The Pew Review

In this episode of The Pew Review, we tackle three real and relevant faith questions: 1️⃣ Does “neighbor” really mean my next-door neighbor? We dig into what Jesus meant when He said, “Love your neighbor,” and how to discern who you're called to serve. 2️⃣ Is it okay to pray for silly things—like a parking spot or not burning dinner? We explore what Scripture says about bringing all things to God in prayer—even the small stuff. 3️⃣ Does Mark 9:42 apply to parenting? We discuss the weight of spiritual responsibility in parenting and what it means to be a stumbling block (or not) for your kids. 💬 Whether you're a parent, a new believer, or just curious about how to live out your faith practically, this episode is for you. 👇 Drop your thoughts or questions in the comments—we’d love to hear from you! #ThePewReview #ChristianPodcast #FaithQuestions #ParentingAndFaith #PrayerLife #LoveYourNeighbor #whitingchristianchurch _________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for listening to our content!!!
