The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Why does a church leader need to be “beyond reproach”? How does that happen? Is retirement a biblical practice? Did God predestine or fate Judas to betray Jesus? Why was it better for Judas not to have been born? My father abused me, and I have forgiven him. But now I’m wondering if I need to visit him before he dies?

I have been diagnosed with congestive heart failure, yet I have peace in Jesus. Why do you think some believers don't experience peace? What is the meaning of 1 John 1:9? Do we need to confess our sins once or every time to be forgiven? What are your thoughts on "parental" forgiveness or "positional" forgiveness?

Is there a second blessing or second baptism of the Spirit? Do miracles still happen today? Are spiritual gifts still given by God today? What is a depraved mind? My wife is battling an eating disorder - do you have any thoughts? Why does Peter talk about a dog returning to its own vomit? Did Jesus warn against false Messiahs? What is blasphemy of the Spirit? Is it possible I committed the unforgivable sin? What are your thoughts on being slain in the Spirit? Can women serve as pastors? Am I supposed to be speaking in tongues?

1 Timothy 5 is an important passage with spiritual insights about charity, hospitality, and leadership in the church. Paul’s helping young Timothy avoid chaos and maintain focus within the congregation.

In this message, I share how these instructions point to what God esteems most, and what is at the center of healthy church. This passage will bring meaning and purpose to everything you do, and you’ll bear beautiful fruit as a result!

My ex-husband emotionally manipulated me and sexually abused me. How can I heal from the betrayal in that marriage? What is our relationship with the “moral law” (Ten Commandments)? Are people with a Law focus not saved? Where do we draw the line? I’m thinking about becoming a pastor. What made you want to serve as a pastor?

Can you explain “this mystery” of “Christ in you” in Colossians 1? If “all Scripture is inspired” and “useful for teaching”, then why aren’t we under the Law? Where is Satan – in Heaven? On Earth? Is Satan omnipresent? How can I overcome lust?

Should Bible teachers be using 2 Chronicles 7 to teach forgiveness based on ongoing repentance? What is the context of Paul’s Romans 7 struggle? How does God look at suicide? I suffer from depression and suicidal thoughts. Can you help?

Why did God tell Moses that Abraham did not know His name? What are your thoughts on the idea of “soul sleep”? Does someone who dies from suicide lose their salvation? Your ministry saved me from a life of depression- thank you!

Why did Jesus wash the disciples’ feet? Does it relate to our forgiveness? What grace book of yours is best for teenagers? Do you recommend a study Bible? Why does Mark 16 talk about drinking poison and being bitten by snakes? I am divorced and worried that if I remarry, I am an adulterer. What are your thoughts?
