Knowing Faith

I enjoy the careful discussion of God’s Word with fun host bantering mixed into the conversation. As for a topic to tackle, I’d love to hear a discussion on minced oaths and euphemisms and how Christians should approach the importance of words and meaning. For instance, should Christian use words such as gosh, darn, and dang? Are “stand in” words different than actually saying OMG? Same with “freakin” for the F word. What does Scripture say about our use of words? What does it mean to say it in vain?

This is such a fun listen! My husband works out of town half of the week and we always listen separately and then have a great conversation about the podcast when he gets back, we both look forward to it! A controversial topic I would be very interested in hearing some differing biblical perspectives on from you guys on is family planning. I realize that is an incredibly personal subject but it’s also very practical as it touches the life of most married Christians across decades. Maybe I’m presuming but I think there are a lot of us out there grappling with this in a silo as opposed to in community. Personally most of my questions on the topic have been deferred as a matter of Christian liberty, which likely has a place in this conversation but doesn’t answer any questions. Whether or not this is a topic y’all eventually tackle I appreciate all the work you do to help equip the church!

I have loved the past two seasons on tough questions! Would love to hear discussion on contraception (a topic I feel is entirely neglected in evangelicalism). Our church did a whole series on Sexual Ethics and didn’t touch reproduction.

My wife referenced this podcast (10 commandments pt 1 & 2) I just wanted to say thank you for having these conversations. Jen I really appreciated you addressing the issues within evangelical subculture on this iss. “By what means” is such a brilliant response. I think the American Church has to be incredibly careful about how we partner with the counterfeit kingdoms of men. I can think of no example Christ gave that would lead us to strive for political power. He was offered that during the temptation, he was constantly asked questions by people who were looking for a military messianic king to over throw the Roman’s. I think we are missing the point of “what is the Kingdom of God” Would love to hear you speak more on that topic
