My mom died by suicide, and I wonder what happened to her. Help! Why does Jude mention that the archangel Michael disputed with Satan over the body of Moses? Does "store up treasures in heaven" have to do with tithing?

What if a true believer is sleeping around? Can we know who is truly saved and who isn't? Are some sins impossible for a Christian to commit? What does it mean to be born again? My daughter left her husband and wants a divorce. What can I do?

What if our worship songs were truly motivated by the new covenant message of our union with Christ? My son is a believer struggling with same-sex attraction, and he's wondering if it will prevent him from going to heaven? If I don't tithe, will I be cursed?

What is election (predestination)? My church won’t baptize me, because they say I’m living in sin. They say if I remarry, it will be adultery! My Bible teacher says Jesus is the Holy Spirit. Is that accurate? I wonder what God thinks of me being an introvert!

Are We Abusing Grace—or Finally Getting It? Let’s face it—grace makes people nervous. Say you’re totally forgiven, and someone’s bound to ask, “So… sin doesn’t matter anymore?” Mention freedom from the Law, and suddenly you’re accused of tossing out morality altogether.   In this message, “Grace Under Fire,” we take an honest, in-depth look at the toughest questions people ask about the message of God’s grace, including: If I’m totally forgiven, then why confess at all? What keeps me in line if I’m under grace? Why do I still struggle if Christ lives in me? This isn’t fluff or feel-good theology—it’s the powerful, liberating truth of the Gospel. The kind that silences shame, dismantles fear, and anchors you in Jesus.   So, if you’ve ever wrestled with doubt or been grilled by others, this message will equip and encourage you in just how amazing God’s grace really is. Watch now and discover grace that holds up under fire! Discussion Questions: Are we saying that sin doesn’t matter? If we’re totally forg

Someone in our community just died of suicide. What can I be ready to say or share when people ask me about his death? My son tells me I need to go to a real church, my baptism doesn't count, and I'm not reading the true Bible. Help me! My husband passed away five years ago, and since then I've been helping others. Now, I need a job and place to live. What should my next steps be?

What does Jude mean when it says, "build yourselves up"? And what about "praying in the Spirit"? Isn't that tongues? If not, what is it actually? My mother wants me to drive her to the Catholic church, but I wish she knew the truth about Jesus. What can I do? I put mud on my eyes and nothing happened. Why didn't God heal me?

How do we balance God's goodness with God's justice? What about those who have never heard? They never had a chance! My children say I'm not a real Christian, because I don't have enough godly sorrow over my sins and not enough true repentance. Are they right about me?

What does it mean to be "seated at God's right hand"? Does Jesus pray for us today? People are telling me that I'm going to Hell. What can I do? Why aren't we hearing people pray for Palestine (and Israel) and the children starving in Gaza?

Are those who have a form of godliness in 2 Timothy 3 actually saved or not? Is there any truth to generational curses for believers? Why was Uzzah killed for touching the ark of the covenant? Is the gift of tongues for every believer? Is it the sign of true salvation? If genuine tongues involves human languages, then what is the other phenomenon we see today?

I’m worried my love might grow cold and that I won’t stand firm until the end (Matthew 24). What can I do? I heard it’s not enough to be saved and now I need to be a disciple. What are your thoughts on this? My son is convinced we need to go to church on Saturday because of the Sabbath. Is this true? What are the names of the Holy Spirit? There are no “levels” for Christians, but what about the apostles? If I’m really saved, then why do I constantly get sinful thoughts flooding my mind? Is Jesus only drawing some people to be saved, leaving others with no invitation and no chance?

Why Bring a Casserole to a Catered Feast? Discussion Questions: Why do you think the original invitees rejected the banquet? What does this tell us about how some people respond to God's grace? How does this parable challenge the idea that God's invitation is only for the “qualified”? What does it say about who is welcome? If grace is truly a “banquet” already prepared, why do people still try to bring something to the table? React to this statement: Drop your excuses and enjoy what God has freely given you! Which debtor do you most identify with right now—the one forgiven little or the one forgiven much? How does your awareness of God’s forgiveness affect your love for Him and others? Why do you think the Pharisee was so cold toward Jesus, while the woman was so expressive and emotional? React to this statement: Those who are forgiven much, love much. What meant the most to you from this message? Why?

How do I share the message of God‘s grace with my father without it becoming a debate? How do the Jehovah’s Witnesses differ from born-again believers? At salvation, are we even forgiven for our future sins? Somebody told me that when I sin, my heart is filled with sin and I need to cleanse it. Is this true? If not, what is the healthy response to sinning?

How can we share the gospel with those in an alternative lifestyle? Is the unpardonable sin only the Jews’ rejection of Jesus‘s miracles? Or is it rejection of Jesus by any of us? There are so many opinions about tongues. What is the truth?

If believers don’t have to worry about their sins at the final judgment, then what’s up with 1 Peter 4:17? If we all get the same reward, then what is Jesus talking about in Revelation 22?

How do you know you’re saved if you’re still intentionally sinning? Why did my friend get so angry in defending his view of predestination? What can I say to him? The gospel doesn’t seem fair when the guy who has bad behavior gets saved, and the one with good behavior goes to Hell. Can you help me understand this?

I have been very discouraged lately because of my sin struggles. Can you help me? Could Judas have been forgiven for betraying Jesus? How do I better relate to my teenage children and inspire them? My friend is telling me that we are totally forgiven positionally but not relationally. Is that true?

Why do you call John 17 the "real" Lord's prayer? Ezekiel 1-2 are filled with creatures, symbols, and a commissioning of the prophet. Can you explain this? How is true, biblical discernment different from the judging of others that I often see? Did Jesus really say that some standing before Him would not die until the kingdom had come? How can that be if we are still waiting on His return today? I've been saturated in the message of grace for decades, and now I'm sharing it with others! How can I decide whom to give money to? I often feel pressure but want to use discernment in my giving. Why is it such a big deal to know the cross is the true dividing line of human history? I broke off my engagement, because she's pro-choice. Would a "mixed household" still be blessed by God?

“Wait... We All Get the Same Reward?”   React to this statement: “Grace doesn’t check the timecard.” What does this truth reveal about how God views your life story, your past mistakes, and your late starts? How does this parable challenge the idea that Christians will receive different levels of reward in heaven based on performance? In what ways does it affirm that Jesus is the reward—and that the reward begins right now? Have you ever felt like a “latecomer” in the faith, or that you’ve missed out on something by not doing more, sooner? How does God’s equal generosity in this parable speak to those feelings? What does this story say to the person who has spent a lifetime in religious effort trying to “earn” more from God? How can this parable set them free? React to this statement: “Comparison kills joy. Grace revives it.” Where have you seen comparison steal joy in your life? How might embracing grace bring you peace? In what areas of your life do you catch yourself keeping score—with others or even with

Is it okay to get a tattoo? What about a tattoo of Scripture? Did Eve lie when she said they must not "touch" the tree? Are all snakes from Satan? If we get more people to pray with us, is it more likely for God to answer "yes"?
