    Does Prayer Work

    A cornerstone of the Christian faith is prayer….but does it actually work? And if it does, what does it do? We aren’t afraid to get real as we discuss: - Defining “works” or “doing anything” when it comes to prayer - Our doubts we’ve had about prayer - What we believe prayer is and isn’t - The mystery of God - And more! We hope as you listen, you’ll know that your questions, doubts, and beliefs about prayer are welcome. And it’s okay to not have all the answers and to embrace the mystery. We can’t wait for you to listen and join us in the Saintuary!

    Can We Really Love Like Jesus?

    Welcome to Saintuary: a safe place for doubts, discussion, and discovery! In this episode, we are talking about what it means to love like Jesus. Because the unfortunate truth is, today Christians as a whole are not seeing as loving. And that breaks our hearts. In this episode, we touch on: 1. What sometimes the Church and Christ followers can often mistake as loving others …. but is not 2. What the Church does well…but sometimes views it as the whole, not just the part of loving others it is 3. What the Church is sometimes lacking enough of…which is what we believe loving like Jesus really is 4. We also provide 4 song recommendations that can help build your faith and remind you of how we are called to love (after all, faith comes from hearing) No matter where you are in life, we hope you walk away from this episode knowing you are so loved, and being encouraged to love others well. We can’t wait for you to listen and join us in the Saintuary!

    Why Do Bad Things Happen

    Today, we are discussing such a difficult topic to wrestle with: Why Do Bad Things Happen? It’s a question that’s asked a lot—by both believers and nonbelievers—and one where a cliche answer just won’t cut it anymore. We aren’t afraid to get real as we discuss: - A doubt that’s often underneath this big question - Our honest experiences with asking this - A common answer that is simply not enough - What helps encourage us in tough times But at the end of the day, it’s a question and a topic we don’t have the perfect answer for. And that’s okay. We pray as you listen, your heart would be encouraged and you would feel safe to come with whatever you’re dealing with. We can’t wait for you to listen and join us in the Saintuary!
