    Why is it that every single time a man incredibly accused of sexual assault always turns into a conservative conspiracy theorist? And why do people continue to embrace people like this?

    Brand used to be a foil for the establishment, now he has become a member of the fringeiest of the fringe of the establishment. Just a horrible podcast and a horrible human being.

    I don’t know if Russell is wearing a throat mike or something, but I wish someone would tell him that the gasping and heavy breathing is very off-putting. Is he vaping or something?

    Oh my literal God, Russell. I adore your podcasts, this one and Sunday Service. They are exactly the Lens that authentically capture the zeitgeist of the moment for me. Like you, I broke down and realized that I needed God in 2016, and I have devoted my life to Him in a painful but magnificent rebirth that has done nothing but good and amazing things in my life despite the ever increasing chaos and turmoil of the world. I received your free audiobook today, and while listening to Day 1 I broke d... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What If We Were Wrong About Christianity? - SF766
Q: How can we start to look at other religious traditions and their veracity?
Peters says Jesus' unique claims and the idea of being born again are central, while arguing that religious systems can obscure direct relationship with God and that divine truth should be considered across cultures.
What If We Were Wrong About Christianity? - SF766
Q: What in particular during our conversation did you focus on for this book, mate?
Peters says their earlier discussion raised questions about why Jesus was not recognized after his resurrection and how divine truth might relate to Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists and atheists. Those questions informed the book.
The Devil Is Closer Than You Think… - SF767
Q: Why suffering?
Pai says suffering is part of human life and can reveal wounds that people may not recognize. He describes suffering as a shared condition and says Christian transformation involves drawing closer to God through it.
The Devil Is Closer Than You Think… - SF767
Q: Since our last conversation, how has your walk altered and advanced? How has your position changed? Tell me what you're bringing first and foremost to our conversation today, Greg.
Pai says he has become more focused on using his Voice of the Heart framework to reach Christians and non-Christians, encouraging faith, love of neighbor and continued growth as a Christian.
Fallen Angels, the Watchers & the Beings Who Came to Earth - SF768
Q: Can you explain that to her? Oh, no, don't explain to her, she already understands it, but, like, connect it.
Michael H. Peters uses the example of a sphere passing through a two-dimensional plane to illustrate how people may struggle to comprehend realities beyond their experience. He describes being born again as sharing God's life and understanding eternity through trust in Jesus.
