Last week, the U.S. struck Syria with tomahawk missiles in retaliation for the chemical attacks on its citizens.  We take a look at such acts through the lens of scriptures and attempt to answer questions such as:  What is Just War Theory?  What can we take from scripture pertaining to just war?  Does the bible justify the type of retaliation we saw from the U.S.?  As always, we appreciate all of your 5 star ratings on iTunes!  Please follow us on Facebook, Twitter (@twothieves), and at twothievespodcast.com.  We welcome your feedback at [email protected].  Thanks for listening!

After a 2 week detour, we continue our discussions on the family.  After speaking about gender roles, complementarianism, and homeschooling, this week we look at discipline and discipleship of children.  How should we understand and approach our children’s sinful nature?  What does scripture have to say directly on these topics?  What mistakes do we all make as Christian parents?  And finally, how is discipline with our children a picture of the Gospel?  Thank you all for listening!

As the culture becomes more secular and the state its God, homeschooling is becoming the education of choice for more and more Christian parents.  So how should Christians feel about the homeschool vs. public/private school debate?  Of course we can't answer the question for all parents, but in this episode we outline why we've chosen homeschool and why we believe it's supported by scripture.   Please rate us on iTunes!  Also check us out on Facebook, Twitter (@twothieves), and at www.twothievespodcast.com.  We welcome all feedback at [email protected].    Music: Intro: Mike B.
