Christ is the expression of God the Father. Logos in the Greeks terminology is eternal reasoning, or the rationale or reason for God.

I have been uplifted and strengthened by your podcast over the last year. However, the ads that come up after I end an episode have become problematic and now a little inappropriate. Please review your ad choices a little closer. Thanks for an inspiring show and keep going strong.

Well I'm glad these Mormons are reading from the Hebrew and Greek scriptures. Doing so will show that there is only one God (Yahweh) who has always been God.

I found your thoughts on hope vs faith very touching. I recently gave our daughter a blessing of healing. I hope that God Will bless our child. I acted on my faith by giving her a blessing. Before this podcast I didn’t understand laman and lemuels lack of faith but they had plenty of faith. They were lacking the hope that the gospel could make them happy even though their entire world was upended by their fathers hope.
