Summary

We live in a world whereby people look to be accepted in all aspects of life. People have a desire to be accepted into into Ivy League schools, prestigious universities, reputable social clubs, prominent organizations and career fields, be among the elite of society, and even be accepted among their peers. The truth is that many individuals long to be accepted in the greater society because they simply want to fit in and not be labeled a misfit. In anything in life people want to feel accepted as opposed to feeling like a misfit or someone that is not suitable for any organization or group. The reality that humans face at times in life include being excluded, ousted, ostracized, or rejected in the eyes of mankind. However, there is great news for us today, that no matter how much you may fail at fitting in within society, God always stands ready to accept you into His royal family and kingdom. Ephesians 1:4-7 speaks to the reality of finding acceptance in God based on three facts: 1. We have acceptance because He chose us 2. We have acceptance as a result of His immeasurable grace and 3. We have acceptance because of His redemptive love.

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.
