Welcome to the Crossroads & Culture podcast, where we help you think through and navigate issues of life, ministry, and culture.

    SHOULD I VOTE?

    When it comes to the issues of government, specifically voting, do Christians and the Church have a voice? And, if so, why do we have a voice in this, and how do we express our voice in a way that is biblically sound and Christ-exalting? I talk about this, and more, on this episode of Crossroads & Culture.

    "It's Just the Ungodly Being Ungodly"?

    By now, you’ve probably heard, if not seen, the news surrounding the opening ceremony of the Olympics that took place this past Friday evening in Paris, France.  I’m going to be sharing some thoughts about this today on Crossroads & Culture.

    Is There War Between Christianity and Science?

    There seems to be a perception, generally speaking, that when it comes to science the tendency of Christians is to ignore and deem science incongruent with Christianity. But is it? Does true science destroy faith, or can it, being rightly understood, strengthen faith? We discuss that today on this episode of Crossroads & Culture.

    Intentional Dads

    On this podcast episode my guest, Justin Young, and I discuss the importance of dads and the need for them to be intentional in the lives of their children. In a culture where the definition of what it means to be a man is distorted, God's word is clear on his design and purpose of a man and his role in the life of his family.

    The Lost Discipline of Critical Thinking

    In today's culture, critical thinking has crumbled under the weight of personal feelings where what a person feels has become the litmus test for determining what a person thinks, believes, and decisions that are made.  Today on the Rediscovering Church podcast, we are discussing what does it mean, and why is it important, to think critically? And how does the Bible help you think critically?  FOR MORE RESOURCES CHECK OUT THESE LINKS: ⁠⁠⁠cprivervalley.org⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/churchproject_rivervalley⁠⁠ The Rediscovering Church podcast is a ministry of Church Project River Valley.

    Can We Really Know the Truth? (A study of 1 John)

    How do we know Jesus is who He says He is? How do we know what is truth and what is not truth? How do we know true teaching from false teaching? How can we be certain of salvation, or can we? Those are relevant and pressing questions that have been asked for centuries, and still resonate within the minds of believers and unbelievers alike. There are moments that you may have doubt and questions. So what do we do when those moments and questions come? A great book I would recommend regarding discerning counterfeit and false teachings is Counterfeit Kingdom, by Holly Pivec and Douglas Geivett Resources: https://sotb.research.bible/ (State of the Bible study) https://thestateoftheology.com/  (State of Theology)

    A Christmas Message: Prince of Peace

    The hope of Christmas is knowing that God, because of His grace, made a way for us to be reconciled to Himself by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, into the darkness of this sin-ravaged and chaos-filled world, so that we might be saved by faith through the sacrificial death of Christ for our sins.   The deep soul-abiding peace for which we long is not found in what man can do, but rather in what God has already done in Christ.  Because He is Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace, those who turn to Christ, by faith, can know a peace that is beyond our comprehension.

    Molech Is Alive and Well in Montana

    On Tuesday, the people of Montana voted to reject a ballot initiative (LR-131) that would have required, by law, doctors to administer life-giving care to born alive infants, including those who survived failed or botched abortions. On this episode of Crossroads & Culture, I talk about what God's word has to say about this, and how followers of Christ can respond.
