Hello, listeners. Welcome to Day Thoughts! I'm your host, Bella Shaw.
Day Thoughts is a podcast where we dive into the deep end of faith, tackling challenging topics, Biblical questions, and the cross between belief and real-life faith. From Christianity and apologetics to spiritual truths and Holy Spirit-led conversations, we're not here to play it safe. We're here to seek, wrestle, and discover. If you're looking for bold, unfiltered conversations about God and how this all applies to you, you're in the right place. So, grab your snacks and your notepads, and let's DIVE IN!
What's your relationship with mud? Just kidding, but not really. I guess the better question would be, what's your trajectory? Today, we'll address the question about sinning vs salvation. How much do works determine genuine salvation? Better yet, how much can you sin and still be saved?

God's Sovereignty vs Our Free Will Ep. 4
Why did God harden Pharaoh's heart? Isn't that compromising his free will? Why does it seem like God overlooks sin in His righteous children? Can we lose our salvation? I know, it's a lot to tackle. But that's why we're here after all.

What about People the Gospel Doesn't Reach?
We always talk about how faith in Christ alone is what saves us, but what about people who don't know the story of Christ and cannot be reached globally? Also, how did people in the Bible like Abraham get saved by Jesus if He wasn't even crucified yet before Abraham died? Let's chat.

A Loving God and the Problem of Hell. Ep. 2
We're back! Let's tackle this: How is it that a lifelong criminal who turns to Jesus on their deathbed is promised Heaven, while a lifelong philanthropist who has spent their life doing good but simply is not a Christian is not? Isn't that incredibly unfair? And if God knows we are imperfect, why does He make the standard perfection? Maybe the better question is...does God really make perfection impossible?
