S2E4: Christianity Precedes the Bible (Guest: John Boyd)

00:00 / 00:45:16

HOSTS: Emily Trotter and John Fugh, Jr.
GUEST: John Boyd

For more than 200 years after the resurrection of Jesus, the Church grew exponentially. This was before the Bible, as we know it today, was canonized. The explanation many have given for this growth was the empty tomb. We’re not Christian because we have a Bible any more that we are alive because we have a birth certificate.

We would love to hear from you. Reach out to us a [email protected].

S2E3: The Good, The Bad, and God’s Grace

Mama and the Rev (SPUMCColumbus)

S2E3: The Good, The Bad, and God's Grace

00:00 / 00:43:21

Hosts: Emily Trotter and John Fugh, Jr.

In This Episode: In his book “Free to Live,” John Eldredge wrote, “We cannot begin to truly face our lives in the light of God’s goodness until we know we are under His grace … that all is forgiven.” The implications of this are overwhelming. We are not born with a limited amount of God’s grace. Just when we think we’ve exhausted it, we’re amazed that God has more to give!

S2E2 – Yes … And …

Mama and the Rev (SPUMCColumbus)

S2E2 - Yes ... And ...

00:00 / 00:43:58

HOSTS: Emily Trotter and John Fugh, Jr.

How people see God now is usually with an introspective look into the ways God has moved in their lives in the past. Hearing and recognizing God is paying attention. God wants to be next to us and to be involved in our lives. What difference does this make in your life today?

We would love to hear from you. Feel free to email us at [email protected].

Mama and the Rev (SPUMCColumbus)

S2E1: Anger versus Compassion

00:00 / 00:40:40

“So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31).

Episode 28: Step Out and Feel the Wind

00:00 / 00:34:46

Hosts: Emily Trotter and John Fugh, Jr.

The more that you open yourself up to the Spirit of God, the more you look for it … and … the more you want it. Keep your feet firmly planted on the ground and your minds firmly planted in God’s Word.

We love hearing from you. Feel free to reach out to us by emailing us at [email protected].

Have a great summer! We’ll be back in September.
