“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Romans 8:1In this episode, Brody walks through Mark 9 and discusses the reality of sin and hell. For those of us who are in Christ, we don’t have to fear hell. But, the reality of hell should motivate us to share the Gospel with unbelievers. Brody walks through 3 key things Jesus teaches us about hell in the Bible. Hell is a place of punishment and destruction, and it separates people from God.Because of Christ and what he’s done for us on the cross, we are free from the punishment our sin has earned. Let’s fix our eyes on Christ and share this good news with those around us. Resources:Mark 9Romans 8:1Heaven by Randy Alcorn 2 Thessalonians 1:91 John 3:2Send us a textPlease leave a review on Apple or Spotify to help improve No Sanity Required and help others grow in their faith.

How do we address this cultural issue of students not wanting to step into adulthood?A recent survey from Intelligent.com, where they surveyed employers on interviewing young adults today, tells us that 53% of young adults struggle with eye contact, 47% dress inappropriately for the interview, 27% use inappropriate language while in the interview, and 19% brought a parent with them to their interview. We are seeing a lack of maturity from young adults in today's culture. In this episode, Brody walks through 7 issues we need to address with the mentality some young adults may have. Our goal as parents, youth pastors, and mentors is to see the students under us step into adulthood with confidence, and the qualities we see in 1 Corinthians 13:11.Let’s encourage and equip the young adults we know by pointing them to the Lord and showing them what Christ calls them to be.1 Corinthians 13:11Intelligent.comSend us a textPlease leave a review on Apple or Spotify to help improve No Sanity Required and help others grow in their faith.
