<p>In this episode we discuss the problem with hyper focusing on the sins and failures of others. Imagine what the world wold look like if we focused on building for the future instead of overturning the rubble of the past! </p> <p>The post <a href="https://sheologians.com/tearing-it-all-down/">Tearing it all Down</a> appeared first on <a href="https://sheologians.com">Sheologians</a>.</p>

<p>If God had different plans, if you had said that thing, if you had completed that task, if you had done something differently, wouldn't everything just be so perfect? At least, that's what our flesh tells us. In this episode we talk what to do with regret.

<p>One morning in March, a horrible scene is stumbled upon in an unlikely place. A high-end retail store in a wealthy shopping district is now a crime scene with an abundance of evidence and no apparent motive. As authorities wade through the details, they uncover the web of sin that grew over time and, ultimately, culminated in assault and murder.</p> <p>The post <a href="https://sheologians.com/leggings-and-liars/">Leggings and Liars</a> appeared first on <a href="https://sheologians.com">Sheologians</a>.</p>

<p>What if you want something good, and you're not getting it? Is that the Lord trying to stamp that desire out of you for your good? If you're not married but you want to be, are you just busy baking a casserole of sin in your heart? This week we talk faithful desires and when to give up the ghost.

<p>This week we discuss whether or not humans should be cremated, buried, or used as compost. You'd be surprised at the differing opinions you'd find in Christendom, but has it always been this way?

<p>This week we talk about the pernicious "third way". The third way is the soothing middle ground that many so-called evangelicals often want to offer as an alternative. But what is it really? It's a trapdoor to deconstruction.

<p>Some of the people sitting in the pews on Sundays have pasts that would make nice church ladies blink very fast. We sit amongst former murderers, thieves, drunkards, and homosexuals. We know this because Paul tells us that such were some of us. Today, it is not considered "nice" to tell someone that "once a drunkard, NOT always a drunkard" but the mercy of the wicked is cruel. Let's talk the protected sin: addiction.</p> <p>The post <a href="https://sheologians.com/addiction-the-protected-sin/">Addiction, the Protected Sin</a> appeared first on <a href="https://sheologians.com">Sheologians</a>.</p>

<p>You've probably heard that whatever "two consenting adults" want to do is their own business. In a worldview where there is no sky above us and everyone is busy imagining there is no heaven, whatever momentary desires surface become the standard for right and wrong. But the Bible gives us a better standard for what is right and wrong, and that is covenant.

<p>The numbers don't lie: women vastly outnumber men when it comes to self-reported anxiety and depression medication use.

<p>Productivity! Getting things done! Making it happen! So many of us feel fussy around knowing what to do, when to do it, or how to get it all done.

<p>"Your feelings are valid" might be one of the most toxic, underhanded messages we send to each other today. There is an appropriate time to be sad, there is an appropriate time to struggle, but if you are one of the women who is always on the struggle-bus, it's likely because you continue purchasing a one-way ticket. </p> <p>The post <a href="https://sheologians.com/i-want-to-be-sad/">I want to be sad.</a> appeared first on <a href="https://sheologians.com">Sheologians</a>.</p>

<p>You know what the social gospel is even if you’ve never heard of it because so much of American Christianity has confused loving God with just being a really "nice" person. In this episode we talk about Christ as Lion and Lamb and how that applies to our personal lives.
