    242. Are Catechisms Biblical?

    Some denominations have relied on catechisms heavily throughout their history, but what exactly are they? Are they something modern churches should be using, or something that is better to leave in the past? In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question around the nature of catechisms. We look through some of the history of catechisms, specifically some of the Baptist ones, and look at when things shifted away from them and whether that was a good or bad thing. We then wrap up by talking about what modern catechisms ought to look like to be most helpful for believers today!

    There are many universal human rights that have been established over the course of history, but which ones does the Bible support? Where is the basis for human rights come from anyways? In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question that deals with where human rights come from and the main universal rights that humans have from God's perspective.

    Do You Go To Hell If You Commit Suicide? (Rewind)

    This is a rewind episode. Derek was out sick this week, so we have a throwback episode for you back from April 11, 2022. Is committing suicide unforgivable? What happens to Christians who commit suicide? If a loved one has taken their own life, do we have any hope that they will be in heaven? On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a very heavy topic that has had an impact on many people: suicide. We know that all sins are forgivable, but what about one where there is no opportunity to ask forgiveness after the fact? We walk through what the Scripture has to say about the value of life and different cases of suicide in Scripture. Finally, we look at what exactly condemns us to Hell and how we are saved from that and where suicide falls into the mix. We hope that you will be encouraged after listening and would grow your biblical knowledge as well as gain a better understanding of God.

There are so many debates over passages of Scripture, so how can we know which one is right?

    238. Why Would God Move David To Take A Census Then Call It Sin?

    God couldn't possibly instruct someone to sin, right? How do we make sense of a confusing passage in 2 Samuel that seems to indicate this? In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question on a specific passage of Scripture to explain why David was in sin while instructing a census to be taken. We dig through who influenced this (hint: it likely isn't God), David's potential motives in this, and how he missed one big part of God's command around taking a census to bright light to this question. We also throw out a relatable application for us today!

    We've seen all sorts of protests around our country recently, but are any of them biblically justifiable? Are they legal? Are they actually peaceful? In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question on whether or not Christians should participate in peaceful protests. We look through the definition of a peaceful (and legal) protest, biblical examples of protests, and questions you should ask yourself before joining in on any kind of protest.

    236. I've Lost Faith In The Institutional Church...Where Do I Go From Here?

    Most people have experienced some church hurt, sometimes to the point of losing faith in what the church even is or what it stands for. Some feel isolated and confused because church is supposed to be safe. What should we do when these things happen? In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question on how to respond when faith has been lost in the institutional church, or even just institutions in general. We talk through all of the God ordained institutions mentioned in Scripture, examples of corruption in those institutions throughout history, and what a person's responsibility and response should be in these kinds of hurtful situations. Our hope is that if you have church hurt and are listening, that you would find hope in the Word of God's instruction to rebuild trust in Jesus and follow His direction for the Church!
