Biblical Love vs Cultural Love: Rejoicing in the Truth

The Storyline of Scripture and the Christian Worldview

The Bible does not merely give Christians isolated truths. Scripture gives us the true story of reality: creation, fall, redemption, and consummation. In this Weekly Watch episode of Contending for the Word, Dave Jenkins explains how this biblical storyline shapes the Christian worldview and helps believers think clearly in a confused age. This episode considers why reality begins with God, why the world is broken because of sin, why redemption comes through Christ alone, and why Christians can live with stability and hope as they await the return of Christ.

Self-Made Spirituality and the Freedom Only Christ Gives

Self-made spirituality promises freedom, authenticity, and personal meaning, but Scripture shows that true freedom is never found in self-definition. It is found only in submission to the truth of God's Word and the Lordship of Jesus Christ. In this episode of Contending for the Word, Dave Jenkins examines how modern spirituality reshapes truth, identity, and freedom around the self, why this worldview leads to confusion and bondage, and how Christians can remain anchored in Christ with clarity, conviction, compassion, and biblical discernment.

Why Scripture Must Remain Supreme in the Christian Life

Many voices today claim to speak for God through new revelation, personal impressions, or powerful spiritual experiences. But Christians are not left to chase new words, shifting feelings, or unstable authorities. God has spoken finally, fully, and sufficiently in His Word. In this episode of Contending for the Word, Dave Jenkins explains why Scripture must remain supreme in the Christian life. When the authority of the Word of God is weakened, doctrine becomes unstable, discernment becomes unclear, and the church becomes vulnerable to deception. This episode considers the danger of placing personal experience, prophetic claims, or modern revelation alongside Scripture and calls Christians to test every teaching, experience, and claim by the Word of God.

The New Apostolic Reformation and the Sufficiency of Scripture

Dave Jenkins and Dawn Hill discuss the New Apostolic Reformation, prophetic culture, modern apostles and prophets, and the need for Christians to test everything according to the authority and sufficiency of Scripture. This episode addresses claims of fresh revelation, apostolic authority, the Seven Mountain Mandate, worship, experience-driven spirituality, and offers gospel hope for those coming out of false teaching.

Why Worldview Matters for the Christian Life

Everyone has a worldview, whether they realize it or not. The real question is whether that worldview is shaped by God's Word or by the culture around us. In this episode of Contending for the Word, Dave Jenkins explains why worldview matters for the Christian life. A worldview shapes how we understand truth, identity, morality, suffering, sin, obedience, and discipleship. God's Word calls Christians not to be conformed to this world, but to be transformed by the renewing of the mind. This episode also explains the biblical framework of creation, fall, redemption, and consummation, showing why Christians must remain grounded in God's Word, committed to the local church, and steady in Christ in a confused age.
