Ep. 148: Adding to the Conversation – Marijuana, Science and Creationism

On this week’s episode, we listen to a conversation between Dr. Mark Ward, Dr. John Neufeld, and Ben Lowell. They continue the dialogue on the issue of marijuana legalization and touch on purpose and motivations. The three also look at the conflicts between recreational and medicinal usage, whether practical or not. The second half of the conversation digs into the existence of God and the realities of science in today’s culture. Towards the end, the topic of creationism also enters the conversation and they discuss the areas that we cannot compromise on as Christians, the areas where there’s room for disagreement, and the fact that the truth cannot be suppressed.

Dr. John Neufeld gives a 15-minute presentation on this question, taken from our recent Let’s Talk: Marijuana indoubt:live event. He gives 4 biblical principles that will help shape our understanding. Even if you’re not interested in engaging recreational marijuana, it’s important to know and live out these biblical principles.

Ep. 114: Culture’s Words and Actions on Recreational Marijuana Use

What is culture saying when it comes to recreational marijuana us? “We want freedom.” In February we hosted “Let’s Talk:Marijuana,” a live event that featured a Bible scholar, an author, and a doctor who talked primarily about the Christian perspective on recreational marijuana use.
