ngExtrasFoundational Doctrines | Part 2Evangelical Christianity is built on six foundational beliefs that unite believers across denominations. These include the authority of the Bible as God's Word, salvation through faith in Jesus Christ alone, the Trinity (God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), the Great Commission to make disciples, the Second Coming of Christ, and the reality of sin and redemption. While interpretations may vary on specific details, these core beliefs form the essential framework of evangelical faith, guiding believers in their understanding of God, salvation, and their mission in the world.2025-06-1951 minngExtrasFoundational Doctrines | Part 1The foundational doctrines of evangelical Christianity include the authority of Scripture as God's inerrant word, salvation through faith in Jesus Christ alone, and the Trinity—one God in three persons. For our salvation to be valid, Jesus had to be both fully God and fully human, yet without sin. These core beliefs aren't just theological concepts but affect how we worship, live, and engage with others. Without a solid understanding of these fundamentals, believers can easily be led astray by false teachings that contradict authentic Christianity.2025-06-121h 05ngExtrasThomas and Jessica Talk Fear | Part 3Fear is essentially submitting to something and giving it authority over your life. The Bible distinguishes between two types of fear: respectful submission to God's authority (positive) and terror or dread (negative). Our tendency toward fear began in Eden when Adam and Eve gained knowledge they weren't prepared to handle. Romans 8:15 reveals that fear is a form of slavery, but through adoption as God's children, we can experience freedom from fear. Overcoming fear requires daily choices like focusing on God's provision, remembering our eternal perspective, taking action rather than dwelling in fear, and persistently praying even when it feels...2025-06-0557 minngExtrasThomas and Jessica talk Fear | Part 2Fear first entered the world after Adam and Eve's disobedience, stemming from separation from God and knowledge they weren't prepared to handle. Throughout Scripture, fear often drives poor decision-making, blame-shifting, and self-preservation at all costs. The Bible presents a fundamental choice between fearing people, which traps us, or trusting God, which brings security. God doesn't condemn us for experiencing fear but cares about how we respond to it. The good news is that God's covenant promises don't depend on our perfection but on His faithfulness, allowing us to face our fears with faith.2025-05-2959 minngExtrasThomas and Jessica talk Fear | Part 1Fear is a complex emotion that can be both protective and harmful. While healthy fear keeps us safe, chronic anxiety plagues our modern world due to constant pressures and negative media. The Bible distinguishes between reverent fear of God, which leads to wisdom, and terrorizing fear, which we're told to avoid. Like sheep with a shepherd, we find peace by staying close to God, who doesn't always remove our fears but promises to be with us through them. By identifying our fears, examining their sources, and bringing them to God, we can develop a healthier relationship with fear.2025-05-2250 minngExtrasThomas and Jessica talk The Belt of TruthThis wraps up our series on the Armor of God.2025-05-141h 05ngExtrasThomas and Jessica talk Breastplate of RighteousnessPart 5 of 6 of the Armor of God2025-04-3057 minngExtrasThomas and Jessica Talk The Shoes of PeaceEpisode 4 of 6 in the Armor of God. 2025-04-2341 minngExtrasThomas and Jessica talk about the Shield of FaithThomas and Jessica talk about the Shield of Faith.2025-04-161h 07ngExtrasThomas and Jessica talk about The Helmet of SalvationPart 2 of the Armor of God. 2025-04-1042 minngExtrasThomas and Jessica talk about The Sword of the SpiritThomas and Jessica discuss the Sword of the Spirit.
