Faith+X

To say the last few months have been heavy would be an understatement. The individual and collective losses brought about by the pandemic and other happenings have been felt worldwide. In this episode, we are joined by the incredible Jeremy Burroughs, Pastor of Catalyst Church located in Bethesda, Maryland USA as he helps us grapple with what it means to mourn as Christians. Is there a Biblical way to grieve and how should Christians approach loss? This episode attempts to respond to some of these questions.

TW: Listeners are warned that the following episode contains discussions of sensitive issues surrounding grief and loss. Please listen at a time when you feel ready. We pray that however difficult, this conversation will serve as one of the steps in your healing journey. 

In this episode we delve deeper into the common phrases that Christians and non-Christians alike use on a regular basis. We ask the question: however pervasive they may be, are they biblical or are they myths? Grab your favorite drink, take a seat and join your hosts as they challenge themselves to think through some of these beloved sayings.

Every group or "sub-culture", as social scientists refer to them, has their unique mode of communication. Language has a major part to play in how we all interact and Christians aren't any different. In this light-hearted episode, Linda and Georgia explore the intersections between (coded) language and faith by delving into popular Christian phrases. Get ready for your very own Christianese boot-camp as we give a crash course to all who might be unfamiliar with “church talk” aka Christianese.

In our inaugural episode, we introduce you to your hosts: Georgia and Linda as they share a little more about themselves and the story of how they met to begin a friendship that brought the world Faith+X.
