Over the last couple of months, we’ve been exploring a series of interconnected questions. We first asked, "Aren’t all religions the same?" and then moved on to "Why should we trust the Bible?" last month. Our next topic follows naturally: addressing objections to the church.

In this episode, we’ll discuss the mass exodus from the church, why so many people are turned off by what they’ve seen, and what the church is truly supposed to stand for. We encourage you to listen through to the very end.

Welcome back to our Q&R Podcast! I’m Rebekah Hannah, the director of LSQ Kids here at Redeemer LSQ. Together with Michael Keller, we’re framing this podcast for the seeker and skeptic in all of us. It’s designed to foster a posture of curiosity about ourselves and others.

At Redeemer LSQ, we values questions and the people who ask them. We will always be a place where skeptics are welcome. We believe that questions lead to dialogue, dialogue fosters relationships, and relationships create community. So we won't be shy about tackling anything on this podcast.
