In this week's episode we sit down with former church planter, author, theologian, scholar Brad Jersak to talk about his book, "Her Gats Will Never Be Shut". We talk about hell, what the Bible says about it, what the Bible doesn't say about it, and why the idea of an eternal over where people are tortured for eternity is ridiculous.

Greetings! It's week 2 of our series "Glenn's Friends" and today we're sitting down with former megachurch pastor, Kent Dobson. In what some would consider a pastor's dream Kent took over Mars Hill Church after Rob Bell left, but then ended up realizing that his life was headed in a different direction. In today's episode he shares some of his story and talks to us about how faith isn't about certainty and it isn't about a quest for the right answers; faith, rather, is about something much more precious.
Enjoy!

It's week 3 of our "Lies We Believe About God Series" and this week we're talking about the lie which says that God expects more us. There's nothing wrong with aiming to do more in our lives in an effort to develop ourselves both personally and spiritually; but there is a problem when we buy into the lie which says that God has rigged the universe in such a way that the only way He can bless us if we work harder and do more. Have you ever been made to feel ashamed because you weren't doing enough? Or have you ever felt full of pride because you felt like you were doing so much more than everyone else? This episode will give some perspective!

In this week's episode I share with you some of what I learned from a book I read in a partnership with Mike Morrell and Speakeasy - "The Lotus and the Rose: A Conversation Between Tibetan Buddhism and Mystical Christianity". Mike sends me books every once and a while and all I need to do is read them and share them with YOU on the What If Project via a blog post and / or podcast. I'm hoping to do this every few months so we'll consider this a trial run.
Enjoy!
