Really enjoyed this first episode of Faith Informed - thanks, Sam. Mary Jo Sharp's testimony of coming to Christ and immediately experiencing judgmentalism in the church - and of Christians' own behavior sending her into doubt about the faith - is unfortunately more common than we'd like to admit. This for me was a call to examine how I treat others - Christians and non-Christians, inside the church and out - and to be careful about judging those dealing with doubt or questions. Appreciated her admonition against a reductionist view of salvation, and specifically her repeated statement that we're rational but not omniscient, so we will all at some point have some doubts and questions.
Sam, thank you for putting this podcast together. I enjoyed this episode and look forward to Part 2. Please keep up the good fight.
