Gospel Chats

For our 100th episode we wanted to talk about 100 different sheep. We wrestle with who the real Shepherd is, the Lord’s awareness of the 99 and the one, and how we really gather other sheep. 

How does the Jesus we read about in scripture become, as Nephi once wrote, “my Jesus”? In this episode we chat about bridging the gap between believing in Jesus Christ and really having an intimate connection to Him. 

Understanding the doctrine of the Light of Christ can and should change us. This universal influence gives life, light and law to the universe. 

The is a difference between worthiness and godliness. In this episode we chat about the danger in thinking some sins are not a big deal, and how we can more fully in live in a way where we deeply need Jesus Christ. 

Discomfort can feel like anything but a gift; but the Lord seems to do some of His best work in our discomfort. So how do we embrace the idea of discomfort in a humble and positive way? 

In this episode we discuss the gift of discernment and how it helps us detect hidden evil and hidden good within others and within ourselves. 

Words matter…a lot! In this episode we wrestle with the topics of vulgarity, gossip, and the spiritual gift of speaking with the tongue of angels. 

Must of us know that charity is extremely important, but struggle to show “the pure love of Christ” in all that we do. In this episode we explore charity as love we feel FROM Christ, love we develop FOR Christ, and then a gift we receive to love others LIKE Christ. When charity flows in that order everything starts to change. 

In this episode we wrestle with a question from the parable of the ten virgins: Do we know both “the bride” (Christ’s church) and “the bridegroom” (Jesus Christ)? Coming to know the Savior seems to be the major point of the parable, and the Church is meant to serve that purpose. 

Revelation is beautiful, and, revelation can be tricky. In this episode we chat about deceptive spirits, emotions being mistaken as revelation, and overinterpreting promptings. If we’ll ask the right questions, we can find our way through these pitfalls and into God’s light.
