He keeps asking Brian to comment on things and then interrupts the poor chap before can get a word out. I’d have liked to hear a lot more from Brian and quite a lot less from the interviewer. Brian looks frustrated. I certainly was. “I could talk for hours on this .” We’ve noticed. Not a good strategy for an interview though
Three things: 1) Brian didn't really get to say much about his book because you keep interrupting with your I'm-a-fallen-megachurch-pastor stories. It would help your interviews to exclusively focus on your guest. 2) Both of you seem to be stuck in the Complexity of Syncretism. I don't recall ever hearing about saving Faith, saving Grace, the Word, or Sanctification by the Holy Spirit - nope, it was all about 'me', 'my' works, 'my' apologies, how to live 'my' life, 'my' interactions with minorities, how ''my' works make me feel good. Well, if it all comes down to being good and doing works then, yes, Islam, or blue Hindus, or Sikhism are all equally legitimate roads to the same god. 3)... but Christ is the only Way, the only Truth, & the only Life. He cannot tolerate our sin, He cannot abide our 'works', and through His Work has provided the only way out of the consequences of our Sin. Certainly, we must be humble and compassionate toward each other, but uncompromisingly bold about Christ's message and His expectations of His followers.
Ouch! Man I’m so glad papa doesn’t make me feel the way I felt from reading your comments. Last I heard from the Holy Spirit is God’s not counting our sins against us . That man is healing, and his guest was gracious enough to show love and not making his book more important than his life experience. Be kind.
@@sharongood8257 I think "being kind" is a good strategy when you are not sure what to think of something; that is, if there is some doubt in your mind and you just don't feel you can make a good judgement. In light of your comment(s), let me look again at my points: It was obvious that he did interrupt and telling him so will help him be a better interviewer, but I could have stated it more kindly. He and his guest are not following the Bible closely enough implying goodness is the goal. Perhaps this, too, could have been couched in kinder language. Finally, I stand by being compassionate but uncompromising with the Word. Maybe my comments should be worded slightly differently in the future, but without compromising on the truth.
@@theworkman317 thank you, I may have been a little touchy myself, but I just got free from legalism and after 55 years I’m walking in freedom. I grew up thinking the bible was the word of God, and when I finally learned how to read the bible and understand that Jesus is The Word and The Holy Spirit leads me and I participate in my life with God I see people differently. I just know God is better than we think

Do I stay Christian is out now. I’ve read it. It’s good. I no longer identify as Christian. Although I haven’t quite given up on God yet.

Spiritual faith is such a dead end.
