Our culture has a lot of backwards ways of viewing work. Whether that's being as lazy as we can be without getting fired, or being a workaholic who never sees his family. But, how should the Christian view work? Fortunately, God's word has a lot to say about this topic and I am going to break that down in this episode.

Most Christians know it is important to defend their faith, but when the time comes to actually do it, many of us feel lost. We don't have a good grasp on what we believe or why we believe it. And what we do know, we don't know how to communicate clearly and effectively... so we fall apart. In this episode, after I explain the importance of defending your faith, I am going to give you some basic principles to take into any conversation with an unbeliever.

A lot of Christians today pick a church like they pick a new pair of jeans. Whichever is the most comfortable and makes them feel good about themselves. That's the one they go with. This is not a good way to pick a church! We must have a more biblical approach to finding a church. Hopefully this episode can help with that.

Over the past year it has become obvious that many professing Christians do not think it is important to go to Church. In this episode, I do my best to make a Biblical case for why Church is an absolute necessity for anyone who calls themself a Christian.

As Christians we are called to "be fruitful and multiply". In this episode I break down how we are currently failing at this and I give Biblical reasoning for why we should be having kids.

If there's one thing that's been revealed in the past year, it's that our culture (including the church) has a huge fear of man problem. In this episode, I address the issue head on and talk about the Bible's solution to the problem.

In recent years The Enneagram has exploded as one of the most popular "personal growth" tools. Even among Christians. In this episode I talk about what it is, where it came from, and why I no longer think it is a tool Christians should use.

Everyone's A Theologian - RC Sproul

We live in a world that is obsessed with love. We want to "find love", be "in love", be "loving", we say "love is love". But what does God have to say about this topic? What does it look like to love others the way He subscribes?

Over the past year, I've heard a lot of people say things like, "I just don't know what to believe..." And if I'm being honest, I have felt that way too quite a bit. But I don't think this state of not knowing what is true is a state we have to stay in. We can discern what is true. That's what this episode is about.
