0:00.0 | Welcome to the Conversations that Matter Podcast. My name is John Harris. Today we have a guest with us, a very brave guest, I might add. |
0:08.6 | Ilgen and Ilgen is a student at Trinity Evangelical Seminary and that's in Chicago, right? |
0:16.7 | Did he a Carson work there? |
0:18.4 | He used to, he retired recently. |
0:20.5 | Yeah. |
0:21.5 | So some big names at the very least and so tell me about yourself what what made you want to go to seminary |
0:29.2 | you know tell me a little bit about your Christian testimony So I grew up in a non-Christian home, |
0:36.1 | and but my parents were that classic liberal |
0:39.7 | where they were open to new ideas. |
0:46.9 | So we would visit different places of worship like Buddhist temple or I've even been to a Catholic mass. So we were open, but we didn't believe in a specific religion. |
1:00.5 | When I was in eighth grade I had an existential crisis because I realize what's what's the point of working hard or or studying a lot if I'm going to just die anyway I'll go to a good |

1:48.3 | dinner with a perfect stranger and it's a fiction of an atheist guy having dinner with Jesus. |
1:55.0 | So I picked it up, it was a short book and I started reading it. |
2:01.0 | And what really struck me was when Jesus said there's nothing you can do to |
2:06.1 | get to heaven and that was that was such a shocking statement because I've always thought that Christians believe that you go to heaven by doing good works. |
2:17.0 | Then why do you go to church? Why give money to the poor? |
2:21.0 | But Jesus continued to share that our standard of goodness just |
2:28.0 | fails compared to God's standard of goodness and no one meets God's standard of goodness except God. And because of our sin, God himself had to pay for that because he loves us, that he sent his son to die for our sin on the cross, and that on the third day he's risen. |
2:52.0 | And if you believe in him you can have relationship with God. |
