I am a new Christian, was born and raised in a Christian cult for decades. Just recently left that cult having so much questions regarding the Bible and how could I trust it as a souce of authority. This podcast has helped me a lot in digesting and discerning issues regarding Christianity, and has been tremendously helpful in reshaping my worldview. God bless you Tom and Justin. Keep up the good work!
