The Problem with the Modern Church
As we wrap up our study in Jesus's Sermon on the Mount we are confronted and convicted with the fact that we have not truly taken this message from Jesus seriously. This week the pastors discuss what could be one of the root problems with the modern church in America today...a lack of Jesus-like character. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/roodpastors/message

Christians Don't Have Rights
How many cheeks do you have? Does Jesus really expect us to turn the other cheek when someone hurts us? This week we kick off summer celebrating our 10th episode and are joined by Gabriel Castellanos as we continue our discussion in the sermon on the mount. The rubber meets the road when we are challenged to go against our prideful nature, laying down our rights and resisting the temptation to seek revenge. Matthew 5:38-48 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/roodpastors/message

Lust, Adultery and Divorce
The pastors cut right to the chase this week as we dive into the section Jesus' sermon on the mount where he addresses adultery, lust, and divorce. Why does God hate divorce? Is lust a choice? What is Jesus really trying to teach us about adultery? We tackle all this and more on this week's episode. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/roodpastors/message

The Age of Outrage
The pastors talk about the latest books they've read and continue the conversation on the sermon on the mount. This week the topic is ANGER. What is the difference between righteous anger and unrighteous anger? How do you know if you are experiencing righteous anger? In today's society it would seem that outrage has become a new fruit of the spirit, but what does Jesus say about that kind of behavior? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/roodpastors/message

Which Bible Do You Read?
We all have certain books in the Bible that we read, and some that we avoid. This week the pastors talk about the importance of reading the WHOLE Bible as a complete store that leads to Jesus and why we shouldn't just dismiss something because it's old. They discuss the difference between doing good and being good. Brenden contemplates becoming an anti-masker and Chopper is called out for his obsession with the Song of Solomon. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/roodpastors/message

The Christian Bubble
When Christians withdraw from culture how does it affect our society? What would happen if Christians really were salt and light to the world around them? What does that really look like? This week the pastors sit down to discuss Matthew 5:13-20, where Jesus challenges his listeners to be salt and light to the world around, seeking both evangelism and justice. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/roodpastors/message

Who is Really Blessed?
The beatitudes are not a list of steps to be blessed. Rather they give us a glimpse of the new kingdom established by Jesus, and what the people of this kingdom look like. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/roodpastors/message
