The majority of us seem to have no real issue accepting acknowledgment and praise for our strengths. However, a majority of us also seem to not be so readily accepting of the criticism and corrections of our weaknesses. It is however, the awareness and acceptance of our weaknesses that adds to our strength, if we allow it.

The calling to speak for the Lord is not a small thing. Nor is it (as we have attempted to make it) a definable thing within the perimeters of any specific religion. Speaking for God can only be done when speaking from the Word of God and by the power of God. The duty is ours, the method and results are His.

I have a very close friend who once said - “the reason Christians are having an identity crisis, is because they were never meant to have one (an identity outside of Christ, that is).” This episode is about that the fact that the help of His countenance (Ps.42:5) is the health of my countenance (Ps.42:11). Might is be that we are not healthy Christians, because we are not accepting the help of Christ?

In many situations, we find ourselves acting much too quickly on things we should be taking our time on, and procrastinating or taking way too much time on things we should be moving swiftly on. The Bible does have a little bit to say about what proper behavior should look like concerning swift and slow action.

I'm sure you've heard a version of the phrase- Hard Men make Good Times, Good Times make Soft Men, Soft Men make Bad Times, Bad Times make Hard Men... and so the cycle continues. What may not be realized, is that this same cycle can play itself out in the course of one man's life. You can succeed and you can fail, but you can find grace and succeed again. Which is what episode #96 is all about.

Many times, in trying situations, we tend to seek the comfort which we've been conditioned by society to think will be helpful to us. However, many times the "comfort" we seek in all reality just introduces a different form of crisis. The worth is in the work, not the reward, and that's what this episode is all about - the value of having purpose over comfort.

Many times in the process of gathering information to make good decisions, we analyze what works and try to recreate it. However in many instances, if we took the time to learn what not to do from situations that went sideways, we might learn more quickly and throughly how to have a more effective outcome.

The question of whether or not God is a fair God is often one of the most asked questions that I encounter when talking with people who are considering Christianity. In this episode, my desire is to first show the Biblical Doctrine that God is absolutely fair, but then perhaps more importantly, to show from the Bible WHY He is fair. I hope you enjoy episode #93!

At times if we're not careful, we tend to use Biblical phrases for secular purposes. The term "a good man", is objectively defined by the Word of God, but we may have swapped out that definition for a more subjective one in keeping with our own opinions. This episode is about what it means to be a good man, specifically from the objective doctrine of God's Word. Episode #92 is Part 2 of 2.
