TAOI - “Divine” Inspiration ep 2

Fifteen years after leaving Christianity, Josh reopened the Bible — starting with Genesis — and read it as an adult, without inherited assumptions. What he found wasn’t the timeless, unchanging God he was taught to worship. In this episode, we examine the evolving character of God across scripture — from the embodied, reactive deity of the Book of Genesis, to the wrathful potter of Epistle to the Romans, to the modern evangelical God of “radical love.” Is the biblical God consistent? Is divine love really unconditional? And does it make moral sense for a God to create people for destruction and then punish them? We’ll explore predestination, wrath, sacrifice, obedience, and the psychological need to create meaning in a world where we know we will die — engaging the provocative idea from Nancy Huston that perhaps we are not God’s creation — He is ours. If God’s nature appears to change with culture, what does that say about where our ideas of God come from?
