In this episode Dennis speaks from Mark chapter 9 where Jesus talks about humility and how we ought to have salt in ourselves which means we need to preserve the unity in following him. Dennis also ties this in with Romans 14 and 1 Corinthians 8 where Paul takes the same principles Jesus taught and then applies them to local contexts in which he was writing.

David and Kylie Knight are professional illusionists who use their skills to put on professional shows while sharing the hope of the Gospel and about people's value as image bearers of God. Their focus is to put on high quality, family friendly shows for local churches as a way to enhance outreach for the local church. The Knights say they don't want to be the center of attention; they want the local church to be the focus. So while they may bring in the crowd with their show, the connections they make are between the community and the local church they perform in.

If you want to book the Knights for a show at your local church or event you can do so here:

The Southern Baptist Convention just had their annual meeting where they decided, in part, what to do with churches in their denomination that allowed for women pastors. This issue of women pastors is a very contentious issue and everyone on the internet has their opinion that is absolutely and unequivocally based in biblical truth and anyone who disagrees is an apostate! Well...maybe that position is a bit extreme.
