In this episode of That Ain't In the Bible, Jonathan and Brandon step directly into one of the fastest ways to start a church argument: music styles in worship. Should church music be traditional? Contemporary? Hymns only? Full band? Choir and orchestra? Acoustic? Loud? Quiet? And perhaps the biggest question of all: does the Bible actually command one specific style of music for the church?With a few spicy hot takes and some honest pushback against personal preferences disguised as biblical mandates, the guys discuss what Scripture does clearly command—namely that believers are to worship, sing, and glorify God together. At the same time, they challenge listeners to be careful not to elevate cultural tastes and personal opinions to the level of divine instruction.Because while singing praises to God is absolutely in the Bible…the commandment, “Thou shalt use only this musical style”?Yeah… that ain't in the Bible.10 Key Bible Verses on Singing Article

People are leaving evangelical churches and flocking to Eastern Orthodoxy in search of something ancient, serious, and reverent. But is trading one set of forms for really the answer? Kevin and Josh weigh the claims of Orthodoxy against the Word of God — and find that the apostles say nothing about icons, prayers to saints, or the mystical epistemology at the heart of Orthodox theology.

What does the Bible say about homosexuality? In this message, we examine what Scripture teaches about God's design for marriage, sexuality, and holiness. Looking at key passages throughout both the Old and New Testaments, we consider how God's Word addresses this topic and why it remains important for Christians to understand and respond to with both truth and love.This sermon also addresses several common questions and objections surrounding homosexuality, while emphasizing the authority of Scripture, the call to repentance, and the hope of the gospel. Ultimately, this is not a message of condemnation but of redemption—pointing to the grace, forgiveness, cleansing, and transformation that are available through Jesus Christ for all who turn to Him in faith.

Send us Fan MailWe continue our discussion of the Roman Catholic Church's various doctrines that are not found in the New Testament. We begin by discussing Extreme Unction which is anointing a person who is about to die. We next discuss the use of instrumental music which was added in 666AD. We note 15 Catholic doctrines and when they were established. We close out this study by noting that the Catholic Church began after the first century as a result of the apostacy the apostles said would occur, and its organizational structure is foreign to the New Testament pattern. Consequently, it cannot be the Church Jesus built. We move on to the next denomination on our list, which is the Lutheran church. We note when it dates from and why this can be said. We talk about why what Martin Luther did is so important to understand. As a result of his studies, he came to the conclusion that the Catholic Church had many errors in what it did. Consequently, he nailed 95 theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany in 1517. We close out this episode by mentioning his greatest objections to what the Catholic Church was doing. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. There is a transcript of this Buzzsprout episode provided for your convenience.

Kevin and Josh speak to a hard question from a listener whose husband is an alcoholic and won't work.

In this episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Drew and Tim tackle one of the most divisive conversations in modern Christianity: false teachers, discernment, church culture, and the rise of “heresy hunter” content online. Right now, social media is flooded with clips calling pastors heretics, false teachers, or wolves—and many Christians are left wondering:What actually makes someone a false teacher?Is every bad sermon automatically heresy?Can a pastor say something wrong without being condemned?And what's the difference between biblical discernment and a critical spirit?This episode dives deep into:what scripture says about false teacherswhy context matters with online sermon clipshow church culture can unintentionally produce critical peoplethe dangers of outrage-based Christianityand why believers must know scripture for themselves instead of living off internet callout cultureDrew and Tim also share personal stories from ministry, discuss public Christian leaders like Joel Osteen, Steven Furtick, and Ravi Zacharias, and wrestle honestly with the tension between grace, truth, discernment, and accountability. At the center of the conversation is a simple reminder:Our eyes ultimately belong on Jesus—not internet controversies.

What does the Bible say about mental health? Should Christians seek help from psychologists / psychiatrists? Should Christians take prescriptions for mental health struggles?

"Gosh, darn, heck, OMG"—many of our Christian forebears came to faith by being convicted of such language; yet today it is a light thing for most evangelicals. What do these words really mean, and how seriously should we take them? Kevin and Joshua go to Scripture to ask how much God cares about such language, and whether it is defiling or neutral.

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 8 of the Ask A Pastor Podcast, we tackle one of the most talked-about—and most misunderstood—topics in today's culture: sex.What does the Bible actually say about sex, purity, lust, pornography, marriage, singleness, and sexual brokenness? Is Christianity just about rules and restriction, or is there something deeper behind God's design?In a world that treats sex as casual, Scripture reveals that sex is sacred, powerful, and deeply connected to covenant, intimacy, and worship. From Genesis to the words of Jesus, this episode explores how God created sex not to shame us, but to protect us, connect us, and point us toward something greater.We discuss:• Why sex was God's idea from the beginning• Why the Bible places sex inside marriage• How lust and pornography shape the heart• The spiritual and emotional impact of sexual sin• God's grace for people carrying shame, regret, addiction, or brokenness• Practical encouragement for both married couples and single ChristiansNo matter your past, your struggle, or your questions, this conversation is centered on both truth and grace. Because Jesus doesn't just expose brokenness—He restores people.God's design for sex isn't about restriction—it's about redemption, protection, and covenant love.Support the show

Everyone has that feeling when they watch the news, or see someone get taken advantage of, that something is deeply wrong with the world. Where does that come from, and does it mean anything? This sermon looks at one of the most unjust moments in history, the trial of Jesus in John 18, and asks what it tells us about justice, power, and why we all long for things to be made right. The answer isn't just that justice is coming. It's that it has already begun.

Everyone wants to be happy — but why does happiness feel so hard to hold onto? In this message, What Does the Bible Say About Happiness?, you'll discover that lasting happiness isn't found in success, money, or the right circumstances (just ask Tom Brady). It comes from God himself — the happiest being in the universe — who loves you so much he sent his Son to rescue you from the one thing that destroys happiness: sin. You'll also find out why the popular idea that "God wants you to have joy, not happiness" is simply wrong, and why Christians should actually be the happiest people on the planet. If you're tired of chasing happiness and coming up empty, this message is for you.

Can you be a Christian and skip church? Kevin and Josh take that question straight to Scripture, examining Hebrews 10, Acts 2, and Ephesians 4 to show that the New Testament never envisions a believer disconnected from a local, gathered body. Far from a burden, the church is one of God's greatest gifts...a greenhouse where his people are protected, nourished, and grown.

Few doctrines stir up more unease in the modern church than the topic of hell. Even recently in the Christian podcast world, debates on the doctrine of hell have been highly publicized. Long-held assumptions about hell and damnation are being challenged by a broader cultural discomfort with the idea of divine judgment.Many believers have recently been asking: Is conscious torment biblical? Is hell a place where all the unjust live eternally? In this episode, we step into that very debate—not to inflame controversy, but to carefully examine what the Bible says about the eternal destiny of the lost, the character of God, and the urgency of the gospel.Join us as we discuss the traditional view, as well as Universalism and Annihilationism, in light of what the Bible actually says. For this conversation, we are joined by Dr. Chris Best, instructor of Missiology at the Living Faith Bible Institute.For more information on this topic, please follow the link to read the notes for Episode 269.Visit http://lfbi.org/learnmore

There has been a big shift in America in how men and women decide to get married. In early America, parents had a very high level of authority and responsibility over who their children married. This was partly driven by economic and social factors, where the parents were more concerned about continuing the family line and ensuring that their children and grandchildren would not starve to death than whether the two getting married were emotionally compatible with one another. As time went on and America became wealthier, engagement and marriage became less about financial stability and more of a courtship arrangement. The parents were not arranging the marriages as much as they were overseeing the interests of their children. As we lost our understanding of a biblical worldview, and focused on pleasure rather than duty and obligation, the marriage process has become more about the emotional and physical response to the relationship rather than establishing a productive home where both could safely establish their future. And while some may disagree, we would argue strongly that this modern approach to marriage has failed dramatically. In response, many are choosing to never get married or cohabitating for years, but behaving as if they are married to see if the emotions last, but none of this solves the underlying problems. For the last fifty years, about half of marriages end in divorce, people are not happier in their relationships and their families, and marriage rates have declined significantly. So let's start off with a question: why is dating such a terrible way to establish marriages?Thumbnail image by Jack Pearce under CC BY-SA 2.0Production of Reformation Baptist Church of Youngsville, NCPermanent Hosts - Dan Horn, Charles Churchill and Joshua HornTechnical Director - Timothy KaiserTheme Music - Gabriel Hudelson

https://www.uncommen.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/May-8th.mp3 Quick Answers What does the bible say about mental health when facing severe burnout? To understand what does the bible say about mental health, we must look at how God addresses extreme human frailty. Even great heroes of the faith, like the prophet Elijah, experienced severe burnout, paralyzing fear, and emotional collapse. Instead of demanding immediate spiritual perfection, God provided practical physical rest and nourishment. This shows that our minds and bodies are deeply connected, and aggressively resting is a divine mandate, not a personal weakness. Is admitting I am struggling a sign of spiritual failure? Absolutely not. Admitting that you are entirely exhausted is an incredible feat of courage. The modern church often falsely equates emotional exhaustion with a severe lack of faith, but Scripture is entirely filled with strong men—like King David—who openly expressed deep internal turmoil. Violently bottling up your internal struggles behind a religious facade only leads to dangerous isolation. How can a man practically implement biblical rest today? Just as Jesus intentionally withdrew from demanding crowds to pray and sleep, modern men must aggressively schedule daily and weekly rest stops for their minds. Furthermore, overcoming mental exhaustion requires finding a highly trusted brother to honestly discuss your internal pressure, rather than carrying the weight of the world alone. What Does the Bible Say About Mental Health? Whenever guys ask what does the bible say about mental health, they are usually at the end of their rope, completely exhausted, and desperately looking for relief. For decades, the concept of psychological well-being was treated by many men as completely taboo, especially within the walls of the church. If you asked a guy how he was doing, the answer was practically always a robotic and heavily guarded "doing fine, brother," regardless of how much his internal world was violently crumbling. We built this carefully constructed, impenetrable facade where everything had to constantly look like rainbows and sunshine. If you admitted you were deeply struggling, feeling entirely depleted, or fighting serious internal battles, you were quietly viewed as weak or somehow lacking in faith. But as the pressures of the modern world have drastically multiplied, men are hitting a massive wall of emotional and physical exhaustion. The absolute truth is that God never intended for you to carry the crushing weight of the world on your shoulders while silently grinning through the agonizing pain. When we start actively pulling back the heavy layers of religious tradition and carefully examine what does the bible say about mental health, we discover a deeply compassionate, highly practical blueprint for masculine resilience. The biblical text does not shy away from the gritty realities of the human mind. To help you navigate this massive topic, we have broken down 7 proven and powerful truths regarding what does the bible say about mental health so you can step off the exhausting treadmill of perfectionism. 1. Admitting You Are Not Okay Is An Act Of Strength One of the most dangerous, pervasive lies modern Christian men believe is that vulnerability is the exact same thing as failure. We incorrectly assume that a strong, godly man must have a mind like a steel trap—impervious to heavy stress, unaffected by grief, and completely immune to burnout. We falsely think that if we just read our Bibles more and pray harder, our intense anxiety will miraculously evaporate into thin air. However, when exploring what does the bible say about mental health, we quickly find that admitting "I am not okay" is actually an incredible feat of spiritual strength. True biblical masculinity is not about faking absolute perfection; it is about acknowledging your severe human limitations and actively submitting those limitations to a sovereign God. If you flatly refuse to admit you are struggling, you are actively choosing to let pride completely destroy your internal sanctum. We act as if the great heroes of our faith walked around with permanent, unbreakable smiles plastered on their faces. But a quick, honest glance at the Psalms completely shatters that ridiculous illusion. David frequently penned words of profound despair, openly expressing his deep anguish. To fully grasp what does the bible say about mental health, you must actively recognize that God deeply welcomes our raw, unfiltered honesty. 2. Even Great Prophets Hit The Wall To vividly illustrate how heavily the Scriptures address extreme human frailty, we have to look directly at one of the most powerful and uncompromising prophets in the Old Testament. In 1 Kings 19, we witness what we can appropriately call "The Elijah Syndrome." Elijah had just experienced an unprecedented, miraculous victory on Mount Carmel. You would naturally think he would be on a permanent, unbreakable spiritual high. Yet, immediately after this massive triumph, he receives a death threat from Queen Jezebel, and his entire mental fortitude completely collapses. He runs deep into the desolate wilderness, completely exhausted and utterly terrified. He hits "the wall" so incredibly hard that he collapses under a tree and literally asks God to end his life. This intense narrative directly answers the question of what does the bible say about mental health when one of God's greatest generals wants to give up. The Elijah Syndrome definitively proves that no matter how many massive spiritual victories you have under your belt, you are never immune to the crushing, heavy weight of a fallen world. 3. Physical Rest Is A Divine Mandate The gentle, highly practical response from God to Elijah in this specific passage is absolutely critical for modern men to understand today. When we aggressively seek out what does the bible say about mental health in the midst of total, life-altering burnout, we must carefully observe what God purposely did not do. God did not strike Elijah with a bolt of lightning for his apparent lack of faith. He did not harshly yell at him or call him a coward. Instead, God provided an incredibly practical, deeply physical solution to a severe mental breakdown. He graciously gave the exhausted prophet a hot meal and essentially told him to take a long, restorative nap. Because when looking into what does the bible say about mental health, we realize that God intricately designed our physical bodies and our complex minds to work in perfect tandem. You absolutely cannot separate your profound physical exhaustion from your spiritual capacity. Sometimes, the absolute most spiritual thing a man can do is drink a large glass of water, step entirely away from his relentless email inbox, and go to sleep for eight hours. We too often try to hyper-spiritualize our extreme burnout, blaming the devil for spiritual attacks that are actually the direct result of our own stubborn refusal to rest. 4. God Provides Rhythms Of Grace In the New Testament, Jesus addresses this exact, widespread epidemic of physical and mental weariness directly. In Matthew 11:28, He issues a profound, wide-open invitation: “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” This is not a polite, optional suggestion; it is a vital, non-negotiable command for your ongoing survival. Yet, men constantly ignore this direct command, foolishly treating their chronic lack of sleep and endless stress as a twisted masculine badge of honor. We look at our completely packed calendars and proudly boast about how incredibly busy we are. But when we pause to reflect on what does the bible say about mental health, we see that Jesus intentionally operated in a completely different, highly sustainable rhythm. Christ purposefully established necessary Rhythms of Grace. Despite having the absolute most important mission in human history with a strict three-year time limit, He regularly and intentionally withdrew from the massive, demanding crowds to quietly pray and rest. He absolutely did not allow the frantic demands of the people to dictate His internal peace. 5. Isolation Is A Dangerous Enemy Beyond the glaring necessity of physical rest, we must heavily address the toxic, silent isolation that currently plagues millions of modern men. A massive part of the current psychological crisis is directly tied to the uncomfortable fact that guys simply do not have genuine, deeply connected friends. We might have casual acquaintances at work or men we greet in the church lobby, but we severely lack brothers who know the actual truth about our daily lives. When thoroughly researching what does the bible say about mental health, the absolute requirement of deep, authentic community is entirely inescapable. We were never designed to fight the brutal, unseen battles of the mind in solitary confinement. The enemy aggressively thrives in the cold darkness of our isolation, whispering devastating lies that we are the only ones struggling with paralyzing anxiety, failing marriages, or crushing depression. You simply cannot overcome severe mental exhaustion if you violently refuse to let anyone see your messy reality. 6. Vulnerability Creates Iron-Sharpening Community Proverbs 27:17 famously states that iron sharpens iron, but this vital sharpening process inherently requires close, incredibly uncomfortable friction. The exhausting facade of the completely perfect Christian man is destroying us from the inside out. When we bottle everything up, lying to everyone by pretending our lives are perfectly fine, we become incredibly fragile and prone to sudden collapse. Finding out what does the bible say about mental health forces us to step directly out of the shadows and into the blazing light. It forces us to drop the heavy, useless armor of pride, look another man in the eye, and openly ask for help....

Jesus said go and disciple the nations. But what does that look like when you are working for a woke company, sitting in a classroom, or watching Christian influence roll back in real time? Kevin and Josh walk through the biblical case for cultural transformation, why it starts with regeneration and not legislation, and what faithfulness looks like even when you cannot see the results.

If you ask ten different people on the street to define modern manhood, you are entirely guaranteed to get ten wildly different—and likely contradictory—answers. For men today, trying to figure out how to act, lead, and exist in the modern world feels like trying to hit a moving target while blindfolded.

Should adult daughters pursue careers outside the home, or prioritize the household? Kevin and Josh examine Proverbs 31, Titus 2, and the biblical pattern of the family economy, asking whether modern work structures have pulled women away from their primary sphere of influence.
