Show Notes

Those weird faith thoughts you don’t want to admit? Mark Tabb wrote a whole book about them: “Why don’t I feel anything? Is God kind of mean but we’re all afraid to say something? Can I call myself a Christian if I don't watch The Chosen? If I believe God is in control, why am I upset about politics?” And the hardest (but maybe most important) one we should all be asking… What if I’m wrong?

 

If you’re exhausted by the rules of religion or the legalistic subculture of Christianity, this episode will help you breathe and laugh and not take it all so seriously. You can love Jesus even when He really doesn’t make much sense at all.
