This week, Chris and Rich discuss a hit-piece article published by Baptist News Global against Texas pastor Tom Buck. Christians must be aware that even just “reporting the facts” can be manipulated to lead readers to predetermined conclusions. It is the Christian’s duty to ask questions about what is being said and what is being excluded.

This week, Andrew Rappaport of Striving for Eternity joins Chris to discuss how Christians need to consider what is the source of their authority when they engage in conservative politics. Are the end goals of political activism more important than God’s Word and what compromises do we make when we ally ourselves with secular conservatives?

Andrew Rappaport – Political Activism: A Christian’s Role

This week, Chris is joined by Chris Huff of the Matter of Theology podcast. They break down the Shepherds’ Conference 2022 and discuss the sermons and training that occurred with 3500 men of God, from around the world, over 3 days at Grace Community Church.

This week, Rich and Chris continue their discussion of the compromises BigEva makes with the world. Ecumenical partnerships with false religions and ideologies for worldly gain must be avoided in the Christian walk. No social or political gain is worth corrupting the purity of the gospel.

It’s a Rewind episode as we look at when Chris and Rich discussed statements by well-known evangelicals such as J. D. Greear and Beth Moore which indicate a move to redefine what makes a church biblical.

This week, Chris and Rich look at recent examples of unbiblical attitudes and practices (as evidenced by persons such as Ed Stetzer, Beth Moore, Russell Moore, David French, and others) which demonstrate the “BigEva” machine is not an institution ordained by God. Christians must return to submitting to the one entity and institution ordained by Christ Himself, the local church.
