In John 17, Jesus prayed to the Father, requesting He help all Christians to be one as They are one. The Church is meant to be united in love and truth, and be a testament of the gospel to the world. However, many of the issues we bear inside our communities hinder this from happening. It's time we search our own hearts.

The Christian walk is not easy. It is filled with spiritual warfare, trials and tribulations, and sacrifices. If you are anything like me, you've sometimes found yourself growing envious of unbelievers who don't deal with the convictions and sacrifices you deal with on a daily basis. How should we feel about this?

Note: Sorry, no YouTube video today because of some technical difficulties I've been dealing with :/

I see that a lot of us can get caught up trying to make ourselves holy for God's approval. Many of us are tortured by the pressure of trying to sanctify ourselves, as if we ever had the power to. One thing we all must acknowledge is that if we could purify ourselves, we wouldn't need a Savior.

Phil 4:13 is one of the most famous verses in the Bible. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Is this a verse meant to rally us about defeating foes and trampling over obstacles? Or is it a message to those who find themselves wandering about the stressful ups and downs of life? Let's break it down.

Our suffering often tempts us to think God hates us, left us or disapproves of us. However, the Scripture tells us that even we who have peace with Him through Christ will experience tribulations. It's in these trying times we are given the opportunity to let God's glory shine through us.

Galatians 6:1 instructs us to restore our brethren who've been overtaken by sin with a spirit of gentleness. However, it seems a lot of Christian critique tend to come from a place of resentment and pride. In this episode, we all need to look inwardly and ask ourselves the question: When we are correcting our brothers and sisters in the Lord, are we doing so with the intent to restore them or shame them?

Sinful habits die hard. Sometimes we are tempted to lose hope for our deliverance, but we must hang on, and understand the power of the Holy Spirit that dwells inside of us. You cannot save yourself from sin, but I know someone who can rescue you.

In 2023, there are too many false teachers and doctrines to keep track of. Nowadays it's not enough that someone disagrees with the Bible, but people even go as far to misconstrue its contents to justify their world views. Today we set a few things straight. Additionally, I want to talk about homosexuality and homophobia. It's a past due conversation on this podcast. This is a huge topic in our generation, so I pray you're able to listen with an open heart and ears. Let's open the Bible and get to work.

What are the first words that come to mind when you think about King David in the Bible? Are they strong, leader, brave? That might be the idea we get from 1 & 2 Samuel, but what about Psalm 7, 13 or 18 when he's crying and praying for deliverance? How can someone so strong, be so dependent at the same time?
