Thank you for joining me on the first episode of the Proverbs 18:13 podcast. 

In today’s episode, we will discuss the mission and purpose of this podcast ministry. 

How do we know that we are in the truth unless we 1st understand the entire argument? And 2nd unless we make sure that there isn’t a better biblical explanation.  Most Christians have only heard 1 side of any argument/teaching. And quite often if they do hear another one it’s usually not actually what is believed or taught by the people who have an opposing view or opinion. Most often that’s because the ones teaching haven’t heard from the people of the opposing view, they heard from another person with the same opinion as them. This unfortunately causes unwarranted and unnecessary division. In my opinion, the church should never be divided over non-essential doctrinal issues.
