The way we approach issues of faith and issues of the culture matter — we need to approach them from a perspective of biblical authority and biblical literacy.

A Life of Integrity Aug 31, 2022

Show notes

Integrity is an issue the modern church has been plagued with for as long as most of us can remember. Proverbs 11:3 says, “The integrity of the righteous guides them, but the hypocrisy of the treacherous destroys them.” Let's discuss the issue of integrity and look at three areas we need to focus on having integrity.

“Did God Really Say?” Has God’s View on Homosexuality Changed? | What Does God Say About Large Families? | Charter Schools v Homeschooling Aug 30, 2022

Show notes

Today I’m tackling questions from listeners! A “pastor” in Florida is teaching that homosexuality is “holy” and that God holds it in high regard. Sadly, this kind of teaching is growing in the modern progressive church. The intended effect of so-called “revisionist gay theology” is to disengage the church from the wider cultural debate about homosexuality by redefining it as God-ordained and morally permissible. And just like the serpent’s temptation to Eve in the Garden, leaders in the “gay-Christian” movement are tempting us with the question: “Did God really say…that homosexuality is a sin?” SHOW NOTES

How Modern Feminism is Making Men AND Women Miserable Aug 25, 2022

Show notes

Today’s feminist movement bears little to no resemblance to the movement that was rallying women together for basic human rights: the right to vote, to own a business for example. Many women today have bought into the lie that feminism will empower and free them. The so-called “Women’s March” is an angry group of women who scream their abortions, and deny the God-given roles of men and women. Its attempt to dismantle the family unit will bring neither power nor freedom. Men and women are different by design. Let’s celebrate our differences and stop trying to pretend they don’t exist.

The Truth About Public School Starts Here: Education is Not Neutral Aug 24, 2022

Show notes

Recently, Babylon Bee put out a satirical headline that struck a little to close to home for many people when it showed a picture of a yellow school bus dropping kids off and declared, “Thousands of Kindergarteners Dropped off Across the Nation for First Day of Grooming.” Before you get offended, consider this: Parents are putting their kids on these buses, and sending them to places that are teaching them that their gender is malleable, that God doesn’t exist, and that the earth is on a collision course thanks to “climate change.“ Government schools are teaching false history, creating social activists and kids who don’t know how blessed they are to live in America. Education is not neutral! Listen in as I talk about this very important topic. SHOW NOTES

Secrets to Living a Joy-Filled Life Aug 23, 2022

Show notes

Have you ever struggled through seasons of disappointment, distress or discouragement? My hunch is that, like me and so many others, you have. The apostle Paul was no stranger to suffering and yet, he often spoke of living in the “fullness of joy.” Corrie Ten Boom, who suffered under the Nazis and lost most of her family in the holocaust said, “Joy is not a product of your circumstances. It is the unmistakable sign of the presence of God.” Today, I’ll be sharing some thoughts on why I Christians should be known as people of joy… no matter what they are facing. Strength is found in the joy of the Lord! SHOW NOTES

Break Free from Drama: Finding Peace in the Midst of Panic with Dr Mark Sherwood Aug 19, 2022

Show notes

In our 24/7 news cycle, it’s easy to become addicted to drama. The headlines scream the next crisis and culture reacts accordingly. New day, new disease. New day, new directive. The result? Many of us, and consequently our children, are addicted to adrenaline and its cousin, cortisol—and it’s not good for us. The Bible teaches us that fear is a spirit and that it is not from God. So what to do? How can we live free from fear and walk in newness of life in Christ? How can we teach our children what it looks like to walk in peace regardless of what’s happening around us? Listen in as Dr. Mark Sherwood and I discuss it!. SHOW NOTES
