The fourth commandment states, "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy," and for thousands of years, faithful Jews around the world have abstained from working on the sacred day. Should Christians do the same? On the one hand, Paul said we are not under the law but under grace (Rom 6:14). On the other hand, all of the other commandments are restated in the New Testament. This week on Honestly, Though, Rebecca Carrell, Liz Rodriguez, and Nika Spaulding discuss the spirit of the law and what it means to keep it.

The problem of evil is as old as time. But where did it originate, and why is it so pervasive?

The Apostle Paul loved sports analogies. He told the Corinthians to run their race to win the prize and that he did not fight as one who "beats the air." The author of Hebrews told his readers to "throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles and to run with perseverance the race set before us." Sports mirror the Christian walk. This week on Honestly, Though, Dr. Paul Putz, the Program Director for the Master of Arts in Theology and Sports Studies and Assistant Director for the Faith & Sports Institute at Truett Theological Seminary sits down with Rebecca Carrell and Nika Spaulding to discuss the intersection of sports and faith and how it points us to Christlikeness.

Jalen Taylor was living his best life: a senior in college, popular with his friends, and multiple career opportunities. Then, for no apparent reason, he fell into a depression that he simply couldn't shake—not with counseling, not with medication, not with hospital care. Suicidal, he cried out to God. And God answered. Listen in as Jalen describes his encounter with Christ that led him out of the pit and into ministry.

Since the Da Vinci Code hit the New York Times Best Sellers list in 2003, questions and conspiracies have surrounded the Bible and its books. Why did the Gospel of John make it in but not the Gospel of Thomas? Or Mary? Why is the Catholic Bible different than the Protestant Bible, and which one is correct? Dallas Theological Seminary Professor and author Dr. Michael J. Svigel sits down with Rebecca Carrell and Nika Spaulding to chat about Scripture, ancient texts, and Christian fiction.

Psychologists espouse what God's people have known since Israel's conception: there is great power in gratitude. Neuroscientists have shown that practicing thankfulness can create new neuropathways, even helping to heal past trauma. But why does God command his people to thank him? Rebecca Carrell, Liz Rodriguez, and Nika Spaulding explore the "why" and "how" of thankfulness (and also talk about snakes).
