116: What Should Christians Do With Euthanasia?

Real Talk Christian Podcast

11/04/21 • 65 min

The dictionary defines "euthanasia" as the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma. Although the practice is illegal in most countries, the desire for its legalization is increasingly growing and many countries have started legalizing the practice. In America, a doctor's choice and decision of euthanasia is illegal; however, voluntary euthanasia is legal in Oregon and Washington and will soon be legal in other states as well. How should Christians think about this subject? In this conversation, Marc and Fuller dive deeper in their conversations about the Imago Dei (being made in the Image of God) and how having a proper framework and worldview is essential when having this conversation with anyone, including our own loved ones who are struggling with painful or incurable diseases. // Links Mentioned in This Episode // https://medicine.missouri.edu/centers-institutes-labs/health-ethics/faq/euthanasia // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 111: Are Christians Too Obsessed with Abortion?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/111-are-christians-too-obsessed-with-abortion/ 069: I Know God Loves Me, but Does God Like Me?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/069-i-know-god-loves-me-but-does-god-like-me/ 052: Coffee Mug Christianity (Phrases Christians Should Stop Saying): https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/052-coffee-mug-christianity/ 048: Made in the Image of God: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/048-made-in-the-image-of-god/ 024: Christians & Doubt: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/024-christians-doubt/ 005: Christians and Music, Part 1: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/005-christians-and-music-part-1/ // Helpful Links // The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Brew it Forward Coffee Co: https://bit.ly/3k2Iz1Q Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com

250: The Illusion of Freedom - Is Life Without God Really Free?

Real Talk Christian Podcast

09/19/24 • 43 min

Show Notes:: When you talk to folks about Christianity, you often hear complaints that they don't want to follow a God that has a bunch of rules and regulations and makes people "not live their truth." You also hear from folks who walk away from the faith say that they are like a butterfly — they finally are free from their tightly bound cocoon and can fly free in the world. You also hear folks say that the fear of judgment is just Christian's ways of control people's lives and causing guilt and shame when there shouldn't be. But is this indeed true? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller sit down to discuss the difference between the world's version of freedom and what true freedom looks like.
