Shoreline Conversations

A special 2nd episode on the 9 Spiritual Pathways! We thought there was a lot more to talk about after our first Pathways podcast, so this time both Kevin and Sherry Harney are with us to go deeper into the concept. Keith returns to host the conversation!

The final episode of our Tactics series! Dennis takes us through the final 2 tactics on how to respond when the conversation devolves into name-calling, and how to strip claims down to the facts.

Kevin Harney interviews Gary Thomas about his book Sacred Pathways. Kevin and Gary have a long history and an insightful conversation debunking the idea that Christians connect with God in a set, uniform way.

Thomas and Dennis talk about 2 more tactics when having conversations or debates about beliefs. Dennis explains how to respond when someone won't let you get a word in, and how to respond when an argument is based purely on appealing to authority.

Dennis and Thomas talk about reductio ad absurdum, how to spot and deal with implications of an argument, and how to self-reflect on your own beliefs.

Thomas and Dennis talk about arguments that defeat themselves and how to listen for the signs that someone is making one of these self-destructive claims.

Thomas takes over as host as we film the next few episodes remotely. Dennis McFadden is back to talk about our first "tactic" when having conversations about beliefs and apologetics!

We're taking a quick break from our Tactics series to sit down with Josh Laxton. Josh has a PhD in Missiology and works as the Assistant Director of the Billy Graham Center and Assistant Director of Lausanne North America at Wheaton College in Wheaton, IL. Cole and Josh have a conversation about music, missions, and more!

New series! We'll be talking to Dennis McFadden about Greg Koukl's book, Tactics. In this episode we introduce the concept of Tactics, address some concerns in recognizing debate vs. conversation, and talk about the value of having some well thought out tactics in approaching debate or conversation involving apologetics and beliefs.

Keith Krueger is our guest host back with Kevin Harney to discuss division in the church, how to disagree without being the cause of that division, warnings from Romans of people and things that mislead us, and more! This is the last episode in our Romans series, next week we talk apologetics!
