Episode 04: Aren't all religions the same?

Q&R Podcast

Last month on the Q&R Podcast, we tackled one of the loudest narratives in our culture: this idea of my truth vs. your truth. In Episode 4, we aim to build on that by engaging the question “Aren’t all religions the same?”

In recent years, our culture has moved away from organized religion, and this question is getting asked more frequently. As we’ll learn, part of the problem is that many people are not familiar with what the world’s holy books actually have to say.

In this episode, we attempt to uncover the truth, while embodying a posture of curiosity. We start by unpacking what unites all religions before moving on to where they divide, and specifically how the case for Christianity stacks up against other faith traditions.
