Stuff Christians Should Think About

This episode was a challenge to produce, and I’ll share the reasons with you. My hope is that it inspires you to respond with spontaneous compassion when you encounter someone in need, and that you discover the blessings such actions bring to your own heart.

This episode is a short story of a couple of great comebacks that are still special to me, ... one from a woman in the Bible, another from Jesus Himself, and one of the best I heard in my lifetime,

This episode explores the differences in understanding the differences between Choice, Will, Willpower, & Freewill 

This short episode explores a new way of thinking about Pro-Life in light of God's Old Testament instructions to kill many nations of people. 

I present this subject upon request that I do. I willingly agreed since this is for those who grew up in a Christian environment, like I did and today still ponder when, and if Christians should abstain from drinking any kind of alcohol or participate in dancing. 

This episode is to help us all understand the history of the word Woke and the many historical contexts it emerged from. Once understanding the multiple meanings and variations of the word Woke, we then can use what the Bible contains in regard to the precepts of Injustice.

Think, Pray, and then if you must, be bold and Poke the Bear. This episode reveals the risk of poking the bear of other Christians or leaders. I share when I was poked in the past, what I learned from it, and how it impacted my life then. I hope that the times I poked the bear of other Christians prior to my podcasts and maybe even during my podcasts will serve as good examples of how and when Christians should do the same, if a worthy outcome has a good chance of prevailing. I end this episode asking...

This episode begins with some history of where the phrase Separation of Church and State originated from that might surprise some folks. After understanding the history of our Bill of Rights, I then challenge the "Church" and their priest or pastors to stick with what the Bible teaches about mixing politics from the pulpit, which the Bible does not say much of anything. Jesus and the apostle Paul did not get into governmental politics and nor should we, at least not from the pulpit. I will reveal in this episode where and how it can be done within the...

This episode of my former rejection of Trump's leadership began over 23 years ago, never dreaming he would become President. Now that he has become president twice, here is the journey of my mind in regard to him, the details of which I think worth pondering. It might change part of your opinion of him. It might be similar in ways opponents like me once thought, and where supporters of him then and now, might consider. 

This episode explores what hate looks like today in the continuing trend downward in political discourse. I also cover If and when biblically permissible, and how Christians should think about who, or what they hate, and why. This is not about why I hate Brussel Sprouts!!! 

This is about an email from one of my African American friends that questioned Charlie Kirk as being a Christian and his apparent dismissive perspective of my previous podcast entitled "A Tribute to Charlie Kirk

This episode is a tribute to Charlie Kirk who was assassinated a week ago. This tribute includes extensive excerpts that were posted on FB by Peter J. Scaer that so much resembled my own thoughts.  While producing this episode I asked him for his blessing to use much of what he wrote within  2 of his posts as the main focus of this episode, with a few of my own thoughts inserted.  Please accept this podcast as a tribute to Charlie, his wife and family, and to all that gain access to it.  

This is an episode for Christian leaders to become more award of themselves and their management practices and how Jesus explains by parable how much shrewdness is permissible. 

War, huh, yeah - What is it good for? - Absolutely ______________.  Those lyrics are the beginning and throughout Edwin Star's 1970 War protest song called WAR. This episode is to help the Christian fill in the blank.  It is also for Christians to reflect on wars recorded in the Bible, Current Wars in Ukraine, and in Gaza Strip. I attempt to explain how the theory of what is called Just War Theory has developed and changed over centuries and what the collateral damage might look like depending on the Christians current worldview of war.

This Trailer will supply the overall purpose of the show and what to expect in upcoming episodes.
