EP #022; New Year, New Me? Rethinking New Year Resolutions and Self Creation

In this episode we discuss Phaneroo's Gnostic teaching on humanity, its consequences in shaping how those who follow it perceive themselves and Christ. We compare this to what the Bible actually teaches about the creation story, the goodness of the body and the image of God. We look at the practical implications of Phaneroo's understanding of man on life, salvation and worship.  TO SUPPORT THIS MINISTRY AND PODCAST Please visit; https://veracityfount.org/donate/ MTN MOMO: Account Name: Veracity Fount Limited.

This week we listen to a book review of Atheism Remix; A Christian Confronts the New Atheists written by R. Albert Mohler Jr. and published by Crossway Books in 2008. Raymond Bukenya on this episode shares insights from this book and how it helps Christians and non Christians understand the New Atheism. And hopefully have better conversations between Christians and those who identify as skeptics or atheists.

19th November is recognised in some parts of the world as International Men's Day. We are joined by Isaac David Kisembo, Raymond Bukenya and Denis Mugume to discuss what biblical masculinity looks like and how can we arrive at it in these days where masculinity itself is in question.  Isaac Kisembo is a Biblical Counsellor and very passionate about the Men's Ministry. Raymond Bukenya is a Team Leader at Tru-Tangazo a ministry that does evangelism and apologetics in Kampala.
