“How could a loving God ever send anyone to Hell?” Chances are, you’ve heard someone ask that question when sharing the bad news part of The Gospel. The reality is, God doesn’t send anyone there. In today’s edition of the Broad and Narrow Podcast, Pastor Tom talks about the purpose of Hell, why God created it, and why souls end up there.

Fair is fair, right? Well, that would depend on who’s setting the standard, and fair doesn’t always mean a desirable outcome, especially when it comes to justice.

Have you ever heard the expression “miss the forest for the trees”? As believers in Christ, we can easily miss the whole point of devotions by treating them as tasks, rather than time with the Lord.

Many of us fall into the trap of measuring someone’s or something’s success at face value.

One of the interesting things about humanity is just how different each society can be. In fact, it’s probably because of such differences that we have so many different denominations of the Church.

In today’s discussion, Pastor Tom will reflect on the Church, what its purpose is, and how we can live it out as believers in Christ.

Chances are you’ve seen your fair share of “NOTW” bumper stickers in traffic when commuting to and fro. As believers and followers of Christ, it’s important that we’re regularly mindful of the reality that we’re indeed “not of this world.” In today’s episode, Pastor Tom reflects on what it means to filter life’s experiences through a Kingdom-oriented perspective.

While it’s perfectly normal, as well as healthy, to have concerns, it’s important that we don’t let them devolve into worry. In fact, the Bible actually tells us repeatedly, “do not worry” and “do not fear.” What is it that you find yourself worrying about? In today’s discussion, Pastor Tom will emphasize the importance of seeking God’s Kingdom above all else, which is a tried-and-true way to put your worries at ease!
