Step into the realm of God as we explore one of the most profound and elusive attributes of God – His eternality. Imagine a Being that was, is, and will always be. Difficult to wrap your head around? That's exactly what we're here to discuss!
God's attribute of eternity isn't merely a theological concept or philosophical curiosity; it fundamentally shapes our understanding of the divine and impacts how we view our own existence. If God is truly eternal, then He exists outside of time and isn't constrained by its limitations. But what does this mean for us who exist within time? How does this influence our faith, our spirituality, and our day-to-day living? In this episode, we delve deep into these thought-provoking questions, unpacking the concept of divine eternity and its implications for human beings.
Don't forget to follow us and subscribe to our podcast for more fascinating explorations into the attributes and mysteries of God. We'd also love for you to share this episode with your friends, family, or anyone else who might be interested.

Do you know someone who seems to be walking away from their faith in Jesus? Are you personally walking through some struggles as well?
Charles Allo is the Assemblies of God district Youth Director in Louisiana. He's a great thinker joining the table with us today to discuss the uptrend of deconstruction in the the church. But what exactly is deconstruction?
Deconstruction doesn't necessarily mean "demolition" but it is a "breaking down" of what once was. When it comes to faith, this doesn't have to be a bad thing but the current trend of deconstruction causes some concerns. Listen in on why we think that is.
