Episode 216 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. What does it look like when the Bible says that we should be angry and not sin? And how might this apply to a person who struggles with anger? 2. How does Samson point us to Christ? 3. My son was killed in a car accident and I worry about him and his salvation. We are of the Catholic faith. My Son was baptized and confirmed. But I don’t really know what he believed, and I worry about him. 4. Romans 3 teaches that no one seeks God and that no one is righteous. I want to believe the Bible, but it seems like Paul is being hyperbolic since it seems like unbelievers can still do a lot of good in the world and many people really do seek God. 5. How am I supposed to understand how miracles work in the Bible when they seem so untrue?

Episode 530 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com 1. Adriel: As you know, Nancy, writing a book is a lot of work. What did you see in the church and the lives of believers around you that made you feel that this book needed to be written? 2. I’m getting really burnt out as a parent right now. I already have a full-time job, and now I have to be a homeschool teacher to my 3 kids due to schools not opening. Finding time and space for devotions was hard enough before! Can you give me any advice to navigate this season in life? 3. When things are going well in my life, I feel like it’s clear that God is working in and through me. But sometimes I don’t feel God’s presence at all. My prayer life feels dry and it seems like no one is listening. How do I get back to that place where I feel like I am being used by God? 4. Adriel: I’m curious, Nancy, as you studied the idea of emptiness throughout Scripture, what did you learn about the nature and character of God?

Episode 389 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. If Christians are supposed to follow Christ and do as he did, why is it that so many Christians stop short of the full demands of love? Why don’t more people commit to live humble lives for Christ? We are so materialistic and worldly and we have so much stuff. Shouldn’t we be like the early church that had everything in common and give most of what we have to the poor? I would love to hear your thoughts on this. 2. In Matthew Jesus says to be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. 20 years ago I was only baptized in the name of Jesus. Do I need to get rebaptized? Does this have an effect on my Christian life? 3. In Acts 8 it says, “And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing. But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he preached the gospel to all the towns until he came to Caesarea.” When it says the Spirit of the Lord carried him away, what does that mean? Was he teleported or just directed to leave? 4. Loving the show, you guys are awesome. Can you share with us your favorite parables and tell us what you like about them? 5. Does Deuteronomy 26 where it talks about welcoming the stranger apply to us today or has this command passed away with the Old Covenant? How would Christians or churches put this into practice?
