Governed by God

Today we interview Dr. Chris "Doc" Christensen about abortion and how he, as a Christian, approaches the issue at the hospital where he works. We tackle some of the big questions, such as how Christians should respond to such a controversial topic.

Today we answer another of our listener questions, addressing the topic of the church (whether there is just one "church" or many "churches").  We love receiving your questions, so please feel free to email us at [email protected].

In light of last week's episode on Christmas, today we dive into the very relevant topic of Jesus' humanity and deity. How is it that the Messiah needed to be both fully God and fully man? What does that mean for us as Christ-followers? Please join us as we discuss this key topic.

What is the meaning of Christmas and how should we approach the topic as Christians? Is it really about being good for goodness' sake? What about Santa and the concept of gift-giving? We touch on all of these topics, and more, on today's episode.

Branching off from our discussion of war, we now look at the concept of pacifism. Does the Bible prescribe, or require, Christians to be pacifists? Is it something that Christians should aspire to? What does it mean to our love our neighbor and how does that fit with the idea of self-defense or the defense of others? We cover all of this, and more, on today's episode.

Today we talk with Greg Anderson, graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary and Director of Member Care at Hilltown Baptist Church. Greg discusses how he came to faith as well as how God brought him through a period of great loss.

Is there such a thing as a justified, or necessary, war? Can Christians engage in war or be supportive of a war? If a "just" war exists, what would it look like? These are the questions that we tackle in today's episode.

Today we answer our first set of listener questions, covering topics such as Eastern Orthodoxy and the authority of God's word. We love receiving questions, so please feel free to email us at [email protected].

Politics and religion. The two topics that we are always supposed to avoid, right? Today we break that rule by talking about the role of government as ordained by God in the Bible. How much should the government be doing? What are its primary duties? We cover both of those questions and more on today's episode.

Is God sovereign over every aspect of our lives?  What does Jesus mean when He says that all authority has been given to Him?  Typically when we think about God's sovereignty we almost immediately think about how to understand evil and suffering in the world.  Today we focus on a different aspect of God's sovereignty, namely how He is the Lord and King over our work, recreation, worship, family, and relationships.  We also discuss the reality that even though there are different spheres in our lives, Jesus is Lord over all of them.
