Acts242: Continuing the Apostles' Teaching
In the early days of the church we read from the NASB95 translation "They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer." Sadly, within a short time so many false teachers cropped up that Paul had to write in 2 Timothy 4:3-4 "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths." The time Paul spoke of was then...but it also is now.
This podcast is a fresh presentation of the old, old truths presented by the apostles so long ago. Each episode is considered carefully, prayed about earnestly, and researched thoroughly before it is recorded. You will hear me quote trusted voices in the past throughout the episodes and sometimes bring on experts to discuss things in better detail.

Strangers in the Ballot Box: A Biblical Take on Christian Politics
Should a Christian engage in politics? I once talked with an individual and was sharing teaching from the Word of God and he cut off communication not because of me but because others shrugged their shoulders with Roe V Wade was overturned and said essentially - of the world, who cares. That kind of attitude, while I trust I was never so baldly uncaring as that, is common with some saints that I know, but my study of Charlie Kirk challenged my own somewhat non-committal stance on this topic. Was he right? Was it "incumbent" on a Christian to do all that we could to save this "beautiful country?" As I studied this I learned more and more that while I though Charlie was off into a ditch on this issue...there were some things that I was missing as well. This episode seeks to present an overview of my findings and to show you the listener a picture of how a Christian should navigate this difficult question.
