In this episode of Redeeming Truth, the pastors unpack the hidden pressure of social media and the danger of living in a hurry. Together, they explore why God values faithfulness in the small, unseen moments and how decades of quiet obedience matter far more than instant results. You'll be encouraged to rethink success, trust God's timing, and embrace the process of slow, steady growth in your walk with Christ. If you've been feeling overlooked, discouraged, or tempted to compare your life to others, this conversation will help you refocus on what truly matters: being faithful today.   Click here to Subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCenfIkvDIJa4Qb4WgsH8hkw?sub_confirmation=1 REDEEMING TRUTH MEDIA: http://redeemingtruthmedia.org/ Follow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/redeemerbibleaz/ For more information about Redeemer Bible Church in Gilbert, Arizona, or to help support this ministry, please visit us at https://www.redeemeraz.org Join our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/redeemeraz Follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/redeemeraz Never miss a sermon, find our Redeeming Truth Podcast in your favorite player, and subscribe!

    EP 191 | Race, DEI, and Identity: Are We Getting This Wrong? | Redeeming Truth

    Are "race" and DEI helping us love our neighbors—or dividing the church? In this episode of Redeeming Truth, Pastors Jon Benzinger, Virgil Walker, and Darrell Harrison examine identity, race, and culture through a biblical lens. They challenge modern assumptions about race, trace the origins of these ideas, and point back to Scripture's teaching of one human race created in the image of God. This conversation addresses how both cultural and political influences can shape our thinking—and why our identity must ultimately be found in Christ, not in tribal or ethnic categories. Stay to the end for practical resources and encouragement to remain grounded in God's Word in a divided world.

    EP 190 | God's Design vs Gender Identity: The Ultimate Battle | Redeeming Truth

    You've heard it before: "Be who you feel you are." But what if that idea is built on something completely false? In this episode of Redeeming Truth, Pastors Jon Benzinger, Darrell Harrison, and Virgil Walker respond to a shocking reality: 👉 Up to 50% of evangelicals now believe you can choose your gender. But this isn't just cultural. This is theological—and eternal.   In this conversation, you'll discover: Why the idea of "gender identity" didn't come from Scripture The difference between what God created… and what culture redefines The real spiritual and psychological consequences behind this movement Why truth and love cannot be separated This isn't about politics. It's about whether we will trust God's design—or our feelings.

    EP 189 | 70% of Evangelicals Believe This About Sin…But the Bible Says Otherwise | Redeeming Truth

    Most people assume humans are basically good. But Scripture tells a very different story. In this episode of the Redeeming Truth Podcast, our pastors respond to surprising findings from the Ligonier / Lifeway State of Theology survey, which revealed that many self-identified evangelicals hold views about sin that contradict the Bible. Walking through passages such as Psalm 51, Romans 5, James 2, and Ephesians 2, they explain why a low view of sin ultimately comes from a low view of God's holiness—and why misunderstanding sin leads to misunderstanding the gospel. When we see sin as the Bible describes it, the grace of Christ becomes far more glorious.

    EP 188 | What Happened to Truth? The Crisis Facing Evangelical Christianity | Redeeming Truth

    Is truth objective—or just personal preference? In this episode of Redeeming Truth, our pastors address the growing rejection of biblical truth within modern evangelicalism. Using Scripture and data from The State of Theology survey, they explain what truth is, why it matters, and how abandoning God's Word leads to doctrinal drift, cultural confusion, and dying churches. This conversation calls believers back to Jesus Christ—the Truth—and reminds the church of its God-given responsibility to know, uphold, and proclaim the truth with courage, love, and conviction.

    EP 187 | What Happens When the Bible Isn't Your Final Authority?

    Only 60% of evangelicals say the Bible is their highest authority. That statistic should stop every Christian in their tracks. In this episode of the Redeeming Truth Podcast, our pastors wrestle with a sobering question raised by the State of Theology survey: If the Bible isn't the highest authority for what you believe… what is? Culture? Personal feelings? Popular voices? Your own heart? This conversation exposes why this question isn't academic — it's eternal. The pastors discuss: Why every person lives under some authority (whether they admit it or not) How evangelicalism quietly drifted from Scripture alone to something softer Why preaching that avoids conviction produces churches full of comfort — not truth And what happens when God's Word is treated as optional instead of authoritative This episode isn't about attacking others. It's about self-examination. Because whatever you place above Scripture will not stand when you stand before God. 👉 Listen carefully. 👉 Ask honestly. 👉 And be prepared to answer the question you can't avoid forever.

    EP 186 | Fallen Pastors & Sexual Sin: Why Good Theology Isn't Enough | Redeeming Truth

    When pastors fall into sexual sin, adultery, or moral failure, the impact on churches, families, and individual believers can be devastating. In this episode of Redeeming Truth from Redeemer Bible Church, Pastor Jon Benzinger sits down with our pastors and biblical counselors to speak honestly about fallen pastors, pastoral disqualification, and how Christians can process betrayal while rebuilding trust in Christ—not in men. Drawing from real-life stories of hidden sin, long-term affairs, and leaders disqualified from ministry, this conversation addresses: Why sound theology—even Reformed doctrine—alone cannot keep a pastor from falling How discontentment, lust, pride, and heart-level idolatry fuel secret sin The ripple effects of pastoral failure on marriages, children, congregations, and communities Why pastors are "but men" who need accountability, prayer, and close fellowship How believers can grieve rightly while keeping their eyes fixed on Jesus You'll also hear: A sobering account of a large church shattered by a long-hidden affair Counseling insights on trust, trauma, disillusionment, and church discipline Biblical warnings from Luke 4:13; 1 Timothy 4:16; James 1; Romans 13, and more Why discontentment often becomes the gateway sin to adultery and moral failure Howard Hendricks' findings from thousands of fallen pastors—and what they all had stopped doing If you've been hurt by a fallen pastor, fear it could happen where you worship, or are a pastor who wants to finish well, this episode offers sober warning, biblical clarity, and gospel hope.   🔔 Subscribe for more biblical teaching and pastoral conversations from Redeemer Bible Church. 💬 Share this episode with someone wrestling with church hurt or pastoral failure.
