Lauren Daigle and the Homosexuality Question

Disclaimer: I'm not here to mistreat Lauren but to try to help with this challenging and contentious issue. I think that Lauren's comments in a recent interview on the Domenick Nati show reflect the struggle that millions of people have on the topic of homosexuality and I hope this video helps. Why is it so hard for some people to openly speak about the issue homosexuality? What does the Bible say about homosexuality being a sin? Is it wise, or biblical to get on the fence on this topic? Here is...

Atheists Can Be Gullible Too

Jim Majors is the CEO for the worldwide group Atheist Republic. He has a new book on the way, refuting Christianity and boy does he have a lot of influence! With over 2 million followers on facebook and a chapter in every state of the US I consider it a kindness to my atheist friends to deal with his claims. He's just not your source for truth guys.

Catholic Apologists Abuse Typology to Teach Mariology: How to find Jesus in the OT pt 15

I'll demonstrate how NOT to do typology by using examples of Catholic apologists twisting the Bible out of shape to squeeze the dogmas about Mary into the scripture. The types of Mary are supposedly the New Eve, the Ark of the New Covenant and the Queen Mother. But when we examine them we see that they not only aren't types, they don't give the dogmas that Catholic apologists pretend they do. From the "New Eve" they want to say that Mary was immaculately conceived (that she was born without sin ...

A Calm and Biblical View of Anger

Honestly, I think this is some pretty basic stuff that many believers have ignored. Surveying some Bible passages on the topic of anger and how we ought to handle it. Specifically, we are told not to bottle it up and not to let it out. But if that's the case, how are Christians supposed to deal with anger? The biblical answer is to "put it off". In other news, here is a link to my recent talk with atheist Skylar Fiction on moral issues and the Bible. https://youtu.be/1kXZSTGdfWw

Amazing! How Jesus is Like the Tabernacle of Moses: How to find Jesus in the OT pt14

A survey of examples of how Jesus is pictured in the Tabernacle of Moses. This is one of my favorite examples of typology! From the bronze altar to the ark of the covenant to the materials used in the coverings of the tabernacle we have wonderful illustrations of the person and work of Christ. Check out my channel for more videos and learn how to think biblically about everything.

Here's Me Using the Bible to Prove the Bible

Many skeptics respond to the evidence for the Bible by ignoring it and saying "You can't use the Bible to prove the Bible". I think there is a sense in which this is true, but there are several senses in which this is false. In this video I will explain 7 (and maybe 8) ways to use the Bible to prove the Bible. Links for you. My recent debate with an Atheist on the Evidence for the Resurrection - https://youtu.be/c5Hq5zyoezE My series on How to Find Jesus in the Old Testament - https://www.youtub...

What Christians Need to Prioritize: Matthew 6:33

If we are going to keep the main thing the main thing in our lives then we need to apply what Jesus said in Matthew 6:33. It has special instructions that should affect every area of our lives. We will examine the meaning and application of, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added to you.”

A Pastor Shares His Thoughts on Halloween

In my opinion, people are often one-sided when dealing with the topic of Halloween (or holidays in general). I hope to add something worthwhile to the conversation as I bring up 7 different issues to consider related to Halloween.

Are Some Sins Worse Than Others? Please don't get this wrong!

Sometimes we hear that "all sin is the same" or that "no sin is worse than any other", but is this biblical? Is it true? We will survey the Bible verses that relate to this issue and try to get a thorough understanding of it. In my opinion, people usually form this opinion based on sound bites instead of on the clear teaching of the Bible. I also think that getting this issue wrong makes us vulnerable to manipulation. Let's get biblical on the topic of sin. Earlier today was interviewed on Doree...
