  • Is Eternal Punishment Compatible With a Loving God?
    May 20 2026

    Hell is one of the most debated—and often misunderstood—doctrines in Christianity. For many skeptics, it feels like the clearest evidence against Christianity. For others, it’s an essential, non-negotiable part of the gospel. So how should we really understand it?

    In this episode, Dr. Paul Copan joins Sam Raju to take a careful, biblical look at what Scripture teaches and to address some of the strongest moral and intellectual objections. Is eternal punishment compatible with a just and loving God? How should Christians respond to the charge that infinite punishment for finite sins is unjust?

    This conversation aims to move beyond caricatures and think clearly, honestly, and biblically about one of Christianity’s most challenging teachings.

    In this episode Sam Raju speaks from Psalm 88 in a message titled “When God Seems Silent.” What do we do when our prayers go unanswered, when God seems absent, and hope is hard to hold onto? How do we navigate seasons of life where it seems that God is distant and our desperate cries for help are met with deafening silence?

  • The Pursuit of Happiness: A Christian Perspective
    Apr 15 2025

    On today’s podcast, we’re exploring a topic that is often overlooked in Christian circles yet deeply woven into the human experience—the pursuit of happiness. For some, the very idea raises red flags. The pursuit of happiness? Isn’t that something to avoid—perhaps even condemn? Many view it as a slippery slope toward moral compromise, a distraction from holiness that leads away from the cross and toward fleeting, worldly pleasures.

    After all, isn’t the Christian life about duty, sacrifice, and obedience? Doesn’t Scripture call us to self-denial, suffering, and surrender rather than personal fulfillment? But is that the full picture? Have we misunderstood what true happiness is? Does Christianity really demand that we renounce happiness, or is there a deeper, more biblical vision—one that doesn’t pit holiness against joy, but rather sees them as inseparably linked?

    In today’s episode, we’ll challenge common assumptions, explore what Scripture actually says, and ask whether the pursuit of happiness has a rightful place in the Christian life. Join us as we take a fresh and thoughtful look at “The Pursuit of Happiness: A Christian Perspective.”
