Episode Ep 1414 | A Child’s Tragic Death Forces This Difficult Question About God
John Luke opens up about deconstructing his faith after years of hearing Christians use the Bible to defend conflicting ideas. Al and Christian wrestle with a local tragedy of a child’s unexpected death and the questions it raises about grief, justice, and God’s presence. The guys trace the rise of “my truth” back through the Enlightenment, naturalism, and the split between faith and reason, then consider whether artificial intelligence could be ushering in another massive shift in how people understand truth.
In this episode: Psalm 139; Acts 17; Daniel 3:17-18; Jeremiah 20; Isaiah 55:8-11; Isaiah 1:18; Genesis 22; Hebrews 11; John 1:1-14; Job 2:3; Job 42; John 9; Romans 1; Romans 10

Examine the great questions of Western theology from the ancient Hebrews through today. The gift of speech, or reason, given by God to man, enables us to think about God and to worship Him.
This free online course pursues this purpose by examining the nature of God as revealed in the Bible, exploring the great theological questions and controversies of the early Christian church, studying the history of the Reformation and Counter-Reformation, and much more.
We invite you to join us and explore the nature of the relationship between God and man, and how a proper understanding of this relationship can lead to a free and happy life.
