Just before Christmas, I got to talk with John Cooper of the band Skillet about his recent posts about what is happening within the church and the chaos in society. We also talk about his new book, Awake and Alive to Truth, which is a clarion call to Christians to live by biblical truth, rather than cultural norms.

Dr. Bobby Conway joins the podcast to talk about his deep struggle with doubt that led him to write a new intellectual memoir, Does Christianity Still Make Sense? In today’s episode, Bobby shares his story of coming to faith as a young adult, only to face unexpected intellectual doubts about the claims of Christianity. He talks about how he thought through issues like church hypocrisy, the moral failures of church leaders, and the increasing popularity of people claiming to be spiritual, but not affiliating with organized religion. He also covers the difference between doubting and questioning. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:FOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to think biblically in a deceptive world. Go to foundationworldview.com (http://foundationworldview.com/) and use the discount code ALISA to receive 10% off a family license.GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA to get 10% off your subscription and a price lock guarantee until 2026!Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa (http://www.goodranchers.com/alisa) for more information.SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off any product.www.sevenweekscoffee.com (http://www.sevenweekscoffee.com/)--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/music (http://www.alisachilders.com/music)There you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon:  www.patreon.com/alisachilders (http://www.patreon.com/alisachilders)To order “Another Gospel”:  www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/ (http://www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/)To order “Live Your Truth":  www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/ (http://www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/)To order “The Deconstruction of Christianity”: https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/ (https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/)For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.com (https://alisachilders.creator-spring.com/)To see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachilders (https://kit.co/alisachilders)Potential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/ (https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/)Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#241 Fired from CRU: The Mundells Share Their Story

Dr. Carl Trueman joins the podcast to talk about how the notion of human identity has changed over the course of modern history from an external source (your family, name, vocation) to an internal source (your feelings and sexual preferences). He also comments on the important role ancient Christian creeds play in fighting against the “expressive individualism” of our modern culture.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA, to get your FREE Chicken Wings for a YEAR!Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa (http://www.goodranchers.com/alisa) for more information.FOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to think biblically in a deceptive world. Go to foundationworldview.com (http://foundationworldview.com/) and use the discount code ALISA to receive 10% off a family license.SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off any product.www.sevenweekscoffee.com (http://www.sevenweekscoffee.com/)--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/music (http://www.alisachilders.com/music)There you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon:  www.patreon.com/alisachilders (http://www.patreon.com/alisachilders)To order “Another Gospel”:  www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/ (http://www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/)To order “Live Your Truth":  www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/ (http://www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/)To order “The Deconstruction of Christianity”: https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/ (https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/)For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.com (https://alisachilders.creator-spring.com/)To see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachilders (https://kit.co/alisachilders)Potential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/ (https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/)Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#240  The Countercultural Rebellion of Reciting Creeds in an Age of Expressive Individualism, with Dr. Carl Trueman

Dr. Christopher Yuan joins the podcast to discuss whether or not same-sex attraction is a sinless temptation or a sinful desire. This is the heart of conversations surrounding Side B theology, which teaches that same-sex sin is wrong, but the identity of “gay” is not. Christopher and Alisa also share some concerns surrounding the upcoming Exiles in Babylon Conference, which claims to equip Christians from a biblical perspective, yet features many speakers who promote Side B theology.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:SUMMIT MINISTRIESGive your teens an unshakeable faith that will last a lifetime.Use the code, ALISA24 for a 200.00 discount.www.summit.org/alisaFOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to think biblically in a deceptive world. Go to foundationworldview.com and use the discount code ALISA to receive 10% off a family license.SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off any product.www.sevenweekscoffee.comGOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA, to get your FREE Chicken Wings for a YEAR!Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa for more information.--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/musicThere you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/To order “Live Your Truth": www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/To order “The Deconstruction of Christianity”: https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/
