I Don't Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEIST

Why Do You Do What You Do: Truth or Incentives? - Part 2


Listen Later

Are you following the truth or are you following incentives that may cause you to turn your back on Christianity and throw Jesus under the bus? On this midweek podcast episode, Frank continues the conversation on the powerful incentives that often prevent us from denying ourselves and picking up our cross for Christ as we go through our daily lives. He'll answer questions like:


  • What does FOMO (the fear of missing out) reveal about our underlying motivations?
  • Why does the question, "If Christianity were true, would you be a Christian?" often reveal a non-believer's true intentions and desires?
  • What did Norman Geisler mean when he said, "Fraternity will almost always overcome theology."?
  • What are some examples from the Bible when people follow incentives instead of following Christ?


Near the end of the program, Frank addresses two listener questions related to this topic--one from an Indian American who is struggling to commit to Christianity because his family wants him to embrace his Hindu roots, and the second from a Muslim seeking clarification on some differences between the Quran and the Bible. There's no doubt that following Christ is ever an easy decision to make, and even Christians are susceptible to falling off the rails for the sake of convenience and not ruffling any feathers. But we hope this episode will encourage you no matter where you are on your journey with Jesus!
