    The Extra Mile - 2025 Question Recap

    Send us a text It’s been an outstanding year with great guests and excellent perspectives on what it means to go the extra mile for others.  Matthew 5:41 describes instruction from Jesus about this principle. If any would force you to go with them a mile, go with them two. Not begrudgingly, but with the mindset that you were placed in that situation to make a change. It takes perspective of heavenly thinking to take that first step.  The Bible does not promise we won’t suffer in this world. In fact, it guarantees we will suffer for our faith. Rejoice in the Lord through our sufferings, because this world has already been overcome by Jesus. That perspective and faith causes action toward others, to help them out of darkness, to break down barriers, to cause others to pause and question what’s going on.  Salvation is open to all, for those who have ears to hear and eyes to see. Behold, Jesus stands at the door and knocks. Will you open the door of your heart to Him? ===== Searching for answers to life’s questions? Need help finding a church? Drop us a line.

    The Rise of Christian Media

    Send us a text Audio Note: One of our microphones has a slight echo in this episode. Thanks for bearing with us—despite the technical hiccup, the conversation is strong and we believe it’s worth sharing. Christian and Biblically inspired media is on the rise, offering new ways to share faith and spark spiritual conversations. But is it actually helping people grow, or becoming a substitute for real Bible study and discipleship? In this episode, we explore the strengths and shortcomings of this trend and what role Christian media should—and shouldn’t—play in evangelism today. Does Christian media serve as a replacement for searching the scriptures for you? Does the media you consume inspire you to pursue a perishable wreath, or the everlasting crown of life? Give us your answers in the comments below.  ===== Searching for answers to life’s questions? Need help finding a church? Drop us a line.

    Jesus Believes in Karma?

    Send us a text There’s a difference between consequence and karma. What does the Bible say about karma, and did Jesus believe in this concept? Looking at Job there is a concept that is explored about judgement, consequence, karma, and punishment in our experience. There is correction that God offers to the friends of Job and their opinion of how God operates. There is little cut and dry understanding to God’s judgement. It is the tendency of man to reduce God to our level.  Works based salvation is something that can corrupt our understanding of our own role in our experience after this life. The. Christian understand that we need God. We can’t self help our way to the next life. We can self help our way to be a better person! Eternal consequences rely on what Jesus did for us.  ===== Searching for answers to life’s questions? Need help finding a church? Drop us a line.

    God Will Always Listen to Your Prayers

    Send us a text An encouraging passage is when Saul of Tarsus, the great persecutor of the early church, was praying continually to God. Guilty of doing wrong to Jesus, Saul is not in a good state with his salvation. Ananias is told that God is listening to the continuous prayer of Saul.  What does that mean for those who are searching and trying to understand Jesus and God? If you are inspired to speak to God, that channel is always open. This should be encouraging to anyone everywhere, that their prayers will be heard.  To seek God earnestly, means He will move to open that door you are knocking on. The Bible says Jesus is standing at the door and knocks for you to open it to Him. Will you open that door to Him? ===== Searching for answers to life’s questions? Need help finding a church?
