Show Notes::What do the Four Horsemen of Revelation really represent? Are they future events still waiting to happen, or do they reveal a pattern that has been unfolding throughout history? More importantly, what does Revelation 6 teach believers living in a world filled with war, economic uncertainty, persecution, and fear? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Chris Fuller walks verse-by-verse through Revelation 6, examining the opening of the first six seals and the powerful imagery surrounding the Four Horsemen. Drawing connections to the Olivet Discourse, Old Testament prophecy, and the writings of the early Church Fathers, Chris explores how these visions reveal the sovereignty of Christ over history and the purpose behind God's unfolding plan. Grab your Bible and join us as we discover why Revelation 6 isn't meant to cause fear, but faith—calling believers to endure with hope, trust the reign of the Lamb, and faithfully proclaim the Gospel until Christ returns. //Resources Used In This Episode//Revelation 6, Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21, Psalm 45:3–5, Matthew 24:14, Zechariah 1:8–11, Zechariah 6:2–5, Leviticus 26:25, Matthew 24:6–8, Matthew 20:2, Ezekiel 4:16, Matthew 24:7, Ezekiel 14:21, Matthew 24:8, Luke 21:11, Leviticus 4:7, Matthew 24:9, Matthew 24:13, Psalm 79:10, Isaiah 13:1, Isaiah 13:5–6, Isaiah 13:9–10, Isaiah 34:4–5, Matthew 24:29, Hosea 10:8, Luke 23:30https://www.amazon.com/Revelation-Expository-Commentary-Thomas-Schreiner/dp/B0H4H8295T/ref=sr_1_5?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Yy6DXVtn9G9PhameoQ_9wNAGZUjqyE-E2f2xD5yXlBg0f-eRnxLsKghTFiP1BwDJEvizMLPMwtxFIi6Hc2e1QKjout7T4vbtf0O3IsNMC-9QgEiGJT-Pe592JE1TBvFeZDd40exG_n8FMrtgEKOZUI_E-U1Cq8z41v4f4NMqWMPpBScZpxIL5wKI1BnTXDap28GvLvkFV6YMoR3x8_6Pefh-Op0oP123aipsHoatkmM.UB9T6TPY6Qy8QHIpiLDYu-Xw55UpEnXsexiXMz-Rvrg&dib_tag=se&hvadid=792602072301&hvdev=c&hvexpln=67&hvlocphy=9258415&hvnetw=g&hvocijid=11665506615357143655--&hvqmt=e&hvrand=11665506615357143655&hvtargid=kwd-2227096079649&hydadcr=2931_13892005&keywords=revelation+thomas+schreiner&mcid=e42cbbe17e5b3031bfc1624f2b96caf0&qid=1785855398&sr=8-5https://www.orcuttchristian.org/Gaius%20Marius%20Victorinus_Commentary%20on%20the%20Apocalypse%20of%20the%20Blessed%20John.pdf //Other Episode You Might Enjoy//https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/168-am-i-spiritually-ready-a-look-at-matthew-251-13/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/bonus-wars-and-rumors-of-wars/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/263-misconceptions-about-heaven/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/076-the-rapture-of-the-church/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/295-revelation-think-again/ // Helpful Links //https://www.youtube.com/@realtalkchristianpodcastThe Christian Standard Bible: https://csbible.comLifeway Christian Resources: www.lifeway.comGot Questions?: www.gotquestions.orgDwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.ioCross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://www.crossformedkids.comRTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcastRTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.comTwin Valley Coffee: https://www.coffeehelpingmissions.comRevive festival : Music Festival | En Gedi Music Fest | Leonidas, MI (myrevivefest.com)Let Them Live: https://letthemlive.orgSouth Side Baptist Church - https://www.southsidesbc.org/Hope Coffee - https://hopecoffee.com/

Show Notes::What would Jesus say about your church... or your heart? Could today's churches be repeating the same mistakes? More importantly, what would Jesus say if He wrote a letter to us? The seven churches in Revelation weren't written to just for believers living in the first century. They were written to reveal the spiritual condition of Christ's Church—and they still speak powerfully to us today. In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Chris Fuller walks verse-by-verse through Revelation 2–3, exploring the historical background of each church and the timeless message Jesus gave to them. From the church that lost its first love, to the church that remained faithful through suffering, to the lukewarm church that had become spiritually complacent, each letter serves as both a warning and an invitation. Grab your Bible and join us as we discover how these ancient letters continue to challenge, encourage, and call believers to repentance, faithfulness, and wholehearted devotion to Christ. //Resources Used In This Episode//Revelation 2-3https://learn.ligonier.org/devotionals/to-the-church-in-ephesushttps://learn.ligonier.org/devotionals/to-the-church-at-smyrnahttps://www.diggingfortruth.org/digging-deeper/church-at-pergamoshttps://www.gotquestions.org/doctrine-of-Balaam.htmlhttps://learn.ligonier.org/devotionals/to-the-church-in-thyatira-ihttps://www.diggingfortruth.org/digging-deeper/church-of-sardishttps://www.inspiringfaith.us/philadelphia-turkey-the-faithful-churchhttps://www.thegospelcoalition.org/podcasts/carson-center/historical-context-lessons-laodicea-principles-biblical-interpretation/ //Other Episode You Might Enjoy//https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/295-revelation-think-again/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/146-are-you-prepared/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/076-the-rapture-of-the-church/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/226-how-do-you-find-joy-in-difficult-times/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/168-am-i-spiritually-ready-a-look-at-matthew-251-13/ // Helpful Links //https://www.youtube.com/@realtalkchristianpodcastThe Christian Standard Bible: https://csbible.comLifeway Christian Resources: www.lifeway.comGot Questions?: www.gotquestions.orgDwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.ioCross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://www.crossformedkids.comRTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcastRTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.comTwin Valley Coffee: https://www.coffeehelpingmissions.comRevive festival : Music Festival | En Gedi Music Fest | Leonidas, MI (myrevivefest.com)Let Them Live: https://letthemlive.orgShut Side Baptist Church - https://www.southsidesbc.org/

In an era where Google searches are declining and people are increasingly turning to AI for life's biggest questions—including matters of faith—two Nashville pastors are refusing to let secular ideology win by default.
Erik Reid and Ryan "Coat" Coatney join the podcast to discuss why they've invested in building Dominion AI, a Christian worldview-informed alternative to mainstream AI tools, and why Christians can't afford to sit this revolution out.
The conversation tackles the real tension many believers face: AI is becoming the most influential voice in every person's life, yet most Christians are either completely unaware of its impact or tempted to reject it entirely. Erik and Coat dive deep into how AI is already shaping the way people think about truth, morality, and meaning—often without anyone realizing the secular assumptions baked into every response.
They address pressing questions from the Christian community with refreshing honesty: Can AI replace pastors and artists? How can church leaders use these tools responsibly without compromising their calling? What about the danger of isolation as people build "personal cathedrals" with AI instead of engaging in real community? And yes, they even tackle whether AI could be connected to the mark of the beast. Whether you're a parent worried about your kids growing up in an AI-saturated world, a pastor trying to navigate these tools faithfully, or simply someone who wants to understand what's really at stake when we let machines answer our biggest questions, this episode challenges you to think critically about the worldview behind the technology we're all about to depend on.

Show Notes::Over the last 6 years, we've talked about if we should celebrate Halloween, Satan and his demons, dead people walking horror films, haunted houses, and extra terrestrials. But what about Tarot Cards, Palm Readings, Horror Scopes, and Psychics? What should our response be to these things? IN this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller talk about what the Bible says about these things and how it applies to us in this culture.

Fresh off a wild two days at Revive Fest (complete with rainy weather, bubble machines, and listeners bearing gifts of zebra cakes), Marc & Fuller take a different approach in this episode by answering personal questions their community has been asking. What starts as lighthearted banter about coffee preferences and boxing matches quickly transitions into deeper territory as they tackle one of the most vulnerable questions they've received: what almost made them leave Christianity?
The conversation gets particularly raw as they discuss the struggle of watching genuinely moral people from other faiths and wondering about their eternal destiny.
Between missing turns in the dark Michigan countryside, getting pulled over (for a license plate light, not drunk driving!), and dealing with shot voices from two days of ministry, Marc & Fuller manage to have one of their most honest conversations yet about doubt, other religions, and what keeps them anchored in their faith when everything else feels uncertain.

In this candid car conversation, Marc and Fuller tackle some of the most common and difficult questions about church life that the RTC Online Facebook Community has been asking. They dive deep into the thorny issue of church attendance - when it's okay to miss and when you might be making excuses - while sharing personal stories about their own church search experiences. The discussion gets particularly honest when they explore the challenges of finding a new church home, including what to look for, how long the process might take, and the difference between healthy church transfers versus unhealthy "church shopping."
The conversation takes a personal turn as they share their own stories of leaving churches - one for doctrinal reasons and another for family reestablishment after major life changes. They also wrestle with one of the most challenging scenarios many couples face: what to do when your spouse, whether saved or unsaved, simply doesn't want to attend church. Their advice emphasizes patience, prayer, and having difficult but loving conversations while maintaining the importance of remaining connected to the body of Christ, even when circumstances make it complicated.
On, and we almost hit a deer.

Conversation starts at 5:45
In this "RTC on the Road" episode (recorded after the Smith's wedding), Marc and Fuller tackle four challenging faith questions:
- What does trusting God look like in everyday life?
- How do you keep faith when life falls apart?
- Have you ever felt like God was silent?
- And when have you had to forgive someone who didn't deserve it?
The conversation gets real quickly as they explore the difference between first-world problems and genuine crisis, the balance between taking action and trusting God's sovereignty, and why basing faith on feelings can be dangerous during difficult seasons.
The discussion turns deeply personal when they address forgiveness. Marc shares his honest struggle with forgiving those who have hurt his family through divorce, while Fuller opens up about his own journey forgiving parents who ruled by fear rather than love. They examine the difference between forgiveness and restoration, the role of boundaries in relationships, and how the church should handle abuse and betrayal. This unscripted conversation offers raw, honest perspectives on faith's most challenging questions without easy answers or spiritual platitudes.

What happens when your Christian convictions collide with today's cultural realities? How do you love people while staying true to biblical principles? And what do you do when you're too exhausted from ministry to actually live out your faith?
Marc and Fuller tackle some of the hardest questions facing Christians today while driving to a wedding in Peru, Indiana. From the RTC Facebook group, listeners asked about everything from spiritual armor to same-sex weddings to passing faith down to the next generation.
You'll hear Marc explain why the "belt of truth" keeps your pants up (literally and spiritually), while Fuller admits he's still working on that whole "gospel of peace" thing. They dive deep into the messy reality of LGBTQ wedding invitations - should you go or not? Marc shares a personal story about drawing loving boundaries, while Fuller wrestles with the ministry implications of saying yes or no.
But maybe the most honest moment comes when they open up about their current faith struggles. Marc's trying to figure out how to raise kids who own their faith instead of just inheriting it. Fuller's battling the exhaustion that comes with being an elder - turns out spiritual leadership can actually make your faith harder, not easier.
No easy answers here, just two dudes being real about the complicated business of living out biblical convictions in 2025. Join the conversation and see if you relate to their struggles.
Recorded on the road - because sometimes the best conversations happen between destinations.

Join Marc and Fuller as we start a new series called "RTC On The Road!" In this episode, Marc and Fuller are heading to an RTC listener's wedding and had some real, honest conversations. In this episode, they talk about three different questions, asked by RTC listeners. These questions are:* "What's one way to stay spiritually disciplined when traveling or outside of routine?" * "What's the difference between conviction and guilt in a Christian life?" * "What's one mistake you made in your faith journey that taught you a lot?"

–––A couple years ago, we changed up Real Talk Christian Podcast:* Tighter episodes * Less banter (that didn't last too long did it ) * Every other week episodes
We know that many folks want either (a) more episodes (b) more honest conversations from the heart. Honestly, we can't provide (a), but we are gunna provide (b)! For the first handle of episodes of season 7, we're trying something different! We are going to be doing "RTC On The Road" where Fuller and I record honest conversations while driving around to different places! Sure, it may not have the same flavor (and we definitely don't have show notes in front of us), but we're hoping that by us getting back to the roots of "real talk," you'll be able to join us in the honest conversations and honest processing of the Christian faith.

Last week, we received this question:
"I have a question that has been keeping me awake at night. If god predestines people to hell for his glory, is he still good? I understand that hell exists as the ultimate absence of God and as the final form of giving people over to sin. However I don’t understand how god can allow sin to exist, knowing that he is sending his children to hell."
In this bonus episode, you'll hear Marc's answer to this question.

Christian Nationalism, it is a word that has been associated with conservative Christians that view things in a certain way.

Marc went live over in the Facebook group to talk all about Pontius Pilate. Over the last few weeks, we have received a few different questions about Pontius Pilate, including:
- Was Pontius Pilate real?
- Why didn't Pontius Pilate just release Jesus if he knew Jesus was innocent?
- Why does the Church Creed blame Pontius Pilate for Jesus' death even though Pilate washed his hands of Jesus' death in the Bible?
We hope this conversation is a blessing to you this Holy Week!

Show Notes::Heaven is a place of bliss, where we will be reunited with our loved ones and worship the King forever. But has our vision of heaven been tainted by the thoughts of man? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller discuss some of these misconceptions about heaven and what the Bible gives us a some truth into what eternal life will look like. //Resources Used In This Episode//1. "Heaven is a Boring, Eternal Church Service”Many imagine heaven as an unending church service where people sing hymns forever.a) Heaven is a place of eternal worship (Revelation 7:9-10).b) Heaven is also described as a place of joy, fulfillment, and purpose. In Revelation, John speaks of the nations bringing their glory into the New Jerusalem, suggesting vibrant activity (Revelation 21:24-26).c) Isaiah speaks of people building and enjoying their work in the new creation (Isaiah 65:21-22).2. “Heaven is Just a Spiritual State”Some believe heaven is purely a non-physical, spiritual existence.Scripture speaks of a "new heaven and new earth" (Revelation 21:1) where God’s people will dwell in resurrected, physical bodies (1 Corinthians 15:42-44). This indicates a tangible, physical reality.3. “We Become Angels in Heaven”The idea that humans transform into angels after death is popular in media and culture.Yet, we see in scripture that angels are distinct beings created by God (Psalm 8:5; Hebrews 1:14).Humans retain their identity but are glorified and perfected in heaven (Philippians 3:21).4. “Heaven is for Everyone, Regardless of Belief”A common misconception is that everyone automatically goes to heaven.While God desires all to be saved (2 Peter 3:9), entrance into heaven requires faith in Jesus Christ. “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6).5. “Heaven Will Be an Escape from Responsibility”Some view heaven as a place of eternal leisure, with no responsibilities or meaningful work.The Bible states that, in the new creation, believers will serve God (Revelation 22:3). This service will be fulfilling and joyful, without the toil and frustration of earthly labor (Genesis 3:17-19 vs. Isaiah 65:21-23).6. “Heaven is Our Final Destination”It’s often assumed that heaven is where Christians spend eternity after death.Heaven is an intermediate state where believers are with Christ after death (Philippians 1:23). However, the ultimate destination is the new heaven and new earth, where heaven and earth are united and God dwells with His people (Revelation 21:3).7. “We’ll All Look the Same”The idea that we’ll lose our individuality in heaven is a common fear.Revelation 7:9 describes a great multitude from every nation, tribe, and language worshiping God together. This implies that diversity and individuality are preserved in heaven.8. “Heaven is a Second Chance After Death”Some believe that people will get a second chance to choose Christ after they die.The Bible teaches that judgment comes after death (Hebrews 9:27). Decisions about faith in Jesus must be made in this life.9. "Our Loved Ones Become Guardians Watching Over Us”Many believe deceased loved ones watch over us from heaven.While believers in heaven are aware of God’s plan unfolding (according to Hebrews 12:1), there’s no evidence they actively intervene in earthly affairs. Only God has omniscience and control over our lives.10. "We’ll Forget Everything About Earth”Some think that all memories of earthly life will be erased in heaven.Scripture suggests continuity between this life and the next. For example, Jesus retained His scars after His resurrection (John 20:27), and believers will likely remember God’s faithfulness in their earthly lives. However, we can speculate that painful memories will no longer bring sorrow (Revelation 21:4). //Other Episode You Might Enjoy//https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/183-what-will-the-new-heaven-and-earth-look-like/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/049-new-heaven-new-earth-new-jerusalem-and-why-it-even-matters/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/181-where-did-jesus-go-when-he-died/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/168-am-i-spiritually-ready-a-look-at-matthew-251-13/https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/131-what-happens-to-those-who-dont-hear-the-gospel/ // Helpful Links //https://www.youtube.com/@realtalkchristianpodcastThe Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqiLifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4WvGot Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfqDwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8ECross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZRTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcastRTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.comTwin Valley Coffee: https://www.coffeehelpingmissions.comRevive festival : Music Festival | En Gedi Music Fest | Leonidas, MI (myrevivefest.com)Toccoa Coffee:https://toccoacoffee.comRTC Merch-https://rtcpodcast.redbubble.comLet Them Live: https://letthemlive.org

This week, we are reflecting on the fifth and final advent candle: The White Candle, symbolizing that Jesus is here! The word advent means “coming” or “arrival” and speaks of Jesus’ arrival that first Christmas morning in Bethlehem. The season of Advent is a time when we joyously and prayerfully anticipate the celebration of Jesus’ first coming. And, we look forward to His second coming, while also affirming that He is present in the world today offering His redeeming love to anyone who will simply receive it. One of the most beautiful symbols of the Advent season is the traditional Advent wreath. This Advent wreath is intended to help us keep our focus on the real reason for the season – the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Each Sunday leading up to Christmas, we will be talking about a different candle – representing, in order, hope, peace, joy, and love – although we usually light these candles in our homes, we obviously can’t do that on the podcast, but we will still talk about the candles as a way to remember each week in the advent season.

It's that time of year!

This week, we are reflecting on the second advent candle: Peace. The word advent means “coming” or “arrival” and speaks of Jesus’ arrival that first Christmas morning in Bethlehem. The season of Advent is a time when we joyously and prayerfully anticipate the celebration of Jesus’ first coming. And, we look forward to His second coming, while also affirming that He is present in the world today offering His redeeming love to anyone who will simply receive it. One of the most beautiful symbols of the Advent season is the traditional Advent wreath. This Advent wreath is intended to help us keep our focus on the real reason for the season – the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Each Sunday leading up to Christmas, we will be talking about a different candle – representing, in order, hope, peace, joy, and love – although we usually light these candles in our homes, we obviously can’t do that on the podcast, but we will still talk about the candles as a way to remember each week in the advent season. So join us for these 4 Advent weeks and then the final episode on Christmas Day as we set time to focus our eyes, minds, and hearts on Jesus – the true reason for the season.

Show Notes::When you talk to folks about Christianity, you often hear complaints that they don't want to follow a God that has a bunch of rules and regulations and makes people "not live their truth." You also hear from folks who walk away from the faith say that they are like a butterfly — they finally are free from their tightly bound cocoon and can fly free in the world. You also hear folks say that the fear of judgment is just Christian's ways of control people's lives and causing guilt and shame when there shouldn't be. But is this indeed true? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller sit down to discuss the difference between the world's version of freedom and what true freedom looks like.

Marc went live over in the Facebook group to talk all about Pontius Pilate. Over the last few weeks, we have received a few different questions about Pontius Pilate, including:
- Was Pontius Pilate real?
- Why didn't Pontius Pilate just release Jesus if he knew Jesus was innocent?
- Why does the Church Creed blame Pontius Pilate for Jesus' death even though Pilate washed his hands of Jesus' death in the Bible?
We hope this conversation is a blessing to you this Holy Week!

Today, we have another classic replay that I think has to be one of my favorites. Back on episode 85 (in season 2), Marc and Fuller had a real heart to heart conversation about why we are Christians. Many times on our show, we have a lot bunch of notes, stats, teaching points, theological points, and Scriptures all ready to go, but this conversation is much more personal in nature. The point of this conversation was to (a) let you know why we are Christians and (b) help you answer the question, "so why are you a Christian?" We explore both personal and intellectual reason for the faith that we have and in doing such, we hope you are encouraged in your faith as well. And if you're new to the faith, we hope that this conversation paints a beautiful picture of why Christianity isn't just a blind belief, but it truly is both an intellectual faith and a personal one. // Helpful Links //https://www.youtube.com/@realtalkchristianpodcastThe Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqiLifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4WvGot Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfqDwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8ECross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZRTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcastRTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.comTwin Valley Coffee: https://www.coffeehelpingmissions.comRevive festival : Music Festival | En Gedi Music Fest | Leonidas, MI (myrevivefest.com)Toccoa Coffee:https://toccoacoffee.comRTC Merch-https://rtcpodcast.redbubble.com
Today, we are going back into the archives to bring you a classic replay called "I Know God Loves Me But Does He Like Me?" It was originally released back in Season 2 on December 10, 2020, and I think it's a great one for us to listen to with where many of us find ourselves today. As we enter a new year, we often set new year goals, make resolutions, maybe choose a word for the year, all with the purpose of either growing in our personal lives or growing more in our faith. But what happens when the crap hits the fan and you look back and realize that even though you had good intentions, you feel like you're farther from God than when you started. For those of us who are parents, we know that somedays are harder than others. There's a phrase out there that goes, "we love our kids but at the moment, I don't like them very much," especially when they do things to intentionally hurt us, themselves, or others, and since we often relate to God how we relate to our own parents or our children, maybe you've sat back and wondered, "Does God like me right now?" Maybe you find yourself in a struggle of life, maybe you found yourself all alone, maybe you find yourself at rock bottom. We hope this classic replay encourages to remember that there is nothing that can separate from the love of God. // Helpful Links //https://www.youtube.com/@realtalkchristianpodcastThe Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqiLifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4WvGot Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfqDwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8ECross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZRTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcastRTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.comTwin Valley Coffee: https://www.coffeehelpingmissions.comRevive festival : Music Festival | En Gedi Music Fest | Leonidas, MI (myrevivefest.com)Toccoa Coffee:https://toccoacoffee.comRTC Merch-https://rtcpodcast.redbubble.com

The word advent means “coming” or “arrival” and speaks of Jesus’ arrival that first Christmas morning in Bethlehem. The season of Advent is a time when we joyously and prayerfully anticipate the celebration of Jesus’ first coming. And, we look forward to His second coming, while also affirming that He is present in the world today offering His redeeming love to anyone who will simply receive it. One of the most beautiful symbols of the Advent season is the traditional Advent wreath. This Advent wreath is intended to help us keep our focus on the real reason for the season – the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Each Sunday leading up to Christmas, we will be talking about a different candle – representing, in order, hope, peace, joy, and love – although we usually light these candles in our homes, we obviously can't do that on the podcast, but we will still talk about the candles as a way to remember each week in the advent season.

In the last handful of years, conversations around transgenderism have grown to common place to the point where the church now has to ask a question, “How should we think and respond to this movement?” In answering this question and others around the LGBTQ+ community, the church is starting to draw lines in the sand and separating from one another. In doing such, many individual Christians are beginning to also ask questions about transgenderism. In this episode RTC, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller step into this question with looking to the Bible for answers because if we believe that God created us, we need to see just how he created each person.

Marc and Fuller went live on Facebook via Zoom on Good Friday 2020 to talk about the beauty of Good Friday. In this episode, we talk about Jesus’ entering into Jerusalem, why the crowd went from “Hosanna” to “crucify him” in less than a week, why the Romans wanted Jesus dead, what Jesus accomplished on the cross, and why that’s import for us today.
As Protestants, we don’t need to be afraid to have a theology of the cross, and we hope that this conversations help you develop your thinking and beliefs.

Romans 3:23 says "we all sin and fall short of the glory of God", this is very well known no matter how long one has been a christian. There is something else that can come from the realization of the fact that all have sinned. Adam and Eve experienced it in the garden, shame. Once sin has happened, there are a lot of people who experience shame and guilt. The questions that are often asked are, "How can I move on past sin?" "Should I feel guilt and shame?" " How can I be forgiven?". These questions are at the forefront of many people's thoughts. So what do we do with all of this?

Many books, songs, and movies have been made about the one we call satan or the devil. GotQuestions.org says "People’s beliefs concerning Satan range from the silly to the abstract—from a little red guy with horns who sits on your shoulder urging you to sin, to an expression used to describe the personification of evil." This often leads to the question of "What do we really know about the devil and his demons? Who are they? Do they have any type of power?" In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller sit down for this interesting Halloween episode to try and determine the facts about the one called Satan. Bundle up, grab a hot drink, and strap in, for this riveting episode.

"You do you" has become a popular phrase with this generation because many people believe that we should all be able to do what what each person thinks is right – that there should be no laws prohibiting anyone if no one else is being hurt. This idea is being shared by some Christians as well, claiming that we are moving backwards in society by having laws that keep people from making their own choices. So how should christians approach this thought process? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc and Fuller sit down to talk about this conversation, but the catch with this conversation is that this question comes directly from Fuller's wife, Janeal.

In this episode, we go back into the archives once again to one of Fuller's favorite conversations: Speaking the Truth in Love. In the Bible, we read that Jesus came full of grace and truth, but how are we as Christians supposed to emulate that . . . especially when we have to confront someone. In this episode, Marc and Fuller talk about what it means to speak the truth in love from a Biblical perspective and then present a few ways that we can make sure that we lead with love when having conversations with both fellow believers and those who don't follow Jesus. // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 095: Do Our Works Follow Us After Death?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/095-do-our-works-follow-us-after-death/ 078: Focus: The World, The Kingdom, & The Balance: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/078-focus-the-world-the-kingdom-the-balance/ 075: Becoming a Peacemaker: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/075-becoming-a-peacemaker/ 042: Soul Mates & Finding “The One”: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/042-soul-mates-finding-the-one/ 010: Gay & Christian Conversation: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/010-gay-christian-conversation/ // Helpful Links // The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Brew it Forward Coffee Co: https://bit.ly/3k2Iz1Q Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com

It seems like so many mega church pastors keep failing and falling from ministry. With the popularity of Christianity Today’s new podcast The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill, people are starting to ask if mega churches and mega church pastors are truly biblical and if they do more damage than good. In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about why Mega Church pastors fall and if Mega Churches are the only places where pastors fall from ministry. Rather than stick to the gossip, they take the conversation one step farther to ask, "why do pastors fall and can that happen to anyone?"

It seems like many Protestant, evangelical Christians now a days are all about the 2nd amendment and the ability to own firearms for self defense, but how should Christians in America think about gun ownership and usage? Should we fight for our rights or fight to live in a gun free world? To take the conversation one step father, when you get to other parts of the world, Christians are asking why Americans seem so obsessed with guns. So what should Christians do? In this conversation, Marc and Fuller take a listener's question about guns and seek to find a Biblical answer to this question. In doing such, they look at the struggle that lies between fighting for our American rights while also following the Biblical mandate to die to ourselves.

Back2Back Ministries' primary mission is to provide every orphan child a home and place to belong, all 163 Million orphans in the world. With providing holistic orphan care, Back2Back has shaped and changed the world of orphan care and trauma training in many countries around the world, including countries in the 10/40 window. Although this ministry has a global reach, Back2Back has humble beginnings of two people who traveled to Mexico with basically no money, didn't know the language, but had a heart to love every orphan in the name of Jesus. In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller sit down with Beth Guckenberger, co-founder and co-executive director of Back2Back Ministries to hear the story of how God doesn't always show us his whole plan, but if we follow him in the little steps, you never know where he may bring you and how he may use your life to impact the world. This episode shares the story of Back2Back, but it also introduces listeners to what holistic care involves and how understanding holistic care will help you understand trauma and love those who are difficult to love. // Links mentioned in the episode // Back2back.org https://traumafreeworld.org Recklessfaith.com Video of Back2Back's work with the Tim Tebow Foundation: https://www.instagram.com/tv/CVJds8fghFM/ // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 074: How to Raise Christian Kids with Ryan Coatney of Cross Formed Kids: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/074-how-to-raise-christian-kids-with-ryan-coatney-of-cross-formed-kids/ 073: Being Pro-Life After Birth ft.

Over the last year, many (and may we say most) church have started to livestream their church's worship services, but before COVID even showed, many larger churches started to build online church experiences and communities. Many churches now have an "online campus" for their church and hire staff members and ordained pastors to oversee and shepherd the church's online community. In response to the growing online church community, there has also but much opposition to churches offering an online campus and online experience. In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller ask the question of "does online church even count?" With looking to both Scripture and practical wisdom, they set out to see if the nay-sayers have any ground to stand on or if churches who use online campus are simply using 21st Century technology to bring the Gospel into people's homes and develop them into disciples of Jesus. // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 103: False Teachers in the Church, Part 2 ft.

The dictionary defines "euthanasia" as the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma. Although the practice is illegal in most countries, the desire for its legalization is increasingly growing and many countries have started legalizing the practice. In America, a doctor's choice and decision of euthanasia is illegal; however, voluntary euthanasia is legal in Oregon and Washington and will soon be legal in other states as well. How should Christians think about this subject? In this conversation, Marc and Fuller dive deeper in their conversations about the Imago Dei (being made in the Image of God) and how having a proper framework and worldview is essential when having this conversation with anyone, including our own loved ones who are struggling with painful or incurable diseases. // Links Mentioned in This Episode // https://medicine.missouri.edu/centers-institutes-labs/health-ethics/faq/euthanasia // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 111: Are Christians Too Obsessed with Abortion?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/111-are-christians-too-obsessed-with-abortion/ 069: I Know God Loves Me, but Does God Like Me?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/069-i-know-god-loves-me-but-does-god-like-me/ 052: Coffee Mug Christianity (Phrases Christians Should Stop Saying): https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/052-coffee-mug-christianity/ 048: Made in the Image of God: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/048-made-in-the-image-of-god/ 024: Christians & Doubt: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/024-christians-doubt/ 005: Christians and Music, Part 1: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/005-christians-and-music-part-1/ // Helpful Links // The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Brew it Forward Coffee Co: https://bit.ly/3k2Iz1Q Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com

In Genesis, we read that on the seventh day of creation, God rested (this is where we get the Sabbath). Later on in history, when God gave Moses the 10 Commandments, one of those commandments was to remember the Sabbath Day and to keep it holy. In following that command, the Hebrew people understand the last day of the week (Saturday) to be the Sabbath Day, but when Jesus started his Church, his followers quickly moved their holy day to Sunday, which is why so many churches gather for corporate worship on Sunday...but not all denominations worship on Sundays, though. So, what should we do? And more than that, are Christians required to keep the Sabbath Day anyways? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss the Sabbath Day. They talk about what the Sabbath Day entails, why it's important, if Christians need to follow the Sabbath command, and if so, what day should the Sabbath be respected? //Links from this Episode// Desiring God Article: https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/should-christians-keep-the-sabbath The Bible Project on the Sabbath: https://bibleproject.com/explore/video/sabbath-video/ // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 108: Fasting: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/108-fasting/ 104: Salvation: Old Testament vs. New Testament: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/104-salvation-old-testament-vs-new-testament/ 054: What to do about Bible Translations: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/054-what-to-do-about-bible-translations/ 045: Is Tithing Biblical?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/045-is-tithing-biblical/ // Helpful Links // The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Maybe you've found yourself in a place where you are a lone Christian in the midst of atheist and skeptics and have to defend your belief in God, or maybe you've found yourself in a place where you yourself are being wonder "is there really a God?"

Social media: Every loves it; everyone hates it. We've seen in over the years (and even in recent months) that social media has the ability to bring people together or tear people apart. How should Christians handle themselves on social media? Marc and Fuller set out to answer this question on this weeks episode. // Links Mentioned in this Episode // https://www.relevantmagazine.com/culture/christians-lets-all-stop-doing-these-15-things-on-social-media/ https://www.oberlo.com/media/1620280037-social-media-statistics-stats-full.png?fm=webp&w=1824&fit=max https://www.communicatejesus.com/post/21-essential-proverbs-christians-social-media https://www.instagram.com/livingoftheword/ // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 095: Do Our Works Follow Us After Death?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/095-do-our-works-follow-us-after-death/ 078: Focus: The World, The Kingdom, & The Balance: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/078-focus-the-world-the-kingdom-the-balance/ 074: How to Raise Christian Kids with Ryan Coatney of Cross Formed Kids: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/074-how-to-raise-christian-kids-with-ryan-coatney-of-cross-formed-kids/ 051: The Importance of Prayer: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/051-the-importance-of-prayer/ 041: Is Gambling a Sin?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/041-is-gambling-a-sin/ 019: When the Church Hurts You: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/019-when-the-church-hurts-you/ // Helpful Links // The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Christians have been known as primarily "pro-life" when it comes to the abortion conversation but with the recent decision in Texas to not allow abortions after a detectable heartbeat, the conversation around abortion is taking center stage once again – both in news outlets and social media. In the wake of the decision, many people (both Christians and unbelievers) have not held back their opinions on the matter; which leaves the world asking "are Christians too obsessed with this conversation around abortion?"
In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about why Christians are obsessed with abortion, discuss if Christians are maybe a little too obsessed, and ask the question "is there ever an abortion that acceptable for Christians?" Although this is a sensitive subject, it's a conversation that Christians cannot be scared to talk about. With using both the Bible and reasoning is used in this conversation, you will be sure to both learn and enjoy this episode.

The world and people around us seems to becoming more and more divisive. Whether it's people arguing against masks, vaccines, and abortions, or just the opposite, you can't escape from hearing people's opinions and thoughts on what going on in the world. So, what should a Christians response be to the world around them? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller sit down with zero show notes and no game plan and simply talk. This conversation was a raw and honest conversation filled with many different questions and thoughts, all with the goal of answering the bigger question of what should be the christian’s response to the world around us? // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 103: False Teachers in the Church, Part 2 ft.

Sin is not good. As a rule of thumb, this statement is agreed upon in Christian circles, but here's a question that many wrestle with– are some sins worse than others? Based on what tradition you come from, you may answer this question differently. In the Catholic tradition, there are different types of sins (venial and mortals sins) and each sin has a different level of punishment. In the Protestant tradition, most people believe that sin is sin and God sees all sin the same. So, are there worse sins that others? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller look at both the Bible and church history to figure out if there sins that are worse than others and if there are, what that means for us as Christians. // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 099: Is It a Sin for a Christian to Date an Unbeliever?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/099-is-it-a-sin-for-a-christian-to-date-an-unbeliever/ 083: Sinful Excuses: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/083-sinful-excuses/ 067: How to Be Thankful in 2020: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/067-how-to-be-thankful-in-2020/ 061: Let’s Talk About Sin: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/061-lets-talk-about-sin/ 041: Is Gambling a Sin?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/041-is-gambling-a-sin/ 034: The One Sin That Won’t Be Forgiven: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/034-the-one-sin-that-wont-be-forgiven/ // Helpful Links // The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Ever heard of the word "fasting" used in your church or in Christianity? Fasting is a way of worship that is widely practiced in some expressions of Christianity, but in many others, fasting is rarely talked about. It's no shock, though, to see that the Bible talks about fasting in both the Old Testament and the New Testament, so why is there a divide between different denominations and fasting? In this weeks episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller look at the Bible to get a solid definition of the practice, and then discuss if fasting is something that all Christians should do? This episode is more teaching in nature so we hope that you enjoy learning about the form of worship! // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 101: Are Christians Under the Old Testament Law?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/101-are-christians-under-the-old-testament-law/ 093: Are the Gifts of the Spirit for Today?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/093-are-the-gifts-of-the-spirit-for-today/ 077: Does God Choose Us or Do We Choose God?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/077-does-god-choose-us-or-do-we-choose-god/ 075: Becoming a Peacemaker: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/075-becoming-a-peacemaker/ 045: Is Tithing Biblical?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/045-is-tithing-biblical/ // Helpful Links // Fasting for Beginners Article: https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/fasting-for-beginners The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Every child deserves a family to love and cherish them. Paraguay has approximately one thousand children in the care system, and only 5% of them are in family-based care. The vast majority of those children would thrive in foster care, and it is Little Neighbors' desire to see the local churches of Paraguay respond as we raise awareness and train a wave of safe, loving families. This week on RTC, Marc and Fuller sit down with Brian & Jackie McCobb, the directors of Little Neighbors, to talk about their mission to both help orphaned kids find loving homes and help the government create laws and policies to help set these kids up for success in life. This conversation will surely help you understand the heart of Jesus while also understanding the heart of Little Neighbors. // Learn More About Little Neighbors // Website: https://www.littleneighbors.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LittleNeighborsParaguay Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/littleneighborsparaguay/ // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 091: Should We Fight to Get God Back Into Schools?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/091-should-we-fight-to-get-god-back-into-schools/ 087: How to Impact the Community with Pastor Matt Nichols of Soul Harvest Church: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/087-how-to-impact-the-community-with-pastor-matt-nichols-of-soul-harvest-church/ 074: How to Raise Christian Kids with Ryan Coatney of Cross Formed Kids: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/074-how-to-raise-christian-kids-with-ryan-coatney-of-cross-formed-kids/ 073: Being Pro-Life After Birth ft.

In a world of Tinder, Bumble, Christian Mingle, eharmony, and so many other dating sites out there, finding a partner has never been easier! However, as many singles have realized, it may be easy to find a "match," but it seems harder and harder to find a life-long partner. When it comes to being single in the Christian community, it seems even harder to connect with one person, let alone connect with the church community at large. So, what should singles do? In this episode of RTC, Marc is joined by Beth (@tribeofhyde) to talk about singleness. Up until March, Beth was a Christian single who decided to not wait until her life was "put together" to start living her life and begin her family. We hope that this episode helps both singles and partners understand singleness according to the Bible and how being single doesn't make you any less of a person. // Links mentioned in the Episode // Beautiful Design sermon series with Matt Chandler: https://subsplash.com/thevillagechurch/lb/ms/+80f86b1 // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 099: Is It a Sin for a Christian to Date an Unbeliever?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/099-is-it-a-sin-for-a-christian-to-date-an-unbeliever/ 073: Being Pro-Life After Birth ft.

Many of us have friends and family who, although they profess to be Christians, seem to not live a life that matches up with Jesus and his teachings. What should we do in these situations? Are we allowed to wonder if they are saved? Should we bring up their actions or leave them in the hands of God? This week, Marc and Fuller takes a listener's question about how we should approach family members who profess Christianity but don't live like it. Starting with Scripture and ending with pieces of advice, this episode is less about learning about Jesus and more about learning how to love like Jesus. //Other Episodes You May Enjoy// 099: Is It a Sin for a Christian to Date an Unbeliever?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/099-is-it-a-sin-for-a-christian-to-date-an-unbeliever/ 087: How to Impact the Community with Pastor Matt Nichols of Soul Harvest Church: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/087-how-to-impact-the-community-with-pastor-matt-nichols-of-soul-harvest-church/ 077: Does God Choose Us or Do We Choose God?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/077-does-god-choose-us-or-do-we-choose-god/ 066: Answering the Call of the Kingdom: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/066-answering-the-call-of-the-kingdom/ 060: How Should We Study the Bible?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/060-how-should-we-study-the-bible/ 032: Getting Saved Only to Escape Hell?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/032-getting-saved-only-to-escape-hell/ 008: Teens & College Students, Part 1 (Being a Christian in a Public School): https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/008-teens-college-students-part-1/ //Helpful Links// The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Salvation is a "Christianese" word that we like to throw around inside of church and between believers, but do you know what it means? For Christians, it means deliverance from the consequences of our sins and being adopted in God's family. For Christians, we know that salvation only comes through Jesus' work on the cross . . . but have you ever wondered how salvation works for those people who lived before Jesus came to earth? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller continue with the Old Testament conversation of the law to see what the Bible says about salvation in the Old Testament versus salvation in the New Testament. //Other Episodes You May Enjoy// 101: Are Christians Under the Old Testament Law?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/101-are-christians-under-the-old-testament-law/ 087: How to Impact the Community with Pastor Matt Nichols of Soul Harvest Church: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/087-how-to-impact-the-community-with-pastor-matt-nichols-of-soul-harvest-church/ 085: Focus: Why am I a Christian?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/085-focus-why-am-i-a-christian/ 077: Does God Choose Us or Do We Choose God?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/077-does-god-choose-us-or-do-we-choose-god/ 061: Let’s Talk About Sin: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/061-lets-talk-about-sin/ 047: Ask RTC Anything, Part 2: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/047-ask-rtc-anything-part-2/ 038: Can One Love Without God?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/038-can-one-love-without-god/ //Helpful Links// The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com

In recent years, it seems that people from various camps have been calling popular teachers and pastors "false teachers," but what makes someone a false teacher? Is a false teacher just someone who you disagree with or does there need to be more to their teaching to be considered a "false teacher"? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller are joined by Rodney Buse of "What Does the Bible Say?" to help us all figure out how to spot false teachers in the church and what our steps should be when we realize that we found one. //Where to Find Rodney Buse and "What Does the Bible Say?"// YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFB63TgQNX9Pe-vCmOiodRg Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bwdtbs/ Website: https://butwhatdoesthebiblesay.buzzsprout.com //Other Episodes You May Enjoy// 095: Do Our Works Follow Us After Death?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/095-do-our-works-follow-us-after-death 075: Becoming a Peacemaker: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/075-becoming-a-peacemaker/ 074: How to Raise Christian Kids with Ryan Coatney of Cross Formed Kids: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/074-how-to-raise-christian-kids-with-ryan-coatney-of-cross-formed-kids/ 055: What does it mean if the world doesn’t hate us?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/055-what-does-it-mean-if-the-world-doesnt-hate-us/ 030: Is the church overusing it’s members?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/030-is-the-church-overusing-its-members/ 025: Cultural & Biblical Christianity: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/025-cultural-biblical-christianity/ 022: Finding God’s Will For Your Life: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/022-finding-gods-will-for-your-life/ //Helpful Links// The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
In recent years, there has been a big spotlight on the Old Testament Law and if Christians are called to live according to it; so much so that Hollywood and TV Producers have been making TV Shows where the main characters try to live according to the Old Testament Law. Christianity is a continuation of the Jewish faith, which does beckon the question: Should Christians strive to live according to the Old Testament Law? I mean, since God never changes, shouldn't his Law never change, too?

"No creed but the Bible!" The longer you live, the more you hear this statement said in churches and by Christians. Usually, when people make this statement, they have a good heart because Christians are supposed to follow the Bible, but is there a better way to learn, remember, and recite key Biblical doctrines. For centuries, the Church at large would use confessions or creeds to teach new converts and protect the church for heresy. This was practiced because there wasn't always a completed Bible, and even if there was, most people were illiterate. Since we are literate and have the Bible today, what do we do with all of these Creeds? In this weeks episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc and Fuller set off to answer this question. //Other Episodes You May Enjoy// 094: Is Baptism Essential?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/094-is-baptism-essential/ 090: What’s So Special about Mary, the Mother of Jesus?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/090-whats-so-special-about-mary-the-mother-of-jesus/ 086: The Catechism of Communion: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/086-the-catechism-of-communion/ 055: What does it mean if the world doesn’t hate us? https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/055-what-does-it-mean-if-the-world-doesnt-hate-us/ 036: What’s Up With All of These Different Denominations?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/036-whats-up-with-all-of-these-different-denominations/ 024: Christians & Doubt: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/024-christians-doubt/ 020: Who is the Sunday morning church service for, believers or unbelievers? https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/020-who-is-the-sunday-morning-church-service-for-believers-or-unbelievers/ //Helpful Links// Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Have you ever been at a place where you feel far from God but aren't sure what to do about it? Maybe you pray to God and feel like it stops at the ceiling, or maybe you feel like you've done everything for God but don't feel God presence in your every day life. So many Christians are walking away from God because of feeling far from God, but what should we do? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller share some of their own stories about feeling far from God. Using the Bible, they look at the promises of God and what it means to have faith, all while giving some pointers and tips on what to do when you feel far from God. In this episode, we also talk about one of our giveaways for episode 100! //Other Episodes You May Enjoy// 091: Should We Fight to Get God Back Into Schools?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/091-should-we-fight-to-get-god-back-into-schools/ 085: Focus: Why am I a Christian?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/085-focus-why-am-i-a-christian/ 075: Becoming a Peacemaker: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/075-becoming-a-peacemaker/ 051: The Importance of Prayer: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/051-the-importance-of-prayer/ 044: What does it mean to “find your identity in Christ?”: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/044-what-does-it-mean-to-find-your-identity-in-christ/ 007: The Untamable Tongue: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/007-the-untamable-tongue/ //Helpful Links// Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Idolatry is often thought of as bowing down and worshipping wooden statues, but what if we told you that idolatry is still present in today’s evangelical church? Would you believe us? In this week’s episode of RTC, Marc & Fuller discuss idolatry in the church, and ask if it’s as present as some people seem to believe. More than that, they try to figure out what would be some common idols that are creeping into today’s church. //Links Mentioned in This Episode// https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/how-to-expose-the-idols-in-your-life/ https://ericgeiger.com/2016/01/three-common-idols-in-churches/ //Other Episodes You May Enjoy// 089: 7 Deadly Sins, Lust: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/089-7-deadly-sins-lust/ 081: 7 Deadly Sins, Pride: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/081-the-seven-deadly-sins-pride/ 070: Do Churches Need Pastors?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/070-do-churches-need-pastors/ 057: Un-Christians Celebrities: Do their materials still matter?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/057-unchristian-ed-celebrities-do-their-materials-still-matter/ //Helpful Links// Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Do our works follow us after death? Growing up in church, you may have heard that the only things that lasts for forever are God and the souls of men, but what about our works that were done here on this earth? If our works don’t matter, than why should we love our neighbor or look after widows and orphans in their distress? What do we do with the passages in the Bible that say that each person is to be judged according to his or her works (Romans 2:6)? Do works matter or do they not? In this episode, Marc and Fuller set out to answer these questions and other revolving around our works here in this life and what they mean in the life to come. // Links Mentioned in This Episode // Halloween Episode 14: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/014-the-halloween-episode/ We Will.... statement from White Stone Church: https://whitestonechurch.org/about/we-will // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 001: Does my past effect my future: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/001-does-my-past-effect-my-future/ 022: Finding God’s Will for My Life: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/022-finding-gods-will-for-your-life/ 024: Christians & Doubt: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/024-christians-doubt/ 032: Getting saved only to escape hell: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/032-getting-saved-only-to-escape-hell/ 038: Can one love without God: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/038-can-one-love-without-god/ // Helpful Links // Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
Is baptism essential? Most Christians would emphatically say “YES!” but we’ve noticed that to what extent is baptism essential is not always agreed upon. For example, is baptism essential for salvation? For growing in one’s faith? For washing away original guilt? For entrance into heaven? For acceptance into a faith community?
In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller start in the Old Testament and work their way through the New Testament in looking for the true meaning of baptism because if we find the purpose of baptism, maybe we can find out why it’s been so important throughout church history and why it’s such a big deal in today‘s church.

Is the gift of tongues still for today? What about healings? Prophecy? Does the Holy Spirit still bless Christians with every spiritual gift mentioned in the Bible, or are certain gifts no longer given? Questions around the gifts of the Spirit have been asked by many Christians over the centuries and many answers have been given, yet, a general consensus has never been reached as exactly how spiritual gifts operate in today’s church. In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller break down the general views on how the gifts of the spirit operate today, while giving their own opinions on this topic, all through the lens of Scripture. //Links used in this episode// https://www.christianpost.com/amp/do-spiritual-gifts-still-exist.html //Other episode you may enjoy// 038: Can One Love Without God? https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/038-can-one-love-without-god/ 032: Getting Saved to Only Escape Hell? https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/032-getting-saved-only-to-escape-hell/ 022: Finding God’s Will for your Life: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/022-finding-gods-will-for-your-life/ 012: Christians and Game of Thrones: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/012-christians-and-game-of-thrones/ 007: The Untamable Tongue: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/007-the-untamable-tongue/

In the last handful of years, conversations around transgenderism have grown to common place to the point where the church now has to ask a question, "How should we think and respond to this movement?" In answering this question and others around the LGBTQ+ community, the church is starting to draw lines in the sand and separating from one another. In doing such, many individual Christians are beginning to also ask questions about transgenderism. In this episode RTC, Marc and Fuller step into this question with looking to the Bible for answers because if we believe that God created us, we need to see just how he created each person. //Other Episodes That You May Enjoy// 038: Can One Love Without God?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/038-can-one-love-without-god/ 029: Can we have both faith & science?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/029-can-we-have%E2%80%A9-both-faith-%E2%80%A9science/ 021: Should we have Unbelievers in Mind when designing the Sunday Morning Worship Service?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/021-should-we-have-unbelievers-in-mind-when-designing-the-sunday-morning-worship-service/ 019: When the Church Hurts You: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/019-when-the-church-hurts-you/ 011: Parenting in the Digital Age with Justin Herman: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/011-parenting-in-the-digital-age-with-justin-herman/ 010: Gay & Christian Conversation: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/010-gay-christian-conversation/ //Helpful Links// Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
At some point in your life, you've probably heard the statement that "the nation is going down the tube because we kicked God out of the public schools," or something similar. Is this really the case though? Did the government kick God out, and are we really in trouble because the Bible and prayer have been taken out of the public school? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss this topic and ask questions such as, "Should Christians view the government taking Christianity out of the public school "persecution" or wrong?" "Should Christians fight to keep Muslim beliefs out of the Christian school?" and "Should teachers and coaches be allowed to teach their beliefs and convictions?" We trust that this conversation gets you thinking and wondering how we can focus on keeping God in the lives of everyday people. //Other Episodes That You May Enjoy// 064: Can Christians Be Political?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/064-can-christians-be-political/ 043: If You Could Ask God One Question: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/043-if-you-could-ask-god-one-question/ 015: Conversation with Paul Lindgreen: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/015-conversation-with-paul-lindgreen/ 013: Youth Sports vs The Church: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/013-youth-sports-vs-the-church/ 008: Teens & College Students, Part 1: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/008-teens-college-students-part-1/ //Helpful Links// Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
All around the world, Christians (and even non religious people) know and understand Mary to be a special person in Christian history. Some people believe that she has a special, holy place beside Jesus and that she is one of the key centerpieces of the Christian faith; while other people believe that even though she did give birth to Jesus, there's nothing special about her. So, what are we supposed to do with the Virgin Mary? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller look at "Mary-ology" to better understand the Catholic viewpoint of Mary, and then they discuss how we should view Mary's role in the life of the believer. Are the Catholics correct with their views or should we follow the Protestant tradition? This episode is designed to help you make that decision on your own. //Other Episodes That You May Enjoy// 086: The Catechism of Communion: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/086-the-catechism-of-communion/ 076: The Rapture of the Church: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/076-the-rapture-of-the-church/ 068: Christians & Alcohol: is it a sin?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/068-christians-alcohol-is-it-a-sin/ 064: Can Christians Be Political?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/064-can-christians-be-political/ 054: What to do about Bible Translations: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/054-what-to-do-about-bible-translations/ 038: Can One Love Without God?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/038-can-one-love-without-god/ Bonus: The Beauty of Good Friday: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/bonus-the-beauty-of-good-friday/ //Links From the Show// https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/bless-the-mother-of-jesus-but-mainly-be-the-mother-of-jesus https://catholicexchange.com/understanding-four-marian-doctrines //Helpful Links// Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com
We're back with another episode from our series on the 7 Deadly sins, and this week, we're covering lust. In this episode, Marc and Fuller talk about the history of the 7 Deadly Sins before jumping into this episodes focus. Lust is a topic that, although many people know what it is, many believe don't believe that lust truly has the power to do damage to the life of a believer. Unchecked, lust has the power to destroy one's life, family, and testimony. Do we have your attention now? Good.

Cancel Culture is a recently developed term, but in the last few years, has transformed the way our society both views and responds to companies and celebrities that speaking something that is either objectionable or considered offensive. Now, as Christians we agree that people need to be held accountable for their actions and that we want to see justice administered; however, there seems to be a big disagreement on what should be considered "cancelable" and how we should respond to people who have "made a mistake" at some point in their past. In this weeks episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about this recent phenomenon of Cancel Culture. They break down what is both good about it, as well as some of the shortfalls that happen because people are quick to cancel anyone and everyone. //Other Episodes That You May Enjoy// 084: Forgiveness: Why is it so hard?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/084-forgiveness-why-is-it-so-hard/ 069: I Know God Loves Me, but Does God Like Me?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/069-i-know-god-loves-me-but-does-god-like-me/ 064: Can Christians Be Political?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/064-can-christians-be-political/ 063: What is Undeserved Grace?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/063-what-is-undeserved-grace/ 057: UnChristian-ed Celebrities: Do Their Materials Still Matter?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/057-unchristian-ed-celebrities-do-their-materials-still-matter/ //Helpful Links// "God's Not Done" by Brandon Saucier & South Side Worship: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/southsidebaptistchurchworship/gods-not-done Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com //Music used on RTC// Opening Song: “Joy” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/3VcYVaixPlAS1KDVgYo1Dy?si=TqSXguuVQNudJrkcRDDjIA Closing Song: “Adjust” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/16VMY0XxHDo0bLpp6dQpuc?si=a1khJqYTTtWyzeQEbtYGXg
Churches and Christians have taken many hits over the last few years. From scandals, accusations of misusing church resources, and so many other church failures to having a culture that seems to be doing its best to silence Christians in the public space, it seems that the church is starting to lose its ability to impact the culture around them. We know that this shouldn't be the case, but in a world that seems so "anti God," how are we supposed to bring the Good News of Jesus to them? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller had the opportunity to sit down with Pastor Matt Nichols of Soul Harvest Church in Cloverdale, IN to talk about how both he and his church are reaching people both in their community and beyond. In this episode, Pastor Matt shares both personal stories and ministry stories of people's lives begin transformed because of Jesus, but he also breaks down how every day Christians can have the exact same impact in their local community. //Other Episodes That You May Enjoy// 085: Focus: Why am I a Christian?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/085-focus-why-am-i-a-christian/ 074: How to Raise Christian Kids with Ryan Coatney of Cross Formed Kids: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/074-how-to-raise-christian-kids-with-ryan-coatney-of-cross-formed-kids/ 053: A Christian’s Response to Worldly Authority: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/053-a-christians-response%E2%80%A9to-worldly-authority/ 052: Coffee Mug Christianity: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/052-coffee-mug-christianity/ 032: Getting Saved Only to Escape Hell?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/032-getting-saved-only-to-escape-hell/ //Helpful Links// Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com //Music used on RTC// Opening Song: “Joy” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/3VcYVaixPlAS1KDVgYo1Dy?si=TqSXguuVQNudJrkcRDDjIA Closing Song: “Adjust” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/16VMY0XxHDo0bLpp6dQpuc?si=a1khJqYTTtWyzeQEbtYGXg
Communion, The Lord's Supper, Holy Communion, the Eucharist, or whatever your Christian tradition calls this ordinance, communion has been the center-piece of Christian practice since the founding of the early church. No matter how long you've been a part of a Christian community, every Christian knows that this ordinance comprises of two parts: the wine/grape juice & bread/cracker, but not every Christian knows the history and different views on how communion is supposed to be viewed in the life of the church. In this episode, Marc and Fuller break down the historical views of communion, explain its importance throughout church history, and discuss how modern Christians should view and understand the practice of communion, both in the life of the Christian and in the life of the church. //Other Episodes That You May Enjoy// 002: Is Disney Causing Our Kids to Walk Away from Christianity?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/002-is-disney-causing-our-kids-to-walk-away-from-christianity/ 019: When the Church Hurts You: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/019-when-the-church-hurts-you/ 020: Who is the Sunday morning church service for, believers or unbelievers?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/020-who-is-the-sunday-morning-church-service-for-believers-or-unbelievers/ 025: Cultural & Biblical Christianity: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/025-cultural-biblical-christianity/ 036: What’s Up With All of These Different Denominations?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/036-whats-up-with-all-of-these-different-denominations/ 045: Is Tithing Biblical?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/045-is-tithing-biblical/ //Helpful Links// Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com //Music used on RTC// Opening Song: “Joy” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/3VcYVaixPlAS1KDVgYo1Dy?si=TqSXguuVQNudJrkcRDDjIA Closing Song: “Adjust” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/16VMY0XxHDo0bLpp6dQpuc?si=a1khJqYTTtWyzeQEbtYGXg
If you were having a conversation with someone, and they point-blank asked you, "Why are you a Christian?" would you be able to answer them? Would you be able to answer people's counter arguments to your beliefs? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller have an open conversation about why they are Christians, why they follow Jesus. They explore both personal and intellectual reasons for the faith that they have, and in the process, hopefully help you establish reasons for why you are a Christian.

Forgiveness. Over the centuries, Christians have been marked by this one simple word. All throughout Scripture, we read that Christians are supposed to forgive each other as God has forgiven us, to forgive our enemies, to forgive those who hurt us. This is a concept that we've been taught since childhood, but when it's time to forgive, it's one of the hardest things for us to do.
In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller ask "why is it so hard to forgive?" In this conversation, they discuss how we should respond when we've been hurt, what it means to actually forgive, and how we can help others who have been hurt by someone else. They even discuss the popular phrase "forgive and forget" and if this phrase holds water.

In recent years, people have started saying that sin is a made up concept that is designed to keep religious people in line. If you have grown up in a religious home or in the church, you know that sin is a concept that is often preached from the pulpit as an offense towards God. However, it seems that many Christians don't have a clue what sin is, let alone feel the guilt caused by sin. Every wondered, "why?" In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about two different sides of the same coin: why we often make excuses for sin and why we keep sinning even after deciding to follow Jesus. In this episode, they discuss two religious words, one called "justification" and the other called "sanctification," and how once we understand how God works in the lives of every day people, it should cause us to love and pursue God in every area of our lives. //Other Episodes That You May Enjoy// 075: Becoming a Peacemaker: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/075-becoming-a-peacemaker/ 063: What is Undeserved Grace?: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/063-what-is-undeserved-grace/ 061: Let’s Talk About Sin: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/061-lets-talk-about-sin/ 027: Speaking the Truth in Love: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/027-speaking-the-truth-in-love/ 025: Cultural & Biblical Christianity: https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/025-cultural-biblical-christianity/ //Helpful Links// Sanctification and Justification Article: https://www.ligonier.org/blog/what-are-justification-and-sanctification Definition of Sanctificaiton: https://biblehub.com/library/byers/sanctification/chapter_i_what_is_sanctification.htm Free Online Christian Education: https://www.biblicaltraining.org Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Merch Store: https://real-talk-christian-podcast.creator-spring.com/ RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com //Music used on RTC// Opening Song: “Joy” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/3VcYVaixPlAS1KDVgYo1Dy?si=TqSXguuVQNudJrkcRDDjIA Closing Song: “Adjust” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/16VMY0XxHDo0bLpp6dQpuc?si=a1khJqYTTtWyzeQEbtYGXg
When everything is out of control, how do we hang on to what's true and right? When loved ones get sick, when family members pass away, when we get the news that we have cancer, how do we have hope in a good God? Is there a way to keep our focus on Him or does this just prove that something is either wrong with us or with Him?
When hard times comes there are only three responses that we can have: chaos, karma, or a higher being. In this episode, we talk about the three different views and how we, as Christians, can find hope in the middle of hard times and hard news.

Pride. When you say this word, there are many possible definitions that one can give . . . some good and some bad. When it comes to the Bible, though, there is only one definition for pride, and it's not a good one. In fact, many believe that pride is what lead to Satan's fall and the destruction of mankind as a whole. So, what is pride?
In this episode, Marc and Fuller flip through the pages of Scripture to land on a definition of pride, figure out why God hates pride so much, and why pride will ultimately destroy our lives if we let it.
Curious about the fun fact this week? All you need to know is that BBC pulled off one of the greatest pranks of all time.

The worlds of witchcraft and wizardry have taken over our society by storm. Wether it's full fledged demonic possession in movies or the use of crystals to ward off the spirits in the real world, "witches" and "magic" are becoming normal in our culture. Not sure of what to do with all of this, many Christians completely blacklist anything that mentions the word "magic," while others see no problem at all because it seems like magic is just another topic in fantasy and children stories. Battle lines have been drawn in the sand over the recent years, and many Christians aren't exactly sure how to respond to magic. With there being so many different viewpoints with this topic, many are left wondering how should Christians respond this all of this.
In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about all things magic. From Harry Potter to Lord of the Rings, nothing is off limits in this conversation. With using both the Bible and their personal experiences, they talk about this topic and various elements within the magical world. The result? A real conversation that took many turns along the way.

Today's church is often marked by programs, services, worship experiences, outreach events, and custom-tailored events to serve the whole family and surrounding community. Both small church and large churches are doing all they can to do something new and fresh to reach people for Jesus, but is this what the church should be focused on?
In this week of RTC, Marc and Fuller look at ways the church has tried to reinvent the "wheel" of doing church in four key areas and ask the question if it's good that the church has put their focus on these things. Some are great and some . . . not so much. Take a listen to look at these four ways with us and ask yourself the question of "how should church do church?"

If Christian aren't supposed to be a part of the this world, should Christians even care about what goes on in the world? If we do care about though, just how much is too much caring?
In this week's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller start a two part series called "FOCUS," and in doing such, call the church to get their focus back on the right things, including our view of the world and our relation to it. In this episode, they talk about what the world is, God's relation to the world, and how much we should be involved in the world's affairs.

In the Christian world, there is a long standing debate of who initiates one's salvation – God or man. Since the days of John Calvin and Jacobus Arminius (and even back to the time of St. Augustine), the question of "Does God choose those who follow Him, or does man have the ability to choose to follow God on his or her own accord?" This view is a big difference between not only those in the Protestant Church, but this belief is also a big divide between the Catholic Church and Protestant denominations. In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller look at the history of the Calvanist and Arminianist beliefs, what the Bible has to say about this conversation, and why your view on God's salvation can dictate how you view God and the world. //Other Episodes You May Enjoy// 069, I Know God Loves Me, but Does God Like Me?: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/069-i-know-god-loves-me-but-does-god-like-me/ 063, What is Undeserved Grace?: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/063-what-is-undeserved-grace/ 043, If You Could Ask God One Question: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/043-if-you-could-ask-god-one-question/ 038, Can One Love Without God?: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/038-can-one-love-without-god/ 025, Cultural & Biblical Christianity: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/025-cultural-biblical-christianity/ 021, Should we have Unbelievers in Mind when designing the Sunday Morning Worship Service?: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/021-should-we-have-unbelievers-in-mind-when-designing-the-sunday-morning-worship-service/ //Helpful Links// Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast //Music used on RTC// Opening Song: “Joy” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/3VcYVaixPlAS1KDVgYo1Dy?si=TqSXguuVQNudJrkcRDDjIA Closing Song: “Adjust” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/16VMY0XxHDo0bLpp6dQpuc?si=a1khJqYTTtWyzeQEbtYGXg
"When Jesus comes back, will you go with him or will be left behind?" This is a phrase that if you've been in church for a while, you may have heard a pastor a church person say. But, is this the correct question to ask regarding the rapture? In a Christian world that is obsessed with the rapture and end times, do you know what to believe? Better yet, do you know what the Bible says? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about the rapture of the church. In this conversation, they dig through the Bible and look at church history to see how we, as Christians, should view the rapture of the church and how we as Christians should approach this subject. //Other episodes you may enjoy// 069: I Know God Loves Me, but Does God Like Me?: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/069-i-know-god-loves-me-but-does-god-like-me/ 058: Can Christians Wrestle with Doubt?: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/058-can-christians-wrestle-with-doubt/ 052: Coffee Mug Christianity: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/052-coffee-mug-christianity/ 049: New Heaven, New Earth, New Jerusalem, and Why it even matters: http://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/049-new-heaven-new-earth-new-jerusalem-and-why-it-even-matters/ //Helpful Links// Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast //Music used on RTC// Opening Song: “Joy” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/3VcYVaixPlAS1KDVgYo1Dy?si=TqSXguuVQNudJrkcRDDjIA Closing Song: “Adjust” by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/16VMY0XxHDo0bLpp6dQpuc?si=a1khJqYTTtWyzeQEbtYGXg
In the sermon on the mount, Jesus said, "blessed are the peacemakers for they will be called children of God." These words have been repeated throughout the centuries in many different contexts, but the truth still stands—peacemakers will be blessed by God. Have you ever wondered that it means to actually be a peacemaker, though?
In this week's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about what it means to be a peacemaker, and how being a peacemaker is one of the Christians main calling. To help you think through the topic, they go through the Scriptures to bring up other passages of Scripture that show Christians how to be peacemakers and provide seven descriptions of a true peacemaker.

In an ever-changing world, how do we raise our kids to love Jesus and pursue him? This is a question that has been asked to us here at RTC a handful of times, and we knew that we needed to bring in the big guns for this conversation!
In this week's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller sit down with Ryan Coatney of Cross Formed Kids. Cross Formed Kids is a biblically-based catechism method of learning and has grown in popularity with Christian parents all over America. In this episode, we ask Ryan many questions, including these: Why are so many kids and teens walking away from Christianity? What are ways that we can talk with our kids about Christianity in a way that they love Jesus and not just do the Christian thing? How do we have conversations around salvation and baptism at such a young age? Do you think there should be a certain age for salvation and baptism? Is teaching kids to follow Jesus a form of child abuse?
If you are a parent or hope to one day be a parent, you'll enjoy this conversation. If you have any questions regarding Cross Formed Kids, you can find a link to their website in EVERY single show note that we've produced for RTC. We believe in this style of educating your children, and we believe that you'll love this conversation.

Christians are often accused of only caring about babies when they are in the womb but not caring about both mothers and babies after babies are born, especially during political seasons when being Pro-Life becomes a talking point in the political sphere. But here's a question: is this actually true? Marc and Fuller decided to sit down with Andrew Wood to talk about this claim.
Andrew Wood is the executive director of Knoxville Hope Resource Center (@knoxvillehope). Hope Resource Center comes alongside expecting parents who don't know where else to turn when they find out they are pregnant by providing care for mothers and babies both before the baby's birth and long after the birth. Hope walks with both men and women to help them establish a life as a parent, and they do all of this because they want to show God's love to those who need it.
If you've ever heard the statement that Christians only care about babies in the womb or wondered if there's something that Christians can do to help scared, pregnant mothers, you'll definitely want to listen in on this conversation.

It's time to leave 2020 and move onto 2021!
With a new year comes new goals, dreams, and expectations. Most people, including Christians, set "new year resolutions" to help them have the best year ever. Sadly, most of the resolutions fail within the first couple weeks. Rather than make resolutions, we think you should make goals! Why? Goals are things that you can attain for, rather than resolutions that are decisions to do or not do.
In this episode, Marc and Fuller talk about three goals that every Christian should have as they walk into 2021.

The role of the pastor has changed throughout the centuries – from spiritual guide to ruler of countries. Every church has a pastor (some have multiple), but the role of the pastor is rarely defined. Let alone defined, many don't ask the question, "is the role of the pastor even required if every Christians followed the Bible?"
In this episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc and Fuller talk about the roles that the pastorate has evolved into in the 21st century, if those roles are Biblical, and if pastors are even needed in the church.

We have heard from some Christians that they know God loves them, but based on their actions and thoughts, they feel like God doesn’t like them. . . like He’s unhappy with them. Like a parent who says to their child, “I love you, but I just don’t like you at the moment.” Does God ever get to the point where he says, “I love you, but I just don’t like you at the moment." In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc and Fuller discuss this line of thinking and try to get to the source of the fear, including topics such as what the Bible says about God's love grace, why we feel like we aren't close to God, and can we lose certain blessings if we don't follow God the ways that we should. No stone gets unturned in the pursuit to answer this question.

The CDC says, “Excessive alcohol use is responsible for more than 95,000 deaths in the United States each year, or 261 deaths per day. These deaths shorten the lives of those who die by an average of almost 29 years, for a total of 2.8 million years of potential life lost. It is a leading cause of preventable death in the United States, and cost the nation $249 billion in 2010." If this is true, why do so many Christians believe that it is not only acceptable but also enjoyable to drink alcohol? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller open up the Bible to answer the questions like "Is drinking alcohol is sin?" "Is it wise to drink alcohol?" and "How should we handle ourselves if we think it's a sin but others think it's okay?"

Have you ever stopped and wondered, "What is my purpose in being a Christian?" Maybe you've thought about that question, and hey, maybe you haven't. At the end of the day, though, we have to have a purpose on this earth, besides just living and dying. Right?
In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about evangelism and telling people about Jesus. We go into the heart behind telling people about Jesus, some easy ways to share your faith, and even discuss if evangelism is the Christian's sole purpose here on this earth.

When someone says the word “worship,” Christians often think of music, a band, a song set, and maybe even lights and haze. But is this the way it’s supposed to be, or is worship more than a beat?
In today’s episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller take a deep dive into Scripture to see just what worship is. Best part? You don’t even need a beat to worship Jesus every day. So what is worship? This week’s episode answers just that question.

Everyone knows that you never bring up two topics at the family dinner table: religion and politics. Thankfully, we aren't most people.
On this episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc and Fuller talk about politics and specifically answer the question, "Can Christians be political?" There are so many Christians that combine their faith with a political platform, and we set out to see if that's a Christian idea or a worldly idea that has crept into the faith. We look at governments in the Old Testament and New Testament, if Christians should vote, can Christians serve as political figures, and how Christians should handle political conversations in every day life.

IT’S TIME FOR A BONUS EPISODE!
Just like last year, we’re bringing you a special Halloween episode. Last year, we talked about history of the holiday and how Christians should handle celebrating. This year? Let’s talk about aliens, extraterrestrial activity, and if Christians should just go ahead and storm Area 51. With all this so called, "alien activity" happening in our world, should Christians believe that aliens are real, and if aliens are real, what does this mean for our faith?
Get your candy ready. It’s going to be a fun ride!

Grace. Grace is a word that is often used in Christian circles, but outside of salvation, many don’t understand how grace plays a role in our everyday lives. In this week’s episode, Marc and Fuller discuss the topic of grace, define the term, and then discuss how to both receive grace and display grace in both times of peace and times of civil unrest.

Different is good...usually. So, let's try something different! In today's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller do something different where we asked Janeal, Chris' wife, to put a topic in a sealed envelope for us to answer on the spot, no prep required. This topic is one that you hear everywhere, and if you're breathing, you probably have said this yourself. Let's go!

Sin. If you’ve grown up in church, you’ve heard it used quite a bit. If you’re new to the faith, you know it’s bad…but that’s about it. Have you ever asked, “what is sin?” or “how do I know if I did sin?” In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss these questions and more, including why we struggle with sin, how to deal with guilt and shame that comes from sin, should we ever call out other people’s sins, and even the popular phrase, “I love Jesus, but I…” Helpful links: Choose your listening platform: http://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com RTC Website: https://www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com RTC Store: https://teespring.com/stores/real-talk-christian-podcast?page=1 Music used on RTC: Opening Song: "Joy" by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/3VcYVaixPlAS1KDVgYo1Dy?si=TqSXguuVQNudJrkcRDDjIA Closing Song: "Adjust" by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/16VMY0XxHDo0bLpp6dQpuc?si=a1khJqYTTtWyzeQEbtYGXg
In the Christian world, believers know and understand the Bible to be God’s Word. Many pastors, theologians, and philosophers have dedicated their entire lives to learning and discovering everything they can about the Bible, yet, they say that there is always more to learn and discover. You may be like many others and think that if they can’t fully understand the Bible, how can you? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about the various ways to study the Bible and even give tips and resources to help you better study the Bible. Let’s be honest, the best way to study the Bible is to sit down and read it, but if you want to dive in deeper, this is the episode for you.

The Purity Culture started as a movement to teach teens and young adults the purpose of sex, dating, and relationships. Although it has great intentions, the movement ended up hurting many who followed the list of do's and don’ts.
A few years ago, Joshua Harris, author of “I Kissed Dating Goodbye,” traveled around the nation, recording people’s testimonies of those who were hurt by this movement. Soon after his travels, he felt the need to rescinding his book and condemn the movement, but does all of this make the Purity Culture movement bad?
In this week's episode, Marc and Fuller discuss the Purity Culture – what it is, what it meant to accomplish, and what it means to live in movement. The Bible talks about sex and purity, but what in the purity culture is biblical and what is someone’s opinions? One way to find out!

Studies show that over half of all believers wrestle with doubt, specifically regarding if Christianity is the one true religion and if God exists. If those studies are correct, that probably means that if you're reading this, you, at one point or another, have had doubts about your faith. If this is you, you may have wondered, "is this actually okay? Am I losing my faith?"
In this weeks episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss doubt — what we can do when doubts surface, what most people do when doubt arises, where to get answers to your doubt, and most importantly, if doubt is a sign of unbelief.

Over the years, Christians have watched many famous Christian personalities and celebrities walk away from the faith that they once preached (e.g., Marty Sampson of Hillsong United, Jon Steingard of Hawk Nelson, Pastor Joshua Harris, author of I Kissed Dating Goodbye, and performing artist Ray Boltz). As many of these celebrities walk away, those still in the faith are stuck with their books, writings, songs, and resources and wonder "what do we do with all of this now?"
In this conversation of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss how we handle Christian celebrities who walk away from the faith (or are in the process of deconstructing their faith) and what we should do with the content that they've produced.

There's no question that tattoos are taboo in Christian circles – the more "conservative" a church, the fewer members with tattoos (unless those tattoos were from their past life of course), but it seems that more and more pastors, teachers, and Christians have several tattoos. As Christians, we aren't called to live up to the standard of other people, but we are called to live up to God's standards. What is God's standards on this topic?
On today's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss look at the Bible to see what it has to say about tattoos, but more than that, they discuss if it's a wise move to get tattoos, no matter your standard or belief.

"If the world loves you, that must mean you don't love Jesus enough!" Maybe you've heard this phrase before, maybe not, but sadly, we have heard this plenty of times by well intentioned Christians. But is this a true statement? We know Jesus says that if the world hated him that the world would also hate us, but what happens if we find ourself in a place where the world doesn't seem to hate us?
In this weeks episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss just that question and discuss what the litmus test is for those who follow Jesus.

There are SO many different Bible translations out there. One question that many new Christians (and seasoned Christians) ask is, "What translation of Bible should I use, and why should I use it?"
In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller talk about the various Bible translations that are out there and even discuss their favorite translations. This conversation doesn't go deep into the KJV translation debate, but rather, since we believe that God's Word isn't preserved in one Bible translation, which ones of the many should we use?

In today's culture, you can't escape social media posts about civil unrest and disobedience, and the posts don't change once you enter into Christian landscape: Church in-Person vs. Online Services, Masks vs. No Masks, Back the Blue vs. Defund the Police, and the list goes on and on.
In today's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller look at what the Bible has to say about authority and specifically ask the question: "Is there ever a good time to disobey our governing authorities?"

Christianity has developed some incredibly catchy phrases over the years! In fact, so many of these Christian phrases have become so popular that people purchase hand painted signs, journals, stickers, and coffee mugs with these phrases on them. Some even go as far as getting these phrases tattooed on their body! American Christians love these Christian phrases, but here's a question maybe you've never considered: Are these phrases even Biblical?
In today's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller look at some of the most popular "Coffee Mug Christianity" phrases in today's Christian circles and put them to the test to see if the Bible affirms counters these popular Coffee Mug Christianity phrases.

In the Bible, we read that one day, Jesus will return and make all things new – a new heaven, a new earth, and there's even talk of a New Jerusalem, but here's a valid question: "What is all this?" and one like it, "Why does this even matter in my day-to-day life?"
On today's episode, Marc and Fuller sit own to discuss their views on God's new creation and why it should bring encouragement and excitement to the Christian's life.

Every church has a "tithes and offering" portion in their worship service, and it seems like pastors are always talking about "giving your money back to God in the form of a tithe" . . . but have you ever stopped and asked the question, "Is tithing even Biblical?"
In today's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss this topic from both a Biblical and practical viewpoint, and at the end of this episode, they each share their opinions on if a Christian should or should not tithe. They even get into the question of "Should a Christian give to their local church?"

"Finding you identity in Christ" is a Christianese phrase that is tossed around all the time. What does it actually mean and is this even something that we should strive for in our lives?
In today's episode of RTC, Marc & Fuller discuss this big idea and try to bring it down to everyday life. We look at the attributes of Jesus himself (because as Christians, Little Christs, we are supposed to emulate him) and looking at what it means for you once you become a follower of Jesus.

Questioning God. Is this something we are able to do? And if so, what should we be questioning God about? Also, is there a difference between asking God questions and question God? Growing up, many Christians were taught that when you question God, you are showing your lack of faith, but is this thought process correct?
On today's episode, Marc & Fuller answer questions like these and then give some tips on how to remain faithful to God in the times of silence. Towards the end of the discussion, they both get real with each other and answer the question for themselves: If you could ask God one question, what would you ask him?

Is there such a thing as "finding your soul mate" or "finding the one." So many people believe that either God or the universe (if you're not Christian) has created one specific person for you to spend the rest of your life with; however, is that actually Biblical?
In this episode of RTC, Marc & Fuller discuss their views on "soul mates" and "the one" while also looking at what someone should even be looking for in a spouse. Arguably, figuring out who you're going to spend the rest of your life with is a very important decision, so we'd like to help you along in the process.

Why does gambling get such a bad rap in Christian circles? Isn't it the same as going to a basketball game or a concert? They are all entertainment after all, right?
Gambling has been called a "sin" by many Christians, but what does the Bible actually say on this topic? Does it even say anything at all? Today, Marc and Fuller sin down to answer this question as well as give some wisdom into this topic.

In South America, fútbol (soccer) is king. Everyone plays the game, loves the game, and idolizes the soccer local heroes. Some people started to wonder, "if people love soccer so much, can we use this is a bridge to tell people about Jesus?" This is exactly what Joseph and Kimberly Frerichs asked themselves, and they decided to do something about it.
In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller sit down with Joseph Frerichs to talk about his journey. He is a third generation missionary to Peru, which means he grew up in the country and is a native. He has been playing soccer competitively in Peru since he was a kid, but left Peru and professional soccer to study ministry here in the states. Now, it's time to head back.
We talk with Joseph about what is was like as a missionary kid, what it takes to get back on the field, what kingdom successes he has seen since starting his mission work, and what it means for his family to uproot their American lives to head back to Peru. At the end of the interview, Kimberly joins us and shares her heart, too! We know you're going to love this conversation.
And if you loved this conversation, please consider support Joseph and Kimberly. They are in need to financial partners to support them as they serve God in Peru. The links are below.

Single and in her mid 20s, Beth Schneider decided to follow God's leading and open her home and heart to foster care. Little did she know that just a handful of years later, she would adopt five girls out of the foster care system!
In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller interview Beth Schneider of @schneiderladies to talk with Beth about her journey into foster care and ultimately becoming a single adoptive mom (which apparently was not the plan). We ask Beth why she got into fostering, what "highs" and "lows" has she experienced while being a single mom, and what word of encouragement would she give to someone wanting to step out into fostering. We know you're going to love this episode and love Beth, so make sure you follow her and the girl's story!

Most Christians know the verse, "We love because God first loved us" (1 John 4:19), but here's a Christian maybe you haven't thought about: If someone doesn't follow Jesus and isn't a Christian, can they love at all? In today's conversation, Marc and Fuller set out to answer this question while answering many other questions about love. In this conversation, they also touch on common grace given to all mankind, while asking if this enough for people to understand, know, and show love in it's purest form.

Marc and Fuller went live on Facebook via Zoom on Good Friday 2020 to talk about the beauty of Good Friday. In this episode, we talk about Jesus' entering into Jerusalem, why the crowd went from "Hosanna" to "crucify him" in less than a week, why the Romans wanted Jesus dead, what Jesus accomplished on the cross, and why that's import for us today.
As Protestants, we don't need to be afraid to have a theology of the cross, and we hope that this conversations help you develop your thinking and beliefs.

You may know not it, but contraceptives and family planning has been a moral debate in the church since the introduction of the birth control pill in the 50's & 60's. Since that day, most people just assume that in order to properly plan for a family, there is only one method, which has caused some people to ask, "is there a better way?"
FEMM (family education & medical management) is a process that teaches women (and men, too) how to family plan without the need of contraceptives. FEMM teaches woman how their body works and how God masterfully created them. Sara Nass, a FEMM educator, teaches us about the FEMM process as well as answer many practical and ethical questions that Marc and Fuller had going into this conversation.
Whether you are trying to start a family or plan on starting a family at some point in time, we know that you'll great benefit from today's conversation.

It doesn't take long to realize that there are literally hundreds of different churches inside of one city–Methodist, Baptist, Lutheran, Wesleyan, Christian, Brethren, Church of God, Church of Christ, Church of God in Christ, etc. But this isn't even the best part. The best part? There's different types of churches inside each denomination! Some have estimated that there are well over 200 different distinct Christian groups inside Protestantism.
On the episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss how we got these denominations, why it even matters, and ultimately, should it matter? There are some disagreements between the guys on this episode, which resulted in a very long, passionate conversation.

Friendships with unbelievers. How is that supposed to work? We hear that we are supposed to impact our world for Christ, and in order to impact the world, you need to be a part of the world. But on the flip side, many of us Christians were taught from an early age that if you are surrounded by bad influences, it can destroy your life. But then you read in the Bible that Jesus was a friend of sinners and scolded the religious people. Isn't there something in the Bible, though, that says, "Don't be unequally yoked?"
In this week's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss these thoughts and questions while trying to figure out the balance of "How can I be friends whose those of a different faith than me?"

The unforgivable/unpardonable sin. The sin that so many Christians are scared to commit. Why? Because if you commit this sin, God will never forgive you, resulting in eternal separation from God in hell. But, is this a fear that any Christian should have?
In this episode of RTC, Marc & Fuller discuss what the unforgivable sin. They look at the Biblical passages where we find this sin mentioned, who can commit, and ultimately, can a Christian commit this sin.

Since being deemed a public health concern in the United State on January 31, the Coronavirus (Covid-19) has sent people into a frenzy – store shelves are empty, schools are closing down for the semester, sports have paused their seasons, church are cancelling their gatherings, restaurants are closing their dining rooms, people are being laid off, and people are wondering when the entire economy will eventually crash. What are we as Christians supposed to do in times like these? In fact, is there anything we can do?
Marc and Fuller decided to make a bonus episode and discuss this Coronavirus together, and invite you to listen in on their thoughts about how a Christian should respond.

Personhood Theory. You may have never heard of it, but personhood theory simply asks the question, "What makes a person a person?" How one answers this questions directly impacts theirs view on human dignity, worth, and rights. Personhood theory also helps us understand our bodies and the creation of them! People's views on topics from abortion, euthanasia, sex slavery, population control, transgenderism, and homosexuality are all based on how you answer on specific question: What makes a person a person?
On this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss this idea of personhood theory and what it means for both Christians and nonChristians and how this conversation directly impacts our views on the sanctity of human life.

If you have decided to become a Christian to simply escape torment in hell, are you really saved? Is this enough to get you into heaven when you die? In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss these questions as well as so many other facets to salvation – predestination, age of innocents, asking Jesus into your heart, and so much more. If salvation is the key to eternity, we probably should get this correct.

A church is only as good as it's volunteering members, but does the church ask too much of it's volunteers? In the typical church, 20% of the members do 80% of the work. Why is this the case and is there something better that the church can do in order to not overwork or burn out it's members? Or, is this just a part of being a good church member?

Can a Christian have faith in God but also believe in science? So many Christian put science in one part of their brain and then put faith in a different corner of their brain because modern scientists and atheists say that because of science, we have need for faith. In today's conversation, Marc and Fuller talk about the different types of science, how it's perfectly plausible to have faith but also believe in science, and ultimately, science is not a direct-flight to becoming an atheist.

This week, Marc and Fuller had the privilege to sit down with recording artist John Tibbs and hear what it's like to be a self-made recording artist. We were able to talk with Tibbs about his personal trials and struggles, including a stutter that he had since he was a kid and back problems in the middle of touring season, and how all of this plays into his story of God's goodness. This conversation goes beyond the typical artist interview, so we know that you will enjoy it.

As a Christian, how much can we look like the world in how we dress, think, and talk but still be devoted to Jesus? America is quickly becoming a "post Christian" nation and in order to reach America with Jesus, some people are beginning to think differently. Plus, with the rise of Pastors dressing more like the culture, music matching the culture, and Christians wanted to be involved in cultural issues, where should Christians draw the line?
In this episode, Marc and Fuller discuss the idea of Cultural Christianity and Biblical Christianity. One host falls more into the "Christianity mirroring culture" and the other host is more "Christianity not like culture." So, what should Christian do and is there anything that we can do?

For many Christians, doubt cripples their walk with Jesus, but for some Christians, they seem to believe "without a shadow of a doubt" all day every day. So, what happens when we doubt? Doubt can vary from doubting you salvation because of your sin or doubting that God even exists. So, what happens when doubt sets in?
In this episode, Marc and Fuller discuss Christians & doubt. They talk about why is comes about, but more importantly, what we should do when that doubt arises. The conversation of Christians & Doubts takes off at the 15 minute mark.

New Year Resolutions. Every does them; basically no one keeps them. So, what's the point? Should we have New Year Resolutions?
In this episode, Fuller talks about how he doesn't do a New Year Resolution, but rather, he has his "Chris' Life Resolutions"—resolutions that he strives to keep every day that are not tangible but essential. Marc doesn't do resolutions, but rather, chooses one word to carry throughout the entire year. We hope that this episode will give you some new ideas to help make your 2020 the best year yet.

How do you find God's will for your life? Is it like a roadmap, a destination, something where if you miss it, you lose? Finding God's will can cause much anxiety, but does it have to be this way? In this week's episode, Marc gives a new idea on what it means to live inside of God's will and why we don't need to be so stressed about it, and Chris gives his view on God's will and how he strives to follow it. Let's see where we end up.

It's a bonus episode! What does that mean? It means that we're still dropping another episode this upcoming week, but now you have two conversations to join this week.
With Christmas season here, the question of "What should we do about Santa Clause with our family?" often comes up. Marc and Chris take an honest look at where Santa came from, what we should do about it, and how we, as Christians, should handle the idea of telling our kids to believe in an legendary figure.

Should we have unbelievers in mind when designing the Sunday morning worship, or since the church is for the believers, should unbelievers just be an afterthought? In this conversation, Marc and Chris clash in their ideas on their thoughts for honing in on those outside the church, and how the church can both edify the believers while also thinking about the unbelievers. This episode is a follow up conversation to episode 20.

Many churches follow the mottos of "we want to be a church that unsaved people love to attend" and "before you believe, you belong with us." Is this the correct mindset to have, and what is the ultimate purpose of the Sunday Morning worship service/experience? We look at what the church is, what the church isn't, and is it such a bad idea to create worship experiences that unsaved people enjoy? Marc and Chris have some different opinions on this topic, so we hope you enjoy the conversation.

In this episode of Real Talk Christian, Marc and Chris talk about a sensitive topic: what to do when the church hurts you – whether it's the church leadership or people who attend the same church as you. They open up about how the church has hurt them, and Marc even gives the "other side" of the equation of when the church hurts one of their pastors. We hope and pray that this conversation will resonate with you and help you handle those hard relationships that you may have.

In this episode of Real Talk Christian, Chris has a conversation with Paul Lindgreen. Paul is a musician (our podcast's intro music was written and produce by Paul) and one of Chris' best friends. Paul has been on both sides of the conversation when it comes to marital affairs – he had his own affair, came back together with his wife, and then she had an affair on him. Today's conversation is just part 1 of this conversation, but this episode deals primarily with his steps towards him having an affair. We hope that this will help you see the signs and learn some truths about making sure you fight for your own relationship when the time is right.

Are we supposed to have the mindset of "in the world but not of the world" or is there a better way to think about this topic?

On this episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc and Chris talk about the magical world of Disney and a Christian's response to Disney. In the world today, one cannot go far without interacting with Disney, but because Disney does not always line up with Christian values, some Christians believe that Disney is completely evil and should be considered as such. On the flip side, many Christians have no problem with Disney and let their children view any movie that Disney releases. How should Christians respond to Disney? Let's talk about it.
