Can A Good Person Go to Heaven?

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2026/03/25

Send us Fan Mail Morality without Jesus is a primary topic of discussion among those thinking about Christ. Good things that people do make the world a better place. But is doing enough good enough to get you into heaven? We can look at this question by dividing it into Biblical concepts. Who is good? What is good? Is there something you can do on your own merit to purchase your eternal life? Can you buy it? The Bible is clear heaven cannot be earned. It is a gift of grace from God thr...

Send a text There are those who receive persecution, trials and hardships for their beliefs. Some even are subject to pain, physical attacks, imprisonment and death. Perhaps you were subject to a culture of preparation for these inevitable events. Were they destructive to your psyche in your upbringing? Do you associate faith with that trauma? Though the Bible does not sugar coat we will be persecuted for our beliefs, the instruction is to be prepared for when they do happen in your life. Th...

Should We Remember the Holy Days?

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2026/01/19

Send us a text Leviticus 23 is a chapter that illustrates all the Holy Days of the Jews. These days had cultural and religious significance to those people. Jesus fulfilled these festivals by honoring them and fulfilling them with righteous purpose. Jesus’s activity on the Holy Days during the narrative of the New Testament is of note. The miracles and teachings carried out around these festivals brought about great significance to His work. Should we observe the holy festival days tod...

I’m Not Hurting Anyone Else

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2026/01/09

Send a text The moral argument is a core apologetic to both Christians and Atheists. While the world was at war, C.S. Lewis brought to a radio presentation a presentation of Christianity without the use of direct scripture reference. A fascinating story on how an argument can be created using secular means is presented in Mere Christianity. Considering morality, Lewis presents an argument that morality has three parts. Within yourself, yourself toward others, and collectively as a soci...

The Extra Mile - 2025 Question Recap

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2025/12/29

Send us a text It’s been an outstanding year with great guests and excellent perspectives on what it means to go the extra mile for others. Matthew 5:41 describes instruction from Jesus about this principle. If any would force you to go with them a mile, go with them two. Not begrudgingly, but with the mindset that you were placed in that situation to make a change. It takes perspective of heavenly thinking to take that first step. The Bible does not promise we won’t suffer in t...

The Rise of Christian Media

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2025/12/22

Send us a text Audio Note: One of our microphones has a slight echo in this episode. Thanks for bearing with us—despite the technical hiccup, the conversation is strong and we believe it’s worth sharing. Christian and Biblically inspired media is on the rise, offering new ways to share faith and spark spiritual conversations. But is it actually helping people grow, or becoming a substitute for real Bible study and discipleship? In this episode, we explore the strengths and shortcomings of th...

Jesus Believes in Karma?

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2025/12/15

Send us a text There’s a difference between consequence and karma. What does the Bible say about karma, and did Jesus believe in this concept? Looking at Job there is a concept that is explored about judgement, consequence, karma, and punishment in our experience. There is correction that God offers to the friends of Job and their opinion of how God operates. There is little cut and dry understanding to God’s judgement. It is the tendency of man to reduce God to our level. Works based...

Being Thankful

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2025/12/11

Send us a text Do you ever have times where you forget to be thankful for what you have? That mindset that is fleeting is the grumbling that leads to destruction. The New Testament guides the Christian to attribute all blessings to God, and carry that thankful heart throughout your days. Is there something that is hindering your thankfulness? Perspective can be panted with the troubles of this chaotic world. If you are in a season of thankfulness, reach out to those to lift other...

God Will Always Listen to Your Prayers

2025/12/03

Send us a text An encouraging passage is when Saul of Tarsus, the great persecutor of the early church, was praying continually to God. Guilty of doing wrong to Jesus, Saul is not in a good state with his salvation. Ananias is told that God is listening to the continuous prayer of Saul. What does that mean for those who are searching and trying to understand Jesus and God? If you are inspired to speak to God, that channel is always open. This should be encouraging to anyone everywhere,...

Unless You Repent, You Will Perish Like Them

2025/11/24

Send us a text God answers our “what if” questions with a reminder of humility. Who are you to tell the powerful creator what He is to do? The divine response to these questions is to worry about yourself. Are you in a saved state with the creator? Who is the clay to say to the potter why did you make me this way? Why would we work to disprove God’s power and authority? We don’t like the things He’s created? Maybe life is unfair and we want to blame Him rather than those who harm us? What ab...

Send us a text How does this question help us discover the limits of what is real? What have you said is impossible? Is there something in your life that is beyond you, that you are powerless to complete? How can Jesus help you to make that thing that’s impossible in your life come to fruition. To be clear, there are things that Jesus will help you conquer when it comes to sin, temptation, or seeking after the good spiritual things above. The pages of the Bible tell a story about renew...

Why Would a Good God Allow Evil, Pain, and Suffering?

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2025/10/27

Send us a text This question wracks many with doubt. It is one that has been attempted to be answered for millennia. The long answer attempts to dissect this complex question into smaller and more congruent pieces. Is God good? Many life philosophies attempt to prove God isn’t good, or simply isn’t there at all. The Bible has a vast amount of writing on this subject. There is a God, and He is good. Does God allow bad things on this Earth? Yes. He does not snap these things out o...

The Extra Mile Podcast ·

2025/10/22

Send us a text We are pleased to welcome author and researcher Christopher Baidoo-Essien discussing his book Examining the Great Commission. Writing about scripture takes time, thought, perspective, and patience. One of the unique things about the Bible is the text can be understood deeper the longer you live with it. Maturing in faith has its roots based in thinking. The Bible instructs to meditate on it day and night. The more we can think, the more connects that can be drawn to brin...
