What's Holding Christians Back by Dr. Michael G. Daniels

Should black people be doing better under Trump due to his policies for business? Dr. Daniels and CB discuss the reality of being a black businessman in America. Getting loans, keeping the money in the community, using LLCs, and how to use taxes to your advantage is just the tip of the iceberg of this great conversation. Be sure to share this important episode.

Why do people "hate" on one another? Dr. Daniels and CB have a discussion about how to combat hating and how people in the bible dealt with the envious people in their lives. Family, friends, and people who we have never met may share an opinion about us or something we are doing to better ourselves, but its up to stay focused on our goals.

Pastor Daniels brings the discussion of whether people want a pastor or pimp? The question of why televangelist change from teaching the gospel to selling prosperity? CB asks Dr. Daniels the tough questions about what we can do as churchgoers (or church watchers)to change the direction of the church if it's headed the wrong way? Do we dare ask where the money that is being sent in is going?

Let's talk about sex..... Dr. Daniels and CB Baker talk about things some people consider taboo when it comes to discussing sex and the bible. Dr. Daniels explains how Marriage is the only way to be intimate with your spouse. That intimacy only comes with being open and vulnerable with your spouse. (Scriptures Covered; Leviticus 18 & 20, Songs of Soloman 1 & 3, and Hebrews 13:4)

The new NetFlix Movie "Come Sunday" about Bishop Carlton Pearson's fall in the church due to his belief in there not being a Hell has re-kindled debate about who Jesus's sacrifice actually covers. Does Jesus sacrifice cover everybody (even atheist) or just people who believe Jesus is the lord and savior? Dr. Daniels answers the ultimate question while also giving some insight about who we might be on this Earth. This is an episode you do not want to miss.

When did going to Church on Sunday become an "option" in the black community? Did this have an adverse effect on the number of men going to church as adults? Dr. Daniels gives insights into the role that we have as parents to encourage our children to come to church.

Do you ever wonder why people in the Bible are often punished or corrected by God for disobeying his set laws but people of today seem to get away with almost everything under the sun? Dr. Daniels explains the way God punishes people the same way he did in "biblical times". We just don't say it was God.

In Part 2 the discussion dives into understanding the Sabbath; Is it Saturday or Sunday? Also we talk about tithing and the negativity surrounding minority churches. Does negative potrayal of Pastors in the media make it hard for current pastors to run a successful church?
These questions and more are discussed indepth with great insight of how the Old Testament and the New Testament work hand and hand.

Dr. Daniels and CB dicuss the differences in the Old Testament and the New Testament. You can not completely understand the New Testament without having a grasp of the Old Testament. Dr. Daniels explains that one of the reasons the Old Testament isn't mentioned much in the New Testament is due to the audience it was written for already had knowlege of the Old Testament.
