S1 Ep 182How to Let Change Kill You

Some people love change. Most people hate it. Why? Because change brings discomfort, difficulty, and uncertainty. Change is an unchanging part of life, so we all have to develop strategies for responding to it. Unfortunately, most people offer strategies that don't help you thrive in changing circumstances. They offer strategies that let change kill you. Jesus has the key to facing change in your life. Your support makes TMBT possible. Ten Minute Bible Talks is a crowd-funded project.

"We have narrowed salvation to focus only on our souls or only on individuals. And we have missed what God is doing on a cosmic level, what God is doing on a bigger level." When we think about salvation, we probably think about our souls, but it's way bigger than that. God cares about all of his creation, which includes animals and nature. We are called to be stewards of the earth and caretakers of the land. Most of us care about the environment, but we might not realize how important it is.

Patrick and Keith are doing another point/counter-point. Should Christians go to war? In this episode Patrick says the answer is no, based on Jesus’s teachings and actions.
