What does it actually mean to be "drunk?" There was no .08 in the Bible, so what do we do with alcohol?!

On this episode, we address the question, "How Should Christians Approach Alcohol?"  We start by looking at the original meanings/definitions of "wine" and "strong drink" in the Bible.  Then we dive into what it means to be "drunk" and when drinking alcohol is acceptable.  Take a listen to see where we believe Scripture points us in regards to alcohol consumption.  Our hope is that as you listen, you grow in a knowledge of God and his Word as well as helping you to see this topic from a biblical framework.
