Q & A Session: Answering Questions from an Unbeliever

In this episode, we field questions from our panel unbeliever, Cheryl Carreau, who has been exploring the landscape of Christianity against the backdrop of skepticism. As a result of her recent studies, she has come away with many thought provoking questions of her own. We thought it would be a great opportunity to record this Q & A session live as some of you may grapple with the same questions Cheryl does. We hope both believers and unbelievers alike come away with a greater understanding of the faith and scripture.

Do You Have Unrealistic Expectations?

In this episode, we explore how having unrealistic expectations of ourselves, others, God, technology, and so on can lead to feelings of disappointment, anger, and rejection. We discuss how to identify our own unrealistic expectations and the importance of moving beyond the “shoulds”, “always”, and “nevers” that we tend to cling to in our minds and beliefs. When we expect others to “read our minds” or “to just know”, it sets us and others up for failure and reminds us that when we clearly and kindly communicate our needs to others, we can set our relationships up for success. We also identify the dangers of black-n-white thinking patterns and how learning to honor our own values and needs without guilt is a much healthier approach.

Identity: How Would You Answer the Question, “Who Am I?”

In this episode, we explore the topic of identity and attempt to answer the question, “Who am I?” This seems to be a question many find challenging to answer. Knowing one’s identity is an area of much confusion today. We hope that if you are not clear about your own identity, after listening to this episode it might become clearer. Our identity (who we think we are) is the driving force behind our thoughts, words, and actions and determines why we do what we do. During our discussion, we work through four steps that can help you recognize and rebuild your identity.
