The 3 Questions Podcast

1. The Lord’s Supper: does it have to be fruit of the vine and unleavened bread? Does it have to be in the context of a local church?

2. What are the bare minimum requirements for a local gathering to be considered a New Testament church? 

3. Can a Christian go to war if we are called to love our neighbor? 

3 Questions is a weekly podcast from Southern Hills Baptist Church. Each week our ministers will answer three questions submitted by the congregation.

1. Is it significant that Jesus called Peter “Simon” when he restored him in John’s gospel? (submitted by a dad on behalf of his 5th grade daughter)

2. In what way is the author of salvation “perfected” through sufferings in Hebrews 2:10?

3. Why did Jesus refer to himself as the “Son of Man”?

3 Questions is a weekly podcast from Southern Hills Baptist Church. Each week our ministers will answer three questions submitted by the congregation.

1. What kind of work are we allowed to do on the Sabbath? In other words, exactly what is scripture telling us when it says to keep the Sabbath holy?

2. I hear a lot about not focusing on end times even though there are lots of podcasts and so forth that like to discuss the second coming. What is the reason for the book of Revelation? What should the main takeaway from it be if we are not to be focusing on the general description of end times?

3. Is it ok for me to date a non-Christian?

3 Questions is a weekly podcast from Southern Hills Baptist Church. Each week our ministers will answer three questions submitted by the congregation.

1. I know this is random but I’m a bit confused. I know prophets are like John, David, Joshua, Moses, and they were prophets for God. In Matthew 21 verse 11 it says, “And the crowds said, “This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.” What does that mean, like Jesus is a prophet for God?

2. Would someone be a stumbling block if they go to a bar and dance?

3. What are your views on drinking?

3 Questions is a weekly podcast from Southern Hills Baptist Church. Each week our ministers will answer three questions submitted by the congregation.

1. Psalm 56:8 points out there are a few "heavenly" books/scrolls referenced throughout the Bible that seem to convey God is keeping written record of various things. God has perfect and complete memory so who is the the intended reader? Us?

2. To Pastor Doug: on Easter Sunday you said that Mary’s changed life was evidence that Jesus is alive. How then do we respond to Muslims, Mormons, etc., who also claim that their changed lives are evidence that their god is real (alive).

3. What does it mean to guard your heart in a dating relationship? Is it a biblical concept?

3 Questions is a weekly podcast from Southern Hills Baptist Church. Each week our ministers will answer three questions submitted by the congregation.

1. In Romans 8:10-11, Paul is talking about how we are born again and he says that "if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you...", so is he saying that the Holy Spirit part of the Trinity raised Jesus like he will raise us or did Jesus raise himself or God raise his son?

2. In John 15:4 Jesus says that we cannot “bear fruit” unless we abide in him. How does this square with the fact that many non-Christians do good things—isn’t that bearing fruit?

3. How can I be careful as a witness (especially to someone younger than me) so that the person doesn’t just “yes” they will trust in Jesus in order to please me?
