Courageous Conversations about relevant topics you won't always hear in Bible Class and sermons. It will take courage to open up about issues that require careful discernment.
Does Jesus Need Washington?
Can political power accomplish what Jesus commissioned His church to do?
In this episode of Courageous Conversations for the Church, we examine Christian nationalism through the lens of Scripture, beginning with Jesus standing before Pilate in John 18. From Roger Williams's provocative warning about forced worship to the repentance of Nineveh, we explore the difference between government-sponsored religion and genuine transformation through the gospel.
Can Christians love their country and participate in politics without confusing patriotism with discipleship? What happens when the church begins looking to government to accomplish its mission?

Alcohol: Can I? Should I? Does It Master Me?
Does the Bible condemn every sip of alcohol? Maybe that's not the only question Christians should be asking.
Scripture clearly condemns drunkenness, but what about drinking socially, knowing your limit, Jesus turning water into wine, or Paul's advice to Timothy? And what should we do with what modern medicine now tells us about alcohol and its effects on our bodies?
In this episode of Courageous Conversations for the Church, we take an honest look at alcohol without trying to make Scripture say more than it says. Along the way, we consider Christian liberty, wisdom, influence, self-control, and Paul's challenging words: “I will not be dominated by anything” (1 Corinthians 6:12).
Perhaps the best questions aren't simply “Is it allowed?” or “Is it a sin?”
Can I? Should I? Does it master me?

The Secret Nobody Wants to Talk About
Pornography thrives in secrecy—and secrecy can leave Christians believing they are fighting the battle alone.
In this episode of Courageous Conversations for the Church, Bro. Scott talks candidly about pornography, lust, shame, and the spiritual and relational damage that can grow in the shadows. More importantly, he looks to Scripture for a path toward freedom through repentance, renewed thinking, accountability, grace, and bringing our struggles into the light.
If this is your struggle, I'm not talking about you. I am not condemning you. I'm talking to you. I am telling you that you don't have to keep hiding.
Sometimes the conversations we'd rather avoid are the conversations we most need to have.
