Shows Main Idea – During Rick's conference at FaithPoint Church in Longmont, Colorado, there was a question and answer session in which Lucia participated, too. They answered many questions that were written during the meetings as well as those who asked at the Q&A. Rick was not able to answer all the questions due to not having enough time, so he's answering the remainder in this podcast: what is pangender, what if someone does not forgive, and where does the Bible say transgender is a sin?

How do your attitudes, words, and actions move people? Our behavior motivates people in one direction or the other. We are pushing people toward Christ or away from Him. We’re not responsible for their choices, but we are vital secondary actors who must always think about how we can cooperate with the Lord in His good work in peoples’ lives.

Shows Main Idea – When someone shares with you a personal struggle, you want to help them think through the internal tensions that have created the external outcomes. The source of our personal struggles finds its root in our hearts. The first course of action is to identify these heart controllers so we know what to put off and how to renew our minds. Rick Thomas does a brilliant job leading you through these issues in this webinar, The Target of Change.

The sin that nobody wants to talk about is our penchant for pornography. If you want to silence a small group setting, bring up the topic of porn. It's uncomfortable because so many of our friends are addicted to it, and for many of us, sexual discussions are intimately personal. Regardless, we must talk about this silent spiritual killer.

Shows Main Idea – Conflict is inevitable. When you put two or more people together and make decisions, there will be disagreement. So how do you work through it? What if one of them sins?

And do you have any updates on the International Association of Biblical Counselors (IABC) debacle from 2018? Understanding counseling and counseling movements are vital because those who practice counseling are at the highest end of soul care.

Shows Main Idea – All of our sin patterns are rooted in our functional theology, at the level of our hearts, rather than in the behavioral patterns of our perceived problems. The process of change begins when you can determine the actual ruling motive of the heart. Our hearts generate our problems, so identifying the war within brings us to the starting place in the discipleship/change process.
