Religion on the Mind

Why Are Some Christians So Certain? Q&A w/Kristen (#262)


Listen Later

You know her and love her — my friend and recurring guest Kristen Tideman joined me this week for another listener-powered Q&A session!


We recommended voices outside Christianity who provide thoughtful commentary on religion and culture, considered why some Christians seem to have a gentle certainty in their faith while others wrestle with doubt, recommended resources for those interested in psychology but not necessarily at a graduate school level, and wrapped with our Q&A tradition, “podcasts someone else should start.”


I always look forward to bringing Kristen back for these episodes, so please continue to send in your questions and feedback!
