    SHAME, PROPHECY, AND HEARING GOD'S VOICE | Q&A

    Join Solomon and Michelle for an honest and engaging Q&A episode as they dive into your questions about faith, walking with God, hearing His voice, dealing with shame, and navigating prophecies online, unpacking what it means to let discipline rather than emotion drive your relationship with God, why peace is both a feeling and a person found in Jesus, and how the best way to present the gospel is simply to live it out authentically in everyday moments. This episode explores what has challenged them most in their walk with God, including studying theology and confronting truths they thought they knew, how to distinguish between your own voice and God's voice by recognizing His character in Scripture and seeking counsel from trusted believers, why emotions are incredible advisors but horrible behind the wheel when it comes to faith, how security in Christ becomes the foundation that brings lasting peace even when feelings fade, why you're not a bad Christian if you don't feel peace all the time because mental health struggles are real and complex, how staying on fire for God's word is less about passion and more about discipline regardless of how you feel, why you should be cautious and critical of online prophecies especially from strangers who don't know you, how shame keeps us isolated and the remedy is confession and community, and how the gospel flows naturally out of us when we place it at the very core of who we are. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Setup 00:32 What's Really Challenged You With Your Walk With God? 02:20 How Do You Know the Difference Between Your Voice and God's Voice? 04:27 What's a Habit That's Changed Your Life? 05:49 Is Peace Just a Feeling or Something More? 09:39 How Do You Stay on Fire for Reading the Word? 11:15 How Do You Deal With Prophecies You Hear Online? 13:16 What to Do When You Feel Shame Because of Sin? 15:21 How Do You Present the Gospel to Someone? 16:19 Closing Reflections and Goodbye FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/thewayuk/ FOLLOW US ON TIK TOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewayuk/ Want to know more?

    GEN Z VS BISHOP | GRAHAM TOMLIN'S REMARKABLE FAITH JOURNEY

    Join Zach and Zoe for an incredibly powerful and deeply moving conversation with Graham Tomlin, theologian, author, and former Bishop, as he shares his journey from teenage atheism and reading Nietzsche in rebellion against his Christian upbringing, to rediscovering faith through the witness of Christian friends and the peace they embodied, to becoming a scholar who sees theology not as optional intellectual exercise but as spiritual discipline and a form of prayer that helps us love God with our minds. Together, they explore the profound insights of Blaise Pascal, the 17th century mathematician and theologian who invented the computer, probability theory, and the bus system, and who understood that our hearts are stronger than our heads, that we only believe what we want to believe, and that the key to evangelism is making faith attractive by helping people wish it was true before showing them that it is. This episode dives deep into why we don't need all the answers to share our faith effectively, how living as if Christianity is true helps us try on faith like a coat to see if it fits, why the problem of suffering doesn't have a neat answer but Christianity offers hope that evil is temporary and will be overcome, how studying theology matures our faith and expands our vision of how big and beautiful God truly is, why all Christians are theologians because we all speak words about God, and how the journey of knowing God is never finished because even in eternity there will always be more to discover about His love, creativity, and character.
