As we wrap up our episodes on church life, this one is on why we sing as a body. In this episode, we dive into both "why" we sing and "how" we sing biblically as Christians. We believe that the Bible emphatically commands that we sing. We aim to show through Scripture how the life of a Christian is one filled with heart-felt singing - in both the good times and the bad!

Church discipline is one of those taboo topics. We believe that Christians should feel differently. What if we told you that church discipline was actually there to benefit us? What if we told you that being being gently rebuked by a loving brother or sister in Christ was the way that Jesus intended it to be? We believe all this and more. Grab a Bible and follow along. This one is sensitive.

Have you ever wondered why we preach at church? Have you ever wondered if we should preach at church? Often times, people will speak out against certain pastors and preachers and not tell you why these teachers are dangerous. Normally, improper teaching stems from an improper hermeneutic which stems from a faulty ecclesiastical approach. In this episode, we will try and show you why we avoid teachers like Steven Furtick. 

In Psalms 139, David asks the Lord to search his heart and search for any grievous way in him. David understood that sometimes we are unaware of some of the sins that we might be committing. Often times, we focus on the big ones - sex, adultery, drunkenness, etc. But sometimes, the greater danger lies within the sins that are easily overlooked. In this episode, we will discuss some of the sins that the Holy Spirit has revealed in our own lives that might be overlooked. 

Recently, hell has been considered a nonessential doctrine for the Christian. It is understandable but to reject hell is to reject orthodox Christianity. In this episode, we go through the most potent Scriptures in favor of an Eternal Conscious Torment Hell (the orthodox view) and we discuss briefly why we can not align with Annihilationism or Limited Conscious Torment. Soli Deo Gloria.

As the trend of theological liberalism continues to rise, orthodox views like literal Adam are being thrown out and replaced with views that are more consistent with modern constructs of man (i.e. evolution). In this episode, we aim to show that the Bible presents Adam as literal and so should we if we want to have a consistent hermeneutic as we read and interpret the Scriptures.

We believe that proper doxology has to start with proper theology. In this episode, we dive into one of the fundamental tenants of understanding theology - the nature of man. There seems to be a lot of confusion in the world over this topic. Are we good? Are we bad? Through Scripture and an overarching narrative of Scripture, we prove that man is innately hopeless and in need of a Savior. Join us as we begin to look at the nature of humanity. 

Last week, we began our two-part series of our breakdown of Bethel Church's faulty view of the sovereignty of God. In this episode, we will conclude our analysis and offer a very brief description of our view of sovereignty. Net week we will begin our plunge into core theological waters. First up: the Nature of Man. Are we good? Are we bad? Tune in next Friday to find out what the Scripture says.
