Conversations with Matt DeLockery

The Gospel of Mark says Jesus is going to lead God's people into the promised land. But, they were already living in Israel. What's going on?

Why do bad people often seem to get away with things and have everything good while good people often get the leftovers? It would seem like an all-powerful and loving God should fix this.

Why in the world would a good and loving God not only just allow slavery but actually command it. Why would we worship a god who clearly doesn’t even have his own moral compass pointing in the right direction?

Overall, technology is a very good thing. There are, however, some side effects - some unintended consequences that are not positive.

My conversation with an atheist on the problem of evil/OT God

I can think of two main ways that we have to live by faith in our everyday lives. The first one is trusting God that He actually cares about us and will work everything out.

We're not supposed to have blind faith. OK, but what does true faith actually look like?

Faith is sometimes described as “believing something when you know it isn’t true.” That’s actually not faith. The technical term for that is “delusion.”

Really, what we’re asking when we ask this question is: Which translation is closest to the original? And the answer is...

(Note: I apologize for the audio. I was trying something new with my video feed, and it didn’t work that well. Next week, I’ll be back to normal).

From time to time, most of us have had that feeling that something is wrong. Our gut just tells us that something is off and shouldn’t be the way it is. But, the question is: now what? Where do you go from here?
