Anything But Quiet Time with Rachelle & Carder

This week we talk about loving our enemies. It's hard, but the Bible calls us to it. Even when, as in Carder's life, a scammer takes your money.

With sports seasons in full swing, where should our faith show as fans? Is there any crossover between sports and faith? We tackle that, along with touching on that question from last week, "Can I Yell at God?".

We should be real about our emotions with God. After all, he knows our heart already. But how far is too far? This week we discuss the phrase "it's ok to pound on God's chest" while going through the story of Job.

What should we do when we feel like the world is against us? Carder, who is currently in a hard season, has a couple things to keep in mind. Rachelle brings up a great Biblical example of the attitude we can/should have, even in the undesirable seasons of life. 

This week we discuss the difficulty, but also the importance of blunt conversations. Rachelle brings up talking to her teenager about things at school. Carder talks about the regret of not checking in with a friend before it was too late.

More widely held beliefs that aren't actually true when it comes to faith in Jesus. We also bring up one we didn't see eye to eye on: are all people "God's children"?

We talk about 3 widely held beliefs that aren't actually true when it comes to faith in Jesus.

A frustrating, yet relieving conversation as we discuss examples on how WE can't change people. Only God changes hearts. So what do we do in the meantime? We discuss that, along with a story where Carder's patience was tested by his friend's girlfriend. 

This week we talk about looking up from our Bible to actually love people. Carder shares a story about how a homeless man called him out. Rachelle shares about something helpful to try when looking in the mirror and you don't like what you see. 

We discuss the fascinating story of Nabeel Qureshi, who was a devout Muslim. But through seeking ultimate truth, found Jesus.
