After examining and investigating the faith claims of Evangelical Christianity, he concluded he could no longer embrace the faith he had given his life to. His exit from Christianity was basically due to the tenets of his lifelong faith no longer aligning with his core beliefs of toleration and acceptance of all people, and his belief that life is to be lived for the moments that are contained within this one life we know we have; rather than viewing this life as a “temporary” life until we enter eternity. On February 26, 2019, Dave received the devastating diagnosis of ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease). Suddenly, for Dave this precious and brief life became infinitely more precious and incredibly brief.

In this RfRx session we will be looking at the religious idea of “sin”, and what it has done to society as a whole and individuals. We will also discuss the trauma associated with it. Dave Warnock is a former conservative Evangelical pastor and church leader of 40 years. 10 years ago he began to question, examine and investigate his evangelical Christianity faith claims. He came to the conclusion that those beliefs came up short and it took him several years to work through how to live without belief. He realized that this was his one life and there was nothing after. His motto became “Carpe Diem” and he began living his best life. Following a fatal diagnosis of ALS in February 2019, his motto has been turbo charged. The first hour will be the topic discussion, followed by a Q&A session in which you can ask the guests your great questions. After the Q&A we’ll open up the lines for everyone and just talk and hangout for a bit with the hosts and guest(s).
