Red Couch Theology

Well, hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. This week, we are talking about Easter and Resurrection. But the conversation took a turn right around the 25 to 30-minute mark of our conversation. And we talked about some of the challenging parts of the gospel. Gospel means good news; it is good news, and we think it means good news, but there are parts of the gospel that may be hard to stomach. We're gonna talk about that, and if you don't want to get through all our meandering, you can pick up the episode right around that 25 to 30-minute mark and hear about that. But without any further ado, you hear our sometimes meandering conversation about the gospel about resurrection and the good news. Let's tune in.

Hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. I'm so glad I finally said our podcast name correctly. In this week's episode, we will talk about quantum physics. We're gonna talk about buying and selling a field, not much about that one, but we're gonna talk about the meaning of life and the challenges in life and how they might connect to the stories we see in scripture and stories in general. So if you're trying to figure out how we're gonna tie quantum physics to narrative arcs to Jeremiah and fields, then this episode is for you; why don't you tune in? And we'll dive in without any anymore preamble?

Well, hello hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. This week we're dealing with all sorts of fascinating subjects like predestination and election. Yeah, that sounds strange to come out of Jeremiah, but it's one of the questions you all submitted, so we deal with it. And it stems from this weird phrase found in Jeremiah where it says God plans destruction for Israel. So, what do we do? Does God plan our destruction? Anyway, these are the kinds of questions we're gonna be dealing with this in this episode, and I'm not going to belabor the subject anymore here. Let's dive right into this episode.

Well, hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. This week, we're talking about generosity and giving. Actually, I think I learned a bunch of things from this week's episode and I hope you do too because my mind was shifted ever so slightly about God's heart when he talks about generosity is such a good, beautiful invitation because it's not just about healing and helping the person that the gift is given to. It's also about healing your soul. So I'm not going to give it any more of it away to you. So you're gonna have to listen to the episode, but it's, I hope it's helpful to you like it was helpful to me.

Well, hello. Hello and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. This week, it's a food show. I will be eating crackers on this show. And that's exciting and strange for a theology podcast. But that's okay. We're actually talking about thirst. And if you've ever woken up and wondered, gosh, there's something missing in my life. There's something, there's gotta be more to this existence than what I have right now. We're going to talk about that. Maybe your soul is thirsty for something more. And we're going to talk about, how do you acquire that? How do you drink from a well that actually quenches your thirst? So, anyway, let's dive right into this episode of the Red Couch Theology Podcast. Thanks for tuning in.

Well, hello, hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. This week on the episode, I'm both excited and a little bit nervous if I'm honest because we tackle some really hairy scary subjects when it comes to prophesy and maybe even what's going on. Is there a prophetic voice that needs to happen in America today? Are we going off the rails? We're going to deal with a lot of those questions in this book of Jeremiah in the season of lent. It's a little bit heavy and there are some tricky subjects to navigate, but we're going to try our best. So tune in and find out how do we wrestle with some of these issues that we've just talked about? So without any further ado, let's jump right into this week's episode

Is God Punishing America? | Red Couch Theology

Well, hello, Hello and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast This week, we're diving into our last week talking about hearing God's voice and it's kind of an interesting one I think because Alex starts to shift what we might have thought of as friendship with God, and he actually shifts it to this language of patronage, and that might make you squirm a little bit, that if God is our patron and that's what friendship means, does that mean he always is walking around with this attitude like we owe him something and that might actually make you squirm a little bit, but I want to invite you in to listen and you're gonna have to find out. Is he right? Do you agree with him about this? And maybe just, maybe it's actually a more beautiful perspective of friendship than we thought initially. So let's tune in and hear about friendship and patronage and hearing God's voice and do we owe God something?

Well hello hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. This week we have a guest because Yvonne Biel was a guest preacher on Sunday. So she joined us on the episode today and I'm really excited. I know I say that every single week, I say I'm really excited about this week's episode, and it is true every week. But this week I feel like we had a really provocative conversation about the nuances of hearing God's voice, about the complexity of that, about maybe some personal examples from each of us of how God's voice sounds to us. And then I think interestingly we also talked about what if I don't really want to hear God's voice sometimes, what if he tells me to give something up that I don't want to give up or to do something scary that I'm nervous to do or those sorts of things. So we're going to talk about all those things in this episode. So I hope you lean in a little bit and learn from the wisdom of Yvonne and Alex, and occasionally I'll say some things too. Yeah, let's dive in.

Well, hello, hello and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. This week, I'm gonna try and keep our intro a little bit short because we're talking about listening to God's voice and actually, that's a more complicated subject than you might think. We're going to talk about the nature of the scriptures, how do we know if it's got voice or not God's voice? We're going to deal with some tricky questions that people also submitted about this. And yeah, it's a long episode, but hang in there because I hope that this helps you start to frame the breadth and the width of this complicated subject of hearing God's voice in our everyday lives. So let's tune in.
