  • The Bible Isn't About You
    How we read the Bible matters. If we read the Bible as though it’s about us and that it’s primary purpose it to teach us how to live more like Jesus, or to tell us how much God loves us, we’re reading it wrong. Yes, those are reasons for the Bible, but they aren’t primary reason. The Bible exists to glorify God by revealing to us the character and nature of God. This is important because it changes the way we should approach reading scripture - tune into this episode to find out how!
    Here is the scripture used in the podcast:
    John 14:15, James 1:22, James 4:14, 1 Peter 5:7, Ruth 1:16-17, Matthew 26:41, Matthew 12:38-42 , Hebrews 3:1-6

  • Modesty is a Heart Issue

    Often times when we think of modesty we think of the way that we dress, specifically, how women dress. However modesty is not just an issue for women and it's not just about the way that we dress. Modesty is an attitude that we are called to as believers. In this episode we discuss different aspects of modesty, along with how Jesus is the greatest example of it.

  • Righteous Anger

    Righteous anger for man is a manmade idea. No where in the bible does it call christians to righteous anger. We are not entitled to anger, of any kind, ever. Sounds like a crazy idea right?

In this episode we discuss points like, "Didn't Jesus get angry?" and "Shouldn't we be angry at sin?". Tune in to this episode to hear the answers to these questions and more!
