In this episode Judy dialogues with her 18-year-old grandson Gavin, about his internal desire to convince others to believe in God. As so often happens when something significant changes our lives, he becomes genuinely passionate for others to embrace his faith. Like many of us, that passion had blinded him to the subtle arrogance of needing to convince his unbelieving friends that they are wrong.
You will be touched by his humility and genuine desire to change the way he sees and relates with friends who identify as atheists. You will sense the beauty of what he believes rising up in him, freeing him to be confident without a hint of ignorance… like Jesus was. If you listen as an atheist you will get a better sense of how hard it is for us believers to manage our very real passion. If you are a believer, you may find yourself rethinking how you relate with those who don’t share your faith. Better understanding in one arena opens the door for a kind of humility that is needed in every area of life where beliefs can divide us.
