Why Christians Must Study Their Bible and Not Just Read It
The enemy is taking advantage of this generation's biblical ignorance and illiteracy. We’re so preoccupied with the American dream (career, hobbies, vacations, family) that we’ve neglected the Christian call. We’re not only biblically illiterate, but we’re also vandalists; We don’t just ignore the Word of God, we try to alter it to fit our emotional desires. This is why in today's episode, Dale and Veronica discuss why Christians must study their Bible and not just read it.

Why Tithing is Biblical but It's Not Christian
Over the years, I've heard these words echoed throughout the pulpit, "The Lord tells us to bring our tithes to the storehouse!" But what is a tithe? The dictionary defines the word as “a tenth part of something paid as a voluntary contribution for the support of a religious establishment.” But does this idea of giving 10% of your income to the church exist in the Bible? Do we ever see New Testament Christians tithing? The answer to both of these questions is: No. In this week's episode, Dale expands on his previously written article "Why Tithing is Biblical, but It's Not Christian."

Why You Can’t Be Pro-Choice and Christian
While most Christians are decidedly pro-life, there are still many who claim the name of Christ yet actually identify as pro-choice. There’s an additional group of people in the church who simply sit in the middle—they say things like, “I would never wish a mother to abort her baby but I’m not going to make it illegal for her to do so.” In today's episode, Dale and Veronica discuss why you can’t be Christian and Pro-Choice but also why you can’t simply be anti-abortion and why we must, as Christians, be pro-life.

Is it Important to go to Church Every Sunday?
As more Christians begin to see the church as a place to go and consume rather than a place to join and contribute, the question of purposeful and committed attendance arises. But how should we view “going to church?” What does the Bible say about this topic? In this episode, Dale and Veronica reveal the broken state of the audience-centric church and provide critical scripture references to rebuild a healthy view of God’s gathering.

Do All Denominations Lead People to Heaven?
In this episode, Dale and Veronica unpack two questions: The first is on denominations and the second is on practical steps for furthering your spiritual maturity. In terms of denominations, many people are curious to why there are so many sects in the Christian church—Baptist, Lutheran, Episcopalian, Methodist, etc. Many wonder if denominations are sacred or sinful? Do all denominations lead people to heaven? Together, Dale and Veronica look at Scripture to provide answers to these important questions.

Is Sex Before Marriage Sinful or Acceptable?
As culture continues to influence the church more than the church influences the culture, more and more Christians are finding themselves adopting the world’s view of sex. Now, most Christians know that premarital sex is sinful, but why? What does the Bible actually say regarding sex before marriage? In this episode, Dale and Veronica look at a variety of Scriptures and put together a basic framework for how the Bible views sex inside and outside of marriage.

How to Stay Consistent with Bible and Prayer Time
In this episode, we answer two common questions. First, we address the difficulty of maintaining a consistent Bible reading and prayer time. In our over-stimulated lives, this discipline seems to be more and more challenging to Christians of this generation. Next, we tackle the dilemma of Christian singleness. Many Christians desire to be married but are frustrated with the lack of mature Christian options. Together, Dale and Veronica offer their perspective and offer a few tips on walking out singleness well.

The 7 Criteria of a Biblical Church
Finding the right church can be challenging. This discussion explores seven criteria for identifying fruitful biblical communities. Expository teaching is emphasized for deeper scripture understanding. The role of qualified elders is critical, with a focus on discipleship over mere evangelism. Spiritual fruitfulness is distinguished from mere activity, stressing accountability and stewardship. Furthermore, family integration in ministry is highlighted as vital for holistic spiritual growth. Ultimately, it offers insights into what truly defines a biblical church.
