Can Christians do Yoga? That's the question I pose to Kelly McLellan, who professes Christianity, and is a Yoga instructor. It's not as simple of an answer as you might think.

Listen to my inside perspective and experience today!   www.trentholbertfitness.com

How does God view racism? Well the Bible makes no mistake to categorize all forms of racism, bigotry, abuse, and injustices as blatant sin. For Christians, there isn't even an argument. All people are created in the image of God and with intrinsic value. So valuable, IN FACT, that Jesus died for ALL. It's also without question, that Christian's highest social priority is to be "people of peace", loving our neighbor, and standing to protect anyone being abused or marginalized.  However, in these days of extreme emotional polarization of thoughts and opinions, sometimes we go that extra mile to prove our point. And we end up doing more damage than good. This episode deals with the problem of using Bible texts to say what we want. Even if to make a valid point, this is dangerous. It's heretical in theology and perpetuates the "progressive theology" movement that allows for human ideals to override scriptural teaching.  The point is, if you want to make a Biblical case to stand against racism, you've plenty to choose from. There is no need to mis-use or take out of context what has been written. And in this episode I show you why it's dangerous to both you, and the person you are trying to protect. 

Arguing is human nature. These days, it seems worse. Tensions are high and opinions are strong. But does it have to be divisive? Can we argue in a godly manner? In this episode I give you 5 principles that will ensure you maintain your decorum and character while asserting your opinion.    www.trentholbertfitness.com
