#099 Dealing with depression and anxiety in the midst of crisis - with Dr. Rod Wilson
This week we had the privilege of exploring some timely topics with Dr. Rod Wilson: depression, fear, and anxiety. Dr. Wilson, a former president of Regent College, is also a clinical psychologist with extensive counseling experience. Among other things, we discussed how our Christology affects how we understand ourselves: both our emotions and the ways we carry the memory of trauma in our bodies. Can a Christian have faith and fear at the same time? Should Christians only see Christian psychologists? Tune in for some helpful insight in this challenging time.

In this week's podcast, we had the privilege of talking to Dr. Tremper Longman, a distinguished biblical scholar. We talked about the veracity of the story of Noah's ark.

#096 Bringing theology to life through the arts - with Dr. Iwan Russell-Jones
It's always a treat to talk to Dr. Iwan Russell-Jones––and today’s podcast is no exception! Iwan spent 25 years as a TV and radio producer and director for the BBC before joining Regent's faculty as the Eugene and Jan Peterson Associate Professor of Theology and the Arts. Iwan is a passionate advocate for the importance of the arts in theological conversations, arguing that every generation and culture has to wrestle with the question of how the arts fit into the life of the church in that particular time and place. Is “Christian art” a real thing? Will artists see the fruit of their labor? Is Regent's Integrative Project in Arts & Theology better a thesis? Iwan has the answers.
