"The Story of Anthony"..inductively told

Mike Furches, who pastors not only online via The Virtual Pew, but now also for Mosaic Church ("a church for people who have given up on church") in Wichita, spoke at a home meeting for our church a few years ago.

But the section linked below does an amazing job of satirically...and inductively.. getting to the heart of some live biblical issues...including the question in the title. The episode is here
