In this special Easter episode reboot, host, Rebecca Berschwinger, unpacks what truly made Jesus’ sacrifice so excruciating, with His suffering going far beyond physical pain by digging into the scriptures to reveal why the cry, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” represents the ultimate pain: the weight of sin and God’s wrath. Through biblical insights, she challenges us to reflect on the seriousness of sin, the gravity of what Jesus endured for our salvation, and the daily gratitude that should fill our lives because of it.https://onelittlecandlepodcast.comhttps://youtu.be/AjR_A2pGPrY?si=PajXAfAEcOPn41CI

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the pivotal event that facilitates mankind's forgiveness of sin, a theme we explore in depth in this episode. As we anticipate the significance of Easter, we delve into the profound implications of the resurrection, which serves as the cornerstone of Christian faith and belief.

Through our discussion, we reflect on the transformative power of this event and its enduring relevance in our lives as believers.

At a recent Easter event, pastor Paula White made headlines for comparing Donald Trump to Jesus drawing parallels between Trump’s legal struggles and Christ’s suffering, even connecting it to the resurrection. That raises a serious question: Have we blurred the line between Christ and culture? In this episode, we break it down biblically: Why comparing any political leader to Jesus is dangerous The uniqueness of Christ’s suffering and resurrection How modern Christianity can drift into idolatry What Scripture actually says about leaders, authority, and worship This isn’t about politics, it’s about protecting the glory of Christ. #trump #politics #faith #idol #false #truthmatters

Faith is not a force you wield to produce outcomes. It is not a lever that pulls heaven into your preferred reality. Biblical faith is trust. It is confidence in God’s character when circumstances contradict what you hoped for. It is endurance in suffering, not escape from it. When power becomes the lens, faith gets redefined into performance and results. But Scripture presents faith as steadfast reliance on God, whether He delivers immediately or sustains you through the fire.In this episode, we carefully examine how redefining faith reshapes the Christian life, distorts expectation, and ultimately shifts trust away from God Himself. If faith becomes about outcomes, what happens when the miracle doesn’t come? What remains is the question this episode presses into: do we trust God, or do we trust results?#BoldApologia #ChristianPodcast #BiblicalTruth #FaithInGod #TrustGod #SoundDoctrine #Apologetics #Discernment #TheologyMatters #ChristianLiving #BethelDoctrineSeries #ExposingError #StayInTheWord #Hebrews11 #FaithNotFeelings

REPLAY:Politics is dirty (right?), so the Bible has nothing to say about it (or does it?). But when we look closely at Scripture, I think we will find that it says more about politics (i.e., the concerns of the city) than we give it credit for.If you have any questions, comments, or other topics you would like me to address, please email me at [email protected] can follow me on Facebook or Twitter, or go to http://www.ericluppold.com/And if you would like to support the show, please become a patron!

They unpack the alarming trend of individuals scapegoating Jewish people as the root of societal issues, which raises eyebrows and concerns about the theological implications of such views.

Andrew's conversational style invites listeners to reflect on the nuanced distinctions between Judaism as a faith and Jewish identity, while also addressing the dangers of conflating the two in discourse that leans toward vilification rather than understanding. The episode serves as a clarion call for Christians to approach the topic with both love and discernment, recognizing the importance of evangelism over enmity.Takeaways:In a world where anti-Semitism persists, understanding the roots and implications of this hatred is critical for Christians today.Andrew Rappaport emphasizes the importance of biblical interpretation and application in addressing sensitive topics surrounding Israel and Jewish identity.The podcast explores the complexities of Jewish identity, discussing the distinction between ethnicity and religion within the context of Christianity.Listeners are encouraged to engage thoughtfully with the topic, recognizing that love and the gospel must drive our interactions with others, including those we may disagree with.Links referenced in this episode:strivingforeternity.orgjohnharrismedia.comThe New Anti-Jewish Theology

What if everything you believe about God is only possible because God chose to reveal Himself? In this episode of *Doctrine Matters*, we tackle one of the most foundational truths of Christianity: the Bible is the very Word of God. Not just inspired ideas. Not helpful guidance. But God speaking. If that’s true… then everything changes. We’ll walk through Scripture itself to answer: - Why we can trust the Bible - What it means that Scripture is “God-breathed” - How the Bible is both fully human and fully divine - Why ignoring Scripture is ultimately rejecting God Himself This isn’t just theology—it’s authority, obedience, and life. #christianity #christian #bible

Scored by Mark Mothersbaugh, the film offers more than its cute surface suggests. In this episode, we examine the movie’s incarnation echo and how its hopping premise approaches questions of knowing and saving. We also confront the thornier issue of anthropomorphism, which only grew more bothersome the longer we considered it. From there, we question the familiar lie that everyone is good deep down, and the related promise that letting go of anger is easier when you believe you are part of something bigger.Takeaways:The Pixar movie Hoppers presents an intriguing narrative that prompts a critical analysis through a biblical lens.A significant theme of the film revolves around the concept of becoming one with to save one, aka, the parable of the birds, an important step toward understanding the incarnation of ChristThe portrayal of anthropomorphism in Hoppers raises important questions about the representation of animal intelligence and social structures.The underlying message suggests that without a biblical worldview, audiences may may walk away from the film indoctrinated by a false worldview.The film's protagonist embodies a journey of personal growth, but there is concern about the influence of Asian philosophy on the underlying theme of her journey.The discussion highlights the necessity of parental guidance in interpreting the film's themes to ensure children understand its moral complexities.

In Episode 21 of Sanctify Christ as Lord, we step into the tension between truth and compassion and see what it really means to live under Christ’s Lordship in mercy. Scripture calls us to exercise right judgment, but it also reminds us that mercy must triumph. The gospel does not produce people who ignore sin, nor does it produce people who condemn without compassion. It produces people who speak truth, confront sin, and still extend grace because they themselves have received it.If Christ is truly Lord, then our posture toward others must reflect His heart. Truth without mercy becomes cruelty, and mercy without truth becomes compromise, but in Christ we see both perfectly united. We are called to be people who restore, not destroy, who pursue holiness without losing compassion, and who remember that we stand before God only because of His mercy.#SanctifyChristAsLord #BoldApologia #ChristianPodcast #MercyTriumphs #BiblicalTruth #GraceAndTruth #ChristIsLord #ChristianLiving #FaithInAction #GospelCentered

In this both challenging and encouraging episode, they share personal reflections and biblical truths along with practical examples. If you’ve ever wondered if you—or someone you love—might be growing complacent in their walk with God, this is an episode that offers both a wake-up call and a pathway back to authentic, passionate faith. www.onelittlecandlepodcast.com www.christianpodcastcommunity.org

If you’ve ever heard someone say, “If Christians say homosexuality is sinful according to the Bible, then why don’t they also avoid pork, shellfish, and mixed fabrics?” this episode is for you. That argument sounds sharp, but it actually falls apart when Scripture is read in context. In this episode, we break down the structure of the Mosaic Law, explain the purpose behind those commands, and clearly address biblical sexual ethics regarding homosexuality. This isn’t about cherry-picking verses. It’s about understanding covenant, category, and how the law is fulfilled in Christ.We walk through Leviticus, Acts 15, the teachings of Jesus, and the foundation of creation itself to show why ceremonial laws were fulfilled while moral truths remain. The Bible treats dietary laws and sexual ethics differently, and once you see that, the objection loses its force. If you want a clear, confident, and biblically grounded response to one of the most common internet arguments, this episode will equip you to speak with both truth and clarity.#ChristianApologetics #BiblicalSexualEthics #Homosexuality #Apologetics #FaithAndReason #ChristianPodcast #TheologyMatters #BibleStudy #DefendingTheFaith #TruthMatters #GospelCentered #ChristianWorldview #KnowYourBible #Scripture #ChristianLiving #BoldApologia #SanctifyChrist #JesusIsLord #FaithOverFeelings #BiblicalTruth

Confrontation. For many of us, that word alone stirs anxiety, avoidance, or memories of conversations that did not go well. But what if confrontation is not opposed to love? What if it is actually an essential expression of Christlike love?In this episode of the Shepherd Press Podcast, Shannon chats with Bill Newton, author of Confrontation: The Missing Element in Christlike Love. Drawing from decades of leadership in the military, business, and pastoral ministry, Bill shares how loving well sometimes requires speaking hard truths — and how avoiding confrontation can cause long-term relational and spiritual damage.With humility and honesty, Bill reflects on both personal failures and growth, reminding us that confrontation, when done biblically reflects Christlike love.This episode unpacks:How Christians often misunderstand love as avoiding hard conversationsWhat Scripture reveals about God as the ultimate confronterWhy fear, self-protection, and comfort keep us from confrontingThe importance of examining our motives before engaging in confrontationHow humility and repentance restore relationshipsWhy church discipline reflects Christlike love — not harsh judgmentHow to respond faithfully when confrontation is rejectedWisdom for receiving confrontation with humility instead of defensivenessRecommended Resources:Confrontation: The Missing Element in Christlike Love by Bill Newton
