Coffee with The Kendrick's

In today’s episode, we talk about the difference between being a cultural Christian and a genuine believer. It is easy to proclaim Christ, but living the life He has called believers to live can be harder. There is a daily denial of self and picking up your cross. https://www.gotquestions.org/cultural-Christianity.html https://www.crosswalk.com/faith/spiritual-life/what-s-the-difference-between-biblical-and-cultural-christianity.html

Last week we started a series for our MINI episodes discussing Scriptures that are commonly misused. Today we are covering Jeremiah 29:11 which says, "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." While this verse is one of encouragement, we do damage applying it when we do not consider the original audience.  Resource Mentioned: The Most Misused Verses in the Bible: Surprising Ways God's Word Is Misunderstood by Eric J.

In the church you hear a lot of big words that might be confusing for you. Today we answer the question: What is sanctification?

Today we answer a question that a lot of people may have. When false teachings or teachers get called out, a lot of people confuse it with slander. As believers we are to be united around the gospel. The most loving thing a person can do is call out false teachers because they’re protecting others from being led astray. False teachers are the ones causing division in the church and we’ll explore what Scripture has to say about it. Scriptures Mentioned: Romans 16:17-18 *The others are found in the article attached.

Once you are in Christ, you become a new creation. Therefore, your life should no longer look the way that it did prior to you knowing Christ. True Christians will bear fruit for God’s glory.
