In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Dave Jenkins addresses a pressing issue in the digital age: How should Christians evaluate teachers and ministries online? With unprecedented access to sermons, podcasts, and Christian influencers, believers must practice biblical discernment. Scripture commands us not to believe every spirit but to test what we hear (1 John 4:1). Jesus also warns that false prophets are known by their fruit (Matthew 7:15–20). In this episode, Dave outlines four biblical criteria for evaluating online teachers: • Test their doctrine against the Word of God • Examine their fruit and character • Look for accountability and transparency • Discern their motives and goals Faithfulness, not popularity, determines credibility. Online teaching can be helpful, but it is a supplement—not your shepherd. The Word of God remains the standard. Stay grounded in Scripture and anchored in Christ.
