Great interview on Radio West

Post by Raylan Givens » Tue Jan 17, 2017 11:38 pm

A lot of this resonated with me. Especially the idea of focusing not on who Jesus/God is (whether he died on cross and was resurrected), but on what he wants us to do and be.

Let me know what you think...

I started listening to this last night, but couldn't finish it and picked it up this morning. That was awesome! He really nails it! I could actually go to his church and enjoy the sermon.

I listened to this podcast today instead of going to EQ. This was awesome. He gets it. Favorite quote was what his daughter stated about the Christian church "You keep answering questions that no one cares about anymore." That is how I feel at church now. It seems so irrelevant. And thoughtful discussion is discouraged for apathetic regurgitation of the same pablum week over week.

I enjoyed this podcast a lot.
