REST: Recovering from Spiritual Trauma

Guest Interview | Mike and Susan Adams : Part 2

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2299097/open_sms] In this episode I continue my conversation with the husband and wife grace team, Mike and Susan Adams, hosts of the podcasts The UnSunday Show [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-unsunday-show/id1451285749] and The Grace Café [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-grace-cafe-podcast/id1695491826]. In the last episode, they each shared their stories of how they met Jesus and why they started their podcasts. In this episode we focus our conversation on the covenants found in the Bible.  We will be discussing the way certain churches have created a whole belief system called covenant theology. This system is an unbiblical way that they control believers by convincing them that they are bound to keep part of the Old Covenant law.

They are the creators and hosts of 2 podcasts: The UnSunday Show [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-unsunday-show/id1451285749], which asks honest questions about the origin and validity of institutional church rules, traditions, and practices.
