Look at the world’s current state with the war in Ukraine, rumors of wars, Covid-19, and much more, it seems that there would be a push for unity. Look at the United States, a line has been drawn in the sand, party lines are divided, democrats versus republicans, the vaxxed versus the unvaxxed, parents against parents, children against parents, etc. There seems to be a lack of love, and that lack of love has spilled over into the church. The same issues that plague our world are the same problems that burden the church today. John MacArthur wrote, “Every problem that our church has ever faced can be traced back to a lack of love.” The church should operate by a different standard, and that stand is built around “A Commanding Love.” Love is the central theme of the believer’s life, and for there to be unity amongst believers, there must be love. “The Command to Love” that Christ prescribed for professing believers can remedy any problem facing the church today.

Questions From The Pew - WOS World Outspoken “Questions From The Pew” is just that, a forum for discussion on the issues that are ruminating in the minds of church-goers, but that are often not raised from the pulpit. We’re here to address the intersection of our culture and the church, which is made incarnate by the folks who populate church pews every Sunday across the nation. We see a prime importance in actively identifying the very potent challenges that arise when a Christian steps into the real world, a place which abounds in diverse cultures, perspectives and ideologies. Here, no inquiry is off limits. If God is willing to engage with every aspect of our humanity, certainly we, as Christians, should not be afraid to run that gambit either. It may be tough, reconciling a millennias old value system, within our 21s​ t​ century culture, but here at, “Questions From The Pew”, we believe in creativity within orthodoxy. Not only can we identify the questions that arise from our culture, but we can readily engage with them in Anointed Radio Sports Anointed Radio Sports Anointed Radio Network is a new Las Vegas Christian Radio Station that is bringing a platform for all Christian’s to come and share about their businesses or talents.
