Amazed and Perplexed
The God revealed in Scripture is more astounding than we could ever dream and more peculiar than we could ever imagine. Amazed and Perplexed is a podcast that engages the Bible earnestly and reverently as we grapple with that reality. In every episode, we strive to honor and give dignity to God and to the men and women of Scripture. Amazed and Perplexed is hosted by longtime friends Jason Thornton and Connor Bryant.

You might notice some weird background noise; we apologize. We did our best to eliminate as much distracting noise as possible.

What does Jesus mean when he tells his disciples, "Truly, I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven?" How can this idea be lived out, and what sort of impact could it have if more emphasis were put on this teaching?

The wisdom of Jesus can seem like foolishness through our modern lenses. How do we seek to be like Jesus when the perception could come off as irresponsible? Also, Connor gets a lot long early in this episode.
