S3 Ep 5 Conversations With My Inner Atheist

Dr. Randal Rauser is an associate professor of historical theology at Taylor Seminary in Edmonton, Alberta.

S3 Ep 4 Transitions: Ministering to the Transgender Community 

Identified as male at birth and after living most of her life presenting as a cisgender male, Randi re-entered a new world as the person she has always been. Listen to Randi’s incredible journey of transitioning (at least on the outside) into a woman. She provides clarity on what led to this brave decision. In addition, she offers excellent advice on how to relate to our transgender friends and family. 

There are only four books in the New Testament that tell the story of Jesus. While they share different perspectives of Jesus' life on earth, they are very similar. In fact, 97% of the stories found in Mark can be found in at least one or two of the synoptic gospels. In this episode, Kumar talks with Geoff Crowley, a pastor and adjunct professor of Jesus and the Gospels. Put on your geek glasses, and get ready for a fantastic ride.

Living on Borrowed Time 

Kleyton Feitosa has been battling cancer for ten years. It took his leg, changed the course of his career, and has now metastasized to his liver. He was given two years to live - four years ago.  Listen to his inspiring story on how he chooses to live each day with purpose. 

I get sick when I see how so-called Christians have taken over our name.  I am embarrassed to identify with this group of vicious, judgemental people.  And yet, I love Christ.  Many parts of Christianity feel like it has been hijacked and replaced with something I don't recognize. 

Author Brian McLaren has written a book for those who feel like we are on edge.  Should we jump off the cliff or hang on for a bit longer?  This book may be the most important book you read this year (no hyperbole).  I hope this conversation with McLaren will resonate with your spiritual journey.
