Episode 12 - Image-Bearers: Destined To Create with J.C.L. Faltot

Author: Despite Popular Belief June 17, 2019 Duration: 59:10
Published Author and Creator/Host of The Writer's Lens podcast, J.C.L. Faltot, joins us in this week's episode to discuss why creation is so compelled to create. What does being made in the image of God actually mean? We capture a glimpse inside the mind of a writer and his thoughts on Scripture, science fiction, Game of Thrones, artificial intelligence, and more!

In a world saturated with hot takes and shifting cultural narratives, Despite Popular Belief Podcast offers a grounded space for thoughtful, Reformed biblical theology. This isn't about adding another opinion to the noise; it's a deliberate return to Scripture as the ultimate authority. Each episode seeks to build up and edify those within the Christian faith, providing solid theological foundation and practical understanding for navigating life as a believer. The conversations here are rooted in the conviction that God's Word is sufficient and transformative, offering clarity when other voices create confusion. Beyond strengthening the church, this podcast also speaks directly to anyone on the outside looking in-whether you're curious about the God of the Bible or feel disconnected from contemporary church expressions. It’s for those who sense that mainstream spiritual discourse often misses the deeper, timeless truths. You’ll hear discussions that tackle real questions with intellectual honesty and pastoral care, always circling back to what the scriptures actually say. Tune in for a perspective that challenges prevailing assumptions not with trendy arguments, but with a faithful examination of foundational doctrine. The aim is to equip listeners to stand firm in their convictions and engage the world with wisdom, echoing the call to skillfully stand before kings. This is a podcast dedicated to substance over spectacle, where ancient text informs modern life.
