Common misconceptions about faith and theology with Jen Wilkin

Pardon the Mess with Courtney DeFeo

I am still thinking about this episode and this thought-provoking conversation with Jen Wilkin. I wish I could bribe every single one of you (and your spouse and small group) to listen to this episode. Jen is a self-taught theologian that speaks about the Bible and Christianity in a way that we can all understand.

I believe you will be motivated to dive into your Bible and engage in more conversations about it. She challenges us to go beyond the one-way conversation that is Sunday morning and sermons. I learned so much from her breakdown of common misconceptions about faith and theology.

My favorite part is towards the end during our discussion on parenting and faith. Her answers gave me some freedom and a sigh of relief. She also gave some very practical ways we can start the conversation of faith and Jesus with our little ones.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What is theology and Bible literacy and why is it important
• What is the benefit of learning the Bible for ourselves
• Why community and conversations propel us faster and further
• Why it’s crucial to model faith conversations for our kids
