    A Health Update and the Problem of Evil, Pain, and Suffering

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode, Whitney Capps shares her most recent health update, opening the door to a deeper conversation about the Problem of Evil, pain, and suffering and what these realities mean for our faith. Whitney and Evan explore the difficult questions surrounding why a good and loving God allows suffering, how Christians can respond to the reality of evil, and whether suffering is compatible with the existence of God. Through Whitney’s personal experience, we consider the intersection of faith, suffering, doubt, apologetics, and the Christian worldview. This honest and thoughtful conversation offers both theological perspective and encouragement for anyone wrestling with the difficult questions of pain and suffering.

    It's All God's

    Changing the White Noise (w/Dr. Evan Posey)

    Send us Fan Mail Influencers are a dime a dozen. And much of the time, the products or ideas they peddle are not particularly significant. But with the recent death of Charlie Kirk, it's reasonable to presume that most Americans have given thought to what it means to stand up for an idea, regardless of the cost. Dr. Evan Posey joins Whitney Capps and Russ Greer to discuss the role of Christ followers as they live in and speak to an increasingly post-Christian culture.
