    Ep. 30 - Contentment or Contempntpment: Which Tent Are You In?

    This one starts off a bit out there. But Alec and Grant eventually get down to it and talk about contentment as a spiritual virtue.  Contentment is a Biblical idea that seems more and more difficult in modern day.  This episode tries to give some ideas why that is and what to do about it.

  • Ep. 23 - Finding Comfort in Suffering

    Finding Comfort in Suffering

    Suffering is a universal experience. We've all gone through it at various points in our lives, although often in very different ways. On this episode, Alec and Grant talk about what we should do during our suffering to help us find comfort from God and endure our hardships. They also talk about how you might comfort someone else who is suffering. Scripture is full of wisdom about suffering, but it's a little hard to read the Bible on your morning commute or at the gym, so Despised For Youth is here to help with an abridged guide to finding comfort in suffering.

    The DFY Christmas Retrospecial
     
    Albeit a little delayed, this is the official DFY Christmas extravaganza! You have the incredible ability to choose whether you will enjoy this podcast now, reminiscing about this recent holiday season, or wait until December to crack it open like the giant bubblewrap-filled tupperware you keep the ornaments in. A difficult choice to be sure. On this episode we talk about the traditions of Christmas and New Years, analyzing them with a Christian perspective and holiday cheer.

  • Ep. 21 - Oh Boy... Calvinism and Arminianism
    Oh Boy... Calvinism and Arminianism
     
    One of the most hotly debated topics in Christianity, the mechanism of salvation is an important issue to have an informed opinion on. Grant and Alec discuss the two main reformed positions and give their thoughts on which is more biblical. While they definitely have strong convictions about the issue, they want to underscore their respect for a difference of opinion as long as it is built upon a person's best understanding of the scripture. Whether Calvinist or Arminian, we serve the same God who is able to uphold us despite our lack of complete understanding in this life. But if you're Semi-Pelagian, that's just plain wrong. Come on, guys, did you even read the thing?
