142. When Faith Doesn't Feel Great (Ep74 Rebroadcast)
06/14/23 • 60 min
Welcome back, just one more time, to the Time Machine! Stephen's crazy work schedule at his day job is finally over, but between some much needed rest on Stephen's part and the summer already well under way, we needed a bit of a gap in the recording schedule. So we're bringing you an incredibly poignant rebroadcast in light of last week's revelations.
Is there anything more meta than a faith podcast talking about faith directly? What do we mean exactly when we talk about faith and how does it differ from beliefs or trust? What does it mean to leave "the faith"? Can you ever lose faith or do you just place your faith in something else? What does it mean for God to have faith in us?
Mentioned in the episode:
- Great Is Thy Faithfulness
- From the Perspective of God by Bo Burnham
- Dr. Who Wiki
- After Evangelicalism by David Gushee
