Episode 427 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions.
Key questions answered in today’s show:
1. I have been really struggling in my Christian walk. Friends have told me that it’s because I have focused too much on head knowledge and not enough on the heart. I thought I would ask you guys what you thought about head knowledge getting in the way of the heart and what I should be doing to improve my walk with God.
2. Acts 16:31 it says You shall be saved and your house. How does this translate to those in your family who aren’t believers?
3. I’m struggling to make sense of Luke 12:35–40. Is this about the wedding supper of the Lamb?
4. What is a good commentary or resource to use to help understand scripture? I find that when I read my Bible, I get a bit confused but I’m not sure where to go to get true, biblical clarifications.
5. I love the show and listen most days on my morning walk. Something I have heard you guys say in passing a couple of times is that when we are struggling with our sin, we need to fix our eyes on Christ. Can you explain this a little more?

How Do I Stay Faithful to Jesus in the Little Things?
Episode 432 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. If salvation is by faith and our works have nothing to do with our salvation, won’t this make people lazy and indifferent to their spiritual progress? 2. In 2 Peter 3:8–9 it says that God is delaying judgment in the coming of Christ. I never noticed this before. Can you explain it? 3. How could Noah put all the animals of the world on the ark? 4. What advice do you have for being faithful to Jesus in the little things. I’m a stay at home mom and I love my children but a lot of my time it can feel hard being stuck in the house and watching kids and not having much adult conversation. 5. The Bible tells us that God is the same today, always, and forever? How do we say this when God came down and became a man? Doesn’t this contradict? 6. How am I supposed to know God’s will for me when everything in the Bible seems to be unrelated with my life?
