"Service with a smile!" This slogan is used in a lot of businesses, but that service is their job. What about the Christian? In this episode, Tim and Matt discuss what true service is: sacrificial work for the betterment of others. The Bible does more than reveal the way to eternal salvation; it details what the ideal godly life is supposed to be characterized by. If Jesus came to serve and not be served (Mark 10:45), then this is what is expected from His followers. Passages – Romans 12:9-14...

The world today seems to have a degradation in morality. In response to this, Christians must raise kids to be polite and always act on their best behavior to set them apart, right?

Moral people still do not line up to God's standard, so there must be another way to achieve lives that bring God praise, glory, and honor. Listen to find ...

The world is hostile to God and His children, so how should Christian parents approach dealing with the many voices telling them that their parenting is outdated or abusive? In this episode, Tim and Matt finish their study of Psalm 3 by focusing on how God grants rest and deals with sin in the culture. Do not be afraid to stand on biblical truth because it is God who brings salvation. Sin causes disruption, but God brings rest to the weary. Passages – Psalm 3:5-8; 1 John 5:14-17 As of posting...
