The Power and Pain of Rejection (Replay)

The Power and Pain of Rejection (Replay)

This has been on our minds again. It never really leaves. In this encore episode, we discuss the doctrine of rejection. Followers of Christ, like other groups, practice shunning or rejection because it was taught from the beginning. We look at the teaching and biblical ideas behind that practice.

When a Dream Doesn’t Fit in the One Right Church

Cole Crone had his life mapped out for him. It just wasn't the life that he wanted. If he played the part, the future was very predictable. He dreamed of a different part. That dream led him out of the One Right Church and into college. We think you'll enjoy hearing about his unconventional path as much as we did. Cole has a podcast of his own called Clear Path Christianity [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/clear-path-christianity/id1882209526]. You'll want to hear what he has to say!

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.
