Episode 124: Is Jesus the Only Way? [Part 2] Lindsey Medenwaldt and Daniel Ray discuss pluralism

<p>What would you say to a skeptic who asks you to describe the differences between your faith and the faith of a Muslim or a Hindu? Would you be able to explain the basic differences between your faith and that of a Mormon or Jehovah's Witness who knocks at your door? </p><p><br></p><p>In our ever-increasingly religiously diverse and pluralistic society, we cannot afford to ignore the ideas, beliefs, and practices surrounding us. But we also do not need to become scholars in comparative religions to be able to give a defense for the hope that is in us as Christians to those who believe differently than we do. </p><p><br></p><p>On part two of our conversation about religious pluralism, Mama Bear Apologetics world religions specialist Lindsey Medenwaldt gives us more practical advice about how to engage with those of other faiths. Knowing what others believe and giving a defense to them of your faith in Christ is not as overwhelming as it might first seem.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Lindsey Medenwaldt</strong> is Director of Ministry Operations at Mama Bear Apologetics, and she is their resident worldview and world religion specialist.
