    Dan Jarms and Mark Frankian discuss the importance of being ready for death, referencing Hebrews 9:27 and the concept of judgment. They define death and the second death as separation. Mark points to the significance of faith in Christ for eternal life, contrasting it with the "second death" in Revelation 20.

    Do You Fear Death? Part 1: What happens to grandma when she dies?

    Dan and John discuss the afterlife, focusing on what happens to a loved one, "grandma," after death. They explore two scenarios: if grandma is a believer versus if she is not. For believers, upon death, their souls are immediately in the presence of the Lord, awaiting the final resurrection. For unbelievers, their souls enter an intermediate state, until the final judgment. They emphasize the importance of evangelism and the hope of reunion with loved ones in eternity. The conversation also touches on the grief process, encouraging believers not to grieve as those without hope.

    Faith Basics: The Lord's Supper

    Brian Sayers join Dan Jarms to discuss the meaning and practice of the Lord's Supper. They explain that it is a corporate act of remembrance of Christ's sacrifice, with roots in the Passover meal, emphasizing the communal nature of the meal. The elements of bread and wine symbolize Christ's body and blood, emphasizing incarnation and sacrifice. They weigh in on the debate over frequency of observance, noting weekly practice is growing among Evangelical churches. They contrast views on the Lord's Supper, including the memorial view, transubstantiation, and real presence. The conversation also touches on the order of baptism and the Lord's Supper, pointing to the Biblical pattern of baptism before taking the Lord's Supper, which has been the practice of churches throughout history.
