Just Thinking Podcast

  The statistics tell the story — pornography is a destroyer. It destroys marriages, families, careers, and reputations. In other words, pornography destroys lives. Christians are not immune to this scourge. And yet pornography remains one of the least-addressed issues in the church today. In one of the most crucial episodes ever produced by the Just Thinking podcast, Darrell and Virgil (“Omaha”) look to Scripture for answers to why pornography is such a problem for so many — including within the church — and how the gospel of Christ can lead to freedom from its unmerciful enslavement. “Because of technical difficulties related to increased Internet usage as a result of COVID-19 stay-at-home orders, you may notice intermittent instances of audio interference. We sincerely apologize.” Resources Related episodes * EP # 060 | Sexual Sin in the Church Related blog articles * N/A Related external media * “Self-Defense Against Sexual Sin” (John MacArthur, Grace to You) * “Guarding Sexual Purity” (John MacArthur, Grace to You) * “Pornography: The New Narcotic” (Morgan Bennett, The Public Discourse) * “Women and Pornography” (Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC)) * “Pornography and Dating” (Sean Perron and Spencer Harmon, Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC)) * “Find a Certified Biblical Counselor” (Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC)) * ”Seven Things to Do After You Look at Porn” (Paul Maxwell, Desiring God) * “The Pornographic Seduction” (Albert Mohler, Ligonier Ministries) * “The Progression of Pornography Addiction” (Gene McConnell, Focus on the Family) * “Finally Free: Fighting for Purity with the Power of Grace” (Dr. Heath Lambert) * “Sexual Detox: A Guide for Guys Who Are Sick of Porn” (Tim Challes) Support To support the podcast, please click here or copy/paste the following link into your browser - https://justthinking.me/support/ Disclaimer © Darrell B.

  The coronavirus continues to affect the lives of countless people around the world. But notwithstanding the casualties the COVID-19 pandemic has left in its wake, God is using that adversity to expose some things about the hearts of His people that some may not want to acknowledge or admit.

  With the U.S. presidential elections only months away, many Christians, particularly young believers, are supporting candidates who endorse a socialist view of government. More specifically, the idea that it is the role of government to promote social equality. But is such a view of government biblical? In this extended episode of the Just Thinking podcast, Darrell Harrison and Virgil “Omaha” Walker take an in-depth look into the Scriptures–and history–to answer that question.   Resources Related episodes * EP # 039 | Christian Socialism * EP # 062 | A Biblical Theology of Socialism * EP # 082 | A Socialist Savior Related blog articles * N/A Related external media * “Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen” (Alpha History) * “The Souls of Poor Folk” (Poor People’s Campaign) Support To support the podcast, please click here or copy/paste the following link into your browser - https://justthinking.me/support/ Disclaimer © Darrell B.

  What is “racial reconciliation”? Is it biblical? Many evangelicals seem to think it is.

  Are you a superstitious Christian? Be honest. Do you know someone who is? In fact, what is a “superstitious Christian” anyway? In this final episode of the Just Thinking podcast for 2019, Darrell and “Omaha” (Virgil) discuss a practice that many people who profess to be Christian engage in every day–superstitions–and why such beliefs are antithetical to what it truly means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

  As the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays approach, the grace of God will be the focus of many pulpits and households around the world. But do we really understand what the grace of God is and means and why it is important that we, as Christians, thank God for His grace? Listen as Darrell and “Omaha” (Virgil) discuss what the Bible teaches doctrinally about the grace of God and why the church needs to recommit itself to take that doctrine more seriously than it does currently.  Resources Related episodes * N/A Related blog articles * N/A Related external media * N/A Support To support the podcast, please click here or copy/paste the following link into your browser - https://justthinking.me/support/ Disclaimer © Darrell B.

  As Christians, to what degree should one’s theology shape or influence his or her view of politics? In this episode of the Just Thinking podcast, Darrell and “Omaha” (Virgil) discuss that question in light of a comment made recently on social media by Bishop Paul S. Morton. Morton, a black man, urged black Christians who are considering supporting Democrat candidate Pete Buttigieg a biological male who is “married” to a biological male, for president in 2020, to stand on the biblical definition of marriage, and why Morton paid a price for making such a comment.

  An almost unfathomable situation is currently unfolding in Texas where Dr. Anne Georgulas, the mother of 7-year old James Younger, a biological male, is engaged in a legal battle with the boy’s father, Jeffrey Younger, over whether Georgulas has the right to subject James to “transition” James to a girl against the wishes of his father. The potential ramifications of this case, regardless of the outcome, are not only legal or sociological but theological. Listen as Darrell and Virgil (Omaha) discuss this situation through the lens of the objective truth of the Word of God.
