Today, we’re embarking on a three part series on “doing church,” so to speak. It’s not so much about theology, it’s more about church culture. For those who weren’t raised in church and became Christians as adults, walking into church for the first time can be unfamiliar and daunting. But even if you were raised in church, or you're moving your membership to a new church, there are still things about “doing church” that we can lear...

Today we’re going to be looking at a recently released study that sheds some light on the wild and wacky ways people worship and the worldview they hold - especially professing Christians. How would you have answered the questions in this survey, and how should we, as doctrinally sound Christians, respond in light of the results of this survey?

Today we are taking on a tough topic that has been in the news for the past year and recently came to a very sad conclusion - sexual abuse at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City (IHOP-KC) - and the devastating results are worse than anyone could have thought. We'll give you some background on IHOP-KC, its leadership, and its doctrine. We also want to talk about this from a believer’s perspective. How should Christians ...

Why do we often look up to Christian celebrities instead of anonymous servants? And why, when we think about finding a place of service in the local church, do we usually gravitate toward positions that will put us in the spotlight and give us recognition, rather than gravitating toward anonymous, thankless jobs? Today we're looking at the meaning of servanthood, our manner of servanthood, and our mindset and motives regarding serv...

Amy Spreeman recently sat down with our good friend Dave Jenkins on his podcast called Contending for the Word to talk about the marks of theological liberalism, or as it's more commonly known, "Progressive Christianity." What do Christians need to know about this movement seeping into many churches, and how can we contend for the faith?

Cessationism has to do with whether all of the spiritual gifts given by God to Believers that we read about in the New Testament are for Christians today. It is a controversial topic for a lot of people. Many of you may be familiar with the 2023 documentary film, Cessationist, and today we’re excited to welcome our brother who wrote and narrated Cessationist, David Lovi.

Recently, there have been two notable instances of theologically conservative, Reformed Christians welcoming in false teachers, introducing them to their audiences, and, by doing so, essentially giving them their seal of approval. And they’re not the only ones. This kind of thing happens all the time with high profile Christians, parachurch ministries, and churches. We'll explore the Scriptures that explain why this is a sin and ha...

Should Abigail have submitted to Nabal? Should you submit to your husband if he tells you to wear a red dress every day? Women are to submit to our husbands, but what about husbands loving and honoring their wives? Listen in as we discuss biblical submission and honor in the Christian marriage.

With the holiday season now upon us, we thought we'd share one of our most downloaded episodes. How should a Christian relate to someone in their lives who is obviously living in sexual sin, without appearing to condone this marriage? Thankfully, God does not leave us without answers. As with every other issue in life, our thinking, our words, and our actions must be shaped by and in submission to the authority of Scripture. Not pu...
