    Echoes of Truth Series - God In The Dock by C.S. Lewis

    In todays episode we start a new series! Prolific Christian writers have been able to take the deepest feelings we all wish to express, and put words to them. I suppose that's what got them published in the first place, is the ability to say what most people thought. In this series we want to take time to dive into these works so that we may discern the eternal truths they express that are already found in God's Holy Word. We hope you enjoy these episodes as much as we have enjoyed having the discussions! In this first episode Jared Wells of the Brother Cousins Podcast and I tackle C.S. Lewis's "God In The Dock" essay. In this essay, Lewis addresses the idea of placing God "in the dock," which is a legal term for putting someone on trial. He metaphorically explores how modern society tends to subject God and His moral laws to human judgment and scrutiny, rather than accepting a higher, unchanging moral authority. Lewis begins by discussing the shift in modern thinking where people have become the ultimate arbiters of truth and morality, often relegating God's commands to matters of personal opinion or cultural relativism. He argues that this stance reflects a dangerous arrogance where humans place themselves above God and attempt to judge divine principles based on their limited understanding. Lewis goes on to highlight the consequences of this mindset, noting that when society decides which moral principles to accept or reject based on individual preferences, it can lead to moral chaos and the loss of objective standards. He emphasizes that true moral progress is not about moving away from traditional values, but rather about understanding and adhering to the fundamental moral truths that have been revealed by God. Throughout the essay, Lewis emphasizes the need for humility in recognizing the limitations of human knowledge and the importance of accepting a higher moral order that transcends individual desires. He asserts that placing God "in the dock" is a mistake that distorts our understanding of morality and undermines the basis for meaningful ethical discussions. In "God in the Dock," C.S. Lewis critiques the modern tendency to subject divine truths to human judgment and highlights the necessity of acknowledging a higher moral authority. He encourages readers to approach moral and ethical discussions with a sense of humility, recognizing the wisdom inherent in timeless truths rather than simply following fleeting cultural trends.

    A Discussion of Romans 1-3 (feat. Jared Wells-BroCo)

    Its a discussion of Romans chapters 1-3. Not much more to say than that! Although the goal is simple: to discuss the first 3 chapters of Romans, the concepts are far from simple. Romans is a deep and thought provoking book, but it is practical in its application and its wisdom is not just for the high minded and self professed intellectuals. We hope you enjoy this discussion of Romans and will join us for the remainder of our talks in the book with the months to come!

    Galatians: A conversation with Jordan Danser and Jason Wesbrooks

    In todays episode, Jordan Danser, Jason Wesbrooks and I will dive into the book of Galatians. Often called Romans-Lite, or Romans for Dummies (I speak as a man), Galatians is filled with rich theological nuggets as well as a mountain of practical application for Christians in the 21st Century. We hope you'll enjoy these two perspectives brought together to discuss the timeless principles we find in this wonderful epistle by the Apostle Paul.

    The Inconvenience of Heaven....and other stuff.

    All too often we allow ourselves to get bogged down in the pleasures and preoccupations of day to day life. And if we aren't careful, life's pleasures can cause us to give Heaven pause.  Mitch Price, Cain Marshall, Sawyer Pinkerton and myself toss the proverbial conversation ball back and forth as we dive into our own struggles concerning our desire to stay here just a little bit longer, as apposed to meeting the Lord in Glory. We hope you'll enjoy this discussion as much as we have!

    The Importance of Biblical Conversations

    For the pilot episode of the show, Brian Mooney, Jared Wells, and I will discuss the importance of Biblical conversations as it pertains to developing deeper relationships among Christians. We are all aware of the superficial relationships that we have with acquaintances, co-workers, etc. But when our relationships in the body of Christ are limited to the superficial, our spirits are left un-fulfilled. I believe we all have a deeper desire for, you guessed it, deeper relationships. We will explore how meaningful conversations help us build those deeper relationships and how we can go about achieving those types of conversations through methods we have all discovered. None of us claim to be expert conversationalists, however, we are fervent in our desire for better relationships and, well, we enjoy talking! We hope the show is an encouragement to you, and that it glorifies our Father in Heaven!
