In this honest and practical discussion, Pastor Mike from Focal Point Ministries answers a listener’s question about whether a Christian couple should break up after falling into sexual temptation before marriage. Pastor Mike explains that romantic attraction is normal—and expected—in a godly relationship, but couples must set clear boundaries and seek accountability. Instead of throwing away a good relationship over a failure, he encourages couples to repent, reset their boundaries, and create safe, structured environments where they won’t stumble again. If deeper issues exist, they may need further counsel, but temptation alone doesn’t mean the relationship should end.Text ASK to 90398 to ask Pastor Mike a Bible Question.Text GOLIVE to 90398 to be notified when ASK Pastor Mike is LIVE.Find more ways to learn your Bible at https://focalpointministries.org/Have a Bible Question?

In this thoughtful conversation, Pastor Mike from Focal Point Ministries answers a new believer’s question about whether her fiancé must wait for her non-Christian parents to approve their marriage. Pastor Mike explains that while parental blessing is helpful, it is not required—especially when the parents do not share a biblical value system. He encourages believers to seek wise, godly counsel from mature Christians who can affirm the relationship and provide support. Pastor Mike also reminds listeners that while parental approval makes life easier, it should not prevent a couple from entering a marriage that honors Christ.Text ASK to 90398 to ask Pastor Mike a Bible Question.Text GOLIVE to 90398 to be notified when ASK Pastor Mike is LIVE.Find more ways to learn your Bible at https://focalpointministries.org/Have a Bible Question?

In this thoughtful theological discussion, Pastor Mike from Focal Point Ministries explains whether Jesus was capable of sin during His earthly ministry. He walks through the biblical truth of the hypostatic union—Christ being fully God and fully man—and shows how His divine nature could not sin while His human nature experienced real temptation. Pastor Mike clarifies that Jesus, as the second Adam, fully felt the struggle and pain of resisting sin, yet remained perfectly righteous, accomplishing what no human before Him had done.Text ASK to 90398 to ask Pastor Mike a Bible Question.Text GOLIVE to 90398 to be notified when ASK Pastor Mike is LIVE.Find more ways to learn your Bible at https://focalpointministries.org/Have a Bible Question?

In this explanation, Pastor Mike from Focal Point Ministries responds to a question about Saul, the witch of Endor, and whether this passage proves anything about suicide and salvation. He clarifies that God allowed Samuel—not Abraham—to appear, explains the Old Testament concept of Sheol as the general realm of the dead, and shows why this passage does not teach that suicide determines a person’s eternal destiny. Pastor Mike affirms that salvation rests on justification, not the final act of a person’s life, and that biblical terms about “joining the dead” refer to entering the realm of the departed, not necessarily Paradise or judgment.Text ASK to 90398 to ask Pastor Mike a Bible Question.Text GOLIVE to 90398 to be notified when ASK Pastor Mike is LIVE.Find more ways to learn your Bible at https://focalpointministries.org/Have a Bible Question?
