Gospel Chats

More than ever, traditional Christians are asking members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints whether they believe Jesus is God. In this episode we give the scriptural answer to that question and discuss how important it is that we both believe and understand the answer. 

In this chat we wrestle with two complimentary truths; 1. God wants us to experience divine discontent AND 2. God wants us to experience a perfect brightness of hope. How do we hold these two truths together, what happens when we only focus on one, and what does it feel like live in the middle of both? 

Sometimes we get this picture in our heads that God lives in a constant state of happiness and doesn’t experience any pain, grief, or sadness. In this episode we explore what we know doctrinally about God’s range of emotions and what it can teach us about Him and ourselves. 

In this episode we address questions like: Why do some scriptures classify coveting as a sin, while others urge us to covet? What does coveting look like in our lives? How does obeying the tenth commandment keep us safe from hurting ourselves? 

The eighth and ninth commandments seem to be linked together by the principle of honesty. In this episode we chat about the slippery, satanic slope of selfish dishonesty, and the higher, holier journey to loving truth the way God loves it.
