    Not a podcast of YHWH/the Father/God, beware of the bread you are consuming especially in these last times when the false prophets are in the world.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Can You Have Christian Ethics Without Christianity? A Response to Bart Ehrman
Q: What about Ehrman's claim that gospel contradictions and later dating undermine reliability?
Kruger responds that many apparent contradictions can be resolved when considering ancient historiography and the different purposes of gospel writers, highlighting evidence for early creedal forms and eyewitness testimony that anchor the gospels in historical memory.
Can You Have Christian Ethics Without Christianity? A Response to Bart Ehrman
Q: Can you have Christian ethics without Christianity?
Kruger argues that while non-Christians can adopt altruistic and moral behavior, the distinctive Christian ethics and the justification for those ethics are grounded in Christian claims, particularly the resurrection and the gospel witness, which cannot be fully separated from Christian faith.
The Stories Culture Tells Us
Q: What stories might we have stopped telling that contributed to virtue and meaning?
We need to explore stories that contribute to virtue in a biblical context, acknowledging that some narratives have fallen in different ways.
The Stories Culture Tells Us
Q: How do we become more aware of how cultural narratives may cause a change in culture?
We have to identify the narratives and ask ourselves what part of the story moves us and why it moves us, exploring their emotional power.
Challenges Facing the Protestant Church Part 2
Q: What does personal kind of devotional time where you are kind of in that quietness, where it's about you and Jesus, what does that look like for you?
I get up and put on my prayer tunic, and... One thing I try to do is not have the distractions constantly, the noise. I get outside a lot. I have to do that. Probably four or five times a week, there's a three-mile walk I take around the lake by my house.
