Have you heard of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ being called "cosmic child abuse"? It's a powerful but false accusation about what actually happened on the cross. If God is a God of love, how could He do such a thing to Jesus when Jesus didn't do anything wrong to deserve it?" We're going to answer that today. So let's get started.

Tonight we are going to discuss a new kind of prosperity gospel. One that tempts you with great wealth so that you can do more for the kingdom of God. It's a get-rich-quick scheme that is delivered by famous Christians. Let's take a look and see if we can discover why we should be wary of the promise of great wealth. Let's get started.

In this episode, we're going to talk about the idea of what it means to be free and the tremendous responsibility that comes along with that freedom. Is it true that we can do whatever we want to because we are free? That's the topic for today so let's get started.

When you hear people say that it doesn't cost anything to be a Christian, have you ever asked yourself it that is true? There is a cost. But we are not talking about the amount of money you put in the offering plate. We are not talking about the investment of your time in the church building. Tonight, we are talking about the cost that Jesus spoke about when He stated "Count the Cost". This is one that we need to look at. So let's get started.
