How do we define sin without clinging to the Ten Commandments? A caller posed this question, and I had to respond – imagine trying to use the Law to keep track of what's right and wrong! It's laughable to think our moral compass should be limited to what's etched in stone.Here's the deal: Christianity isn't about avoiding a checklist of sins. It's about expressing Christ in us. The Spirit of God is eager to lead us, producing fruit that goes way beyond “don't steal” or “don't lie.” When we focus on a dynamic, Spirit-led relationship with Jesus, everything else falls into place.Want to hear more?

Sometime ago I was driving and passed a local church of a denomination I grew up in. In front of the church was a small sign that read “Stand Firm.” As I passed by, my mind went to what we were taught those many years ago. We were to take an offensive posture and declare dominion over the enemy in the name of Jesus. Stand against the powers of evil and proclaim God's victory in Jesus Christ. The extent of my knowledge of spiritual warfare was that it would be up to me to be right with God so I wouldn't be taken out.

Have I repented enough? Can I get back in God's favor? Will God hear my prayers?These were Clint's questions as he nearly broke down in tears asking me about his past and his concern of being distant from God.We hope you enjoyed this episode.

I'm burning out trying to help my brother (an addict living on the street) at any cost. What can I do? My daughter watches scary movies and has skulls. I wonder if she's still saved. What should I conclude? I'm frustrated, because our church has been studying David for two years, and it's mostly about sin management. And when I mention grace, they tell me I need to be careful, because it's too dangerous and people might abuse it.

Jonathan called in to ask about the difference between our righteous actions and our righteousness as people.His question spurred me to share several important thoughts on righteousness.In this eipisode, I distinguish the inspiring truth from some of the misconceptions we hear today.We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Send us a textA Jeep named Blasphemy idled outside a church he never meant to visit—and a single text pushed the door open. What followed wasn't a lightning bolt but a slow, stubborn grace that met a former Luciferian in his grief, his doubts, and his need for peace. We sit down with Frederick to trace the path from fear-based power to a life anchored in Christ, including the moment he saw a cross “lit” that shouldn't have been, the day he renounced the enemy out loud on a lonely road, and the quiet practices that turned turmoil into clarity.We also dig into a question that confuses and scares many: can Christians be possessed by demons? With biblical grounding and help from Dr. Andrew Farley's teaching, we draw a firm line—indwelt by the Holy Spirit means not possessed. The enemy's weapons are accusation, deception, and distraction from the outside, but our identity in Christ—holy, forgiven, a new creation—secures the inside. That shift moves us from demon-focused anxiety to Jesus-centered confidence.Finally, we get practical about living a victorious life. Not hype—habits. We talk discipline that looks like devotion: reading Scripture in context, praying out loud when the mind runs wild, choosing daily to walk as a child of God with power, love, and a sound mind. If you've wrestled with dark nights, lingering shame, or the lies that keep you small, this story and the truths we unpack will help you stand tall in the light.If this conversation encouraged you, share it with a friend who needs hope today.

Does the God of the Old Testament seem different in the New Testament? A caller asked me about this apparent shift from violence to mercy. Is God having a personality crisis? And what about evil and disasters – is God hurling calamities our way?God's character is unchanging, but there's been a radical change in covenants. As believers today, we're living under a better deal with better promises. No more worrying about losing the Holy Spirit or offering endless sacrifices. The Gospel offers us a life of grace and freedom.Dive into this video and transform your understanding of God's goodness. Yes, He's the same yesterday, today, and forever, but the New Covenant changes everything!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Dennis recently asked his mother why she believes Jesus is the one true way to God. Her answer: “I don't know, I just always believed that way.”Dennis was not satisfied with that answer, so he called in to our program to ask me the same question!Why do I believe Jesus is the one true way to God? Why do I believe Christianity is the truth when there are so many religions in the world?In this episode, I offer Dennis my thoughts. Enjoy!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

We hear a lot about eternal rewards in Christian circles, but what does it actually mean to “store up treasures in Heaven”? Is it about snagging a bigger mansion or stacking up crowns, like a heavenly bling collection?Jesus isn't offering a Righteous Rewards Program in Matthew 6 – He's inviting us to shift our focus from the earthly to the eternal perspective. (Remember: Treasures are discovered, not earned!) The Apostle Paul echoes this call, urging us to set our minds on things above, not on earthly things.Forget about earning status or collecting extra rewards. In this video, I unpack the ultimate treasure Jesus is referencing, including the spiritual riches we possess right now.

David has only been a believer for about one year. But already he has noticed all the different beliefs and opinions among Christians.His question is: If the Holy Spirit is teaching every believer, why are there so many different (and opposing!) beliefs out there?In this short clip, I offer David my thoughts.We hope you enjoyed this episode.

In Revelation, there's an admonition for Christians to remain focused and not lose their first love.David from Florida called in about this expression. He had been told that not losing your first love means to “remain energized” and “stay 100% sold out” and make sure you're always doing good works.But the group that received this admonition from God was already busy standing up for truth and stomping out evil doctrines!So in this clip, I share with David what it really means to remain focused on our first love, Jesus.Enjoy!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Sin is a touchy subject. Most of us would rather avoid it, or we've been taught to fear it, obsess over it or try harder to beat it. But what if we've been approaching it all wrong? Kyle welcomes Dr. Andrew Farley to talk openly and honestly about sin, spiritual growth and the radical truth that grace reveals.

Ever been told you need to try harder to be like Jesus? It's easy to get swept up in the hustle for cleaner living and better behavior, thinking it'll boost your standing with God.But striving to be more like Jesus suggests you're not already like Him. If you're always trying to become something you're not, you'll never arrive. What if true growth is about realizing you're already like Jesus?In this episode, I dive into how embracing your identity in Christ liberates you to live from your new tendency and trend. Check it out and discover that a believer's default setting isn't sin – it's righteousness!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Jack from Grand Rapids, Michigan called in to ask about this challenging New Testament passage:“For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband.” (1 Corinthians 7:14)Is a husband automatically saved because of his wife's faith? Or vice versa? This was Jack's question, and in this episode, I address this difficult passage to get at the heart of the Gospel message and the Apostle Paul's true meaning here.Enjoy!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Leonard called to ask about this challenging passage in Romans:“What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction?” (Romans 9:22)Is this just a hypothetical? Who are the “vessels of wrath”? Does Romans 9 somehow support the idea of an irresistible calling by God to salvation for select individuals? Do others have no hope?In this episode, I address Leonard's concerns and discuss the true meaning of Romans 9 in context. So if you have ever wondered about this passage, I hope this short clip is both encouraging and clarifying!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Have you ever been told you need to “surrender” to become more useful to God? To some of us, “surrender” almost sounds like we're criminals or in an opposing army, right?It's time to challenge this made-up jargon and see it for what it is – unhealthy and sometimes even abusive. The New Testament never mentions surrendering to God. Instead, we simply present ourselves and our bodies to Him. Yes, We're on the same team!Plus, God isn't tearing you down to make you more useful; He's building you up in Christ! You're His child, and you don't need to be “crushed” or be more “sold out” to express Jesus.Check out this episode and discover the healthy place you can enjoy in God's family and what it means to be secure and complete in Christ!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Romans 12:2 describes a transformation that occurs in our lives as our minds are renewed:And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.Romans 12:2So how does this “mind renewal” actually happen?

Have you ever heard this prosperity gospel pitch, where God's a divine slot machine, and with enough faith, you hit the jackpot?To put it simply, that's not the Gospel.

Everyone loves to hear that God is gracious and kind, but there's so much more to grace than feel-good generalities. Ever wondered how to explain what makes God's grace and the New Covenant so incredible?Warning: Diving deeper into the love and grace of God can ruffle some feathers. Grace can feel dangerous – even offensive – to some. But when we grasp our once-for-all forgiveness, freedom from the Law (yes, even the Ten Commandments!), and trust Jesus for our morality, grace becomes more than just a buzzword. It's a life-changing reality!Check out this episode and learn more about a grace that truly matters!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

If Old Testament worshipers had the benefit of a once-for-all sacrifice, they would have no longer had consciousness of their sins:”Otherwise, would [the sacrifices] not have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have had consciousness of sins?” —Hebrews 10:2Robert called in to ask what it means to not have consciousness of sins and how we get to that place.

Many people wonder if their past mistakes are too much for God to handle. A recent caller shared his struggle with finding peace because of past sins, and I had some thoughts to share. Is it the size of your sins or the size of your Savior that truly matters?Romans 5 assures us we have peace with God through Jesus Christ. Yet, we often wrestle with the notion that our sins are deal-breakers. But here's the truth: God isn't keeping score. His love is ginormous, and His grace is inexhaustible. So, what's the real issue? Maybe it's time to stop obsessing over your sins and start embracing the incredible love and grace of God.Curious about how God truly sees you?
