Theology on Air

Meredith, Sarah, Evan and first-time guest Colin Bagby looks at headlines with a theological twist. Golden calf statues, the Equality Act, and conspiracy theories take center state. 

Should cities in Harris County become sanctuary cities for the unborn? Do cities have the legal right or even the moral right to restrict access to abortion and abortifacient drugs? Or do we live in a free country and that means that women should have access to abortions whenever and wherever they are desired? We talk about that and much more on today’s Theology on Air. 

We are joined by Dylan Cumberland and Mark Lee Dickson to look at the sanctuary city movement and ask how Christians assess the question of abortion. Dylan is a politically-active Methodist who favors rights to reproductive healthcare. Mark Lee Dickson has been described as a traveling salesman for the cause of creating sanctuary cities. His website is sanctuarycitiesfortheunborn.com

Have you ever noticed that the Bible seems to change in Chapter 12 of Genesis? Gone are the grand, sweeping stories of creation, fall, flood, and destruction. Now, it's basically about a guy and his wife and kids. BORING. Or is it? What is the significance of the stories and covenants from Genesis 12 to 50 and how do they continue the story of the revealed God of the universe? We talk about that and much more with Clay Brown of Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church on today's Theology on Air.  

Clay currently serves as Equipping Pastor at MDPC. His education includes a Ph.D. in Philosophy and Apologetics through Trinity Theological Seminary and University of Liverpool, with a dissertation on C. S. Lewis.

David Bennet joins Theology on Air to talk about LGBTQ celibacy, loving Jesus, and staying faithful. He is the author of A War of Loves.

Does the soul exist? Oh, wait, scratch that. We’ve already had that debate and that interview. We actually have a more nuanced question to ask to two Christian philosophers today: what KIND of soul do we have? Are we souls or are we souls and bodies? When do we get a soul? Does its existence rely on our physical bodies, and what does that say about what happens when we die? Does this topic offer up commentary on other issues, like transgenderism, abortion, or near death experiences? Evan Friske and Eric Hernandez join us for a Christian vs. Christian conversation today around the nature of the soul on today’s Theology on Air.

Some of the most debated - and yet, most important - stories in the entire Bible are in the first few chapters….right there in Genesis. Are these stories true? Myth? Something in between? And how do they set the stage for the rest of the Bible? We talk about that and much more with Clay Brown from Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church on today’s Theology on Air.  Clay currently serves as Equipping Pastor at MDPC. His education includes a Ph.D. in Philosophy and Apologetics through Trinity Theological Seminary and University of Liverpool, with a dissertation on C. S. Lewis.

What is consciousness? Where does it come from? How is self-awareness different from the soul? What makes a person a person? Does our understanding of human consciousness force us to question ideas like evolution, or even the existence of God? We talk about that and much more on today’s episode of Theology on Air with Dr. Josh Rasmussen. Learn more about him here.

Paul, Evan F., and Evan M. gather to talk about current events in our first podcast of 2021. We look at Critical Race Theory in the SBC, some new abortion laws and Star-Lord's (Chris Pratt's character in Guardians of the Galaxy) becoming bisexual and polyamorous. 

Dr. Craig Keener, who has literally written the book on miracles, joins Houston TOT to look at miracles. He offers compelling evidence of miracles in our own time and the panel looks at whether the miracles in the Bible are believable or not.
