Podcast Blog: S5, E7 - Brandon Booth, From Theology to Trust

What is belief? Is it a theological practice that affirms who God is and what God has done? Or is it a way of living that exhibits trust in God and builds a relationship with God? This important episode explores how to advance from a theological stance to a trust-filled life.

Brandon Booth is the president of Signpost Inn Ministries and hosts the Signpost Inn podcast. Like Cecil, his focus is on living a practical, daily faith, with a focus on attending to Jesus’s loving presence. Booth sees people struggle because they know facts about God but aren’t able to experience him as real. This mirrors his own journey, so Booth shares ideas on how to move from knowing about God to truly knowing God.
