritage of Africa and people of African descent, intended to dispel the notion of Christianity being an exclusively white man's religion.

What do you do when someone challenges your faith? One of the world's most sought-after Christian apologists, Lisa Fields, combines her passion for biblical literacy with her heart for sharing God's love to all those she meets. She is a graduate of the University of North Florida with a Bachelor of Science in Communications and Religious Studies and of Liberty University with a Master of Divinity with a focus in Theology. She is the founder and president of the Jude 3 Project, an organization that aims to help Black Christians know what they believe and why they believe. Twitter | Twitter for Jude 3 Project | Website Quote “I feel like a faith that can't be tested, can't be trusted. And so I continued to test it and put it under scrutiny because I believe that if it was the truth, it will always be found to be true.” In this episode, we discuss the idea of being a PK (pastor's kid) and the assumptions that come with it, the importance of getting out of the “seminary bubble,” and the season of doubt she went through with her faith and how she fought back with the truth of Scripture. We also look at the relationship between Christianity, race, and gender. Finally, we talk about the richest times in seminary for her, the importance of building relationships, and empathizing with other people about their experiences. New Episodes Added Every Tuesday!
