Bullet Proof Faith

Is Jesus God? Or, was he just a man? This is vitally important in the Christian faith. Some will say that Jesus was just a good man, or just a good moral teacher. Or, you may hear objections saying Jesus was only the Messiah, but not actually God. 

Christians believe that Jesus was 100% God, but also 100% man. This has profound consequences in the outworking of what we believe... and it is critical that we understand this. 
In this episode, Joel and Jordan answer the question "Is Jesus God?" as the second question in our series - 6 Questions you MUST have an Answer For.  Grab a pen and paper, put on that bulletproof vest, and listen in.

Back in Episode 3, we briefly mentioned Disney movies and the subtle themes that can be harmful to children.  In that discussion, Joel mentioned watching Encanto as a family, and several tools to help you evaluate media choices.  In this BONUS EPISODE, we go into more detail:
How to pre-screen movies for kids
Tools to use to evaluate content beforehand
And then, how to turn movie night into a Bible study.  We provide a bit of an outline and some practical tips on how to do that. Then, we walk through a specific example. 
Don't waste the time. Turn your movie night into a Bible study, family devotional, or just a good Gospel-centered discussion.
It doesn't have to be difficult. (or boring)

We continue in the "6 Questions..." series. In this episode, Joel and Jordan continue to answer the question, does God exist?  This episode looks specifically at the origin of the universe and how (against scientists hopes) the evidence points to a beginning point and a creator. Listen in, learn about the evidence in the origin of our world, and learn some ways to talk to the young ones about it. 

The start to a new series "6 Questions you MUST have an answer for."  And in this episode, we dive into perhaps the most important question you may ever ask... Does God exist? However, this is only an introduction to the topic, as we seek to understand the building blocks of how we as people see the world - our worldview.  What worldview are you seeing the world with? How does one interpret the world and events around them?  We hope to set up a general framework of worldview and go through the most popular ones... because next week we go 100% full send into answering the question "Does God exist". 

The final episode in our Truth Series. We have learned what truth is, where it comes from, and why we should be confident in it. Now, let's look at how to defend it.  How do we defend our faith? How can we prepare our children to do the same?  In this episode, we wrap up the Truth Series answering the question: How do we defend the truth?  We must prepare ourselves and our children to be ready to give a defense, without compromise, without changing, and while still loving people.
Thank you for listening to Bullet Proof Faith. We hope that this series has been helpful, and has "bulletproofed" you a bit, equipping you and your children to walk a little more boldly.

Oh and, shhhhh....  we also give a little bit of a sneak peek into our next topic!

Is the Old Testament reliable? Is it trustworthy? How do we know? It is thousands of years old. What evidence do we have to that says we can trust this ancient document? In the last episode, we talked a lot about the reliability of the Bible as a whole but focused a bit on the New Testament. This week, we look more at the OT.
Also, how can we connect the Old Testament to Jesus in a practical way in the minds of young children? This episode of Bullet Proof Faith covers all of that and more. History, Old Testament texts, the accuracy of scripture,  biblical archeology...  and we give you a fun, easy lesson to try with the kids. (and one short laughter stoppage from Jordan)

A summarized version of Peter Stoner's calculation and practical idea mentioned in the episode:
Is Jesus for Real? Mathematical Proof!

Is the Bible reliable? Is Scripture trustworthy? How did we get the Bible we have today? 
Last week, we talked about trusting the firm foundation of Scripture instead of our hearts. This week, we go into reasons why the Bible is actually worthy of our trust. What evidence do we have to demonstrate that the Biblical text is accurate? Can you be confident reading the Bible?  Listen to this week's episode of Bullet Proof Faith for answers... and a live look at an actual 1637 King James Bible. 

Should we trust our hearts? That is what our children, subtly, are told is correct. But is the heart a trustworthy source of truth? Let's explore that today.
