On this weeks episode of Across All Worlds, Jason and David welcome special guest and long term friend Paul Golf for an honest and engaging conversation about faith that moves beyond intellectual ideas. They explore the balance of logic and love, the power of relational theology, and stories of encountering the Spirit in unexpected, life-changing ways.

Stay tuned for Part 2 airing next week, where the conversation continues with Paul’s journey, practical experiences of the gospel, and deeper insights into how our union with Christ plays out in our every day lives.

This conversation, co-hosted by Paul Golf, explores Douglas Campbell and Jon DePue’s book, Beyond Justification: Liberating Paul’s Gospel. The guys discuss the practical implications of their theological perspective and its impact on the church and society. The relational nature of God’s revelation and the transformative power of understanding God’s kindness and reconciliation are central themes.

This conversation delves into the concept of Christian Universalism, the impact of theological beliefs on individuals, and the importance of rethinking traditional perspectives. The conversation also touches on the significance of understanding God’s love and the practical implications of our beliefs in everyday life.

Dr. Jerome D. Lubbe, a neuroplasticity expert, discusses his journey and the intersection of faith and science. He shares his experience growing up in South Africa and immigrating to the United States, as well as his personal health struggles.

Dr. Lubbe explains the Enneagram as a tool for understanding motivations and behaviors, emphasizing the importance of exploring all aspects of our personality. He also introduces the concept of neuroplasticity, which is the brain’s ability to change and adapt. Brooke Waters co-hosts along with Jason as they challenge the idea that we cannot change and highlight the potential for growth and transformation. Dr. Lubbe emphasizes the importance of framing conversations through the lens of a safe and healthy parent or adult. He also explores the idea that change is not about being less broken, but about becoming more whole.

Foundational Christian beliefs can be greatly misunderstood, and grace is no exception.  This video looks at why we complicate the things of God, our misunderstanding of grace, and the reality of what God’s grace is, His defining and empowering of our lives.
