Jack from Grand Rapids, Michigan called in to ask about this challenging New Testament passage:

“For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband.” (1 Corinthians 7:14)

Is a husband automatically saved because of his wife’s faith? Or vice versa? This was Jack’s question, and in this episode, I address this difficult passage to get at the heart of the Gospel message and the Apostle Paul’s true meaning here.

Enjoy!

Leonard called to ask about this challenging passage in Romans:

“What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction?” (Romans 9:22)

Is this just a hypothetical? Who are the “vessels of wrath”? Does Romans 9 somehow support the idea of an irresistible calling by God to salvation for select individuals? Do others have no hope?

In this episode, I address Leonard’s concerns and discuss the true meaning of Romans 9 in context. So if you have ever wondered about this passage, I hope this short clip is both encouraging and clarifying!

Have you ever been told you need to “surrender” to become more useful to God? To some of us, “surrender” almost sounds like we’re criminals or in an opposing army, right?

It’s time to challenge this made-up jargon and see it for what it is – unhealthy and sometimes even abusive. The New Testament never mentions surrendering to God. Instead, we simply present ourselves and our bodies to Him. Yes, We’re on the same team!

Plus, God isn’t tearing you down to make you more useful; He’s building you up in Christ! You’re His child, and you don’t need to be “crushed” or be more “sold out” to express Jesus.

Check out this episode and discover the healthy place you can enjoy in God’s family and what it means to be secure and complete in Christ!

Romans 12:2 describes a transformation that occurs in our lives as our minds are renewed:

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
Romans 12:2

So how does this “mind renewal” actually happen? Matt called in to our radio program to ask about the role of faith and to understand this process of mind renewal better.

Here’s what I shared with Matt. Enjoy!

Chris is frustrated with his own performance. Chris knows he is a believer, but he’s just tired of sinning.

So he called in to our radio program to ask about his ongoing struggle and the way forward.

In this episode, I share with Chris two powerful truths that will help him (and all of us!) move forward in maturity.

There’s a false idea in the religious world that a Christian is guaranteed health and wealth. Have you ever heard this prosperity gospel pitch, where God’s a divine slot machine, and with enough faith, you hit the jackpot?

To put it simply, that’s not the Gospel. Unlocking some secret potential, cushier circumstances, or easier living through more faith isn’t found in the New Testament.

In this episode, I dive into what the real Gospel says about contentment and how it contrasts with these distracting messages. Click through to watch and discover why Jesus is your true source of strength, regardless of your circumstances!

“Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication.”
Ephesians 6:18

“building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit.” Jude 1:20

Pray in the Spirit? What does that mean? How do we do it?

This was Jonathan’s question when he called in to our radio broadcast.

In this episode I discuss the true meaning of “praying in the Spirit.”

Enjoy!

Helen was taught that she no longer needs mind renewal because she has the mind of Christ.

We do have the mind of Christ. But the Bible also tells us that our mind is constantly being renewed. So how do these two ideas fit together?

In this episode, I address Helen’s confusion and clarify what’s going on as we learn and grow in Christ.

Everyone loves to hear that God is gracious and kind, but there’s so much more to grace than feel-good generalities. Ever wondered how to explain what makes God’s grace and the New Covenant so incredible?

Warning: Diving deeper into the love and grace of God can ruffle some feathers. Grace can feel dangerous – even offensive – to some. But when we grasp our once-for-all forgiveness, freedom from the Law (yes, even the Ten Commandments!), and trust Jesus for our morality, grace becomes more than just a buzzword. It’s a life-changing reality!

Check out this episode and learn more about a grace that truly matters!

If Old Testament worshipers had the benefit of a once-for-all sacrifice, they would have no longer had consciousness of their sins:

”Otherwise, would [the sacrifices] not have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have had consciousness of sins?” —Hebrews 10:2

Robert called in to ask what it means to not have consciousness of sins and how we get to that place. In this episode, I share my thoughts.
