One Right Church

What is Worth Splitting Over?

Every One Right Church thinks they are the One Right Church. (Of course!) That means they have split from other churches, or others have separated from them. Eventually, you end up with One Right Church...or several. In this episode, we discuss what is worth dividing over. Are all issues equal? How do you decide what is worth separating over? We use a simple triage rule. There are things to die for, divide for, debate for, and decide for. We hope this helps you give the right issues the right importance.

What is Faith? (E)

What is faith and how do I know if I have it? How do you know if you have enough? Trust, Faith, Belief. That is the topic of this episode. Let us know if this prompts any thoughts or questions!

Episode 100

In our 100th episode, we revisit recurring themes and ongoing challenges from the first 100 episodes. We will always return to a few things: * Salvation is by grace apart from our works. * You can be sure of your salvation because it comes to you by the merit of Christ, not your own merit. It is as good as Christ, not as good as your works. * God is not like us. He is perfect and doesn't grade on a curve. * Making secondary things primary is a continual temptation. * Separation from family always hurts and feels unnecessary. We are happy to have reached this 100th milestone, and we hope it has been helpful.

Cindy’s Dad (E)

This encore episode is one of our favorites. Mark’s wife, Cindy, joins us to share part of her story. Years after having nothing to do with her dad, she experiences a glorious reconciliation with him. Reconciliation and forgiveness are always possible. There is always hope that relationships can be healed!

The Ark of Safety

We received historical documents from the Followers of Christ Church, including notes from the 1937 Conference. We talked about this in the last episode. One of the lines in those documents called the church "The Ark of Safety." If you are in the Ark, that is the church, you are saved. In this episode, we discuss how believing you are in the ark gives a false sense of security. We talk about the recent tragic death of a young man. More than anything, we want to urge you to find Jesus to be the Ark of your Safety, not any church. Only Jesus saves.
