Is Christianity White?
April 05, 2021 15:13 - 1 hour - 107 MBYou've likely heard that "Christianity is the white man's religion." You've probably also heard that "whiteness" has co-opted true Christian principles in America today. Dr. James White takes us through some church history to discuss the good, the bad, and the downright ugly. How do we look back and still move forward?

Loaded Down by Fake Guilt

Submit or Die
March 22, 2021 16:23 - 49 minutes - 68.6 MBWe get a lot of practical life application questions about submission. How do I submit? What does it look like?

Called According to My Purpose
March 08, 2021 16:39 - 53 minutes - 73.7 MBHave you ever felt deeply convicted that whatever it was you were doing was NOT something you were meant to be doing?

Beautiful Emotions
March 01, 2021 15:55 - 45 minutes - 62.6 MBIt is not unchristian to be emotional. God demands not just our minds, but our hearts as well. Our devotion, our loyalty, our joy.

Forgiveness (When & Who & Why)
February 22, 2021 17:25 - 57 minutes - 79.1 MBMost of us have been taught the therapeutic model of forgiveness—mainly that forgiveness is something you do mainly for YOURSELF. Funny story, you can't find that in the Bible. The post Forgiveness (When & Who & Why) appeared first on Sheologians.

Marriage Will Save You
February 08, 2021 15:25 - 1 hour - 94.3 MBIt's not another episode of the faux "idolatry of marriage" garbage that the elites want you to toe-the-line with.

Toxic Positivity
January 11, 2021 20:13 - 46 minutes - 63.7 MBBe content! Be joyful! Think positive thoughts! Look to Christ!

The Global Church with Dr. James White
November 23, 2020 16:34 - 59 minutes - 81.1 MBOne of the best things about being a Christian is having brothers and sisters all over the globe.

Can’t Have Your Cake & Dishwasher, Too
November 16, 2020 16:03 - 41 minutes - 57 MBWhat the world doesn't want you to be aware of is the fact that they are at war with God.
