What Qualifies as Swearing and Taking the Lord's Name in Vain?
What is taking God's name in vain? Do words that are merely vulgar qualify as swearing? And, why is it that people curse? This Saturday on Up For Debate, Julie Roys will explore what it means to violate the third commandment – and guidelines Christians should use to guard their speech. Joining her is Matt Carter, member of a Christian band and podcast that sometimes uses cursing as a means of being real and honest. Challenging his perspective is Jack Wellman, a pastor and author who says swearing should be a no-brainer for Christians. And, adding some research and background on the topic will be Dr. Timothy Jay, who’s written three books on the topic. Listen and join the discussion this Saturday at 11 a.m. Central Time on Up for Debate!
