    Struggling well, biblical inerrancy, overcoming church-hurt, & other doubts.

    What does it look like to struggle well? Is it even worth it? Why is the modern church so scared of doubts and questions? Is a CoViD 19 vaccine the mark of the beast? Can the Bible be full of contradictions and be inerrant? Are we outsourcing are becoming to social media and celebrity pastors?

An instant favorite

This podcast instantly became my favorite. As a member of City Church Tulsa, Pastor Matt’s commitment to struggling well with the intangibles of our faith has been deeply healing to me. His and Cody’s insights on current events through the eyes of the Gospel are so refreshing. Neither are hyper-religious in their language or their “way,” but both have very obviously dedicated their lives to the pursuit of Truth. Love them, love the podcast.
