What is in a name?  Everyone uses the word "god" for some reason or another.  Whether it's a casual swear or play on the word or assigning religious or spiritual value.  In this Episode we will tackle a couple of questions and talk more about what makes the Christian God different than other religions and we'll also talk about some of the challenge whole nations and countries have trouble recognizing Jesus as the Messiah.In the show notes Mike mentions a quote from C.S. Lewis and he wanted to share it in fuller context: "There are no ordinary people. You have never met a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations – these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat.”  ...  "It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest and most uninteresting person you can talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship, or else a horror and a corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare. All day long we are, in some degree, helping each other to one or other of these destinations.To email your questions for us to consider on the podcast, please email Mike Westendorf at [email protected] Questions, Great Conversations is a podcast of St. Paul's Lutheran and The Bridge in Muskego, WI.  Please visit www.stpaulmuskego.org for more information.
