Ask Away

We all have questions: Who am I? Does my life have value? What determines my identity and my purpose? Is there a God? Does he care? What will happen when I die? Is it even possible to know the truth? Vince and Jo invite you to Ask Away.

In our culture today we talk a lot about the importance of “self-forgiveness”, but what does that actually mean? Is it even coherent to “give” something to yourself? Most importantly, how is this relevant to the Christian life when “only God can forgive sins" (Mark 2:7)? If forgiveness is a topic that you struggle with (and honestly, who doesn't?!) then we hope that this week's episode of Ask Away will be an encouragement to you.

We are committed to all sorts of things in life, whether that be our hometown sports team, a political party, a fitness routine, or our religious faith. There can be many reasons to be committed to Christian practices that have little to do with Jesus Christ (e.g. tradition, culture, community, values, etc.). But is God inviting us into more? This episode of Ask Away features a talk that Vince gave at the Jersey Shore this summer as he asks the question: Could it be that we fail to experience real empowering in the Christian life because we’ve diminished what Jesus means when he asks us to follow him?

The Bible describes becoming a Christian as so transformative that a new believer is likened to a “new creation”. This week Jordach asks, if that is true then how do we make sense of the fact that we often find unbelievers with a healthier balance of self-regulation, EQ, interpersonal interactions and an overall better lifestyle? Shouldn’t we expect that living with the Spirit of God inside would dramatically improve a person’s behavior? And if that’s not what we’re seeing, then is that evidence against the plausibility of the Christian faith? We'll be wrestling with this topic on today's episode of Ask Away.

Stories that shock us. Laws that unsettle us. Behavior that baffles us. Richard Dawkins once referred to the God of the Old Testament as “arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction.” Is Dawkins’ right in his verdict? And if not, how can we read the Old Testament in a way that helps us to make sense not only of the more troubling texts, but of the character of God? In this special episode of Ask Away, we’re featuring a conversation on this topic between Jo and our longtime friend, Dan Paterson, which was originally hosted on his Questioning Christianity podcast.

When it comes to dealing with anxiety, some secular models suggest that we are either underestimating ourselves or overestimating our problems—either we are stronger than we think or our burdens are lighter than we think. 
But what do we do when our fears are not exaggerated and irrational but actually grounded in the reality of our broken world? What do we do when our burdens are legitimately too heavy for us to carry on our own? This week on Ask Away, Vince discusses some of the secular models for engaging with anxiety, before offering a biblical hope that transcends all other approaches.

“I’ve always been more attracted to the idea that we make our own meaning. What do you think about that?” This question, asked by a freshman at UC Berkeley, gives voice to a perspective many hold today. What makes life meaningful? And is that a goal human beings can accomplish by ourselves? If these questions interest you, then check out this week’s Ask Away to hear a response from Jo at a recent event in Las Vegas.

Why believe the whole Bible?

Wednesday Jul 17, 2024

Wednesday Jul 17, 2024

Just because I believe in Jesus, why should I have to believe the whole Bible? Aren’t some passages outdated or even problematic? This week on Ask Away, Vince and Jo respond to a listener who asks if there is any clear and compelling logical rationale for treating the Bible as divinely inspired as opposed to a fallible authority that’s sometimes right and sometimes wrong.

Is it Christian to want to win?

Wednesday Jul 03, 2024

Wednesday Jul 03, 2024

“Climbing the ladder.” “Winning at life.” “Coming out on top.” “Living the high life.” We use phrases like these to describe success all the time, but is this a healthy paradigm for living well? In this episode of Ask Away, Jo interviews Vince about what motivates us to get out of bed in the morning, the pitfalls of power, and whether “winning” is something to be celebrated in the Christian life.

“Who made God?” This week on Ask Away, Vince responds to this live Q & A question, followed by two others on the topics of suffering and mental health. Vince wrote his doctoral thesis on the question of why God would allow horrendous evils, and if you want to read more from him on this subject you can download a free copy of his book with Oxford University Press here: https://www.kardiaquestions.com/non-identity-theodicy

This week’s episode is taken from a live Q&A event that Jo did with a group of female students at Stanford University who had reached out for help with questions about faith that they were wrestling with. The honest and energized discussion spanned questions such as why Adam was created before Eve, were women an afterthought, do women have less value than men in Old Testament law, is the book of Proverbs male-gaze driven, and does the Bible celebrate women?
