Each day on stream we take time to go through a Verse of the Day, explain its meaning, and find an application. This verse is a very encouraging one on the surface, but what does it mean, really?

What does it mean that Jesus had the "fullness of God" and why is that such a big deal to Christians? What does it mean that Jesus is Preeminent? Join in as XtianNinja (Pastor Al) talks through Colossians 1:15-20 and answers those questions.

Sometimes God has the reputation of being angry all the time - and a lot of people who grew up in the church were told that when they do something wrong God is disappointed and will come down on them hard if they don't behave. Is that true?

Sometimes life throws stuff at us that we just can't handle. Illness, relationship issues, responsibilities, big needs, cause all of us to shrink back and ask ourselves, "Why would God bring this into my life?". There are a lot of people who have faced the same situation. What are we to do?

Ex-Fundie Diaries released a video outlining how the AWANA Clubs program isn't just a fun church group, but a nefarious "Christian Nationalist Child Indoctrination Cult". Is she right? What defines a cult? What's up with all the weird stuff that goes on at AWANA anyway? XtianNinja, a pastor and former AWANA leader (and clubber) walks through her video step-by-step explaining, refuting, and clarifying what's actually going on.  *I left it as a very sparsely edited VOD so that folks could track what I'm saying and (hopefully) recognize it comes from a place of love.

If you've ever asked, "Do good people go to heaven?", give this a listen. XtianNinja talks through the thought process we see in Romans 1-3 and explains why understanding it is critical to understanding what Christians call "salvation".

Everyone in the world wants "peace" - but when we try to make it ourselves it doesn't seem to work very well or last very long. How does the peace that Jesus promises us in the Bible differ from the peace we keep trying to make for ourselves?

Most of the time we believe the thoughts that bounce around our heads, thinking that our beliefs, opinions, perspectives, and ideas are right and best. Mature people know that's not true and have realized that we really can't trust our own hearts and minds.

We've been thinking and talking about this for months now, but it seems to be time to start making this idea become a reality. If you're tired of dead discords and pointless partnerships, give this a watch and then come chat about it with us. You can help us build the greatest Christian Creator Network on the internet!

Jesus said that if you've met poor, sick, imprisoned, or hungry people, then "as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me." (Matt 25:40)  And how you reacted to those people shows a lot about your heart and your faith.
