Let's face it. Even as Christians and followers of Jesus, we don't always get along. There can be different viewpoints within the Christian faith, and it can sometimes create confusion and division. Does all theology have the same level of importance? Steve and Rich get into that today on our 10th episode of Resident Strangers. We can do our very best to study and figure out the right answer but there are certain things we won't have answers to until we meet God face-to-face one day. Though there are many areas within theology that can have different viewpoints or beliefs, Steve and Rich identify five key points that cannot be comprised or argued against. They talk us through how to be confident those things are true and how to sift through the areas that might bring questions and division. Ultimately, Steve, Rich and Sarah urge everyone to have these discussions with kindness and grace. Love and kindness will speak louder than facts being presented. We hope this episode is a practical encouragement to you today!
*One quick note we wanted to make - when Steve was sharing his story about EE at the top of the episode he meant to say, “Moravian church” but instead said “Mormon church.” He would not teach in a Mormon church since they do not hold to the 5 fundamentals of historic Christian faith (as discussed in the episode). The teaching was done in a Moravian church. Thanks for listening and for understanding!
