In this episode, I&#39;m talking to new Christians and those who are supporting these new Christians. There are some very predictable patterns that most new Christians experience shortly after being born again. If you are aware of them, you can avoid them, and you can help others avoid them. These are crucial to recognize early on in a Christian&#39;s new walk with Christ.

In the past, I&#39;ve made new year resolutions most years, but this year I realized a big mistake I was making in formulating my goals. It&#39;s the same mistake I suppose many people make just like me. In this episode I tell you what that mistake is and then I give three questions to ask each year to help you avoid making this mistake from year to year.

From April to September 2025, I taught through every verse of Ecclesiastes alongside three other teachers at the Chapel Grove Church of Christ. This episode gives a summary of the book in brief, and some key issues of interpretation you will need to understand in making sense of the book.

In this long, unbroken episode, I have guest Elton Prince come on to talk all things demons and the devil. Because the subject is so vast and we had limited time, we talk about as much as we can fit in. Enjoy!

Did you know that the rapture is supposed to be today?! That&#39;s what some people are predicting. But there are going to be a lot of people who are disappointed when it doesn&#39;t happen. You need to listen to what the Bible has promised us through the Lord Jesus Himself on this subject. Don&#39;t lose faith, but don&#39;t put your trust in the words of men either.

This is a long episode, but very informative. Should we fear God as mature Christians or is this something we are supposed to grow out of in time? That&#39;s at the heart of this in depth look at the topic - the fear of the Lord. Noah Wall is the main guest on this episode as he makes his second appearance on the podcast.

In this episode, I react to a Facebook SHORT that I saw the other day about the qualifications and disqualifications of a worship leader. We discuss worship leaders and worship teams, as these two things go hand-in-hand in modern Christian worship. What does the Bible have to say about these things? That&#39;s the most important question.Main Dish- 3:14

Main Dish - 4:50This episode is for those of you who are in the search for a new church. What should you be looking for? There are some non-negotiables on my list, and I am drawing this list from some pretty plain principles expressed very clearly in the Bible. You will see that I didn&#39;t just make these up and pull them out of my back pocket. Really think about these, and then use them as a filter when you visit one church to the next. I also encourage you to visit where I preach at the Chapel Grove Church of Christ in Summertown, TN (30 N. Old Military Rd., Summertown, TN 38483). I believe you will find all of the non-negotiables from this episode fulfilled in this wonderful body of believers. Check us out at chapelgrovechurch.com before you visit!

In this episode I talk about six traits of biblical poetry that you should know in order to understand books like Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and much more. I also recommend consulting books like &#34;Words of Delight&#34; by Leland Ryken and &#34;For the Love of God&#39;s Word&#34; by Andreas Kostenberger and Richard Patterson.

There are a lot of weird abbreviations and letters and numbers in the footnotes of your Bible. Maybe you have noticed them before, but they are too overwhelming and confusing. It doesn&#39;t take a lot to utilize these and make sense of them. And once you do understand them, they can be quite helpful to your Bible study. This podcast episode is based on an article from Five Minute Bible Study.

2 Corinthians is is a top 3 neglected book in the New Testament. Have you ever read it? And if so, do you feel like you have a good handle on the book and what it&#39;s about? Most Christians would probably say &#34;No.&#34; Aaron shares a very important key to reading the book with clarity and understanding, making sense of some of the otherwise haphazard subjects that come up in the course of the letter.

In 2018 I almost drowned. I came seconds from dying, but I had two rescuers who acted quickly and saved me in the nick of time. Did God act in a supernatural way to provide my salvation that day? What can we learn from the Bible to answer this question? That&#39;s the aim of this brief podcast episode.

This is the THIRD and final part of this conversation with Noah Wall about transgenderism. Here we discuss the 6th and 7th objections that are commonly brought up in defense of transgenderism. Make yourself equipped and ready to understand and defend the truth by finishing this series. We hope that the ending also inspires you the spirit of love that this message is packaged with. Noah and Aaron affirm that they have a sincere love for the truth and trans people, but that doesn&#39;t mean rewriting the truth or telling people lies because it might make them feel better momentarily.
