If we are honest with ourselves, at times, it is hard to be a good disciple. A disciple is simply a learner, and we should always be learning. No matter where you are on the theological ladder you can always be learning because you are commanded to make other learners (disciples). Phillip Powers: Should we read the Old Testament today?

There has been a lot of talk about the government lately. They are either too invasive, or take too much money from the American people.

It seems that all of the world focused their attention on the recent trial of Amber Heard and Johnny Depp. For days, people tuned in to hear the recount of the couples lives. Recently, the verdict was in. Johnny Depp seemed to win the defamation claim, but it was Amber Heards statement afterward that was the springboard to this episode. Not only did the trial heard round the world happen.

During this trial the Southern Baptist Convention released a nearly 300 page document detailing sexual and physical abuse allegations against pastors and Church leaders. How are we to respond to women that make physical/sexual abuse allegations? How are we to respond to men that make the same type of allegations?

I believe the Bible helps us understand how to handle this type of situation. I would love to hear your comments.

Do you agree or disagree?

There is a problem, and it starts with men, because men are a problem. Our culture is full of men who do not act like men. This was brought to my attention after attending an even recently. The lack of Godly men in our culture is not only sad, it's sickening.

We need men to be men. We need Christian men to be men, to act like men, and take care of their God given duties as men, and as Christians.

On this episode I reflect on our culture full of men that act like children and the need for men to grow up not more than ever.
