    DISCERNMENT - is what they are saying REALLY Biblical?

    there are SO many believers saying SO much "is biblical" that God never said.   What are common pitfalls to be alert to?   Questions to ask "Christian Counselors" can be found on our ministry website at this page:  https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/f22704b8-5ede-4a14-b863-05efb074af26/downloads/ae1423e5-f325-422e-8088-c0ec2586d269/Questions%20to%20ask%20of%20a%20potential%20counselor%201.pdf?ver=1769693112158https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/f22704b8-5ede-4a14-b863-05efb074af26/downloads/8884e906-15e1-4da7-87fe-fada7bf9bcaa/BIBLE%20ON%20SELF%20DEFENSE.pdf?ver=1765485091120   Please check out our other podcast where Kirk's "live, unedited" Sunday morning teaching is available each week.  It will give you the feeling that you are part of our every week class. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-4-life-change/id1794019663

    A Biblical "fly by" on Self Defense

    This will give a relatively complete answer to the idea of whether or not it is acceptable for Christians to carry weapons for self-defense, or study martial arts, etc. ... or is this a lack of faith in God's protection?   notes from this podcast can be found at:  https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/f22704b8-5ede-4a14-b863-05efb074af26/downloads/8884e906-15e1-4da7-87fe-fada7bf9bcaa/BIBLE%20ON%20SELF%20DEFENSE.pdf?ver=1765485091120   Please check out our other podcast where Kirk's "live, unedited" Sunday morning teaching is available each week.  It will give you the feeling that you are part of our every week class. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-4-life-change/id1794019663

    Why do I Keep Sinning and not Changing?

    This is in no way a comprehensive theology on sin and fighting sin.   But SO many still ask this question to us.  The goal of this podcast is to at least address a few of the biggest issues we seem to see in those we counsel.   Please check out our other podcast where Kirk's "live, unedited" Sunday morning teaching is available each week.  It will give you the feeling that you are part of our every week class. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-4-life-change/id1794019663

    Do Adult Children need to Obey Their Parents?

    In the course of years of youth work and in our counseling we seem to come across so many examples of adult children, even those already married, being pressured by their parents that God expects them to obey or to "do what they are counseled".   Is this really a biblical expectation?   Please check out our other podcast where Kirk's "live, unedited" Sunday morning teaching is available each week.  It will give you the feeling that you are part of our every week class. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-4-life-change/id1794019663

    Are "Boundaries" really a Biblical Concept?

    The world has promoted the concept of "Boundaries" for a long time and now the church at large has adopted and attempted to defend the practice with Scripture.  Is this idea truly Scriptural?  We will attempt to answer this question in a short period of time as best possible.  This discussion is by NO means complete nor comprehensive, but should be sufficient to get you thinking.   Some notes will be posted here so you can think on this further and follow up on some of the passages: https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/f22704b8-5ede-4a14-b863-05efb074af26/downloads/2a6cfd2f-0203-4416-9e3f-b504d8430993/BOUNDARIES%20for%20podcast.pdf?ver=1746919889823

    Should Christians incorporate common Psychology terms in conversation

    It's impossible to avoid the regular flow of hearing terms such as "abuse", "abandoned", "toxic", "boundaries", "shame", "heal", "thrive", "process", and the like on a daily basis.   Every TV show and podcast uses them, your friends use them, the books you read use them, and probably many of you have come to adopt some or many of these as well.   However, there are many reasons that a believer should consider the wisdom (or more accurately, the LACK of wisdom) in adopting and accepting this kind of language in your personal thinking or in helping other believers grow in thier sanctification.   Please check out our other podcast where Kirk's "live, unedited" Sunday morning teaching is available each week.  It will give you the feeling that you are part of our every week class. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-4-life-change/id1794019663

    Should my kids attend Youth Group or Children's Church?

    As a youth pastor for nearly 20 years, this was a regular issue.   How do we navigate these awkward issues as parents in a way that fulfills our responsibilities without being divisive and hurtful to our church leaders?   Please check out our other podcast where Kirk's "live, unedited" Sunday morning teaching is available each week.  It will give you the feeling that you are part of our every week class. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-4-life-change/id1794019663

    Why Do I Need To Attend Church?

    All believers know Scripture "commands church".   But does "doing church" mean singing and listening to a service?   In the advent of the internet and especially in the aftermath of COVID,  many have resorted to "doing church" remotely.   Is this biblical?   Where does Scripture address this?   Please check out our other podcast where Kirk's "live, unedited" Sunday morning teaching is available each week.  It will give you the feeling that you are part of our every week class. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-4-life-change/id1794019663

    Does Prayer Really Make a Difference

    It's easy to see the sovereignty of God and begin to wonder if prayer really makes a difference.  In this episode we will discuss numerous verses that assure us that God DOES listen and He has ordained that Prayer DOES make a difference in His sovereign will.   Please check out our other podcast where Kirk's "live, unedited" Sunday morning teaching is available each week.  It will give you the feeling that you are part of our every week class. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-4-life-change/id1794019663
