  • This show represents what the leftist academy that claims to be Christian thinks

    All of their guests seem to come from the academy or agree with that perspective. Too often they seem to place allegiance to the leftist elites views ahead of what the Bible says or seeking truth.

  • Fantastic

    I am so glad that I came across this podcast. The conversations are very encouraging and challenging. The variety of speakers in each episode lends to learning how to recognize that we are not all created the same, but we can learn to love each person where they are, and grow more like Christ.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Living a Non-Anxious Life, with Alan Fadling
Q: What advice would you give to those who live among anxious people—how can they be a conduit of peace without absorbing the anxiety themselves?
Become less anxious yourself by practicing the peace of God and cultivating a non-anxious presence. Your calm presence can be a powerful form of ministry and support for others dealing with anxiety.
Living a Non-Anxious Life, with Alan Fadling
Q: How can we balance serving others and leading with our jobs while avoiding continual hurry and burnout?
Adopt a rhythm of life—engage and disengage, work and prayer—so that when you step back, you receive from God and can give more effectively. Sabbath and rest aren't laziness; they're strategic to sustained fruitfulness.
Living a Non-Anxious Life, with Alan Fadling
Q: Do you believe there is a link between anxiety and materialism or the way Christianity is practiced in the West to the sense of being overwhelmed by life?
There is a clear connection between anxiety and greed. If a person measures life by more possessions or status, that mindset fuels hurry and anxiety. Peace and contentment rise when one learns to rest in God's sufficiency.
Discovering a Life Worth Living, with Miroslav Volf
Q: How has your immersion in these traditions affected the way you live today?
He describes theology as inseparable from life and notes that his work is deeply relational with his personal experiences, including dialogue with other faiths, shaping how he acts and teaches.
Discovering a Life Worth Living, with Miroslav Volf
Q: What role does the social dimension play in living a good life in a pluralistic society?
He argues that life should be lived together, emphasizing loving others while honoring truth, and advocates speaking truth in love to navigate disagreement within community.
