THE INDOUBT SHOW

How do we reconcile the seemingly harsh God in the Old Testament with the love and grace of Jesus in the New Testament? What about our response to those who seem to promote violence, slavery, war, human sacrifices or misogynistic values throughout the Old Testament? We’ve heard Christians even ask the question, “If Jesus truly fulfilled the law, why do we still need to study and preach from the Old Testament at all?” Join host Andrew Marcus this week as he sits down with one of the world’s most renowned theologians, Dr. Wayne Grudem, to walk through some of these questions about the Old Testament. 

How can humans have free will if God already knows everything that will happen? Is God intentionally sending billions of people to hell just because they were brought up in a different religion and haven’t had a chance to hear the gospel? How can an all-powerful and all-loving God coexist with the unimaginable evil and suffering in this world? Many Christians have been wrestling with these challenging questions for years, so we had to bring in the expert to unpack them for us! Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with Tim Barnett (Mr. B from Red Pen Logic) to study God’s Word and find answers to some of believers’ toughest questions. 

Tackling one of the most challenging questions of faith needed someone with incredible knowledge of God’s Word. In this episode of THE INDOUBT SHOW, host Andrew Marcus sits down with renowned theologian and author Dr. Wayne Grudem to take a deep dive into the character of God, the nature of justice, and the reality of human free will. Dr. Grudem provides biblical insight into why hell exists, what Scripture teaches about God’s holiness and love, and how we can reconcile the idea of eternal punishment with a good and merciful God. If you've ever wrestled with this question or know someone who has, this episode will equip you with thoughtful, biblical answers. Tune in for an engaging and theologically rich discussion that encourages both believers and skeptics to consider the truth of the gospel.

Samuel Okurut joins us for a vulnerable and gut-wrenching conversation about his traumatic past and his incredible testimony of finding God through horrific suffering. Growing up in Uganda, he experienced the joys of village life before being thrust into the horrors of war, eventually facing captivity, torture, and persecution—even after his conversion. In this episode, he shares his struggles with why God allowed his suffering to continue, what true forgiveness looks like, and how he ultimately found healing, purpose, and hope in Christ. His story, told in his book Living in the Shadow of Death: From a Child of War to an Ambassador of Christ, is a powerful reminder that God is present even in our deepest pain. This conversation is not for the faint of heart, but it will challenge you to embrace Christ in the face of suffering, grow in your faith, and hold fast to the hope of eternity.

Identity, gender, sexuality and relationships must be an ongoing conversation amongst the Church. As the climate around us continues to change, we need to anchor ourselves in the hope we have in Christ and the truths we find in Scripture. Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time hosting THE INDOUBT SHOW live at the Renewed and Transformed Conference with special guests Kyla Gillespie (Renewed and Transformed), Jonathan Bryden (Focus on The Family) Bryan and Bonnie Pue (The Union Movement) as they take questions from the audience and unpack foundational truths to help us understand how to live out God’s Word with grace and truth.

You may not realize it, but there is a big difference between forgiveness and reconciliation. The Bible has a lot to say about the importance it is for us to forgive someone, but how do we do that when someone keeps hurting us? What does the Bible say about justice, sin, evil and how we respond when someone wrongs us? Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with pastor and ministry friend John Beeson as he dissects what restoration ought to look like in our relationships, and how to trust God and others in the process. 

Often times, Christians can be accused of speaking a different language when it comes to their faith. Christianese has been a term that highlights a potential barrier between believers and non-believers, especially when it comes to sharing what we believe and why we believe it. We often get accused of being cultish when we use words, terms and phrases that sound strange to those who are not Christians. How do we live out our faith authentically without sounding strange? Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with ministry friend Trebor Angerman where they unpack how our speech matters within the church and beyond the four walls. 

Have you ever asked yourself why good things happen to bad people? Why does it seem like the wicked get to experience and enjoy money, rewards and prosperity while the righteous suffer and always seem to be enduring some sort of hardship or struggle? Many people believe that once you become a Christian, your life is perfect and everything always goes well with you. That is just simply not the reality! Check out this episode of THE INDOUBT SHOW with host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with pastor and author Jim Osman where they unpack the realities of life and how worldly prosperity that the wicked enjoy could be a part of their very judgement! 

Sometimes Christians think the answer to all the chaos in the world is ensuring that more and more believers take significant roles within government and become political leaders. If only Christians were in power, we wouldn’t find ourselves in such a mess. But is that necessarily true? This idea of Christian nationalism has been believed to be the answer. The reality is, at its core, Christian nationalism is idolatry. How do we navigate this if we live in a Christian nationalist country? Check out this week’s episode with host Andrew Marcus and guest Drew Strait as they dive into this very important conversation. 

There are many people who have walked away from their Christian faith. One quick glance through some ex-Christian reddit threads, we’ve been able to pinpoint some of the major issues and concerns that have caused this reality for people all around the world. Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with Apologetics Canada founder Andy Steiger and Creative director Troy Lydiate where they unpack these questions about God, how there is a counterfeit gospel being preached, and how important it is for us to be rooted in God’s Word when it comes to seeking answers to life’s biggest questions.
