March 09, 2023Ep. 76: He Will Come AgainIn this episode, Ardaschir, Rory, and Joel discuss what the Nicene Creed has to say about the return of Christ.

February 16, 2023Ep 74: In Accordance with the ScripturesThe Nicene Creed tells us that Christ’s resurrection was “in accordance with the Scriptures.” In this episode, Rory, Joel, and Ardaschir discuss the claim that Christ can be seen in every passage in the Old Testament and look at specific passages that foreshadow Christ’s life, death, and resurrection.

December 15, 2022Ep. 71: And Was BuriedWhen we consider some of the splits that have divided Christians for a millennium, none can be more intimidating than what awaits us in the next life. This week's episode covers the line "And was buried," with little other context as to what Jesus was doing in the time in-between His death and resurrection. By contrast, the ninth line of the Apostle's Creed reads "he descended to hell" which gives more account of where Jesus was that Holy Saturday. Ardaschir, Rory, and Joel discuss the Biblical representation of both heaven and hell, the Catholic view of purgatory, what is punishment, and justice, and how Christians should consider these two places of their faith. ...more50minPlay
December 08, 2022Ep. 70: He Suffered DeathNo other symbol of Christianity is as famous as the image of the cross. We see the Cross not only in Churches but in tattoos and jewelry. Because of how mainstream the Cross has transformed in our society from a once horrific execution instrument to a symbol of God’s mercy and grace, it’s confusing to fathom what Christ’s death meant for humanity. When a man throws an infinitely large baseball at an infinitely large window, why can’t an infinitely large God fix it? In this week's episode, Ardaschir, Rory, and Joel discuss why Christ’s death was necessary for the salvation of humanity. What is the atonement, and how can Christians celebrate knowing that the debt of their sin has been paid?...more57minPlay
November 24, 2022Ep. 69: For our Sake He was CrucifiedWhen thinking of the most prolific symbols found in Christianity, none is more striking than that of the cross. The cross today is regarded more as a symbol of peace and faith; very seldom do we remember how Roman officials reserved crucifixion as a genius punishment reserved for the most diabolical of criminals. In today's episode, we discuss the importance of Jesus' crucifixion, how His death fulfilled Old Testament prophecies, as well as how it was perceived by the Jews, Romans, and new Christians at that time. The aim of learning about His crucifixion will help us understand what it meant for Christ to say "It is finished" before taking His final breath. ...more50minPlay
