Today on the podcast, the pastors talk about how the Lord has shown them favor through their wives. Don't miss it!

We're on a hiatus until September. Take the time to go back and listen again to your favorite episodes.

A little lighter fare for our 250th episode:

When did you graduate high school? What was popular that year? In style? Music? Sports? How were your grades? What did you drive? What were the big dreams you had for your life? If you could give any advice to that version of yourself on the week before their graduation, what would it be? 

"I'm a _______ Christian." 

Whatever you put in that blank can prove to be more powerful than your identity in Christ. What is the danger and how do we avoid identifying with our struggles more than we identify with our Savior?

Why the sabbath? We know God created in six days and rested on the seventh and the sabbath command references the creation in giving the commandment. Is the sabbath command still relevant today? 

What is rest? What is its purpose? Why is rest a good thing? Can it be abused? 

What about recreation? Is it okay to pursue recreation? How much? How do we balance it with work? Is it sinful to have recreational hobbies, pastimes, etc. that are not explicitly spiritual in nature? 

What sort of guidelines might we develop to guide our rest and recreational pursuits? 
 
Listen in as the pastors discuss a theology of rest and recreation.

How is this study in Galatians affecting us personally and how do see it affecting our church in positive ways. Are there particular passages that stand out?

Since all Scripture is breathed out by God and is profitable, how is the Old Testament in general “profitable” for us, since we are no longer under the law, but under grace and in the new covenant. How does God deal with us concerning blessings for obedience and punishment for disobedience? What does it mean and how are we to understand that “we teach the whole counsel of God?

This episode started as an email to a young man in our youth ministry. He had questions about worship and specifically our local expression of worship at KBC. My email response to him reflects our philosophy of music/worship at our church. In the episode, we also take up a few questions that came in via our Facebook group.
Here's the email:

Listen in as the pastors continue this series on spiritual warfare. In it, we answer:

1. How do our three enemies work together?
2. How do we avail ourselves of the means of grace?
3. What practical steps do we need to take to stand firm against the schemes of the devil?

We hope it is helpful to you.

What is spiritual warfare? How do we identify it? How do we keep from thinking everything is spiritual warfare and “looking for Satan under every rock or behind every door?” How do we not underestimate its reality? How do we battle it?
