Is It a Sin If the Bible Doesn’t Mention It?

Have I Made a Difference?

At some point in life, many people start asking deeper questions. Did my life matter? Did I make a difference? Did I really do enough for God? In this episode of FaithFuel with Bob Shaw, Bob talks about legacy, faithfulness, and why God often measures impact very differently than the world does. Using Galatians 6:9 and Matthew 25:21, this devotional encourages listeners not to measure significance by fame, recognition, or visibility, but by everyday faithfulness over time. Because some of the greatest impact in life happens quietly through simple acts of obedience, encouragement, kindness, prayer, and pointing people toward Christ.

What Is Love, Anyway?

The world talks constantly about love. Songs, movies, relationships, emotions, attraction — everybody uses the word. But what does real love actually look like? In this episode of FaithFuel with Bob Shaw, Bob talks about the difference between cultural ideas of love and the kind of love described in the Bible. From infatuation and relationships to sacrifice, forgiveness, truth, grace, and the example of Jesus, this devotional explores why biblical love is deeper than emotion alone. Using 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 and Romans 5:8, this episode encourages listeners to see love not just as a feeling, but as something that reflects the very character of God.

What Does the Bible Mean by Predestination?

Predestination is one of the most debated and misunderstood topics in Christianity. Do people really have free will? Did God choose certain people before the world began? And why do faithful Christians disagree about this so much? In this episode of FaithFuel with Bob Shaw, Bob talks about what the Bible means by predestination, why God’s sovereignty and human responsibility both appear in Scripture, and why this topic should lead believers toward humility and trust instead of fear and division. Using Ephesians 1:4–5 and John 6:44, this devotional encourages listeners to trust the wisdom and goodness of God even when every question does not have a simple answer.

Why Are There So Many Strange Things in the Bible?

Talking donkeys. Giant fish. Floating axe heads. The Bible contains supernatural events that can sound strange to modern ears. In this episode of FaithFuel, Bob Shaw talks about why supernatural passages in Scripture should not weaken our faith, but instead remind us how much greater God is than human understanding. This devotional explores miracles, the limits of human understanding, the power of God, fantasy literature, eternity, and why an infinite God should not be reduced to what feels explainable to us.

Religion vs Relationship With Jesus

You’ve probably heard people say, “Christianity isn’t about religion. It’s about relationship.” But what does that actually mean? In this episode of FaithFuel, Bob Shaw shares his own experience growing up in the Catholic faith and talks about the difference between outward religion and genuine relationship with Jesus Christ. This devotional explores grace, salvation, obedience, prayer, church tradition, and why Christianity was never meant to become a performance-based system of trying to earn God’s approval.
