When Is It Right to Judge

Dying to Live Podcast ·

2025/08/18

The word “judge” is often misunderstood and misused—both inside and outside the church. Our liberal world insists, “Do not judge,” as though tolerance were the highest virtue. Yet the Bible speaks with great clarity: we are indeed called to discern between truth and error, holiness and sin. The question is not whether we judge, but whether our judgments are righteous, humble, and according to God’s Word. In this episode, we turn to the Bible to ask: Are we ever to judge the unbelieving world, or is

Navigating Medicinal Cannabis From a Biblical...

2025/07/28

Today we’re tackling a question more and more Christians are asking: Is there a biblical perspective on using medicinal cannabis or CBD oil? As these options become more widely used for pain, anxiety, or chronic illness, many believers are left wondering—Is this wise? Is it biblical? Is it beneficial? While the Bible doesn’t mention cannabis or CBD by name, it does give us principles, as with alcohol use, for discernment, self-control, sober mindedness and honoring God with our bodies. And of

Godly Emotions - Understanding and Expressing Them Well

Dying to Live Podcast ·

2025/07/21

In today's episode we’re tackling something real, raw, and relatable: emotions. We’ve all felt them — joy, anger, sadness, anxiety — but have you ever stopped to ask what are emotions actually for? In this episode, we’ll unpack the idea that emotions are like warning lights on a dashboard. They’re indicators — not problems in themselves. Emotions are neutral. They aren’t sinful. In fact, they’re a gift from God to alert us to what’s going on inside. But here’s the thing: how we respond to those

Why does a good and loving God allow suffering? Is it part of the believer’s walk with Him—or a sign that something is wrong?

2025/06/30

Today, we’re diving into a deep yet often misunderstood topic—the experience of sensing God’s presence in our lives and corporate worship. For some, it's deeply physical or even overwhelming. For others, it’s quiet, still, yet undeniably real. But in a world where emotions can sometimes cloud discernment, how do we recognize what’s truly from God?

Assurance of salvation is one of the most vital truths every believer must grasp. God hasn’t called us merely to know about Him, but to walk confidently as His sons and daughters.

How To Be Naturally Supernatural

2025/06/02

In a world driven by logic, science, and proof, the idea of the supernatural can seem outdated or even irrelevant.

So what does it mean to live naturally supernatural in today’s skeptical age? How do we walk in the power of the Holy Spirit while remaining grounded, authentic, and approachable?
