What is Unplugged Faith // S02E01 Faith is described in scripture as “the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1) We are generally a people that likes to see it to believe it. As such, our faith can be tested and tried by a multitude of areas in our life, including the ridiculing of our faith by the world we live in. In this episode we cover several ways we as Christians may become “unplugged” from our faith. When we say “unplugged”, we are referring to a situation in ones life, where they have become less confident or less involved in their faith.
Our hope is that throughout season 2 we can offer insight and encouragement for those that may have unplugged, but want to get back what they feel they have lost. Our prayer is that our listeners will draw close to the One who offers hope and salvation, our Lord and savior Jesus Christ.
Below are the topics that are covered in this episode. If your faith needs to be revitalized, these topics may help guide you as to why you unplugged from your faith in the first place:
Religion — do we have the right idea when we think about Christianity?
Relationship — our relationship with Jesus is most important.
Rules — some may view our faith as a religion with a rule book which may deter them truly knowing Christ
Reserving time — we need to make sure to take time for our faith and not spread ourselves thin
Reading scripture — but misinterpreting the text, can lead to misunderstandings about our faith
Relevance — is our faith relevant in today’s culture
Reminder -- of God's goodness. We worship the creator of all things!
Redefining — our practicing in faith, namely gathering for worship. Non-traditional Christianity.
Reclaiming our youth — a very low percentage of our youth have a biblical world view.
