Is humanity totally depraved—or are we more blessed than we realize?

In this episode of Ascend the Hill, we start lighthearted with bizarre algorithm trends, slap-fighting rabbit holes, and a wild Coldplay scandal… but then dive deep into one of theology’s most misunderstood doctrines: Total Depravity.

We challenge common views from Calvinism, exploring whether we are born evil or born capable yet corrupted. We also unpack the “age of accountability,” the cost of true spiritual transformation, and why restraint leads to real pleasure.

Whether you're wrestling with God's justice, personal responsibility, or just want to hear a fresh take on grace and truth—this conversation is for you.
