463 I'm a Believer Now, What's Next? Build Your Circle & Prayer

A couple weeks ago I had a stimulating coffee conversation with two men from my church. They were asking piercing questions, one of which was, "how should I be missional? Is Christian mission just for pastors and teachers?" Their probing queries gave me an idea for a series, what should one do after either confessing Christ as Lord or determining to go deeper into the Christian way? Mark and I think through this important question by addressing the topics of building your circle and the role of prayer. On the latter, we even talk about the way prayer changes us as against a monastic approach of centering prayer. Come laugh and think with us.

302 Who Hates the Atonement?, Relaxed Evangelism

My friends grew concerned when their church changed its vocabulary and stopped preaching both forgiveness of sin and Jesus as sacrificial Savior. It made me wonder, who hates the atonement and why? Was it really only St. Paul who emphasized Jesus' atoning death? In this episode I also discuss Adam Curry's presence on Joe Rogan's podcast, whether tolerance is a Christian virtue, recent revelations about January 6, and I share poignant things I've learned reading The Gulag Archipelago. Come think and laugh with me!
