In today's rapid fire edition of “You Asked For It,” pastor Dan responds to more of your questions, including: Why don't we see miracles like in the book of Acts? Would Jesus forgive the devil?

Jesus said to love your enemies, turn the other cheek, and to pray for those who persecute you. But does that mean we can never use force under any circumstances? In this post Memorial Day episode, Frank explores what the Bible says about protecting ourselves and others from evil. With insights from Scripture and history, Frank examines real-world examples of Just War and explains why, in a fallen world, force is sometimes not only permissible, but necessary. Tune in as he answers questions like:Would Jesus ever condone violence? If so, what did He mean when He said to "turn the other cheek"?Why is complete pacifism unbiblical and a dereliction of duty?What is the proper use of the sword according to the Bible?Where do our rights come from and what are the 3 institutions that God created?What are the 6 attributes of a Just War according to Augustine?What are the 7 reasons when using force may be necessary?How does this all relate to events happening in Gaza and Israel right now?What could President Lincoln possibly say to comfort a mother who lost five sons in the Civil War?Freedom is never free. Don't miss this Gospel-centered reflection on self-defense and warfare as we honor those who sacrificed their lives in service to our country.Resources mentioned during the episode:Jesus and the Case for War - https://bit.ly/4mGuG8bCharlie Kirk vs. Cambridge Student - https://youtu.be/RXuePZj5eU0

Why would a pastor write a theological book on exercise? Would Jesus exercise if he were here bodily today? What does the Bible say about exercise and physical activity? And are Christians sinning if they don't exercise? These are a few of the questions Sean and Scott explore with pastor David Mathis, author of the new book A Little Theology of Exercise. David is senior teacher and executive editor of desiringGod.org, pastor at Cities Church (Saint Paul), and adjunct professor for Bethlehem College & Seminary (Minneapolis).

We live in a time when spirituality, wellness, and self-optimization are increasingly intertwined. Mindfulness, breath work, energy, alignment — these practices and ideas offer people a sense of peace and wholeness. But how do they fit with Jesus? Do they complement his way, conflict with it, or do something else entirely? This week is an invitation to explore how ancient practices and modern wellness trends intersect with Christian spirituality. 

Mel Robbins' viral “Let Them” theory has taken over social media — but as Christians, should we just let people walk away, make poor choices, or live without accountability? In this episode, I react to her video and ask the real question: Is this actually biblical? We'll explore what the Bible says about boundaries, free will, confrontation, and loving others with truth. Did Jesus ever "let them"? Yes — but it's not that simple. LET'S DISCUSS! What do y'all think?! Thanks to my Sponsors!

Thank you for joining us for today's worship service! We live in an turbulent age with rapid social and cultural change. To be faithful followers of Jesus, we need to carefully examine the principles Jesus demonstrated during His time on earth and apply those principles to what we do. Pastor Chris provides three of these principles in today's message, based on the stories of Jesus interacting with Zacchaeus in Luke 19, with the Samaritan woman in John 4, and with the man with the withered hand in Matthew 12. If you prayed to make Jesus your Lord today, we want to rejoice with you! If you would want someone to pray with you, we are eager to do so!

Are we in danger of making provocation the goal, and not the gospel? Is it necessary for people today, in order to get them to think twice about God?The guys react to a recent ministry event in Glasgow, Scotland that sparked a viral backlash on Instagram.The reaction to the event begs the question of whether this happened in a "Book Of Acts" fashion of seeing civil unrest following the preaching of the gospel or whether we are sometimes guilty of causing trouble for no reason, making it the focus and deciding factor of whether or not we are being effective in our ministry endeavors.Check out the Instagram video HERE.----------------------Interested in the Steiger Missions School?

Is it possible to engage in politics as a follower of Jesus without falling into Christian nationalism? Have we often confused faith with an improper allegiance to one's own country?In the church we are often guilty of conflating the laws of our country with the laws of God; allegiance to our nation as allegiance to the Almighty. Where should these things be separated, and where do they overlap - is a healthy balance possible?The regulars react to Donald Trump's heated oval office meeting with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and moreover the current political climate that finds many of us occupied with political battles much more than with the Kingdom of God. ----------------------Do you ever struggle with how to share your faith with those who won't walk into a church?Ben has completely revised and updated his powerful book, Jesus in the Secular World: Reaching a Culture in Crisis—a must-read guide for anyone longing to reach those who may never step foot in a church.

Jesus calls all of his disciples to follow him, which means to obey his teachings and emulate his way of life. We can assess where we are on this journey by looking at what he confronts and what he values.

Can you lose your salvation? Hebrews chapter 6 poses a long debated question in Christianity. When wrestling with questions like these it is important to view them with a Christological hermeneutic. What does Jesus teach on this idea. His parables offer us an effective lens through which to view this question. What we discover is that the problem is that many people taste God's power, but still run away from God's presence. So, when we experience God's power our response must be to follow into a loving relationship with God in obedience.

Melissa Dougherty, author of the brand-new book, 'Happy Lies: How a Movement You (Probably) Never Heard Of Shaped Our Self-Obsessed World', returns to dig even deeper into the surprising and troubling connections between New Thought and the Word of Faith movement and to share names of specific teachers of this false doctrine. Tune in as Frank and Melissa answer questions like:How did the "seeker-friendly" church model begin and why doesn't it work long-term?Does Joel Osteen believe that we're "little gods"?Is it ok to name false teachers?How can New Thought and Word of Faith potentially shipwreck your faith?Would Jesus and the Apostles agree with these teachings?You definitely don't want to miss this eye-opening discussion about the origins of the so-called "Health, Wealth, and Prosperity Gospel".

Questions Covered: 02:01 – At what point do you think pursuing the rights in the second amendment becomes sinful? 08:10 – Are there dinosaurs in the Bible? 12:41 – How does the incarnation not defy divine simplicity? 16:09 – If faith is a grace from God, why does not everyone be given all the grace they need? In the parable of the sower, why isn’t everyone made into good soil, is it simply due to free will that even given all the grace in the world some people for whatever reason would still say no? Thank you for your time, Mr. Akin. 20:05 – With what level of certainty can we say where someone is in the afterlife apart from extraordinary means like canonization. Secondly what are good ways to communicate this appropriate level of certainty to those grieving the loss of someone they love. 29:05 – I travel quite a bit. Missing mass and days of obligation happen unfortunately. Should I seek a dispensation from my pastor? What should my approach be? 34:17 – I understand that the “Law of the Conservation of Mass,” applies to chemical reactions. However, when considering the bodily assumption of our Blessed Mother, and the ascension of Jesus into heaven, how is the Law of the Conservation of Mass applied? I understand that heaven isn’t “somewhere else,” but “somehow else.” Then how is Mass conserved between our physical realm to the spiritual realm where our Lord and Lady exist? 40:25 – How does one justify or condemn the use of nuclear weapons? More specifically how do you weigh the deaths of Japanese children against the potential deaths of American soldiers? (From a Catholic perspective) 48:30 – Would Jesus’ family be considered poor compared to the average family in Nazareth? If so, would that have something to do with not being able to find room at the inn in Bethlehem? 53:03 – I don’t know if this counts as normal or weird, but I’ve started to get into linguistics and I was wondering how we should think of the Tower of Babel story? Thanks! …

Action films have changed shape since the heyday of Stallone, Willis, Gibson, and Schwartzaneger.  More women, more explicit gore, more ethical ambiguity, and more hard-edged nihilism all around. But, what about the vigilantism, the venge-fests, the blood lust, and the pride and reliance on self? Did they include God in the picture, or is all of this to the glory of man? Here is a worldview analysis of action films. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Jimmy Carter, advocate of "gay marriage", died at 100, 179 dead in Korean plane crash, Attacks on Christians in India during Christmas) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson
