Podcast 194: Simplifying Faith

/in /by

Faith is often misunderstood, and, to be sure, is a concept rich with meaning. It helps to break it down into simpler ideas that, while having their own profound depths, are perhaps easier to grasp—and to understand how to grow in. Join us today as we discuss a simple take on faith and what it means to have it (or not).

We refer to two resources today—here are links, as well as an excellent bonus resource we forgot about at the time:

P.S. Apparently, there was a repeating clip of the closing music left in the file 10 or 11 minutes after the podcast finishes. Consequently, the files look longer than they are and play for an extra 10 minutes of silence. The YouTube version has been edited and is resetting now, and the file that uploads to Apple and Spotify should be corrected soon, as well. Our apologies! Feel free to click to someting else after the 58 minutes and 42 seconds are over. Or, if you need 10 minutes of silence, well, feel free to play that, too. Might even be good for you!

Podcast 88: An Atheist’s Confession of Blind Faith

/in /by

An atheist confesses that her conviction God does not exist is grounded in her blind faith decision when she was six years old. But what she has to say should prompt us to explore the relationship between faith and evidence—something she gets wrong, as do so many others. Let’s explore the topic together.

In the podcast today, we mention a profound Living Church News article from Mr. Gerald Weston titled “Understanding Hebrews 11:1.” You should read it! So many get this wrong—even in the Church—and the meaning of the verse is so much deeper than many consider. We hope you will click on the link (or this one!) and take some time to read it and think about the point he is making in it. We touch on his point in the podcast since it relates to the topic, but it is worth focusing on in its own right.
