Aus Table Talk | Adventist Conversations

In this two-part episode we talk about resilience, and what it is and how we can intentionally build resilience up so that we can live better lives even through the bad times

Eccumenism is a movement or tendency toward worldwide Christian unity or cooperation. While we would all agree that trying to work together in unity for the salvation of humanity is wonderful; the question is would do we find common ground and do we lose something of our faith’s identity when we do work together? 

In this week’s episode we do a study on the word Sanctification and how it is a process of us becoming more Christ like, we can see a great example of God’s work in us in this process in the sanctuary

This episode is our first word study and in it we look at how the bible defines and explains submission, in particular with how we relate to God. We also compare that with the submission between our fellow human beings for example inter-generational submission.

Christians spend so much energy trying to prove God is real. Is that even possible? and if it is, is it helpful? In this discussion we unpack those questions and have a good laugh along the way.

Finding problems with churches is like a sport, people love it, and it has a degree of utility. Blindly praising a church is also easy, but it has little value. Being honest about the good and the bad is much more difficult and infinitely more helpful. We have focused on the bad in a previous series, in this one we are Balancing the discussion by looking for what was done well. In this week’s episode we talk about health and how when it is looked at in a holistic view it has a spiritual aspect which is important, as our health affects our walk with God.

Often we talk a lot about the things the church messed up (which we should do if we are to improve) but this episode is our launch pad for a new series devoted to things the church got right. Some of them may surprise you, and If we have missed any, please let us know as always we want to hear your feedback.

Matthew 24 has such relevance to us today, but so many people read it at a surface level and interpret it in a traditional way. While we are not saying that is incorrect, there is much more to it we don't talk about. Join us and read Matt 24 afresh.

Euthanasia can be a polarising topic with passionate views no matter what side of the fence you sit on. In this conversation we attempt to put prejudice aside and talk about both sides of the issue. It is a heavy topic and obviously we talk about mortality and death in general, so consider that a warning if you are sensitive to the topic. If you are ready, jump into this ep with us!

Have you ever tried to "Fake it 'till you make it"? was it effective? We break down what this looks like when applied to our faith, ways it might even be healthy and when it is not healthy how to escape the spiral.

After 5 years we finally have a home. and we are moving to video, and there are a few things you need to know...https://austabletalk.com.au/give/

The sexual binge and purge cycle is a silent brokenness that is carried around by so many. Including christians, pastors, men and women. We would even say that if you have never experienced it, you certainly know someone who has. This is a problem that thrives in darkness, so we are bringing a floodlight to the conversation.

Mothers are the unsung heroes of our lives, it is all to rare that we pause to reflect on their power and value. In this episode we reflect on the role of mothers, our own experience and how we can relate to them the way God wants us to.

What is your calling? is it the same thing as your career? should it be? This is exactly the question that was sent to us! So in this episode we process all these ideas and also share about our own callings.

So many people wrestle with the idea of dating outside their faith community. In this episode we attempt to take a balanced look at the issue, avoid the dogma and provide some practical thoughts on how to approach this idea.

We reflexively throw around the question "How are you" almost as a default polite greeting, never truly expecting an honest reply. In this episode we talk about the importance of digging past the surface and at the end we all answer the question truthfully.

Managing relationships is always a challenge, and the rules of engagement get even more fuzzy when you add faith to the mix. Your theology inescapably alters how you relate to others. in this episode we try to make sense of it all and share some of our own experiences. We also welcome to the table for the very first time.... Matthew DeRossi!
