Beyond Sunday episodes

  • Episode 180 – A Call to Love: A Christian Conversation about Transgender Issues (Part 1)

    Here in Texas, recent directives by the state’s Governor have opened a new realm of questions about youth and LGBTQ issues. At Beyond Sunday, we don’t claim to have all the answers but we also don’t want to back down from the hard questions that face our faith. So we’re bringing you a special 2 part episode to help us wrestle with questions and respond with love and compassion to the genuine struggles of our transgender siblings in Christ.

    In Part 1, Patrick and Elise are sitting down with Roxy Waguespack, Lord of Life member and clinical therapist. The three of them are looking at cultural issues that the transgender community is facing and how the world around them can help and, unfortunately, so often hurts, their journey.

  • Episode 179 – An Eye for an Eye? Or Turn the Other Cheek?: A Christian Response to War

    As war rages in Ukraine brought on by Russia’s unprompted aggression, Beyond Sunday wants to ask the question that is on many of our minds: What should Christians do in a way? The Bible has some conflicting teachings on how to respond when violence is done to you. And, especially in the Hebrew Scriptures, doesn’t seem to have a problem sending people into war. But is taking over a country in the name of God the same today as it was 4000 years ago? Should Christians be serving in the military? Should Christians be refusing to serve and acknowledging that they will face consequences? Join the conversation on this episode of Beyond Sunday.

  • Episode 178 – Women in Prison: A Faith Response to Cruel Prison Practices

    What is an appropriate way to punish people who are convicted of a crime? What happens when the punishment ends up affecting entire families for generations? How should Christians respond when massive institutions in our culture come into conflict with our faith? On this week’s episode we are taking a look at the way many women are convicted of crimes and the long lasting and cruel effects it can have on their families as well.

  • Episode 177 – The Problem with Evil: How our view of good and evil can shape our faith

    Can everything in this world be clearly marked as “good” or “evil”? According to research from the Pew center, Christians do not all agree on an answer to this question. And it turns out that how you answer it may have an impact on how you live out your faith in the world. Join the Beyond Sunday team as we tackle the challenges in identifying parts of our world as “good” or as “evil” and the faithful responses that we all strive for.

  • Episode 176 – Colbert on Faith: How do we share our faith in the public sphere?

    In a rare breaking news story, the Beyond Sunday Team is heading to late night TV. Or at least, to the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. In a recent episode Mr. Colbert was asked about his faith by one of his guests. His response garnered an array of responses from Christians. This week, Beyond Sunday is jumping into the conversation to ask a simple question: How do we best share our faith in the public sphere?
