What if the God you’ve been avoiding is actually the Father you’ve been longing for?
In this conversation, Todd, Laura, and Kelly unpack one of the most misunderstood persons of the Trinity: God the Father. Is He angry? Distant? Disconnected from the love and grace of Jesus? Not even close.
We trace His heart from the Old Testament through the New, revealing a deeply personal Father who initiates redemption, loves relentlessly, and invites us into real relationship—not religion. From the parable of the Prodigal Son to the bold claims of Christian theology, this episode clears up common misconceptions about God, showing how the Father’s love has always been the driving force behind salvation.
✅ If you’ve ever wrestled with your view of God… ✅ If you’ve felt closer to Jesus than the “Old Testament Father”… ✅ If you’re ready to rethink what it means to walk with God as Father—this one's for you.
