Doctrine Matters Podcast

Most of you have heard about what is happening at Asbury University. Claims of a revival have taken social media by storm. People from all over the United States of America have gone to this "revival" and reported back what they have found. There have been many local pastors, and well known false teachers visit Asbury University, folks like Greg Locke and Todd Bentley. There is a lot of controvers...

Our culture is a cesspool of evil. It has long been time for men of God to stand up and war with the culture. We have seen many demonic performances on live television from Beyonce to Sam Smith. This is just an indication of what our world looks like today. Evil. Where are all the men? Unfortunately they are within the four walls of their "churches" swinging swords and speaking in tongues to make...

All of us have committed secret sins whether we knew it or not. Many times we commit sin in secret and think that nobody knows, or that we are hiding our sin. The truth is we are not hiding anything. On this episode I want to look at 4 things about our secret sin and how it affects us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wB03CZ2pjCs&t=483s #sin #secrets #doctrine

This is a sermon I preached several years ago at my Church. A sermon that was controversial to say the least. Not everyone appreciated this sermon, but I preached my convictions. Take a listen as I unpack the doctrine of election for the glory of God alone. #sundaysermon #preaching #election

It's likely you have seen what played out on Monday Night Football in front of a national audience with Damar Hamlin. It's also likely you have seen where the conversation has gone as a result of what happened. On this episode, I want to take the conversation in two different directions. Not about vaccines, or if the hit caused the tragedy, but a Biblical conversation as we talk about what this lo...

It's tough being a parent, but I believe God gives us ways to be good parents for His glory. There are so many kids in our culture today that are actually telling the parents what they are going to do, where they are going to go, and what they are going to watch or not watch on their phones. God has given us, as parents, the authority over our kids lives. Will we use it for his glory, or our own?...

I didn't expect to do a video today, but this topic made me think twice. I want you to know that our enemy wraps himself up as an angel of light. #transgender #trans #tampax https://youtu.be/s8vxwa-gtHY  

Cancelling Church on Christmas Day is the correct thing to do, right? https://youtu.be/U28K_E7omKQ

I know everyone has a thought about Santa Clause and whether or not it is a good idea to tell their kids or not. What about Christian homes? Should Christian parents tell their kids about Santa? Is it lying? Are we too focused on tradition rather than the pages of Scripture? On this episode I tackle a tough subject regarding Christians and Santa Clause. The convictions that I share are my own. I i...

​ @Ligonier Ministries just put out there State of Theology survey. As usual, there are some staggering numbers when it comes to the state of theology in America.

On this episode we look at the question:...

Modesty is a hot button issue these days, but it is something that is not talked about near enough. I have been called many terrible names simply for promoting Biblical modesty. Maybe this is a reason we have so much sexual immorality in our culture. #modesty #christianity #coverup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OAddUMjxtM

Is Christianity in decline? According to one research center the answer is yes, but is it really? What is the leading factor involved in Christianity declining? How did they conduct this research? How do they know those that profess to be Christians are actual Christians? If Christianity declines, does that mean the Kingdom of God is in decline and He is losing the battle? What has led to this dec...

Is there a real life Purge about to happen in America? According to a law that will begin in January of 2023, it seems like the state of Illinois is setting themselves up to have a real life purge situation on their hands. What does this mean for future states? What does this mean for citizens of this state and any others that may adopt this law? What does it mean for Christians? How are we to res...

I ran across a video today of a someone named Joey Maiza who is detransistioning. Joey was born a female and transitioned to male, and is now stopping the transition. There is so much brokenness and frustration in Joey's voice which leads me to a few thoughts about the issue and the things that will be upcoming regarding today's youth and their transitions. If you identify as LGBTQ+ and would like...

What do we do when leaders fall? Should we applaud, say I told you so, or should we show grace and lament? Matt Chandler is the latest of pastors to fall publicly and this is my response to that situation. #MattChandler #VillageChurch #celebritypastors https://youtu.be/NmJR3yiwaFQ

If we are honest with ourselves, at times, it is hard to be a good disciple. A disciple is simply a learner, and we should always be learning. No matter where you are on the theological ladder you can always be learning because you are commanded to make other learners (disciples).

There has been a lot of talk about the government lately. They are either too invasive, or take too much money from the American people. But, how are Christians supposed to interact with the government? Are we to go along with everything they say or do? Are we to submit to the government? On this episode I give 4 ways we as Christians are to interact with the government. #government #christianity...
