    Taking God's Name In Vain (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    The Danger Of Being Right (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    In this episode, Mike and James explore Adventism’s historic claim to “have the truth” and how that mindset can make it difficult to learn from those outside the denominational walls. They reflect on biblical and Adventist examples that challenge the assumption that being used by God means having everything correct, before turning to how our need to be right can shape the way we relate to others—and even make Christian evangelism feel more like a sales pitch than a genuine conversation.
