Dwelling richly in your heart

A listener asks: Is it right to tell my children that Jesus lives in their hearts? While the term has been spoiled, Rev Fisk says it is still a biblical way to speak.

Sacrament vs the lie machine

Our digital overlords (AKA TV and internet) would want to convince us that the government is the head of the Church, but the Mad Christian thinks otherwise.

Rev Fisk speaks about forgiveness versus reconciliation. Forgiving someone doesn't mean you'll be able to trust them again immediately.

Proving their unbelief

Church bodies who are trying to find ways to give women jobs the Bible set aside for men are rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic, as they say. Rev Fisk points out that those in authority who are blurring the lines are showing that they don't believe that men and women are different. Losing that distinction leads to the loss of everything else.

Why we can have nice things

No the Mad Christian has not embraced a prosperity heresy... Asked a question about whether a Christian is free to make a lovely home, Rev Fisk looks at Ecclesiastes 9. Buying nice things is not the same as trusting in stuff to save you. God has accepted you on account of Christ, so you are free to enjoy the fruit of your labor.
