Meaningful Conversations With Delicious Beverages
This week, Brandon brings a couple examples of celebrities who found their way to Christ after experiences with psychedelic drugs. He and AJ discuss why this pattern seems to be developing and, obviously, why it isn't a recommended path to conversion.
Brandon and AJ go back a couple weeks to their discussion about the nature of Christ to focus on whether Christ has really experienced all that we have. How does our sinfulness and His sinlessness intersect?
In this week's episode, Brandon is inspired by his reading of St. Athanasius to look at one of the questions posed to about the possibility of change in Christ as opposed to the change(fall) of Satan. He and AJ spend some time comparing the three natures of God, angels, and humans to see why this question is important and see how the question affects our own relationships with God.
This week, Brandon follows up with AJ about some of AJ's difficulties with St. Paul and others. How can we acknowledge not being drawn to, or even disagreeing with, certain Saints without dismissing them?
This week, Brandon asks why it is so hard to keep commitments to ourselves than it is to keep the ones we make to others. This definitely applies to prayer, but so many other things as well.
With Brandon out of commission, AJ does a little thinking out loud about how he sometimes struggles to incorporate the teachings of the Saints into his own life.
AJ and Brandon build on last week's discussion about the soul's location by diving a little bit deeper into what the soul is. What do we mean by animating principle?
