Summary
In this blast from the past, J. Warner examines the unique nature of the Christian worldview. What is the nature of "true faith"? Is it wrong to want evidence to support the claims of Christianity? Is my faith "weak" because it demands rationality and evidential support? In this podcast, Jim examines the Biblical model of faith. It may surprise you to hear what the Bible has to say about "faith". Also, Jim takes some time to respond evidentially to a common objection of atheists (the idea that the Christian God supports slavery).

| 1:18.1 | website under the section entitled Doctrine and it was initially a study of the Apostles Creed. |
| 1:24.5 | And we've been just kind of inching along on that series, really since May, and we're almost |
| 1:30.0 | done with Summer. |
| 1:31.0 | Do you believe it? |

| 1:43.8 | what it is that I think shapes our lives as Christians and what the |
| 1:49.6 | scriptures actually call us to be and how they call us to live as Christians and so much of |
| 1:54.8 | it has parallels for me at least in the life that I live as a detective and I wanted |
| 2:00.8 | to share with you over the next couple of weeks, something that I call responsive Christianity. |
