    #64: A Guide to Majoring in Pre-Law
    Jan 1 2026

    Are you or someone you know considering going to law school (and majoring in pre-law to prepare)? In this episode, I continue my sporadic series on various college majors students may choose. To discuss the field of Law, I’ve invited Mike Schutt, J.D., who has wide experience and vast knowledge in this field.

    In this podcast we discuss:

    • How Mike got interested in studying Law
    • Some of the career options for those who study Law
    • Undergraduate majors to prepare for law school
    • Where he discovered some of the connections between the Christian worldview and law, and how that shaped him
    • What helped him grow in his faith during law school
    • Some challenges he faced as a believer in law school
    • Things you must understand to pick the right law school and flourish there
    • Some ways Christians in law can have a redemptive influence for Christ
    • The importance of joining the Christian Legal Society for the journey through law school
    • The proper role of the Lord in the discernment process when considering law school

  • #63: Why Studying Hard is Good for Your Soul as Well as Your GPA

    #63: Why Studying Hard is Good for Your Soul as Well as Your GPA
    Dec 1 2025

    In this episode, we challenge the idea that studying as a student (and throughout the rest of our lives) is a necessary evil. Rather, we discuss why study is to be embraced and how it plays an important role in forming us into Christ’s image as we increasingly learn to love God with our minds. My guest is Dr. Richard Smith, who has just written Such a Mind as This, a study of the role of thinking well in the Old Testament.

    In this podcast we discuss:

    • The role the mind plays in our flourishing
    • What the Old Testament has to say about the role of thinking in spiritual formation
    • Why so many churches and ministries see the mind as the enemy of growth in Christ
    • How the shift in worship music can be harmful to our spiritual life
    • How the belief that deeper study is harmful to our spiritual life negatively affects students
    • Examples of students who have flourished by asking good questions and finding good answers

    Resources mentioned during our conversation:

    • Richard Smith, Such a Mind as This
    • John Frame, The Doctrine of the Knowledge of God

    #62: Losing Your Faith and Finding It Again
    Nov 1 2025
    This episode’s conversation is especially important if you’ve ever felt like your faith was unraveling—or if you’ve watched someone you care about go through that. I’m joined by Dr. Peter Schuurman, a sociologist, pastor, and co-author of Blessed Are the Undone: Testimonies of the Quiet Deconstruction of Faith in Canada. It’s a book full of real-life stories from people who have struggled with their faith — and it addresses themes well beyond the Canadian context. Whether you’re deconstructing, reconstructing, or just trying to hang on to your faith—this conversation is for you. In this podcast we discuss: Why Peter wrote Blessed Are The Undone for this momentWhat surprised him most when interviewing believers who are “deconstructing” their faithWhy it is so important to know why Christianity is true before going to collegeThe role parents, pastors, and Christian communities can have in helping students doubting their faithDiscerning the difference between healthy doubt and losing one’s faithWhy “inerrancy” and LGBTQ are often stumbling blocks leading students (and others) to deconstruct their faithHow to rebuild a sustainable faith after deconstructionAdvice on finding a healthy churchThe importance of also deconstructing our atheistic, hedonistic culture and universitiesThe value of listening to others’ stories of their journey to faith Resources mentioned during our conversation: Peter Schuurman and Angela Reitsma Bick, Blessed Are The Undone: Testimonies of the Quiet Deconstruction of Faith in CanadaKeith Campbell, “Filter-Free Praying When Things Get Tough,” College Faith Podcast #57Stan Wallace and J.P.
