Many of us have lost friends or family members to suicide. A recent caller to the program experienced this tragedy and asked if those who commit suicide are cast into hell.Most Catholics believe a cleansing of sin before death is required. But those who get depressed or suffer from mental illness and take their lives don’t have time for a last-minute confession.In this episode, I share about the unpardonable sin, the sin leading to death, and whether suicide is a disqualifier for salvation.We hope you enjoyed this episode.

The Christian airwaves are inundated with misleading teaching on the topic of healing. Some suggest we should “name” or “claim” healing from God. Others misuse Bible verses like, “…by His stripes we are healed,” to declare physical healing is a right for believers. God certainly can and still does heal today. But we believers shouldn’t be barking orders at God (such a message is an enemy of the Cross!). Instead, we can learn to live open-handed, recognizing the wisdom and care of our God.For anyone suffering from a physical ailment, check out this episode and learn where you can find true peace and confidence no matter what you’re going through!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Some Bible teaching can leave us confused about whether a Christian is a sinner or a saint. We read verses referring to believers as holy and blameless, and yet we still commit sins. Even the Apostle Paul called himself “the chief of sinners.” So, are Christians sinners, saints, or a mix of both? This was Andre’s question, a recent caller to the radio broadcast. In this episode, I address the source of this confusion and share what the New Testament says about a believer’s identity. You’ll be inspired by God’s perspective as you learn the important distinction between who you were and who you are now!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Piercings and tattoos are increasingly common in our culture, but they still generate strong opinions within some Christian circles.Leviticus 19:28 states that we shouldn’t add marks to our body, but a recent radio caller asked about several New Testament passages that might indicate otherwise.In this episode, I address whether a believer can get a tattoo. The answer is an important window into understanding hundreds of other Old Covenant regulations and prohibitions – including tithing, observing the Sabbath, and more – and why Christians cannot view the Law like a restaurant buffet line!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Pornography addiction is a struggle for many. A recent caller to our radio program asked if God would forgive him for repeatedly committing this same sin.Thankfully, children of God don’t have to doubt their forgiveness, and I explain why in this episode. I also address the healthy choices necessary for finding freedom from pornography, and why recognizing the source of sinful thoughts is critical to saying “no” to sin and “yes” to who you really are: a slave of righteousness!We hope you enjoyed this episode.
