Ep 276: Dialogue | Street Knowledge | Ansley & Hunter | Christianity
01/09/2018 Duration: 09minRecorded: 16 August 2018 Published: 1 September 2018 Released: 1 September 2018 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/AZTG_CdIbEQ Ansley and Hunter are Christians who believe in God because of the purpose and meaning it gives to their lives. There is a deep sense in which they just “feel” Christianity is true. In this interview we unpack that a little bit. What about the Muslim who says he just “feels” Islam is true? How do we compare competing claims that something is true due to feelings? CHANNEL UPDATE: This video will be the last one I post, at least for a while. I need to step back from YouTube to devote more time and energy to family and career. Thank you so much for your support!

She was very open and honest. Sorry for the poor lighting. I also had the camera facing my board the first portion of the interview. She seemed to take an interest in it. I think IL's could benefit from looking at the thought process we covered. It also helps the vibe that we are examining this belief together. In the future I'll try to take opportunities to show my scribbling's to the IL when I repeat what their saying or doing a summary. Music provided by Chet Hovatter.

Kim thinks that she converses with her God, so we chat about that while her friend sits in the shade to wait and listen. The conversation is rather standard, but later, as the two return to begin their hike, something wonderful happens. Related: Music provided by Chet Hovatter.
