1. Is man essentially good? Most people think so despite the evidence. Since pot is now essentially legal - is it good? ok? What do you tell Johnny?
  2. Why does suffering hurt so much? Craig and Troy explore the idea that God works through our suffering for the benefit of others and ourselves, but He does so without us seeing Him work.

  3. Matthew 13: The Parable of the Wheat and the Tares Craig and Troy discuss multiple parables at once, and so they come to the conclusion that sometimes an evil weed looks like a righteous one but sometimes a good fish looks bad. But when it comes to the Kingdom, only Christ and His angels will know how to separate one from the other. How are we to know which ones Christ has died for?
  4. Cheap Grace, a monument to compromise. Gillespie and Riley continue their conversation about Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s book, The Cost of Discipleship. This episode, more talk about grace, Nazis, and why the Gospel “but” is so important.
  5. Cheap grace... some people would pay top dollar for that kind of breakthrough. Gillespie and Riley take a listener request and discuss Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s book, The Cost of Discipleship. Grace, discipline, Nazis, and why context matters in this episode.
  6. “What must I do to inherit eternal life?" Jesus answers that question with a parable. We have our own question: “Who am I in this parable?” But a better question is “Who is Jesus for me in the parable?”
  7. The Christian faith as expressed in the Creed - Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Special guest Caleb Keith who is in charge of Podcasts for 1517.org, Co-Host of the Thinking Fellows Podcast and editor of the book Credo, now available at 1517.org
  8. Chad and Daniel continue discussing Joshua’s interaction with the Commander of the Lord’s army and why this is certainly Jesus.
  9. “Vengeance is mine!” says the Lord. God has established governing authorities to punish the wrongdoer. How do we understand our role as Christians and our role as citizens? Craig and Troy wade into this topic and wrestle with God’s Word and difficult realities.
  10. We’d like to say that Craig and Troy wrestle with the teaching of election, but actually, it’s no struggle at all. The promises of God are freely given to all in Christ, and the elect are those who are in Him. He alone is our security.
  11. Heroes all have deep flaws and weaknesses. It is the same in real life as it is in myths. Craig and Troy take a look into the life and times of the Prophet Jonah. He is the kind of Bible Hero that we love to hate, but mostly because he is so much like us. What made Jonah tick? Why did he run when God told him to go to Ninevah? How does God work in spite of Jonah's weakness and rebellion? Listen to this episode of For You Radio and find out!
  12. What is the object of your faith? Have all really sinned and fallen short of God's glory? What is the gift of eternal life? Join Craig and Troy as they talk about all of these topics and more.
