Why do you think the broader Christian community has so casually embraced the Enneagram?  12:49 What does your personal quiet time/Bible study look like? How long, what plan, what time of day, your approach, how often, etc.?  19:06 Does 1 Corinthians 1 talking about divisions among the people apply to the concept of denominations? Is it biblical to have these splits within the church?  22:02 Do you have a theology on the dinosaurs creation and extinction? It's enough to make me doubt at times. Is there anything like that that makes you doubt?  27:32 If the new earth is a “return to Eden,” is a “second fall” possible? If not, what about free will? Can free will exist without sin?  32:58 Is the ESV is unfairly biased towards Women in Leadership? Beth Allison Bar’s book presented a case that the ESV is just RSV that doubles on gender language.  45:02 Does the Bible claim to be divinely inspired? Did Jesus say that? Why do Christians often equivocate “God’s Word” (in the biblical text) with the Bible itself?  48:05 How would you define “witchcraft”? It seems like it’s applied to things people just don’t like. What is and is not witchcraft (as mentioned in the Bible)?  50:56 I loved your recent podcast with Ernesto Duke. So where do you land ... Should Christians save for retirement? Is retirement even biblical?  58:46 Does 1 Cor 5 seems to encourage you not to eat with Brothers in Christ who live in sin. How do you Apply this to affirming Christians who are in a Gay marriage?  1:02:37 Recommended ways/books to talk with children about sex/sexuality to get in front of things they will be exposed to in their life?  1:04:34 What’s your take on the Andy Stanley kerfuffle?  108:53 How does a church that is non-affirming accept and love gay Christians even if they are actively involved in a same-sex relationship?
