#008 Kevin Miller: Hellbound? (Does Hell Exist? If So, Who Ends Up There, And Why?)

Does hell exist? If so, how can a loving God allow millions of people to suffer in a place of eternal conscious torment? In this episode, I interview award-winning screenwriter, director and producer, Kevin Miller. And we discuss his provocative, critically acclaimed documentary Hellbound? which, in Kevin’s words, “seeks to discover why we are so bound to the idea of hell and what our views on hell reveal about how we perceive God, justice, the Bible and, ultimately, ourselves.” IN THIS EPISODE, KEVIN ANSWERS THE FOLLOWING: • Why do so many loving Christians still believe in hell? • When did you start questioning hell? • I once heard you say that the “belief in hell creates hell.” What did you mean? • Where does the imagery of hell (fire, darkness, torture) come from? • If someone believes in the Christian God, does he or she have to believe in hell, too? • Is hell part of the Christian message? • What did the early church believe about hell? • It’s often said that Jesus spoke more about hell than heaven. Is that true? • Why are so many people afraid to question hell? • Does it makes sense for God to give Hitler a free pass into heaven without any punishment? • Is eternal conscious torment the only view of the afterlife for Christians to hold to? • If there’s no eternal hell, then why the need for a savior? • How did the writers of Scripture know with certainty what happens after we die? • If there were no Bible, would people still believe in hell? • If people really believe in hell, then why aren’t they sharing their faith 24/7 to save people from it? • If we’re all trying to make sense of the world, does the idea of hell really make a good story? • As you toured the film and did Q&A’s, what were some of the responses?

Joshua Tongol - "The Place" Interview With Michael and Rhonda Jones

Joshua Tongol - "The Place" Interview With Michael and Rhonda Jones

Visit http://newcovenantgroup.com/ The New Covenant Group: Atheists and Theists Together The is the The Place for intellectual, spiritual and scriptural honesty. In time, we hope to be The Place of this kind of honesty, but it may take some time to get there. So, this is not The Place of "Us versus Them", but it's rather The Place of "This versus That". If I can't put atheists first, then I'm not willing to be last, and if I can't do unto others as I would do unto myself, then I'm not like Christ. So, am I willing to wrestle with questions outside of my comfort zone, or am I just too afraid of change. ~Michael W. Jones List of some of the questions asked during this show: 1. Is it ever moral for any father to have his child beaten beyond recognition and tortured to death so that he can help/forgive the rest of his children? 2. What caused you to start questioning the bible and its doctrines? 3. Have we always been God's children? or did a prerequisite have to be met for us to be considered His children? 4. Do all of us deserve the Father's love, support, and protection, or should we feel undeserving? 5. What is unconditional love and acceptance? And why do you advocate them so much? 6. What are your thoughts on penal substitution, Christus Victor, and other atonement theories? 7. Do you think that the bible is actually God's word or is it simply what man said God said? 8. What is the difference between religion and following Christ? 9. We've been hosting a series entitled, "Is Church Harmful?", what are your thoughts on this? 10. What are the three biggest 'sacred cows' in the church/religion today? The Place: michael and rhonda jones with special guests: Joshua Tongol and Michael Fulford - Captured Live on Ustream

aplacetotalk Podcast Interview 2013 - A Chat with Joshua Tongol and Josh McDowell

Visit: http://aplacetotalk.net/weeklytalks/ From Josh McDowell's podcast description: I'm blessed to get to talk to people like Joshua Tongol! I saw his first name and just decided to give him a call on the off chance that we would have similar hearts, and what do you know -- WE DO! Just kidding, I saw a few of Joshua's You Tube videos and I felt certain that I would love to hear from him and I did. As I heard Joshua's story (there are many interesting and unique parts) I felt like I was hearing my story in a parallel universe. Our stories are unique, but we're clearly talking to the same Father! I hope you enjoy this chat! Please visit Joshua's website and support him anyway God leads you to!
