  • Do you need to go to church?

    Do you need to go to church?
    2026/06/30
    Hebrews 10:25 instructs us not to “neglect” meeting together. This does not mean we must meet with other believers for a formal church service on a Sunday morning, but we are designed to live in community with trusted Christian friends. We gather for the purpose of receiving encouragement in the truth of the Gospel.

  • Is gambling a sin?

    Is gambling a sin?
    2026/06/23
    Scripture does not say gambling is sinful. All things are permissible, however, not all things are beneficial (1 Corinthians 10:23). This means we need to determine whether gambling, or any activity, is mastering us or if we are simply doing it for enjoyment (like other activities that cost money). If we have any history of gambling addiction, godly wisdom and discernment would have us steer clear of it. (Note: There is a reason the casinos are so large and nice: They are typically going to win more often than you do!).

  • Is it okay for Christians to get a tattoo?

    Is it okay for Christians to get a tattoo?
    2026/06/16
    Some have interpreted Leviticus 19:28 to mean that Christians cannot get tattoos. This was just one of many prohibitions in the Law (including the avoidance of pork, shellfish, and clothing spun of more than one linen). However, Christians are dead to the Law (Romans 7:4), not under the Law (Romans 6:14), and Christ is the end of the Law for all those who believe (Romans 10:4). Therefore, believers are free to have tattoos.

  • Does God cause pain and suffering?

    Does God cause pain and suffering?
    2026/06/09
    While many see pain as an instrument given to us by God for spiritual maturation, God is not the cause of this fallen world. God uses pain for our good, but He does not send it (Romans 8:28).

    Can Christians drink alcohol?
    2026/06/02
    The Biblical perspective on alcohol is found in Ephesians 5:18: “Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.” Believers are free to drink alcohol, always being wise and avoiding drunkenness.

  • How do you stop comparing yourself to other people?

    How do you stop comparing yourself to other people?
    2026/05/26
    We compare ourselves when we forget our righteousness and our new identity in Christ. Scripture says we are the righteousness of God (2 Corinthians 5:21). We cannot improve upon this!

  • How can you know that God loves you?

    How can you know that God loves you?
    2026/05/19
    God’s love for us is expressed perfectly in the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ (Romans 5:8). We may not always feel this love, but over time we can know God’s love more deeply and comprehensively as we set our minds on all that Jesus has done for us (Ephesians 3:19).

  • How do you deal with worry and anxiety as a Christian?

    How do you deal with worry and anxiety as a Christian?
    2026/05/12
    Our worries are often the result of “what ifs” that penetrate our minds. We can only overcome worry when we realize we’re not in control of these “what ifs” or any other potential scenarios in our lives. All we can do is trust Christ as our life and allow Him to carry us through.
