In Why Do I Do What I Do? Exploring the Enneagram, Paul invites listeners on a journey of self-discovery through one of the most transformative tools he’s ever encountered: the Enneagram.
Rooted in timeless wisdom like “Know thyself” and “The unexamined life is not worth living,” this season explores how true integrity begins when our inner life and outer life align. Paul shares how the Enneagram moved beyond personality descriptions to reveal the deeper motivations, fears, and longings that shape our choices—and how this self-knowledge can lead to spiritual growth and deeper intimacy with God.
Across three months of episodes, Paul will unpack the Enneagram as a whole, dive into conversations with people from all nine types, and offer reflections on what it means to live authentically before God. Whether you’re new to the Enneagram or have studied it for years, this podcast will help you slow down, reflect deeply, and discover the freedom that comes when you know yourself and surrender fully to the One who knows you best and loves you most.

Understanding Gender Identity: Truth, Grace, and the Church's Role
How should Christians respond when someone's gender identity doesn’t match their biological sex? Is it loving to affirm? Is it faithful to confront? Is there a better, more Jesus-like way?
In this important episode of Uncomfortable Conversations with Christians, Pastor Paul Basden dives into one of today’s most sensitive and controversial topics: the “T” in LGBTQ. From the cultural spotlight on Caitlyn Jenner to the theological implications of gender dysphoria, Paul challenges listeners to approach this issue not with fear or anger—but with both grace and truth.
Join us as we explore:What Scripture says about sex, gender, and our bodies (Genesis 1:27; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20)Why gender dysphoria is real and deeply painful for manyHow Christians can love transgender individuals without compromising biblical convictionsWhy listening, compassion, and time are critical to long-term healing and understanding
What if the church could be a place where transgender individuals are met not with shame, but with friendship, prayer, and patient hope?
Listen now and join the conversation. Let’s move beyond fear—and toward faithfulness.
