Episode Description

Send us a Question!

What if becoming like Christ means something far more profound than we've imagined? In this week's episode Malcolm and Slim dive into one of Christianity's most transformative yet often overlooked doctrines.

The ancient Christian understanding of salvation extends beyond forgiveness to actual participation in divine life. "What Christ is by nature, we become by grace." 

Before that, you'll want to hear about the CIA's Operation Acoustic Kitty & why Christians are done turning the other cheek as a Texas Congressional Candidate burns the Quran inviting christians to support her political aims.
