21st Talks

Phil Laguerre & Vince Bujor•podcasters.spotify.com

We all have questions about life. Especially as Christians in the 21st century, we are facing tremendous challenges and temptations, and although we have God's word as a guide, some seem to remain unanswered. What's the purpose of my life? How do I find my true calling? Where is God, in a world full of suffering? Where do I draw the line between being nice and a pushover? At 21st Talks, we address the "tough" questions of the Christian walk and talk about practical solutions. We cut through the non-sense and give you straight, biblical answers. Are you ready to hear them?

Why Disappointments?

Disappointments are part of life. Beyond personal disappointments that we might experience, there are a number of big disappointments in history. The probably greatest one in a Christian context happened in October 1844. Why does God allow His faithful believers to spread a "lie", why does He let us walk "in darkness" if He could show us the "right" solution immediately? Can it be that God wants His children to find certain things on their own? And if so, why does He use disappointments to make ...

Why Is There Pain & Suffering?

The Bible tells us in 1 John 4:16 that God is love. But looking around us, we see colossal amounts of pain and suffering. Why is that? Did God change His mind and suddenly become evil? Is He a distant God who created everything and then leaned back to watch us do whatever we want? Who is responsible for the misery in this world? What are the causes? And how can we make a difference? Episode 02: "Why Is There Pain & Suffering?" Hosts: Phil & Vince © 2019 - 21st Talks. All Rights Reserved....

The Meek Christian - Where Do I Draw the Line?

As Christians, we should be nice and meek people. Jesus calls us in Matthew 5:39 to "hold the other cheek". But how does that practically look like? Are we now doormats for everyone, do we have to swallow what people are throwing at us? How do you define true meekness in a biblical sense? And what does our personality type have to do with all this? Episode 01: "The Meek Christian - Where Do I Draw the Line?" Hosts: Phil & Vince © 2019 - 21st Talks. All Rights Reserved....
