    Racial Solidarity & Lowertown - INTRODUCTION

    Racial Solidarity & Lowertown - INTRODUCTION
    This week kicks off our series on Racial Solidarity and Lowertown. Brian is joined by HCC-Lowertown elders Joshua Daramola and Paul Stiver to properly contextualize issues on race, using their own experiences, history, and the Bible to move toward racial solidarity. This is the first of multiple conversations to take place, providing a framework for what racial solidarity is, why it is so essential to understand, and how we can grow in our understanding of it through Awareness, Relationships, and Commitment (ARC concept via Jemar Tisby's book "The Color of Compromise").

    God's Will

    God's Will
    This week Brian looks at God's Will. What is the difference between God's providential will and His moral (or revealed) will? What types of imagery can we use to conceptualize these wills? How do we determine if something is part of God's will for our lives? Brian is then joined once again by HCC - Lowertown worship leader Andrew Blaufuss to question if there is only one will for our lives and determine if using the phrase, "It is God's will that we..." has any merit in telling people why they should do something (29:34).

    Creation (Part 2)

    Creation (Part 2)
    This week Brian continues looking at Creation. What can we learn from Genesis 1 and 2 about the origin of life? How does the ancient text of the Bible align with modern science? Are faith and science mutually exclusive? Brian is then joined by HCC - Lowertown attendee Matt O'Connell to touch on historical views of creation in the church, examine if there are other areas in the Bible that help us understand creation better, and question if we should read Scripture's account of creation literally (27:35).

    Creation (Part 1)

    Creation (Part 1)
    This week Brian looks at Creation. How did God create the world? What are the different theories on creation and what is their relation to evolution? What are macroevolution and microevolution, and what role do they play in the different theories, if any? Brian is then joined by HCC - Lowertown attendees Ben and Emily Jones to discuss their views on creation and how it is approached in our various present day contexts (30:04). ***Additional resources referenced in this podcast*** Book --- "The Scientific Approach to Evolution: What They Didn't Teach You in Biology" by Rob Stadler

    The Trinity

    The Trinity
    This week Brian looks at the Trinity. How can God be three persons, and yet, one? What are different ways we can try to conceptualize the Trinity from Scripture? What analogies do we often use that fall short of describing the Trinity? Brian is then joined by HCC - Lowertown attendees Jon and Alyssa Oliversen to discuss how important this doctrine actually is in our day-to-day lives (29:11). ***Additional resources referenced in this podcast*** 1.

    Attributes of God

    Attributes of God
    This week Brian looks at the Attributes of God. What are God’s attributes? Which attributes are specific to God (incommunicable) and which ones do we share with Him (communicable)? In what ways can these names expand our understanding of the awesomeness of God? Brian is then joined by HCC - Lowertown attendee Zach Abrams to grapple with these attributes; clarifying what they mean, which ones they resonate with most, and how we, as finite humans, often have trouble expressing God’s communicable attributes well (31:34).

    A History of Fundamentalism

    A History of Fundamentalism
    This week Brian looks at A History of Fundamentalism. What is fundamentalism? How was it established and how has it changed throughout history? How does knowledge of this history allow us to have meaningful conversations with those that might have been hurt by the fundamentalist church? Through his experience of growing up in the Independent Fundamental Baptist (IFB) church, Brian sheds light on what it means to ultimately start conversations with the Gospel, not an overly conservative set of rules that determine your worthiness as a Christian (37:06).

    Existence of God

    Existence of God
    This week Brian looks at the Existence of God. How can we believe in the existence of the God of the Bible? How can we use apologetics to defend the existence of God? How do people view the world, and their own existence, based on their belief (or lack thereof) in God? Following this exploration, Brian is joined by HCC - Lowertown attendees Amy Overgaard and Chaz Fenske to explore how this doctrine presents itself in various spiritual conversations we encounter on a daily basis (25:06).

    Scripture

    Scripture
    This week Brian looks at Scripture. How does God communicate with humanity through it? How did we get the Bible? Is it without error? What does it look like to use it as our highest authority and standard of truth? After addressing these questions, Brian is joined by HCC - Lowertown attendees Matt Almquist (The TPM Podcast) and Nolan Bauer to discuss why this doctrine is so essential to the lives Christians live (33:36).
