Brains, Bibles & Beyond!

Podcast Season 2, Episode 3: From Amish to Amazing Grace

In this powerful episode of Brains, Bibles & Beyond!, we tackle a fascinating biblical question, wrestle with an important church-life issue, and hear incredible testimonies of God's transforming grace.

🧠 Stump the Theologian Did God tell David to number Israel, or did Satan tempt him to do it? We unpack the apparent contradiction between 2 Samuel 24:1 and 1 Chronicles 21:1, exploring how these passages fit together and what they teach us about God's sovereignty and human responsibility.

🌎 Cultural Controversies Should you choose a church based on what you can receive or on how you can serve? We discuss the tension between finding a church that helps you grow spiritually and finding a place where you can faithfully use your gifts to build up the body of Christ. How do we strike the right balance?

🎙️ Main Segment: Growing Up Amish and Finding Christ This episode features a heartfelt conversation with two former Amish men who share their journeys from growing up in Amish communities to becoming born-again Christians. Hear firsthand stories about Amish life, family, faith, challenges, and the life-changing discovery of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. Their testimonies offer a unique glimpse into a world few people truly understand and serve as a powerful reminder that the gospel transforms lives.

Whether you're interested in theology, Christian living, or inspiring testimonies of God's grace, this episode has something for everyone.

Brains, Bibles & Beyond!Season 2, Episode 2B: Cultural Controversies

Are modern American churches too political?

In Cultural Controversies, we discuss a topic that affects nearly every congregation in America: Have churches become too political—or not political enough?

We'll explore the difference between being biblical and being partisan, examine the church's responsibility to address moral and cultural issues, and consider how Christians can engage the public square without losing sight of the gospel. Where is the line between faithful biblical teaching and political activism? How can churches speak truth about controversial issues while keeping Christ at the center?
