  • What is the Gift of Faith?
    Aug 31 2025

    In this episode, let's talk about the idea in the new testament that the Apostle, Paul, puts forth as "the gift of faith." In episodes past, I have commented that rather than the gift of faith, I have the gift of skepticism and it has sparked many comments and conversations. Was I wrong? Do I not have the gift of faith? What does that even mean? Isn't everyone's faith a gift? Let's discuss!

  • Why Is Bread So Important in the Bible? - With Sarah Gelvin and Keira Jisa from Unsifted
    Jun 13 2025

    It is my joy and privilege to welcome Sarah Gelvin and Keira Jisa to the Christian Skeptic podcast. Both Sarah and Keira have struggled for most of their lives when it comes to gluten, bread, and food-health issues. Their greatest struggle may have been reconciling their past inability to consume bread with the Bible's constant references to bread and even Jesus calling Himself the "bread of life" in John 6:35. From this struggle, they started a company out of their kitchens, during the pandemic, called Unsifted. Join us in this conversation as we discuss their story, their struggles, and how they reconcile these hard dietary questions with the truths found in scripture.

    And, check out their company, Unsifted at https://www.unsifted.com/

    Afterwards, connect with them on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/unsifted

    And Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unsifted.kc/
