Guest, Kathy Garland, shares her journey of faith and resilience through significant life challenges, including divorce, child loss, and a severe car accident. Despite these hardships, Kathy maintains her faith and introduces the concept of “revelationship,” a term that emerged from a moment during a discussion with interns at her father’s church. This term encapsulates the process of deepening one’s relationship with God by recognizing and engaging with His revelations in various aspects of life, from scripture to creation, and even through suffering. Kathy emphasizes that theology is practical and that understanding God’s nature and revelations can profoundly impact one’s faith journey.

My guest, Constance Hastings, the author of ”The Trouble with Jesus: Considerations Before You Walk Away,” stops by to discuss her book, which explores controversial topics in faith and theology.

Constance shares her personal experiences with faith, prayer, and the transformative power of God’s love. We then explore themes like the authenticity of the scriptures, the importance of respectful conversations about faith, and the role of prayer in aligning oneself with God’s will. Along with those topics we also discuss the misconception of God as a divine fixer and the cultural hijacking of the concept of love. Constance emphasizes the necessity of knowing God to truly understand love and the significance of having a relationship with Him.
