Wretched Radio with Todd Friel

DIVIDED WE FALL: DEPORTATION, DISAGREEMENTS, AND BIBLICAL WISDOM

Nov 19, 2024
55:00

Segment 1:

• Biblical Perspective: The Bible doesn’t address 21st-century deportation directly—apply OT principles thoughtfully.

• Unity Over Division: Don’t let this non-essential issue divide us. Respond gracefully to disagreement.

• What’s in It for You: Gain clarity on balancing biblical truth with modern complexities.

Segment 2:

• Degrees of Issues: The Bible gives varying levels of importance—think critically before fighting over differences.

• Wisdom First: Address disagreements with grace, understanding what truly matters.

• Relevance: Equip yourself with discernment to navigate modern challenges like AI and doctrinal debates.

Segment 3:

• Staggering Stats: 85% of pastors quit within 5 years—betrayal, personal attacks, and burnout are top reasons.

• Church Dynamics: Are seminaries equipping pastors for real-world challenges and diverse communities?

• Takeaway: Cherish, support, and encourage your pastor—don’t contribute to their burdens.

Segment 4:

• Serious Sin: Proverbs 6 warns against sowing discord—church splits often stem from unchecked strife.

• Types of Discord: Doom-and-gloom members, edge-of-leaving members, and amateur theologians sow division.

• Actionable Insight: Be a peacemaker. Affirm your pastor and build unity in the church community.
