"Of course, I believe in God." You've probably heard someone say this during a conversation about spiritual topics. Yet, you wonder, do they really believe what Jesus taught? What do they mean by God? What is the belief system of the average American Christian? In this teaching, we are going to explore the theological framework of American cultural Christians and how to respond to it, leading to saving knowledge in Christ. 

We follow the news and hear about the start of a new war. We hear about a mass shooting or a person being attacked. Our first reaction is to justify a violent response either to an injustice or to defend or condemn an aggressive country. What does God say about a violent response? Jesus told the person to turn the other cheek and not to retaliate with violence. What if your life is threatened or a country is defending itself? Is violence justifiable? We are going to talk about what God says about just war and self-defense. Thank you for listening.

We are constantly bombarded by social movements. We could ignore these topics, take a party line, or respond with truth and justice. What is true and right, not opinion. This teaching will talk about what God says about immigration. We will talk through several key Bible passages that speak about the foreigner. Who is our God, and how should we respond to what God wants for His people? We hope this podcast will guide God's people on this difficult topic. 

In this teaching, we discuss the steps of reconciliation and how to give a godly rebuke. Don't let the word, rebuke, scare you. Correcting in love is an important part of a person's spiritual growth. We will look at key Scriptures and talk through how to confront someone in love. 

In this teaching, we are talking about wounds that go unrecognized and unrestored. Not all marriages are positive and life-giving. How would God want you to respond to a spouse who keeps hurting you? We will work through key Scriptures and how to set boundaries. 

In this teaching, we are talking about forgiveness and reconciliation in marriage. Sometimes the people closest to us can hurt us the worst. We will talk through key Scriptures and steps we can take to bring marriage restoration. 

In this teaching, we are talking about forgiveness, reconciliation, and when it's time to separate from someone. What does forgiveness look like, and how do we respond to people who keep hurting us? We are looking at key scriptures to develop our understanding on how to love difficult people.
