Abraham is the man of the hour during week four of our series on salvation history. And there are a lot of moving parts to his story: Before he was Abraham he was Abram. He was called out into the wilderness by God. He's responsible for the practice of circumcision. He sent his illegitimate son away. And was asked by God to slay his only-begotten (legitimate) son as a sacrifice. Are all these events random or do they fit together, and how? Richaél Lucero connects the dots to show the bigger picture at work.

This week on the podcast we talk about leprosy and how we approach those who are suffering from health issues. This is a huge issue right now, how do we care for others? The instructions of the Old Testament were not to exclude people from being served with love, Jesus fulfilled the law and he served the lepers and healed them. Sometimes we take rules that "protect us" and block the self sacrificing service that we are called to live. Be not afraid

Questions Covered:

03:30 - How can we trust that the New Testament accurately tells us the words of Jesus when so much can be lost in translation? 

07:56 - Trent recently debated on the existence of God and his opponent said that he couldn’t use the “fine-tuned universe” as evidence because Trent has never known another universe to compare. How would you respond to this? 

17:00 - I know cloning humans is wrong. Is cloning animals unethical? 

23:04 - I struggle with feeling like everything I do is sinful. How can I deal with this scrupulosity? Can I be sinful by association, just working with non-Christians? 

32:02 - My friend believes that he has been cursed by an ancestor who was a Mason. How can I comfort and clarify the truth for this person? 

41:50 - I just started a master’s program at a Wesleyan college near me. How can I keep my faith and minister to people while I am attending this two-year program? 

46:40 - How do we know that Sacred Tradition is passed down faithfully?
