Living with unmet longings often feels like suffering. Rachel Miller knows, from experience, that our longings confront us with an opportunity to struggle toward God and community, rather than away from them. Her latest book is When It Hurts to Hope: Honest Conversations about Living with Unmet Longing. She joins us this week to talk about wrestling with longings and desires, and correcting the bad theology that worsens our suffering.

As Christians, we’re called to love God with all our minds, and be transformed by the renewal of our minds. Without a mind that’s shaped by God’s Word, we’ll struggle to champion the truth, beauty, and goodness of God’s Kingdom in this time and place. To address this problem, Michael Craven, Vice President of Equipping and Mobilization at the Colson Center has written a brand-new, free e-book called The Christian Mind: Its Necessity to Christian Relevance and Renewal. It’s a primer on developing a thoroughly Christian mind for the sake of the Kingdom. If you want a more robust faith that actually shapes how you live in the world today, or if you’re wondering why cultivating a Christian mind really matters, you should read this book. You can grab your free copy by going to colsoncenter.org/book.

Megan Donahue grew up in a Mormon family whose roots reach all the way back to the founding of Mormonism. Though she sincerely believed as a child, she was discouraged from thoroughly investigating what she had been taught. Eventually, Megan’s beliefs unraveled as she grappled with long-held questions and the burden of works-based religion. Through the mess of doubt, she stepped away from everything she had ever known and asked God to show her the truth. She joins us this week to tell her story of leaving Mormonism and learning to trust Christ.

Creation is about more than HOW God created the world. It’s about why. From the beginning, God’s purpose has been to dwell with His image bearers in unbroken fellowship. It’s tempting to think that our sin ruined that plan, and that Jesus was God’s Plan B. But as Edward Klink says, Jesus and the Church were always Plan A. More than that, God is not replacing creation; He’s renewing it, and you and I have been invited to participate in that renewal as God’s agents of redemption. Klink’s latest book, The Beginning and End of All Things, will give you a bigger, more accurate perspective on God’s plan for creation and your place in it.

Doubts and hard questions are a welcome part of the Christian life. But many young Christians today are being encouraged to “deconstruct” their faith. Culture becomes the standard of truth instead of Scripture, and many young believers walk away from faith altogether. To help the Church offer a better way to those who are deconstructing, Alisa Childers and Tim Barnett have written The Deconstruction of Christianity. They define what deconstruction really is, why it’s appealing to so many, and why it’s harmful. They also equip us to love those who are deconstructing by welcoming the hard questions while also upholding truth.

Stories have a profound way of shaping us. They form our attention, affections, and our character, for better or worse. That’s why reading what’s good, true, and beautiful matters—and this takes practice. Jessica Hooten Wilson returns to the podcast to help us embrace the practice of reading as a means of spiritual formation.

When we live according to God’s design by loving Him and others, we experience true life. Listen in and let Pamela's testimony encourage you to cultivate a life of commitment to the Lord.

Christians have the privilege of participating with God as He makes all things new. But many believers have unwittingly settled for a small worldview and a privatized faith that has little effect on the culture around them. That’s why the Colson Center is committed to helping Christians develop a Christian worldview that shapes all of life—not just Sunday mornings. The primary way we do this is through the Colson Fellows program. This week, I’m joined by my dear colleague, Michael Craven, Dean of the Colson Fellows. Tune in to hear his story and get a vision for the necessity, beauty, and transforming power of embracing a comprehensive Christian worldview.
