from The Common Good Podcast · host Brian From

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are sharing about the 'Sunday Service' they hold at their home. Brian and Ian unpack what constitutes a religious service. With all the resources rich kids have access to for academic advantages, what cost does it come at? The guys discuss the unfair expectations all parents put on their children to do well and succeed in life. Scientists say that the brain erases unimportant information to aid in making smart decisions. Brian and Ian examine how this can aid people in their spiritual lives as well as their day to day. Mike Pompeo compared President Trump to Queen Esther, saving the people of Israel in the modern world. Ian and Brian break down the dangers of talking about political leaders in terms of 'messiah', while still supporting them but remembering Jesus is the Savior. Jordan Peterson has emerged as an immensely popular public figure and speaker in the secular age. But when he refuses to fully acknowledge the sovereignty of Christ, is the message he conveying truly worth listening to? The pastors look at his rise to fame and how Jesus is the only true ultimate answer in a modern world. A megachurch built a basketball court in its sanctuary, and the pastor is using sports terms as part of his preaching style. Does this method of preaching truly reach people for Christ, or will it serve to drive them away? Both Brian and Ian look at what the role of Sunday morning is and what it should mean to try and reach people who don't know the Gospel. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
