  • About what Paul apprehended s3e180
    Do you ever feel like you are tryin to live the Christian life in vain? If so, then you are in good company. Not only Paul, but the Psalmist from long ago had feelings of inadequacy in relation to being in a right relationship to God. Do not worry, though. There is hope. God understands.

  • about why we shouldn’t celebrate Christmas s3e179

    Yes, I know, I JUST released an episode extolling our freedoms in Christ to celebrate Christmas. That being said, I wanted to present an episode for your consideration from a different perspective. Take a listen, I promise I am not suffering from dissociative identity disorder or anything of the like.

  • about celebrating Christmas s3e178

    This is my obligatory Cogitations episode about celebrating Christmas. This is such a divisive topic for a multiplicity of reasons. the Bible is very clear on the matter. It is not sin to celebrate holidays. What is sin is to condemn someone because they celebrate a holiday or because they do not. Take a listen to this episode which is from an article written by a brother who knocks it out of the park.

  • about when God considers someone married s3e176
    This question came up because of another question regarding a couple wanting to put on Christ in baptism who were currently living together unmarried. The question touches on what is referred to as common law marriages. Let's go to the Bible and reason together as to how to deal with this conundrum.

  • about swearing oaths s3e174

    Is it a sin to swear an oath? The short answer, it could be, or, at least, it could lead to sin. Please take a moment and listen to my Cogitations about this topic and let me know what you think.

  • about herding goats instead of sheep s3e173
    Recently I shared a post from my facebook memories. In this episode I am going to talk about that post and share some of my thoughts and observations from over the last 4 or so years since I made the original post.
     
    Here is the post: We've made models of pastoral care to feed people who aren't hungry." - James Mallon
    "I for one can admit that in the past I have focused on taking care of the people who honestly just don't care. They fill a seat every Sunday but they aren't convicted Christians.
    Maybe it's time we start to focus on the hungry ones and let the imposters get upset and leave sometimes (Fellow gospel preacher)."

  • about 4 questions concerning baptism s2e172
    This episode is dealing with 4 questions concerning baptism that have either been asked to me directly or in the We Talk Truth Group. I hope you enjoy. 
    Here are the questions we cover, do you have questions? 
     
    1) Do both the baptizer and one being baptized need to be in the water?
    2) Can a person baptize themselves?
    3) Must witness be present?
    4) Must we repent before baptism in order for our baptism to be valid/effective?
