My name is Jordan and I love exploring analytic Christian philosophy and theology. I interview professional philosophers, theologians, and biblical scholars on their published work. Watching/listening to this podcast will expose you to a wide range of topics, and challenge you to think more deeply about what you believe and why you believe it, whether you are a Christian or not.
