- Religion & Spirituality
Contemporary Christianity appears inauthentic to the world around us. We profess beliefs that we don't practice. Our behavior is remarkably the same as non-believers. And we "do church" rather than follow Jesus. This podcast illuminates where we miss the mark. Too often we choose to "water down" God's expectations of his children by filtering scripture through the lens of culture. In doing so we simply go through the motions, never fully committing ourselves to Jesus. And we miss the "abundant life" that has been offered to us. Buckle up as we dissect some complicated truth.

Taxing the Church
The voice of those who wish to tax the church is growing louder. And, considering our national debt, the government is seeking creative new ways to obtain more money.

Church taxes are coming - and soon! Understand what can be done to mitigate the impact to your church.
