About this listen
Description:
Thomas finally sends the text message that changes everything: "I don't believe anymore."
In this heartbreaking episode, we sit in the empty space left behind when a friend walks away from the faith. We explore the psychology of deconversion as a "Death of a Worldview"—a loss that must be mourned, not argued with. We witness Peter’s raw "Wilderness Prayer," where he moves from anguish to surrender, and hear an unexpected lesson from Jim, the atheist, on why we need a "vertical connection" to survive a "horizontal life."
Finally, we look at Peter's response—a masterclass in unconditional love—and find hope in the Parable of the Prodigal Son, reminding us that sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is wait and watch the horizon.
In this episode:
- The Raindrop Meditation: Confronting the fragility of life.
- Grief vs. Argument: Why Thomas needs to mourn his old life.
- Vertical vs. Horizontal Living: Finding stability in a chaotic world.
- Love Beyond Agreement: How to stay friends when faith fades.
- The Prodigal Father: The power of waiting without condemning.
