17:17 Podcast

We've talked before in episode 43 about what the Bible says about Mental Illness, but how should Christians deal with it?

On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through biblical strategies for identifying mental illness as well as how to deal with it in a godly way. There are many different spiritual causes for mental health struggles, and our hope is that this episode would articulate how much God cares about us and that we need Him every single day.

"You can't be pro-Science and be a Christian" - The World.

Is this claim true though? Is it possible for science and the Bible to actually align, or are they vehemently opposed to one another? 

On this podcast, Pastor Jackie and Pastor Derek talk through some historical examples of claims the Bible has made regarding the world that science once disagreed with, but has actually come around to agree with! There are numerous other examples as well, but we encourage you to listen in and hope that this episode reminds you to take God's Word at face value and allow your view of science to be shaped by the Word, not the other way around!

America is all about the separation of church and state, but what exactly does that mean? (Hint: the media has it wrong.) 

On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through the realm of Christianity and politics. Should we be involved, or should our only focus be sharing the Gospel with the lost? We look through some Scriptures of notable Bible characters who were a lot more involved in politics than you might have realized. From there, we talk through whether or not that means YOU should be involved in politics or not. With mid terms coming up in the next couple of months, be sure to listen in and have a biblical perspective on how to approach politics and voting!

In one of the biggest Supreme Court decisions in recent history, Roe v. Wade has been overturned...but how should we respond? Is this good or bad? To what extent? What exactly does this mean for abortion in America going forward?

On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through what it means for Roe v. Wade to be overturned. We talk through some concepts from episode 4 titled, "Is Abortion Always Wrong?" and add some additional Scripture to this podcast. Our hope is that this controversial topic won't be so controversial in your head after listening to this episode!

3 things are guaranteed in life: Death, taxes, and the media always bringing up race. 

On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through what the Bible says about the concept of race. Is it actually a biblical term? What does "race" really mean and is it different than ethnicity? How should we view others who look and act differently than us? Our hope is that you walk away from listening to this podcast encouraged and with a clearer picture of how to view your neighbor by loving them, regardless of their "race," and uniting with other believers rather than dividing.

With Father's Day just passing us by, we hope to help you appreciate all the fathers out there! In a culture with rampant fatherlessness (and many statistics that show the tragic impact), its important that we look at the Bible for how us fathers should be living!

On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through what a godly father should look like. We take a look at attributes of our Heavenly Father as well as commands from the Bible about the role of a father. We take a look at some shocking statistics about the role fatherlessness plays in our society today and hope to encourage any fathers or aspiring fathers out there today!

"Who do you think you are to judge me?! Only God can judge." Ever heard this before? We so often hear that we are not to judge others, but is that really what the Bible says?

On this episode, we pose the question, "Is it wrong to judge?" Being 'judgey' is one of the most common complaints against Christians calling out lifestyles they disagree with, but is that objectively wrong to do? The Bible says a lot about judgement and we dig into the difference between righteous judgment and unrighteous judgment. Our hope is that as you listen, you'd have a clearer understanding of the role of "judging" in the Christian life and to give you the Scriptural support to stand behind your beliefs.

 "Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth." - John 17:17

In light of the tragic mass shooting in Uvalde, TX, people all over are asking: "What are we going to do to stop this?!" One of the big questions is over firearms and specifically what their role should be in America. This is the gun control debate.

On this episode, we pose the question, "Should Christians support gun control?" Who is ultimately responsible? Would tighter gun control laws have kept this shooting from happening? Would a criminal find a way to do it regardless of the law? What does the Bible say about weapons and defense of oneself. Similar to a podcast we did a couple years ago about carrying a firearm, we speak to the gun control debate, using Scripture and statistics, to walk through a very controversial issue. **To be clear, we all believe these shooting to be tragic and want them to stop. People will disagree on how to make this happen and that's the interesting part of the debate.**

 "Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth." - John 17:17

If we already have established churches, what is the point of making new ones? Is "church planting" even used in the Bible? 

On today’s podcast, Pastor Jackie and guest of the show, Pastor Rickey, talk through the background of church planting and the importance of it from a Gospel perspective. With Pastor Derek out of town, Pastor Rickey brings his insight about how God has called him and his family out of Mississippi to plant a Gospel-centered church near the Twin Cities. Prepare for a whole lotta Bible and a whole lotta southern!

How many slices of pizza is acceptable before its sin? Who gets to determine that anyways?! We've all heard of gluttony, but what is it exactly?

On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through the biblical view of gluttony and how its one of the most overlooked and even endorsed sins in America today. Although the word itself isn't used often in Scripture, the Bible does have plenty to say about how we should deal with overindulgence. Our hope is that if you are struggling with gluttony today, this episode can be an encouragement to you to repent from that sin and exercise self-control to glorify Jesus!
