Theology Throw Down

by Andrew Rappaport

When we look on social media, we see professing Christians debating theology, but often they are more defensive than loving. Christians of all people should be able to discuss our theological differences with love and charity. We should be able to discuss our differences, knowing that we must represent Jesus Christ well. The podcasters are an example of how to discuss our theological differences. This podcast not only teaches different theological topics but does so display love and charity for one another in our differences. This is a podcast that will teach the listener how to think theologically from different positions but also teach the listener how to be a good ambassador of Jesus Christ.
