BraemarCast: The Podcast of Braemar Baptist Church

Pastor Kent is back this week as we continue in our sermon series "Respectable Sins." Does it drive you crazy when someone has something that is, at least in your eyes, better than what you have? Or are you constantly worried about someone else taking a treasured possession or relationship away from you? This week we'll be looking at how the sins of envy and jealousy can poison our lives and rob us of gratitude, perspective and healthy relationships with God and others.

It's a joy to welcome our guest speaker Dennis Shierman, Western Canada Representative with Canadian Baptist Ministries, as he brings an update on international mission initiatives of our denomination.

Pastor Kent is continuing in our series "Respectable Sins" as we consider the sin of Judgmentalism. "Don't judge me!" Is that your immediate reaction or response when you feel disapproval or criticism from someone else? But do you extend the same courtesy to other people? Or do you criticize, point out people's faults, or measure them against your own potentially unrealistic expectations? To learn more about us visit www.braemarbaptist.com

What makes your blood boil...causes you to lose your cool...or finally blow your top?

Does waiting drive you crazy? Do you get annoyed when other people don't quickly respond to your needs? Do other drivers bug you? How about waiting in line...anywhere!?

It's fitting that as Pastor Kent continues in our sermon series "Respectable Sins," it's Thanksgiving weekend and we're focusing on the sin of Selfishness.

Join us as we consider how to identify selfishness in our lives and choose a better path. To learn more about us, visit www.braemarbaptist.com

Some churches and Christians seem to avoid important topics altogether, so they don't make people uncomfortable, but that's not usually the best approach. What is "sin"? Is it really that big a deal?
