This time, we focus on building a theological solid and mortal foundation on sex and marriage. Also, we use the popular TV Show, 'Friends' as an example of how the culture has wrongly presented sex as something less than meaningless.

S2 Ep 15S02E15: Help My Unbelief - The Dangers of Fearing Man Over Fearing God

Jack, Blake, and Grayson discuss the common Christian struggle of fearing man over fearing God. When we fear man over God, we act in unbelief. This can occur in the fear of physical harm, career concerns, loss of possessions, etc. As Christians, we must aim to learn that the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom and the lens through which we see the world and its challenges.

S2 Ep 13S02E13: What Does Biblical Femininity Look Like?

In this episode, Blake, Jack, and Grayson look to God's Word for the portrait of biblical womanhood. We aim to define what a biblical woman is, what she does, what she doesn't do, and ultimately who her hope and faith are in (spoiler alert: it's Jesus). It may seem odd to some that 3 middle-aged men are tackling this subject, however, we know that God's Word is clear and stands on its own authority.

Nancy Pearcey is the author of The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes, as well as Love Thy Body, The Soul of Science, Saving Leonardo, Finding Truth, and Total Truth.

As we approach the midpoint of season 2, this time we tackle the common struggle of contentment. Jack, Grayson, and Blake offer some insight into the struggle, the seriousness of the sin, and how one can learn to be content in the Lord's provision.
