Can I be SURE about Heaven?

<p>Am I really going to heaven? In this episode of the Why Do Christians podcast, Mark, Pastor Burt, and Pastor Josh dive into what the Bible actually says about assurance of salvation, and why so many of us still feel uncertain.</p><p></p><p>They look at different Christian views on the sinner’s prayer and baptism, discuss seasons of doubt, and explain why real confidence doesn’t come from our performance, but from Christ’s finished work. With Scriptures like John 10, Galatians 4, and Matthew 7, they tackle tough issues like famous “Lord, Lord” verse, and false assurance. Showing how trust in Jesus (not our good works) is the foundation of our hope.</p><p></p><p>If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re “good enough” for Heaven, or worried you could lose your salvation, this conversation is for you.</p><p></p><p>The Bridge Podcast Network is made possible by generous support from The Boardwalk Plaza Hotel and Victoria’s Restaurant on the boardwalk in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware - Open 7 days a week, year-round - Learn more at https://boardwalkplaza.com</p><p></p><p>Feedback, or Show Ideas?

Spiritual Attacks

<p>Are you really under spiritual attack—or is it just “one of those days”? In this episode of the Why Do Christians podcast, we tackle a big question from a listener: “How can you tell the difference between a genuine spiritual attack and your own thoughts, choices, or circumstances?”</p><p></p><p>They unpack what the Bible says about the world, the flesh, and the devil. They walk through examples where everyday struggles like pride, unforgiveness, sexual temptation, or even a bad day can have a spiritual component.</p><p></p><p>You’ll hear how Christians often either over-spiritualize everything saying “the devil made me do it,” or under-spiritualize life “it’s all just me,’ and how to find a biblical middle ground. Drawing from passages like Ephesians 2, Job, and the story of Judas, the guys remind us that while the enemy is real, Christ’s authority is greater, and our primary response in any trial is simple: cling to Jesus and stay faithful.</p><p></p><p>The Bridge Podcast Network is made possible by generous support from The Boardwalk Plaza Hotel and Victoria’s Restaurant on the boardwalk in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware - Open 7 days a week, year-round - Learn more at https://boardwalkplaza.com</p><p></p><p>Feedback, or Show Ideas?

When To Stop Praying

<p>Feeling worn out from praying the same prayers and not seeing anything change? In this episode of the Why Do Christians podcast, Mark, Pastor Josh, and Pastor Burt ask: When should I stop praying… or should I ever?</p><p></p><p>They talk about what to do when God feels silent, why Jesus tells us to keep asking, seeking, and knocking, and how to tell the difference between trusting God’s will and lowering your expectations so you don’t get hurt.</p><p></p><p>Using stories from Scripture like Jesus in Gethsemane, Paul’s thorn in the flesh, and Moses begging to enter the Promised Land. They explore when it’s right to keep praying, when it’s time to shift your prayers, and why shame and “I didn’t pray hard enough” guilt are not God’s voice.</p><p></p><p>If you’ve ever wondered whether God cares about your unanswered prayers, this conversation is for you.</p><p></p><p>The Bridge Podcast Network is made possible by generous support from The Boardwalk Plaza Hotel and Victoria’s Restaurant on the boardwalk in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware - Open 7 days a week, year-round - Learn more at https://boardwalkplaza.com</p><p></p><p>Feedback, or Show Ideas?
