  • Ep. 106 Is the Soul Immortal? A Critical Look at Annihilationism
    2025/12/22

    Text Us!

    On this episode, we are joined by one of our newest professors at Free Gospel Bible Institute, Chris Jordon, to discuss the Annihilationist perspective on eternity. In this episode we address an article written by Greg Boyd. Particularly, we look at his claim that the soul of man is mortal and only receives immortality when it is granted eternal life from God at salvation. Further, we dissect the hermeneutical approach to terms in Scripture that seem to indicate that "eternal" and "forever" do not necessarily need to be taken in a literal sense.

    Here is the article we address in the episode: https://reknew.org/2008/01/the-case-for-annihilationism/

    Here is the book on Hell by Zondervan that was referenced in the episode: https://a.co/d/2Wxzoeb

  • Ep. 104 Luke 16: Literal or Parable?
    2025/09/29

    Text Us!

    Was Jesus telling a parable—or giving us a glimpse into eternity? In Luke 16, the story of the Rich Man and Lazarus has stirred debate among scholars for quite some time. Some see it as a vivid illustration of hell’s reality, others as a true account of a man crying out from the flames. In this episode, we dig into the context, propose the view that seems to make the most sense to us, and draw out the timeless truths Jesus wanted us to see: the finality of judgment, the urgency of repentance, and the hope found in God’s Word. Join us as we explore what this powerful passage really means for life—and eternity!

  • Ep. 103 Listener Question: The Posture of the Young Preacher
    2025/09/01

    Text Us!

    In this episode, we address a question that was sent into us by a young preacher. He asks, "as a young preacher, it is my desire to be as effective as I can be. How ought I to approach or posture myself toward the congregation, God, and even myself?" We spend some time addressing this question, pointing back to Christ as our ultimate example.

  • Ep. 102 Redemptive Confrontation: The Heart of Matthew 18
    2025/05/26

    Text Us!

    In this episode, we spend some time addressing a question that was sent in to us by a listener. In Matthew 18, Jesus gives us the blueprint for how we should handle wrongdoings committed against us by a brother or sister in Christ. Have we deviated from the model that Jesus left us? Would following this model help us to resolve far more wrongdoings and differences within the church? What is the attitude and spirit that we should approach these conversations with? These are some of the questions that we address on this episode.

  • Ep. 100 In the Body or Out of the Body?
    2025/04/14

    Text Us!

    In this episode, we continue our discussion concerning the afterlife by exploring the possibility of Near Death Experiences or Out of Body Experiences. We look at some of the objections that are given to the possibility of NDE's or OBE's. We also explore some Biblical passages that seem to indicate the possibility of them. However, should Christians focus on trying to experience these? That is yet another question we will explore on this episode. We hope you enjoy!
