What happens when a message sounds right but the text says otherwise? In this episode, we look to Acts 17 and the Bereans’ example of testing every teaching against Scripture. Learn how to read in context, anchor unclear ideas to clear passages, and grow discernment without drifting into cynicism. If you want a faith that’s both humble and confident, this conversation will help you become a responsible steward of what you hear.
