On Mercy and Salvation
Can God be both just and merciful? What's salvation, and do we need it? Why do some Christians insist that we accept Jesus Christ as our "personal lord and savior"? In this episode, we highlight the pressure within some churches to bring in more "souls" and for members to undergo immediate personal transformation.

Was Jesus really God? [Part 1]
In the first part of our Trinity series, we delve into profound questions at the core of Christianity. The concept of "One God, Three Persons" proposed by the Trinity, compels us to explore the intriguing nature of Jesus Christ. Was he the Son of God or God himself? Can we truly comprehend the vastness of God?
