J.P. Moreland on Suffering, Doubt, and Facing Death Without Fear

J.P. Moreland is one of the most influential Christian philosophers alive and he's spent the last twelve years enduring what most of us never will: a rare genetic condition, more than two dozen cancer surgeries, and two seasons of debilitating anxiety and depression. In this deeply personal conversation, he sits down with me to talk about pain, doubt, and why he says he now has no fear of death.

Don't Put All Your Happiness in One Basket | Happiness Hour

This episode of the Happiness Hour explores the idea that relying too heavily on one source of happiness can lead to disappointment and unhappiness. Dennis uses examples from his own life and the lives of others to illustrate this point, including a story about a woman who put all her happiness eggs in the marital basket, only to find herself devastated when her husband's love for her waned. He also shares a powerful call from a man who spent 40 years trying to make his wife happy, only to realize that he couldn't, and that true happiness comes from within.

The Most Compelling Heaven Testimonies Ever Collected? | Skeptic Investigates 140 NDEs

Randy Kay was a biotech CEO and a self-described skeptic who didn't believe in near-death experiences until he flatlined for 30 minutes in 2005 and, in his telling, found himself face to face with Jesus.

493 How My Bipolar Diagnosis Brought Me Closer to God with Sarah Fox

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!What do you do when a sudden mental health crisis makes you question everything you know about a loving God? This week, Sarah Fox, mental health advocate and host of the Rough Edges podcast, joins Jaime for an eye-opening and deeply transparent conversation about the realities of navigating bipolar disorder as a believer. In this episode, Sarah shares the unique, often isolating, and complex challenges that Christians face when dealing with a mental health diagnosis. She opens up about the heartbreaking reality of experiencing a manic crisis, the fear of judgment from within the walls of the church, and the profound struggle of wrestling with anger and confusion toward God after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Sarah also unpacks incredible insights on resilience that prove God can handle our heaviest doubts and darkest moments. From finding unexpected intimacy with the Lord in the depths of depression to untangling spiritual sensationalism from clinical mania, this conversation highlights the unbreakable faithfulness of God. She also introduces powerful, practical ways for the church community to show up and intercede for those who are struggling—without over-spiritualizing the pain or offering simple platitudes. You'll walk away inspired by Sarah's courageous faith, reminded that God's strength shines brightest in our weakest moments, and equipped with practical ways to support loved ones facing mental health battles.

My Mom, Billie Jean & Michael Jackson’s Stalker | The Untold Story

The Michael Jackson hit is one of the most recognizable songs in pop history. What most people don't know is that the woman behind the song was a real person with a real family. La Nej is a chaplain, an apologetics teacher, a Biola grad, and someone I've known since the mid-90s. She's also the daughter of the woman the world remembers as Billy Jean. In this conversation La Nej walks through her childhood: being told Michael Jackson was her father, camping outside his Encino gate at age seven, getting abandoned in a taxi the next morning, the years in and out of foster care, the abuse, and the aunt who adopted her at twelve. *Get a MASTERS IN APOLOGETICS or SCIENCE AND RELIGION at BIOLA (https://bit.ly/3LdNqKf) *USE Discount Code [smdcertdisc] for 25% off the BIOLA APOLOGETICS CERTIFICATE program (https://bit.ly/3AzfPFM) *See our fully online UNDERGRAD DEGREE in Bible, Theology, and Apologetics: (https://bit.ly/448STKK) FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: https://x.com/Sean_McDowell TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sean_mcdowell?lang=en I nstagram: https://www.instagram.com/seanmcdowell/ Website: https://seanmcdowell.org Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
