Can you love someone without accepting their sins? Join us as we explore the delicate balance of love, acceptance, and discipline within the Christian community. We'll discuss how the church can welcome everyone while maintaining biblical truths, emphasizing compassion without endorsing sinful actions. Our conversation draws from scripture and seeks to clarify the importance of loving others—including our enemies—while standing firm against evil.
Have you ever felt the weight of your words? Inspired by Matthew 5:33-37, we reflect on the transformative power of honesty. Hear about a personal journey from taking pride in deceit to valuing simple, unembellished truth. We'll discuss why integrity is crucial, especially as adults, and how maintaining honesty, even in tough situations, can earn trust and respect. The pitfalls of invoking God's name in oaths and the true essence of honoring one's word are also covered.
What happens when faith meets fear? We share personal experiences and biblical insights on trusting God's will, even in times of distress. Learn about the human tendency to bargain with God and the importance of surrendering to His plan. We also tackle the concept of "turning the other cheek," clarifying its call for forgiveness and peacemaking rather than passivity. Finally, we discuss performing good works for God's glory, emphasizing genuine motives over seeking personal praise. Join us for an enlightening discussion that encourages faith, integrity, and compassion in every aspect of life.
We love hearing from our listeners whether it's criticism, advice, or just thoughts on the conversation we had. Find us or reach out to us here:
