Meet Lauren Graham from Agape UK! This is a casual conversion between Christians, we talk about what agape is, what experience she has had with them, as well as the role of modern non-denominational churches and different worship styles in the broader Christian narrative, and how she should act in the midst of a dying church.

Meet Tyler Bentley, a former colleague of both Ben and I, he wouldn't call himself a Christian but he is certainly curious and sees Christianity as being a good thing in the world that shouldn't be dismissed. Join us as we have a casual chat with our friend about Christianity.

This is a casual conversation discussing the stories outlined in Matthew 8, and it has it all. After Jesus gave the Sermon on the Mount, he makes his journey down and across the surface of the sea, he heals many, the faith or lack thereof of the people are exposed and marveled at. And yes, this is the one were Jesus calms the storm. But what is so important about all this? Why should we care? This episode is a wake up call, a description of the state of modernity, and a call to adventure, may your acceptance of the task be your ticket on the boat.

We take a look at the story of Ruth in the Old Testament. How does Ruth relate to us as Christians and how does the story by which the line of Neomi was preserved relate to how we are to interact with The Church and how we are to be saved through Christ?

You've read the title, so.. what's the answer? Well this video doesn't claim to completely answer the question nor do it perfectly, however Ben kicks us off with that simple question. What does it mean to even be a Christian or non- Christian? Our we set free by these strange beliefs or constricted? And if we are to be Christians, what are we to do in light of that? If these things intrigue you, enjoy.

How can I give you up, O Ephraim? How can I hand you over, O Israel? This is the story of Hosea, a prophet tasked to personify God's heartache over Israel, Hosea married a whore who was unfaithful, yet he walked in Christ-like love the whole way. From Hosea, to Luke, Ephesians and even Revelation, with personal stories in the mix too! This is a must watch from ATT, and the 3rd installment of the Heroes of Old series. Enjoy!

On this episode we run over one of Pauls letters to Timothy. We discuss how Paul portrays a goal all Christians should strive toward without deviating. Put simply? Get your head in the game, stay on the straight, and do not get distracted with civilian pursuits. 

This is the second episode of the Materialism series where Josh continues his attack on the Materialist worldview, this time he leans on the uselessness of the Materialist worldview when it is in it's purest form, he also discusses Nihilism, and particularly the circular reasoning of 'Active Nihilism', the optimistic idea of "if there is no meaning, then why not?". Enjoy!

ATT, your catalyst to deeper thinking.
