The Abnormal Christian

Brad and Natasha ask the question, what is a blessing?  Does God bless us with material things?  Is this something we should be seeking after?  Why are we so focused on laying up treasures here on Earth?  What did Jesus say about the rich.  In this episode we will take a look at Psalms 73, and the story of a man who was upset at the wealth of the wicked.  He enters into the Temple and finds new perspective on what really matters.

Brad and Natasha continue in their study of The Acts of the Apostles.  This week they go through chapter 11 and talk about Peter's return to Jerusalem where the Congregation(church) originated. We also see the first use of the term "Christian" in relation to believers.

Brad and Natasha talk about  having a desire for the truth.  Should we care about the accuracy of what we believe?  Do facts even matter when it comes to faith?  What is our source of our truth?

Brad and Natasha continue on in their study of the Acts of the Apostles.  In this episode they look at chapter 10 as Peter is presented with God's vision for the spreading the Gospel to the entire world. This is unusual for a devoted jewish man, and a bit difficult for Peter to understand.  

Brad and Natasha talk about the question "why do bad things happen to good people?" or "why me".  In this episode they take a look at the biblical viewpoint of persecution, problems, sickness and sin.  How do all these things intertwine with our relationship with God.  How does sin manifest itself in our bodies?  

Brad and Natasha talk about the second half of Acts chapter nine.  They continue on in their study of The Acts of the Apostles.  Paul is threatened, and Peter completes miracles to provide a testimony to the Glory of God.

Brad and Natasha talk about Romans 12:2 and what it means to conform to the mind of Christ.  Should we avoid the world and the things in it?  What does it mean to conform to current society?  Does God care about our conformity?

Brad and Natasha talk about what some of our responsibilities are as believers.  They focus on encouragement through the word of God, and specify what the "Church" actual is.  This episode looks at wanting to lift each other up versus tearing each other down.

Brad and Natasha continue on in their study of the Acts of the Apostles.  Saul, the great persecutor of the believers, goes through a dramatic change.  He is faced with his own sin, and must come to terms with the Messiah he meets.  A great miracle occurs and Saul is changed forever.
