Thank you for listening.

Episode 308: Unanswered Prayers - Part 1

The episode explores why prayers sometimes go unanswered, offering a biblical framework for self‑examination and stronger faith. Pastors Paul and Matthew walk through several scriptural reasons—such as not asking, lack of faith, vague requests, cherished sin, wrong motives, and doubt—emphasizing that prayer is a partnership requiring clarity, obedience, and trust. Their goal is to help believers pray with confidence, specificity, and alignment with God’s word.

Episode 307: Speaking in Tongues

This episode explores the biblical gift of speaking in tongues, addressing common misconceptions and why it's often controversial. Reverend Matthew Deleion and Pastor Paul Chicato explain that tongues are a gift of the Holy Spirit—not a requirement for salvation—and examine what Scripture teaches through Acts 2. They also discuss the purpose of tongues, spiritual gifts, interpretation, and offer practical guidance on receiving and using this gift through faith and prayer.

Episode 306: What About Other Religions- Part 2

The episode continues a discussion on other religions and how their beliefs differ from core Christian doctrine. The hosts focus mainly on Seventh-day Adventists and Jehovah’s Witnesses, explaining where their teachings align with Christianity and where they diverge—especially regarding the Sabbath, the Trinity, the deity of Christ, and the authority of extra‑biblical writings. They emphasize that true rest is found in Christ, not in observing a specific day, and that Christian doctrine must be validated by multiple scriptures, not by the writings of a single person or organization. The episode closes by encouraging discernment, biblical grounding, and avoiding religious traditions that cannot be supported by scripture.

They explain how different beliefs view God, salvation, truth, spiritual warfare, and marriage, while highlighting what sets biblical Christianity apart. The central message is that salvation is found through Jesus Christ alone, encouraging believers to know God's Word, discern truth, and avoid deception.
