The Bible says plenty about husbands and wives, but should single women interact the same way with their boyfriends?

In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question around the role of men and women in a romantic relationship that hasn't been brought together in matrimony. Should men expect submission from a woman they are dating? Should women be expected to submit to a man who hasn't made a covenant commitment to them? What's the line between serving and submission?

Some denominations have relied on catechisms heavily throughout their history, but what exactly are they? Are they something modern churches should be using, or something that is better to leave in the past?

In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question around the nature of catechisms. We look through some of the history of catechisms, specifically some of the Baptist ones, and look at when things shifted away from them and whether that was a good or bad thing. We then wrap up by talking about what modern catechisms ought to look like to be most helpful for believers today!

This is a rewind episode. Derek was out sick this week, so we have a throwback episode for you back from April 11, 2022.

Is committing suicide unforgivable? What happens to Christians who commit suicide? If a loved one has taken their own life, do we have any hope that they will be in heaven?

On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a very heavy topic that has had an impact on many people: suicide. We know that all sins are forgivable, but what about one where there is no opportunity to ask forgiveness after the fact? We walk through what the Scripture has to say about the value of life and different cases of suicide in Scripture. Finally, we look at what exactly condemns us to Hell and how we are saved from that and where suicide falls into the mix. We hope that you will be encouraged after listening and would grow your biblical knowledge as well as gain a better understanding of God.
