  Episode 358: Examining the Mormon Home Curriculum Come, Follow Me with Former Latter-day Saint Casey Brianne - Part One

  Sep 28, 20261h 1m

  Since 2018, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been publishing teaching curriculum for its members to study at home each week. It's called Come, Follow Me. Every year the curriculum focuses on a specific section of either the Bible or the Mormon scriptures. In 2026, the focus of CFM is the Old Testament. You can see the curriculum for yourself on the LDS Gospel Library App. It's free and available to LDS and the general public alike. This particular week, CFM is focused on several chapters from the Book of Isaiah. And this week and next on Apologetics Profile, we'll be discussing CFM and some of its teaching on the Book of Isaiah and how that teaching obscures and covers up a lot of what Isaiah is really all about. We'll be talking with former Latter-day Saint Casey Brianne, fiancee of our very own Apologetics Profile host Daniel Ray. Casey was a Latter-day Saint for 16 years, baptized as a young adult convert into the LDS Church at the age of 21. Here on part one Casey will share a bit of her story and we'll get into a bit about what CFM has to say about the Book of Isaiah. If you know of any Latter-day Saints, please share the broadcast with them this week and next!

  Episode 357: What Is Beauty? With Author and Theologian Dr. Dennis Bray

  Sep 14, 2026—

  You've heard it said "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." What exactly, though, does that really mean? While it is true we all seem intuitively to know beauty when we see it, we find it difficult to pin down an exact definition of what beauty actually is. Is it subjectively determined or is beauty as objectively real as the stars above us? This week and next on the Profile, we tackle this engrossing question with philosophical theologian and assistant professor of theology at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana. We discuss his new book What Is Beauty ? Dennis Bray (PhD, University of St Andrews) is a philosophical theologian who integrates insights from philosophy, biblical and systematic theology, history, and the empirical sciences. He is assistant professor of theology at Taylor University. Thumbnail image credit: The Orion Nebula. NASA, ESA, M.

  Episode 355: To Live Well with Dr. Alan Noble - Part Two

  Sep 7, 202630 min

  In the chaotic times in which we live, how can we navigate through its darkness? Where can we find the light of true wisdom? Where can we find rest for our souls? Jesus says in Matthew 11:28-30 "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and YOU SHALL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. For My yoke is easy, and My load is light.” Jesus also tells us He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. And by being in Christ, we have been declared righteous. We are on the path of righteousness, and, "...the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, That shines brighter and brighter until the full day" (Proverbs 4:18). By not leaning on our own understanding, by trusting in the Lord with all of our hearts, we act virtuously and shine as lights in a dark world. But even our virtuous acts are all of grace (Ephesians 2:8-10). This is part two of our conversation with English Professor at Oklahoma Baptist University Dr. Alan Noble about his latest book To Live Well. Come and see! From AlanNoble.com Alan Noble is Assistant Professor of English at Oklahoma Baptist University. Alan launched the group Public Faith with Michael Wear to offer an alternative evangelical political voice. He also joined The AND Campaign as an advisor, were he served for a number of years.

  Episode 355: To Live Well with Dr. Alan Noble - Part One

  Aug 31, 202641 min

  In a world that often seems to be chaotically out of control, in a world of an endless cacophony of competing voices, in a world that encourages us to do whatever we want, in a world that relentlessly encourages us to pursue our own interests and desires, how can we possibly even begin to "live well"? What does that mean? Is it pursuing personal peace and affluence? The perfect job? The perfect spouse? The right college? The right neighborhood? Our guest this week on the Profile, Dr. Alan Noble of Oklahoma Baptist University, has written a helpful little guide that answers these and other questions about what it means for Christians to live well. This is not a self-help book or a name-it-and-claim-it prosperity treatise, but an invitation to meditate upon and pursue the ancient virtues. Noble does not advocate that we are earning God's favor by pursuing the virtues. Rather, because we are made righteous in Christ, we have the freedom in Christ to pursue patience, wisdom, charity, love, courage, and resoluteness. The pursuit of virtue is not dry religious legalism, but an adventure, accomplished by and through the Holy Spirit. Come and see!
