Every believer begins the journey toward faith with questions. Those questions may differ, but they all ultimately lead to the same place, "Is there a God?" Until we answer that question with certainty, we will weave in and out of faith, unsure of what we really believe, and just who we believe in. Am I: Building a Life of Personal Faith helps take the growing believer through the fundamental questions of faith, not to preach what they should believe, but rather to uncover what they already believe.

Humans today are desperate to adapt, and also too stubborn to change. On the Scott Vs. Sarah podcast, two comedians who are opposites in many ways talk about a new topic every week, in the hopes to understand one another better, and hopefully remain friends at the end. Scott MacLean is more logical. Sarah MacLellan is more emotional. This oil and water friendship is the perfect team to tackle today's ridiculous and relevant topics. Hosted on Acast.

What causes faith to transform from an intellectual knowing about God to a passionate love story with God? Scott MacLellan asked this question as his daughter battled cancer and he looked for purpose in his family’s suffering. He couldn’t believe that God was uninterested, but he also rejected trite reassurances. He finally found a satisfying answer in the three-step passage—based on the writings of Solomon—that Christian mystics identified as a path through pain to true spiritual devotion. In The Ancient Ladder, Scott helps us apply the wisdom of past centuries to our challenges today.
