Christianity? Witchcraft?? Astrology???

Can we have a merry Christmas? Maybe, with God’s help, we can. And maybe an old carol can help us find it. I don’t claim the rights to the lyrics or chords.

For this episode, I discuss a few things about foster care. I explain why foster care can be heartbreaking, how to get involved with foster care, and why as Christians we should be especially drawn to foster care. If you are interested in helping out with foster care in Indiana in any way, please reach out to Josiah White’s. They are an excellent Christian foster care organization.

How do we make sense of pain and suffering? In this episode, I look at a question about that. How do we believe in God with pain and suffering and injustice in the world? At the same time, I also think we should ask the opposite question: How can we make sense of pain, suffering, and injustice without God? Let’s take some time to look at all of this.

This is part 2 of our look at a meme about the Passover story in Exodus. In this episode, I look at the context of the Exodus story, and try to explain why the meme falls far short of actually explaining what happened. In the end, we ask, “What does it look like for God to bring justice to an unjust situation?” And other difficult questions about God, justice, and mercy.

Today, we enter part 1 of a 2 part look at a meme about the first Passover. The overall look this time centers less on what the meme actually says, and more on the way the meme says it.

There are a lot of posts on social media about showing kindness and compassion. But, are they statements we should take seriously? And, why is it that so many of the people who post them seem so mean at times? In this episode, I’m looking at one of these posts, and trying to bring a Christian perspective on this situation. If you have any questions about Christianity, or even any doubts about God or Jesus, feel free to email me at [email protected]. I would love to discuss those with you, both through messages and possibly an episode.

In this episode, I look at a post that compares Christianity, witchcraft, and astrology. How are they connected? Is there a comparison? Which is true? And, is the post stating things honestly, or do we need to read past the words to come to a more accurate picture?

I have seen many posts on social media criticizing Christianity. Maybe you have too. Or, maybe you have questions about Christianity that you’ve wrestled with, and want answers. This is the first part of a series looking to answer those questions and posts, moving all of us toward a more fully formed belief.

I’m sorry for the long break. In this episode, I discuss why I have taken so long to post another episode, and take an extended look at humility.

Many people, especially Christians, select a word for the upcoming year. I believe that God has given me one (technically two), but it might not be what you’d expect.
