The Christian Podcast: Recent Episodes

The book, Pilgrim's Progress, has changed my life! Join me weekday mornings, as I read and discuss the incredible work of John Bunyan.
I grew up with a false concept of God. The word experience was a bad thing and if someone said a relationship with God was necessary part of being a Christian, that person was wrong. Were they wrong though? What do the Scriptures say?
First month of 2022 almost gone! Today, I'm sharing what I'm doing this year to grow and make progress in four areas. Looking forward to showing up here more often very soon.
In this episode:
1. I re-introduce my purpose of making this podcast as well as invite you to communicate any feedback that you have on this podcast to my website at TheChristianPodcast.com or email me at info@thechristianpodcast.com
- I read the first two of four challenges that the author addresses in introducing the second part of the Pilgrim's journey.
Note: This is the first episode (in a looong time) to be pre-recorded and not just the audio from a livestream. I hope the audio quality will be better. Also, I will no longer be live-streaming entire episodes to my social media platforms and am also considering different upload ideas. e.g. longer episodes (30min - 1hr) with only 1 or 2 uploads a week vs 20-30 min episodes daily. Again, your feedback is greatly appreciated!

Two is better is one; at least, it is in this episode of The Christian Podcast. This week, we discuss the passing of time, directions, but not angels.
This is merely the eighth episode of The Christian Podcast in which there are some distractions. LISTEN AT YOUR OWN RISK
Fancily named episode this week just so I could keep the theme going on with the titles. This week we discuss a subject that is no laughing matter. (pun intended) Next week, I bring on a guest and we discuss Christianity. (at least, thats the plan)
Question of the day: Is it possible to be a non-practicing Christian? (at least, when a Christian is defined as one is in the state of being like Christ?)
