What happens when the Bible and humanity collide? Not what you’d expect. Living & Effective, a podcast collaboration between Christianity Today and the Christian Standard Bible, journeys through history, current events, theology and the human condition to uncover surprising ways the Bible accomplishes God’s plan in the world. By confronting these issues and more, this podcast series takes listeners on a journey through the Bible's role as living and effective in the world and challenges our assumptions about culture and Scripture.

  2. EPISODE 2

    Chapter 2: Denial

    "Death is something we did not ever talk about growing up. If you did, you were rebuked. I can't speak for every prosperity preacher. I'll just talk to you about the Hinn empire. There is no topic more scary than death. More than sickness, death. In our home, if we brought up death, we were told do not speak about death, lest you invite the spirit of death into our home." - Costi Hinn, author of God, Greed, and the Prosperity Gospel Living and Effective is a collaboration between CT Creative Studio and The Christian Standard Bible.

    Chapter 4: Bargaining

    "There's no distance in prayer. I'm going to send this powerful healing virtue transfer. I believe it's going to be transferred into your life. Here it comes. Touch my hands. Come a little closer and agree with me. Father in heaven, you see everyone who's watching who has pain. That man with prostate cancer, the woman with pain in her feet. My God, let your healing anointing and power throw out over the airwaves right now in their lives." - Televangelist, Peter Popoff Living and Effective is a collaboration between CT Creative Studio and The Christian Standard Bible.

    Chapter 5: Depression

    "That terrible, empty place has the seeds of life in it. Because you can't really have life after a death until it's based on the truth that the death occurred. Otherwise, you're pretending.  The darkest place actually has hope in it. It is a hope not felt, but it is inherent in it." - Diane Langberg, author of Suffering and the Heart of God Living and Effective is a collaboration between CT Creative Studio and The Christian Standard Bible.
