In this episode we’ll talk about the Books of first, second, and third John, and also the book of Jude. John was one of the original apostles of Jesus, as in “Peter, James, and John,” and Jude was a half-brother to Jesus Christ, one of Mary and Joseph’s literal children. We’ll talk about the problem of “doctrinal drift,” which is one of the main reasons so many of the New Testament books were written. We’ll talk about the process of change, and how backsliding is a common experience that is not to be feared. We’ll discuss how moving forward, despite periodic backsliding, can increase our mental and emotional health in more ways than one.
