    019: The Value of the Black Church (ft. Pastor Jerome Gay Jr.)

    In this episode, we will discuss the history of the Black Church. The other day I was in a conversation and the topic of the white church and black church was brought up. If as believers in Christ we are supposed to be one body why is Sunday still one of the most segregated hours of the week? What is the value of the Black church and how has it contributed to the faith at large?

    018: Is Trumpism Bad?

    In today’s episode, we will discuss: Is Trumpism really bad? Whether kingdoms or governments or employers or households, there are those who take pride in their country, their job, and/or their family.  But what happens when pride only supports my interest instead of others. Over Time, different societies have generated people who lord their prideful agendas over other people’s needs. Trumpism is an example of this same type of prideful behavior that puts one's own selfish agenda and ambition over the needs of other people.  We discuss the meaning of Trumpism, its pridefulness, and how believers should respond to its radical ideology.

    017: Christianity and the Republican Party

    In this episode, we will discuss Christianity and the Republican Party. We want to say we are not affiliated with any party nor affirm any party. We are disciples of Jesus Christ who have been transformed by the gospel. Today we will discuss historically how Christians have voted. Also, how we should not be defined by a political party but how we should be identified as believers of Jesus Christ. Lastly, we will discuss how we can have hope in God even when our candidate is not selected.  ResourcesKingdom Voting Series (Tony Evans)God is in Control (Blake Wilson) Why do White Christians Vote Republican and Black Christians Vote Democrat?SeculosityThe Black Church and the African American Experience

    016: Anger Management

    2020 has given us a multitude of mixed feelings: from Covid-19 to the loss of loved ones, from political agendas to social injustice. One emotion that has been prevalent during this time is anger. Anger can be expressed and used in many different ways whether for our benefit or for our demise. In this episode, we will explore the meaning of anger, its dilemma between the righteous/unrighteous, its potential root cause, and how it should be harnessed to promote forgiveness in order to release the pain that dwells inside of all of us.

    014: Sick of Being Lonely

    Welcome back to Truth Serum Podcast, a podcast of Crossover Bible Fellowship. This our 2nd season: The Aftermath. This season we are excited to discuss several topics that are impacting us as a result of Coronavirus. Including one of my favorites, emotions. Emotions are like tools that God gives us to live our lives more fully. We can choose to face our emotions, entrust them to God and experience the gifts they bring (or, we can deny our feelings and experience the impairment of our feelings) Specifically we are going to discuss loneliness.
