Is Divine Grace All It's Cracked Up To Be Or Do Some Fly First-Class While Others Ride Coach? - Featuring Author, Speaker and Lead Radio Personality, Ronald J. McCray
Brief Episode Summary:
When my guest’s book arrived in the mail, it being the primary research tool I’d be using to develop this podcast interview, one extremely important matter became obvious to me, and it was going to demand that both of us call upon all the grace, open-mindedness, courage and dignity we could muster, having no desire to change the truths the other holds so dear! I thought the underlying theme of the episode was going to focus on my guest’s experience with and healing from sexual trauma, not how GOD views same sex relationships, but that’s okay. At the core is the question, is GOD who HE says HE is as interpreted by most conservative theologians, or can there be a different interpretation when historical language and culture of days gone by are considered? Whatever one decides, this is clear…the DIVINE can do nothing but love with an everlasting love, all of creation!

Key Topics:
- How could a loving GOD allow a nine year old to be raped by a relative and how does the child eventually recover and get over their anger towards a GOD who allowed it to happen?
- Is eternal fellowship with the Divine an act of Grace by Faith or does one's works play a role?
- Years ago, my wife Fran and I were invited by a gay man friend of ours to attend a church service years ago. The Pastor, a gay man, asked for a show of raised hands if you were gay and wished they could make it otherwise. A sea of hands went up. What should we say to them?
- When it comes to scriptural interpretation, what are we afraid of? Is GOD who HE says HE is or is HE who we say HE is?
- When a creative piece is crafted by one who is out of the religious mainstream, does that alone make it undesirable in the heart of the Divine?
- The mission of all things spiritual can be summed up in 1 word...LOVE!
- Since coming out into the light, Ron, by GOD's Grace, has made a significant positive impact on the lives of many! Discover what his primary goal was in writing his book, Is GOD Who He Says He Is?
