The Thinking Cup Podcast

With the nomination of a conservative Supreme Court Justice, the abortion debate has come back to the forefront. Is abortion moral? Even if it’s not, do I have the right to tell someone what is or isn’t? In this podcast, Mike and Ben discuss in this admittedly uncomfortable conversation. Plus, coffee talk and some really bad dad jokes.

There is a growing reality that many people aren’t just ignorant of the Bible and its stories, they are also skeptical of them. In this episode we’re discussing hermeneutics: what they are and why they matter--especially since hermeneutic is not a word most people use.

PLUS -- More dumb dad jokes and coffee shop talk.

It's not your normal Bible talk.

Why are we so desperate to have everyone choose a side or position? Today we take a look at religion, politics, political parties, and why we’re so anxious to impose our positions on others, and have them agree with us.

It's not your normal Bible talk.

With the elections heating up and drawing closer, it might seem like there is some real craziness and absolute silliness going on. 

How do we arrive at the ideas and preferences we have? And more importantly, what is the solution for the division and polarization that is going on? Is it even possible?

These questions, as well as some fun coffee talk, dumb dad jokes, and a specific Word from the Bible is all iincluded. It’s part 2 of Mike and Ben’s conversation on why good people are divided by politics.

Let’s face it. It’s brutal in our society and local communities right now. The political world is heating up with the current election cycle. And as a result, the debates on Social Media, in the breakroom at work, and even within our own homes, thoughtful discussions have and are turning into shouting arguments. 

Today we want to take a balanced look at both sides of the aisle, and seek for understanding not only from a concerned citizen’s perspective, but from a Christian and Biblical world viewpoint as well.

Is politically correct speech driving you crazy? What if it's really limiting our ability to speak freely about the things that really matter? And what does an effective Christian response to political correctness look like?

Blaming others is a natural and great way to push people away. If you want to create a dangerous environment where there is no trust and feelings of judgment--you can just blame them. This is part 2 in our conversation that began with Episode 12, The Blame Game.

The Blame Game, complete with finger-pointing, fault-finding, buck-passing, and pain inflicting, is one of the most destructive human tendencies. When something goes wrong, do you immediately try to figure out who was at fault? In this episode, the guys explore the why of the game, and how we can quit as winners.

Society seems to be losing its ability to focus on the things that really matter. People are outraged over everything from gun control, wearing masks in public, and racism. What drives it? How do we overcome it? It’s our most outrageous show yet.

What do we mean when we say something is right or wrong? Who determines what is right or what is wrong? Is there such a thing as absolute truth? Mike and Ben discuss how the truth has been minimized to individuals in this engaging conversation on moral relativism.
