Are you carrying crushing guilt because an adult child has walked away from God? In today’s episode of our series, The Bible Never Said That, we tackle one of the most frequently asked questions in Christian parenting: What if you raise your kids in church and they still leave?

Many families hold onto Proverbs 22:6 like an ironclad legal contract, believing that if they do everything right, raising Christian kids will automatically prevent permanent rebellion. However, this text is part of biblical wisdom literature, describing general life patterns rather than unconditional individual prophecies.

Join us for this deep-dive Bible study podcast as we dismantle the performance-driven mother guilt and parental anxiety that leaves so many households living under false shame. We unpack Ephesians 6:4 and Romans 14:12 to show why Christian parenting is a matter of faithful stewardship, not individual salvation. You cannot force conviction or control another adult's heart, but you can learn how to stop treating your child like a spiritual project and start trusting God with the seeds of truth you have planted.

Listen in to this devotion to discover how to navigate deconstruction in Christianity, how to handle a child leaves the faith situation without panicking, and how to practicalize praying for children who have wandered from the church.

Can you say you belong to God while keeping certain areas of your life completely locked away from Him? In today’s episode, we dive into a deep Old Testament study of the final chapters of Leviticus—a section of Scripture many believers skip because of its intense commands and severe rules.

True biblical holiness isn't a superficial religious performance. Through this bible study podcast, we explore how God's ancient laws on integrity, boundaries, and biblical justice reveal His desire for us to walk cleanly in His presence. We take a look at the sacred calendar of Israel to see how a daily devotion of remembering God’s past faithfulness can break our modern cycles of worry and anxiety.

We also unpack how major biblical celebrations like the Passover and the Day of Atonement serve as a prophetic shadow of Christ, pointing directly to the cross. If you want to understand how to take God seriously without falling into legalism, join us for this week's spiritual growth podcast as we learn what it truly means to say, "I am Yours."

Most of us love mercy when we are the ones who need it. But the real test comes when someone else fails us, hurts us, disappoints us, or owes us something. Jesus said a changed heart does not only receive mercy. It learns to give it.

In this episode of Changed From the Inside: How Jesus Transforms the Human Heart, host Kyle examines one of the most challenging Beatitudes: “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” Mercy can sound beautiful until we are asked to extend it to someone who has genuinely wounded us. But biblical mercy is not weakness, passivity, or pretending that wrongdoing does not matter. Jesus calls His followers to something deeper—compassion that refuses cruelty while still allowing truth, accountability, wisdom, and healthy boundaries.

Through this intentional Bible study, Kyle walks through Matthew 5:7, Jesus’ command to “be merciful” in Luke 6:36, and the powerful warning found in the parable of the unmerciful servant in Matthew 18. This Bible teaching explores the difference between mercy and weakness, forgiveness and consequences, justice and revenge, while challenging believers to examine whether the mercy they gladly receive from God is beginning to reshape the way they treat others. If you are pursuing genuine spiritual growth while wrestling with bitterness, resentment, forgiveness, broken trust, or the desire for revenge, this episode offers a biblical path toward showing mercy without abandoning truth.
