Why Do Bad Things Happen

Does Prayer Work

A cornerstone of the Christian faith is prayer….but does it actually work? And if it does, what does it do? We aren’t afraid to get real as we discuss: - Defining “works” or “doing anything” when it comes to prayer - Our doubts we’ve had about prayer - What we believe prayer is and isn’t - The mystery of God - And more! We hope as you listen, you’ll know that your questions, doubts, and beliefs about prayer are welcome. And it’s okay to not have all the answers and to embrace the mystery. We can’t wait for you to listen and join us in the Saintuary!

Can We Really Love Like Jesus?

Welcome to Saintuary: a safe place for doubts, discussion, and discovery! In this episode, we are talking about what it means to love like Jesus. Because the unfortunate truth is, today Christians as a whole are not seeing as loving. And that breaks our hearts. In this episode, we touch on: 1. What sometimes the Church and Christ followers can often mistake as loving others …. but is not 2. What the Church does well…but sometimes views it as the whole, not just the part of loving others it is 3. What the Church is sometimes lacking enough of…which is what we believe loving like Jesus really is 4. We also provide 4 song recommendations that can help build your faith and remind you of how we are called to love (after all, faith comes from hearing) No matter where you are in life, we hope you walk away from this episode knowing you are so loved, and being encouraged to love others well.
