  • 681: What if I’m Single, and I Don’t Want to Be?

    The number of unmarried people in our world continues to rise - steadily increasing since the 1970's. More and more young people find themselves single, and seemingly unable to get married. What are the contributors to this phenomenon, and how can the church speak into this issue? 

    Does the church add to the problem? Does the help given actually just hurt? How can a single person get married? The regulars weigh in on this topic.

  • 679: The Main Character Problem Nobody in Church Talks About

    The world often says we should live our lives as if we are the main character in our story - but is this a biblical way of doing things? Are we sabotaging what God has for us, by insisting things play out with us at the center?

    Ben and David address this prevalent phenomenon that we see playing out, not only outside of church, but inside of it too.
