  • EP61 - From Agnostic to Theology Professor: Dr. Paul Eddy on Faith, Truth & Covenant Love
    2026/09/07
    EPISODE SUMMARY:In this episode of Rooted, hosts Josie & Symone sit down with Paul Eddy, PhD, Professor of Biblical and Theological Studies at Bethel University and Teaching Pastor at Woodland Hills Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. Paul shares his personal faith journey from functional agnosticism to a life rooted in Jesus, explaining how God met him powerfully during his time as a Bethel student and led him from medicine into biblical and theological studies.Together, they explore what it means to be rooted in truth in a post-truth culture, how Christians can connect both the head and the heart in discipleship, and why community is essential for spiritual growth. Paul also unpacks biblical love through the lens of agape, explaining why real love is not merely emotion-based but choice-based, self-sacrificial, and oriented toward the good of the other.The conversation then dives into covenant relationships, marriage, singleness, dating, emotions, spiritual warfare, and the danger of turning romance into an idol. Paul offers wisdom for young adults navigating relationships, reminding listeners that marriage is a gift, but Jesus alone completes us. The episode closes with a powerful truth Paul believes every Christian must be rooted in: God looks like Jesus.—----------------------TIMESTAMP SUMMARY:01:40 — Paul’s 32 years at Bethel and why teaching students still matters03:20 — How to talk with people who are questioning faith07:00 — Paul’s faith journey from functional agnosticism to encountering God10:40 — Rooted in truth in a post-truth culture13:40 — Balancing head and heart in Christian discipleship18:40 — Paul and Kelly’s unexpected love story20:40 — Biblical love, C.S.

He also shares real stories from red-light districts, brothels, rescue homes, and aftercare ministries around the world.Through it all, James points back to the gospel: every person is created in the image of God, every victim has a name and a future, and real freedom is both physical and spiritual.
