But applying those truths to the complexity of everyday life requires wisdom, discernment, and pastoral counsel. In each episode, we’re going to consider practical issues, open the Scriptures to discover God’s timeless principles, and then consider how to navigate the complex issues of our day, whether that’s in our homes, church, work, or world.
