Are there contradictions in Scripture?
Have you ever been asked about certain passages in Scripture that seem to contradict themselves? For one who is trying to justify a life without Christ, this is often a key element of their argument. If the Bible, which claims to be God's inerrant word, makes a statement which cannot be true due…

Fluent Grace Preaches - After Darkness, Light
In our second episode of Fluent Grace Preaches, Tyler shares a sermon from Matthew 27:45-66, the account of Jesus's death and burial. More than any other time in history, this stands alone as the single darkest moment; when the Son of God was killed by the very ones He created. This however is…

This episode has it all: new intros, major life updates, a discussion of Christmas music, and our thoughts on cancel culture. As we get close to the end of 2020, one of the things that will define this year is mankind's willingness to cancel any and everything that we as individuals disagree…

A Gospel Response to 2020 (The Gospel and the 'Rona)

Walking Through Depression - Part 2

Just a little catch-up

Talkin' the Psalms
This episode was recorded before 28; we were just not able to get it published. Because of that, some of the content is a bit dated (it was recorded on Veterans Day). In this episode we talk through a listener submitted question on Psalm 25:10. Within the question we talk about God's love and...
-
Thoughts on the problem of sin and evil
The problem has been around since the beginning of time... why is there sin and evil. More specifically, did God create evil, does He orchestrate it, or as some might say, can He not even look upon it? In no way do we fully answer these timeless questions; in fact, we would submit that in many…
more -
What's Up With Denominations?
In this episode, we discuss denominations. Is there one that is right and all the others are wrong? Are they all basically the same thing? What's the difference between them? While none of these get answered exhaustively we touch on them and leave you with our thoughts on how we should approach...

Salvation. Predestination. Huh?
This week we are re-posting one of the episodes we published a few months ago related to salvation. The doctrine of salvation is a non-negotiable for one desiring to follow Christ, but what about predestination and election? How do we make sense of something that has been discussed and even…

Should I Hate my Life?
If we were to make a list of the most confusing or misunderstood verses in scripture, John 12:25 would definitely be on the list. One of our students asked about this verse, specifically if Jesus is telling us to hate our life. In this episode we interact with the verse and hopefully provide a…

What to do when sin is more attractive than Jesus
Let’s be real. Sometimes sin is just more appealing or attractive than Jesus. Why is that? And what are we to do when faced with a situation like this? Tim and Tyler discuss these questions, both from the perspective of a believer, and from the perspective of one who is struggling to make the…

How the Gospel Should Affect Daily Life

Jeremiah 29:11 (and other verses taken out of context)
In this episode Tim and Tyler discuss more verses that are often used out of context. We all know them; we all probably use them, but as followers of Christ we have a responsibility to properly read and speak of God's word. In Ephesians 6 we are told that God's word is our only offensive weapon...
-
Philippians 4:13 (and other verses taken out of context)
Scripture is essential in the life of a believer. Scripture taken out of context though can be used to justify most anything, even things that clearly do not line up with the rest of God’s word. In this episode we run through some of these verses and talk about ways in which they are taken out of...
-
Salvation. Predestination. Huh?
One of the hardest doctrines to understand in all of scripture is the doctrine of predestination, or election. In this episode we jump into that discussion, though in full transparency even we do not fully understand it. The one thing we do fully understand is that salvation is a gift from God…

Questions Students Want to Ask - Part 6
One of the hardest questions in the Christian life is why does God allow trials and temptations. Actually the question is easy; it’s the answer that is hard. We see things from our limited human perspective, and through that lens it sometimes appears as if God doesn’t really care about us, or…

Questions Students Want to Ask - Part 4
The topic all students want to hear about is sex. So we talk about it. Unlike most platforms that broach this subject however, we do not talk about the do's and don'ts. Rather, we talk about the reason behind the "rules" and how we can honor Christ in this area. We also talk about how we should...
-
Questions Students Want to Ask - Part 3
Life would be a whole lot easier without having to deal with other people. But then again, most things are easier when you can just take care of it by yourself. The reality though is that we can’t live under a rock for very long, and we have to be in relationships with those around us. In fact…

Questions Students Want to Ask - Part 2
In part 2 of our attempt to answer some specific questions asked by students, we talk about what to do if a friend is going down the road to rebellion, or is struggling with doubt. How do we respond? Do we keep being their friend or do we completely separate from that person? While no answer can…

Dealing with Doubt
If you have ever taken a breath, you have experienced doubt. It’s natural, frustrating, and at times scary. Am I really saved? Does God really love me? Is there really a God? Is God really good? These and countless others are questions asked on a regular basis by those desiring to follow Jesus…

Weird stories in Scripture and why they're included

Thoughts on Social Media
Thanks to social media our world is more connected, yet also more isolated than ever before. We spend a ridiculous amount of time doing who knows what on our favorite social media platform, while often rejecting the most important relationships in our lives. In this episode we talk through some...

Can/Should Christians Disagree?
One of the biggest problems we come across today is the people do not know how to civilly disagree with each other. It seems as if folks get so dead set on their own opinions and beliefs that they are unable to respectfully and lovingly disagree when others may hold other convictions. In this...
-
How did we get our Bible?
We talk a lot about the Bible, but how did we get the 66 individual books that make up the scriptures? In this episode we discuss this question, and dig into the steps that went into identifying which early church writings were in fact inspired by God.
-
What is Repentance?
No one likes to acknowledge sin, but the reality is we all deal with it.

Why Faith?
Just as the Gospel is foundational to everything we will be discussing on this podcast, so too is faith. We know from Hebrews 11:6 that without faith it is impossible to please God, so in this episode we talk about the need for faith, and the difference between trying to logically figure out the...
