We didn’t wait to have sex until we were married, and shocker… We didn’t burn in hell immediately! So why wait until marriage to have sex then? Bryan Sands joins us to talk about his new book “Everyone Loves Sex: So Why Wait?” Gone are the days of passing the roses around and shaming the youngins into not having sex. Enter in a fresh redemptive, restoring, gospel centered perspective from Bryan. We discuss our failures, our poor theologies, and how God redeems us and sex! We also say farewell to the Joe Louis Arena, beloved home of our Detroit Red Wings, as well as introduce a new series in May celebrating women and learning about feminism!

The law was designed by God to crush us, and that is exactly what it does. It crushes to the point of crying out to God, "I can't do this on my own, please send help!" Enter Jesus into the picture. Jesus perfectly completed, accomplished, and nailed the law to the cross forever ending the burden for mankind to live by it. So why have our churches put in place rules and contingencies on God's free grace? Why, when we realize those rules are wrong, do we continue to try and live by them, or worse, hold others to them?

Those are the questions pose to author and speaker Brandon Andress! We hope this humble attempt to tackle a paramount topic in the church finds you well, opens your eyes, and helps encourage you to experience more of God's creation!

Alex and Jason are excited to bring you their new project: Not Your Pastor's Pulpit! A podcast series where we ask you the listener to contribute your 5-10 minute Jesus-centric sermon, talk, or story! We wanted to find the perfect way to get our listeners involved and be an active part of the podcast, and we hope over time that, you'll not only contribute, but will be able to binge on 5-10 minute sermons from all over the world! Not just from pastors, but from the people! We also hope that this project will broaden our scope of who Jesus is and how God interacts with us through his son!

If you'd like to contribute a sermon, and we hope that you do, please visit https://notyourpastorspodcast.com/pulpit/. Here you will find our quick guidelines as well as sermons by others as we post them! Our pulpit is open for all. Regardless of your age, gender, orientation, race, or upbringing, we want to hear your “sermon” about Jesus. How has Jesus impacted you? What is it about Jesus that sets him apart? The pulpit is yours. Our hope is that through a common language of Jesus we can begin to tear down the walls that divide so many Christians today.
