  • Faithfully trustworthy

    I’ve been listening for years and these three continue to encourage my heart. Not only do I enjoy hearing friends banter, but I’m learning and being challenged to think and question and I’m strengthened in my faith. It’s my #1 recommended podcast. Thank you Knowing Faith!

  • AI and Koalas

    I want to start out by saying I’ve been binge listening to this podcast for about a month or so now since I’ve discovered it. I have the privilege of having JT as my home church pastor and I’m not sure if he talks about this podcast at church (I’ve only been attending since January 2026) but he did mention Al Mohler’s podcast and that’s how I found Knowing Faith.

    Anywho, I love listening to Knowing Faith as someone who’s recently accepted Jesus into their life. It is nice to gain some biblical... more

  • Theology in community

    I’ve been listening to knowing faith for a couple of years and they have taught me a lot about how to do theology in community. They have sound teaching , they make the bible accessible and most importantly they help Christians develop critical thinking when it comes to the bible and theology. They’ve taught me that it’s possible to hold opposing views but still respect and love each other

  • Theologically rich podcast!

    My husband and I love listening to this podcast. It helps me think critically and dive deep into Scripture, allowing me to further explore and experience God’s character. My family started attending The Village Church when I was 8 years old (now 26, haha!), and I’ve seen Knowing Faith grow into such a beautiful podcast. Thank you for all that y’all do!

    My question for Season 16 is: Is there a distinct difference between the Israel described in the Old Testament and the modern State of Israel tod... more

  • I have learned so much from the Knowing Faith team!

    So thankful for the rich theology delivered in an accessible and often humour-filled way. I have learned more doctrine, am better equipped to read the Bible, and am challenged to keep studying more! 10/10.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Answer a Koala According to Their Folly? Season 16 Q&A Episode
Q: What should be considered when deciding if Sunday is the Sabbath, and how does rest relate to pastoral calling?
Jesus is described as our Sabbath, with regular rest and wise boundaries necessary due to the demanding nature of shepherding and preaching; rest is a wisdom principle rather than a legal mandate.
Answer a Koala According to Their Folly? Season 16 Q&A Episode
Q: What is the proper understanding of the Trinity in creation when scriptures like 1 Timothy 6:13 and John/Hebrews point to the Son, and how should we avoid over-distinguishing the Godhead's acts?
They suggest a balanced approach: God the Father initiates creation and the Son accomplishes it, with the Holy Spirit applying it, and urge not to separate the persons' works too sharply, as the Bible presents a unified divine work.
Answer a Koala According to Their Folly? Season 16 Q&A Episode
Q: Is it biblical for a woman to speak at a conference where men are in attendance, and how does that differ from a Sunday sermon event?
The hosts notably argue that in a local church a pastor-elder-led preaching role remains reserved for qualified men while conferences and other speaking contexts may involve women, emphasizing generous complementarianism and ecclesial distinctions.
Is Retirement a Christian Concept?
Q: How should the church view the aging process and retirement in light of vocation and purpose?
The church should dignify old age, create intergenerational pathways for contribution, and encourage elders to stay engaged in meaningful work and mentorship rather than withdrawing entirely.
Is Retirement a Christian Concept?
Q: Should Christians actively plan for retirement, or should they simply focus on generosity and trust in God for the future?
Christians are encouraged to be prudent and plan for retirement because it allows sustained generosity and responsible stewardship, not hoarding but distributing resources for ongoing ministry and family needs.
