Mass shootings and Gun rights: Should we even allow guns? Would Jesus carry a pistol if he were in human form on earth today? Is it moral for Christians to carry one?
On this episode, we pose the question, "Should Christians carry a firearm?" We spend time looking at what Scripture says regarding self-defense as well as the role of government in defense. Firearms are one of many things believers are divided on. Our hope is that as you listen, you grow in a knowledge of God and his Word as well as helping you to see this topic from a biblical framework.
