- Ep. 318: ARE YOU PREPARED TO SHARE YOUR FAITH?!?
There has been a quote floating around for many years that says, “Preach the Gospel at all times; when necessary, use words.” This quote has been shared by many Christians with good intentions, but there are some problems with it. The main problem is this: it’s just not biblical. Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends some time with author and pastor Matt Smethurst as they discuss 5 tools to help you become evangelism ready and how it is absolutely crucial to use words! Tune in and learn how we can better prepare ourselves to share our faith boldly and confidently!
53m | Mar 27, 2023 - Ep. 317: DO HUMOUR AND GOSPEL MIX?!?
LOL! In case you don’t know what that means, it stands for “Laugh Out Loud!” Join Andrew Marcus as he sits with Phil Callaway from Laugh Again to talk about the importance of laughter, and how true joy in Christ changes everything in your life! Just because Phil is a humorist doesn’t mean his life has always been easy. We sit with Phil and talk about some of the challenges he’s gone through and how having an attitude of gratitude is essential to getting through those challenges!
48m | Mar 20, 2023 - Ep. 316: TOO LEGIT TO QUIT
A big debate about the Bible is that it is just a story. That it is basically writings that only contain symbolism or allegorical writings. Were Adam and Eve real people? Or are they just a symbol of humanity? What about Noah and the ark? Did Jonah really live in the belly of a fish for three days before God made the fish puke him out? Don’t even get started on the book of Revelation!! Join Andrew Marcus with pastor Brent Smith from Riverside Calvary Chapel as they unpack how the Scriptures can be trusted as absolute truth.
49m | Mar 13, 2023 - Ep. 315: YOU’RE MORE INFLUENTIAL THAN YOU THINK!
Influential? Who? Me? Yes! Gen Z’s are on a mission for mentors and answers to life’s big questions. Guess who they are more likely going to turn to for it? YOU! No matter how old you are there is always someone younger that you can connect with on a deeper level. For their sake and yours! If you are a young adult, whether you like it or not, they are looking to you for wisdom, encouragement and someone to journey through life with. So to sum it all up: if you are a young adult, you are an influencer.
44m | Mar 6, 2023 - Ep. 314: IS "THE CHOSEN" BIBLICAL?!?
Have you heard of the hit series THE CHOSEN? Maybe you are one of the millions of people who have engaged with it. Maybe not. Either way, we dive into the show with the co-creator Amanda Jenkins to talk about how it was birthed from a really challenging season, how God used their brokenness to reveal His grace on their lives, and how it’s impacting viewers around the world. But is it biblically accurate? Is it something that substitutes our daily Bible reading? We dive in to all that and more!
44m | Feb 27, 2023 - Ep. 313: IS ONLINE CHURCH ACTUALLY CHURCH???
Many people have become too comfortable with their new reality of church: alone in the comfort of their own home, wearing their PJ’s with a stack of pancakes and a fresh coffee. The question is: is that actually church? Join our host Andrew Marcus as he spends some time with Kamloops Alliance Church’s lead pastor Chris Throness as they unpack what biblical community ought to look like. Spoiler alert: neither online church nor the heavy emphasis on our Sunday morning experience might be the right answer.
56m | Feb 20, 2023 - Ep. 312: CELEBRATING 11 YEARS OF INDOUBT WITH THE OGs!!!
Happy 11th birthday to INDOUBT! Although THE INDOUBT SHOW is new, we’ve had an incredible history of resourcing young people over the past 11 years. Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with the founder of INDOUBT Mike Cumiskey, as well as other hosts in the past including Isaac Dagneau, Ryan McCurdy and Daniel Markin as they talk about what’s new in their lives, their passion for INDOUBT, and how important it is for us to be grounded on truth!
1h 2m | Feb 13, 2023 - Ep. 311: THE GREAT RESET?! WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON IN THE CHURCH!?
If you haven’t been aware of this reality, it might be shocking. People are leaving the Church and their faith altogether at an alarming rate. Why is it happening and what can we do to not be a part of the statistic? It’s been said that, “what you win them with is what you win them to.” Dr. John Neufeld from Back to the Bible Canada joins host Andrew Marcus to talk about the greatest reset that needs to take place in the Church. Now more than ever, we need to be grounded on absolute truth found only in the Word of God.
57m | Feb 6, 2023 - Ep. 231: Is Doubt a Sin?
Join Isaac and pastor, author, and podcaster Tim Elmore as they sit down and talk about doubt. Often, we see doubt, especially in regard to faith, as a bad thing. But Tim and Isaac discuss why doubt isn’t always bad, and can actually be a healthy thing! When we go through periods of doubt in our faith in God, is that just highlighting our lack of faith? This is a great conversation that is beneficial to any follower of Christ- whether you’ve been a Christian for 50 years or 5 days- doubt always seems to creep into our lives- so how do we manage it?
28m | Jan 30, 2023 - Ep. 228: What Is Outrage Culture?
Why is it that so many people today get offended easily, even going out of their way to find something to be offended about? At times, it feels like you can’t share even the mildest opinion for fear that someone around you will get upset. This week, Isaac is going to be speaking with pastor and author Scott Sauls about just that, the prevalence of outrage culture in our society today. Whether it was a tweet or Facebook post from 10 seconds or 10 years ago, we as a society seem to take pleasure in tearing down anyone who says anything we disagree with, even if that means taking things out of context. Is that how we as Christians are called to respond? Is that what love looks like? We’re so happy you’re here to listen as Isaac and Scott talk about a biblical response to this issue, as well as why gentleness may be the ultimate secret weapon to combating a cancel culture in today’s society.
28m | Jan 23, 2023 - Ep. 208: Is My Singleness a Punishment?
Singleness is a calling. Singleness is a gift. But how often do we actually think of it like that and not the opposite? Jon Tyson joins us this week on indoubt to break down the stigma surrounding singleness in today’s culture. Looking at the different examples of singleness and marriage in our culture, in our churches, and in our own lives, Jon and Daniel talk through some of the ideas surrounding our relationship statuses and discuss how we can embrace our season of singleness, or the single people around us. Jon offers a healthy, biblical perspective on your season of singleness, and how to maximize God’s calling on your life during this time of your life!
28m | Jan 16, 2023 - Ep. 310: Faith Perspectives in Politics
Canada’s political culture seems to be changing. Where it was once a place where all could freely express their faith, it is now becoming increasingly difficult to do so. What has changed about Canada’s political culture that is making it difficult for people of faith? This week we are joined by Bruce Clemenger, author and president of the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada, to walk us through his new book, The New Orthodoxy: Canada’s Emerging Civil Religion. Bruce gives us a brief overview of the history of Canada’s statecraft, and also expands upon the biases in our current government that result in challenges for religious people. Bruce closes out the conversation with an inspiring message in how we can remain hopeful amid a secular state.

It’s not just unbelievers and agnostics who have questions about Christianity. Even those of us who have been believers for years may find ourselves pondering and reflecting on the core elements of Christianity. This week we’re joined by a guest who is no stranger to the podcast, Andy Steiger, President and Founder of Apologetics Canada, to walk us through an open forum he recently held entitled Questioning Christianity.

28m | Dec 26, 2022 - Ep. 206: How to Love Christmas
For most of us, the Christmas season brings about stress, comparison, and, generally, a lack of time and/or money. But is that how we should be approaching it? Should we really be experiencing Christmas this way? On this week’s episode of indoubt, Alexandra Kuykendall joins us to discuss what it means to love Christmas in the context of our actual lives. So often we immediately expect to be stressed out during the holidays because that what we’ve learned to expect. But Isaac and Alexandra encourage us to step outside of our expectations and learn to love our Christmas season, no matter what moment of life we’re in.
28m | Dec 19, 2022 - Ep. 236: The Millennial Church Exodus
Have you ever wondered why young adults are leaving the church in record numbers? On this episode of indoubt, join our host Isaac as he talks with researcher Rick Hiemstra to discuss this reality, and what we can do to prevent it. With so many young people abandoning their faith, it’s important to understand why it’s happening, and how to combat it, since, if we’re not careful, we will soon be in a world where Christianity is no longer relatable to a younger generation, and generations after us will miss out on hearing and experiencing the truth of Jesus in their lives.
28m | Dec 12, 2022 - Ep. 239: Can We Trust the Bible? (Part 2)
The Bible is one of the most famous books in history. It has been translated into nearly every language in the world, placed in most countries, and most people have some understanding of what is written inside. But with the long history and widespread popularity of the Bible, we need to ask the question: can we actually trust the Bible? Join this week’s guest Wesley Huff as he breaks down what the Bible is, why we can trust it, and how unchanged it has remained since its creation thousands of years ago!

28m | Nov 28, 2022 - Ep. 307: The Battle With Sexual Sin
We have all struggled in the battle with sexual sin. We may find ourselves stuck in a vicious cycle between self-righteousness when we are managing our temptations well, and then shame when we are not. But how can we escape the grip of sexual sin? This week we are joined by Garrett Kell, pastor and author, to discuss his book Pure in Heart: Sexual Sin and the Promises of God. Garrett reminds us that sexual purity begins in the heart, when we orient our focus on seeking Jesus and desire to be like Him. He also encourages anyone who is struggling with temptations to lean into the grace of God, and emphasizes that there is liberation from the shame of our impure desires when we shift our hearts and minds from a worldly focus to a heavenly focus.
28m | Nov 21, 2022 - Ep. 202: This Cultural Moment
Is it more important to be politically correct or to be biblically correct? As Christians, our answer should be simple/automatic but, in a culture that’s easily swayed, offended, or outraged, oftentimes, we get stuck too. On this week’s episode of indoubt, Mark Sayers joins Daniel to discuss what’s going on in our cultural moment. How do we balance what’s relevant with our faith and still remain faithful? What can we do to make a difference? Is there still hope for the future of Christianity, young adults and the local church? You’ll hear all those questions and more talked through on this episode.
