Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Her Theology, I'm joined by theologian and ethicist Dr Andrew Sloane to discuss voluntary assisted dying, euthanasia, physician-assisted suicide, palliative care, dignity, suffering and the Christian view of death.Voluntary assisted dying is now legal across most of Australia, and the conversation is only growing. But how should Christians think about it? Is euthanasia an act of compassion? What is the difference between voluntary assisted dying, palliative care, withdrawing treatment and physician-assisted suicide? And what does Scripture teach us about human dignity, suffering, autonomy, community and death?In this conversation, we discuss: the difference between euthanasia, physician-assisted suicide and voluntary assisted dying  why palliative care is not the same as euthanasia  where voluntary assisted dying laws currently sit in Australia  why Canada and the Netherlands raise serious ethical concerns  autonomy, suffering and the slippery slope argument  whether Christians should support voluntary assisted dying  what it means to die with dignity  the difference between prolonging life and prolonging dying  why medicine should be understood as care, not just cure  how Christians should think about death as an enemy  the biblical basis for human dignity and the image of God  why community matters when we care for the dying  how the church can tell better stories about death, care and hope This is a deeply personal and theological conversation about one of the most important ethical issues facing Australia today.If you are wrestling with questions around euthanasia, assisted dying, palliative care, end-of-life care, suffering, medical ethics or Christian bioethics, this episode will help you think biblically, carefully and compassionately.Topics covered: voluntary assisted dying, euthanasia, physician-assisted suicide, palliative care, Christian ethics, medical ethics, dignity, death, suffering, end-of-life care, pro-life ethics, Australia VAD laws, Canada euthanasia laws, Christian view of death, image of God, autonomy, community and care.Articles and links mentioned:https://www.morling.edu.au/staff/andrew-sloanehttps://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03-29/annaliese-holland-opens-up-voluntary-assisted-dying/106503200https://publicchristianity.org/author/andrewsloane/Follow @hertheology on Instagram & YouTube. Head to hertheology.com to find out more.

CarsonThe Secret to Preparing for Suffering - Kristin Wetherrell4 Reasons to be of Good Courage in Suffering - Kristin WetherrellDon't Peter Out - Swindoll6 Pillars of a Christian View on Suffering - D.A. CarsonStott on Suffering and Glory in the Cross - John StottINTRODUCTION: All Scripture is ProfitableA Final Perspective on SufferingChristian suffering is temporary and purposeful.• Temporary: Your suffering will not last forever. (5:10a).• Sovereign: Our gracious God has a long term plan for our glory (5:10b).• Purposeful: God uses suffering to restore, establish, strengthen, & ground us (5:10c).• Praise - God's sovereign purpose and grace prompt our praise (5:11).A Final Perspective on Partners and PeaceGod's grace is where we stand when times are tough.• The Letter: A message about the true grace of God (5:12a).• The Exhortation: Stand firm on the foundation of God's grace in suffering (5:12b).• The Greetings: Partners in ministry care for one another (5:13).• The Benediction: Be affectionate and rest in the peace of God (5:14).In the final analysis, when Christians sufferthey can trust that God is sovereign, suffering grows us,and God' grace is sufficient for everything we experience.Suffering SpeaksBut pain insists upon being attended to.God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience,but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world. C.S. Lewis (The Problem of Pain)Home Church Questions1. Temporary SufferingPeter says that we “suffer for a little while.” Share a story or two of people whose suffering puts your own suffering in perspective as “for a little while.” Think about missionaries in persecuted areas who live theirwhole lives under threat, or someone like Joni Eareckson Tada, who has walked faithfully with the Lord for 76 years now, almost 60 of those years as a quadriplegic.2. Restored, Established, Strengthened and GroundedGod has a purpose for our suffering, and it is not always to alleviate it. How has God used suffering in your life to accomplish the purposes set forth in this passage? How have you been equipped, solidified, bolstered,and grounded?3. To Him be the “power” forever, Amen.Usually, we would expect the word “glory” where we read “power” or “dominion.” Why is “power” appropriate? Karen Jobes claims that God's eternal might “makes Roman glory look like a withered flower.”When have you experienced this?4. Stand Fast in the True Grace of God.Peter says his purpose was to encourage his readers. Have you been encouraged by this book? How? How do we “Stand fast in the true grace of God?”5. A Final Look Back:As we finish the book of 1 Peter, think back over the messages and flip through the passages. What encouragements have you taken with you? In what way does 1 Peter provide a unique message that you need?UPG FOCUS: The Amma Kenanga in India The Amma Kodaga are a small Hindu people group living in the hilly regions of southern India, where they farm crops like coffee and spices and live in close-knit, tradition-rich communities. Though the New Testament is available in their language, there are no known believers among them. Pray that they would be drawn to Jesus, that disciples would be raised up among them, and that workers would go to share the gospel.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 04/12 22,618Giving For 04/19 40,027YTD Budget 1,453,846Giving 1,776,190 OVER/(UNDER) 322,344 Easter OfferingAt Fellowship, we've seen firsthand how something as simple as a van can open doors for ministry—serving students, supporting outreach, and making it easier for people to connect and belong. For years, we've relied on rentals, but the need has been clear: having our own van would expand what's possible in powerful, practical ways. This is an opportunity to invest in something that will be used again and again to serve others. Every mile driven will represent lives reached, needs met, and community built.

Sports aren't just games; they reveal our character. In Part 2 of our sports conversation, we turn our attention to sports betting, ethics, and the growing normalization of gambling in American culture. Should Christians participate in sports betting? Is it sinful, or is it more of a wisdom issue? We explore what the Bible says about money, character, gambling, competition, and self-control, and discuss how modern betting apps are designed to keep users hooked. From questions of justice and addiction to playing by the rules and losing with grace, this episode examines how faith should shape the way we engage with sports culture today. Did you miss the first half of our sports conversation? Listen here.

Is it sinful to be competitive? Does God care who wins games? How do we know when sports, particularly kids sports, have become an idol? In this sixth episode of our Not Just Sacred series, we're kicking off part one of our conversation about sports. Hear Keith and Patrick explore the goodness of competition, the effects of sin on rivalry and pride, and how athletics can reflect discipline, excellence, and teamwork. We also address youth sports and church participation, asking how families can pursue sports without neglecting Christian community. We hope this episode offers a biblical framework for thinking about sports without over-spiritualizing (or underestimating) them.

This Week at Genesis | A Christian View of Money Money promises security without dependence. But Jesus invites us into something deeper — a life of trustful stewardship under God. This week, Stu shared vulnerably from his own story — how God has used generosity to reshape his trust, loosen his grip, and invite him into deeper stewardship. Not obligation. Not pressure. But participation. In Gospel of Matthew 14, a young boy offers a simple lunch — five loaves and two fish. It doesn't look like much. Yet when placed in the hands of Jesus, it becomes more than enough. Whatever we have, large or small, is simply our lunch. We offer it. God multiplies it. As a church family, we've seen this firsthand — lives shaped, needs met, and resources released for the sake of the gospel. The question beneath it all is quiet but confronting: If someone looked at how you use money, what would it reveal about your trust? Where is your next step?   About Genesis Costa Mesa We are a Jesus-centered community on mission, shaped by the table, worship, prayer, story, and mission. Together we seek to bring the gospel to the nations, raise up leaders, and plant new Jesus-communities—living as the church both locally and globally.

Send us a textVIDEO PODCAST HERE Baptism in restoration culture has been associated with joining "the true church".  We even have a prayer we say while laying hands on a person after the water baptism often referred to as "the confirmation" confirming one a member of "the church".  The Book of Mormon  adds depth and understanding to the act of baptism.  It connects it on a very deep yet simple level to repentance.   Baptism is often looked at as an act that "saves you" and allows you entrance into the Kingdom of God.  There are various views among different christian organizations as to what baptism actually is. Is it  necessary or not?   Is it an afterthought, a choice, a commandment?   Does it save you?   The additional clarity that comes from the Book of Mormon leaves no room for misunderstanding.  Baptism doesn't save you, repentance does, by allowing the blood of CHRIST to wash you clean.  Baptism is the first fruit of that repentance.  http://www.restoredgospel.com/PODCASTLINKS/TheDeeperMeaningofBaptism.pdf Restored Gospel - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett

Lewis's “God as Builder” metaphor• How God renovates hearts just like a master craftsman rebuilds a house• What Scripture says about our ontological status as humans—superior yet subordinate• How secularism distorts human dignity (and why the Christian worldview restores it)• The connection between creation, redemption, and the true “Temple” of GodKey Scriptures:– 2 Corinthians 5:17– 2 Timothy 2:20–23– Acts 17:28– 1 Corinthians 6:19–20– Romans 1:18–25Resources Mentioned:– C.S.

This episode begins with a narrative of the host on a Christian view of the Second Amendment folding right into part 3 of 3 in Ortega v. Grisham (19 August 2025, 10th Circuit). "[T]he waiting period is just an artificial delay on possession" (p. 20), "a standardless, temporary disarmament measure" (p.21) according to the Republican federal appeals court judges on the 10th Circuit, appointed by Trump and Bush. This is part 3 of a 3-part series following the injunctive relief individuals got on 19 August 2025, when the US 10th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the Democrat Legislature in New Mexico on the 7-day "cooling off period" wait for firearms. And the 3 judge panel split along Republican/Democrat lines , 2 to 1, with both George W. Bush and Trump Republicans on the same side of the Constitution against an Obama judge. Here's a link to the decision. https://www.ca10.uscourts.gov/sites/ca10/files/opinions/010111284574.pdf We finish that story in this part 3 of 3 part series here on The Republican Professor podcast.

Hello listeners! Thank you for joining us for this intriguing discussion on physical death and resurrection.

Christians should give thanks for a “Christian” outcome in a judicial dispute over a particular parental right, but I believe that is not enough. I believe the end or telos of a Christian view of law would strive to restore in law parental rights as an authority delegated by God with a prescribed jurisdiction give for certain ends—”godly offspring” (Malachi 2:15). Today I explain the legislative proposal I offered Tennessee’s legislature that would moved law in that direction.

Today episode provides a brief historical snapshot showing how the US. Supreme Court now thinks of "marriage" in relation to the law, how it used to think of marriage, and how Christ specifically informed that law less than 200 years ago. Seeing the transition from the presernt to a Christian view of law will be shocking, as it once was to me.

Today David talks about what he learned six months ago that is fundamental to the "secret" behind a Christian view of law. It helped him see why his worldview was more informed by Darwin and Nietzsche than Christ, and it further reformed his approach to legal and public policy advocacy.

Did you know that a Christian view of law hinges on a secret that God only makes known to those who fear him? Psalm 25:14 says, “The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.” Today, David explains how a Christian cosmology of law is embedded in that verse. And he explains how coming to know that secret after even decades in evangelical churches awakened him from the Nietzschean cosmology that had informed his view of politics and law for decades.

What is a Christian view of law? According to Romans 7:14, the answer depends on one’s metaphysics. Today David explains why some Christians would find such an answer too philosophical and speculative sounding to be Christian, even perhaps even unbiblical. But Herman Bavinck and Abraham Kuyper told us more than 100 years ago this would happen. Kuyper even saw the Calvinism he loved grinding to a metaphysical halt.

Today’s episode is an “extra” for this week in anticipation of Friday’s podcast on “A Christian View of Law.” It is a sermon David preached on Psalm 25:14 in November 2023 to re-ignite the imagination of those who might have lost the wonder of the “secret” God reveals to “those who fear him.” David's story as a member of a secret society for BMOCs and Chesterton's "Ethics in Elfland" expose how easily we can easliy lose ourselves in a made-up "real" world.
