The Breakdown: Truth Matters

How Not to Get ”Puffed Up,” Boundaries in Families, and the Gospel in Remote Places

On this week's episode the guys tackle more of your difficult questions! How do we not get "puffed up" with pride and arrogance as we learn more about God's Word? How do we handle ourselves and keep our witness when we interact with dramatic and chaotic family members? How to we navigate Godly boundaries? And, what happens to peoples in remote places who are never exposed to the Gospel? 

Pragmatic Repentance, Near Death Experiences, and the Occult

On this episode of The Breakdown the guys are back in the studio to answer some interesting questions! How can we differentiate between "leaning on" God spiritually for help in repenting from sin versus the "physical steps" taken under my own will? Are these concepts at odds? What about people who say they've seen glimpses of heaven after a Near Death Experience (NDE)? Is that legit? And what about New Age practices--astrology, healing crystals, etc.? Is there any place for that in the life of a Christian? 

From Mormonism, to Meth, to The Messiah - Maddie

This week on The Breakdown at CCOP we're back with another testimony. This time Maddie shares her story. Growing up LDS in Utah, she never truly knew her Savior. After her family broke apart, she found herself adrift--"New Age" spirituality, drug use, and homelessness characterized much of her adult life until God opened her eyes and brought her to faith in Christ in August of 2020. 

God‘s Purpose for Us, Trustworthiness of Scripture, and the Reality of Hell

On this week's episode we introduce our new host: Austin. You've heard him on the show before and you're about to hear him a lot more! This week we tackle more of your questions: What is God's purpose in our individual lives, and how do we know what that purpose is? How do we know the Bible can be trusted? And, a doozy: Does the Bible really say that people who don't believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ go to Hell? 

What is Truth? How do we wield it?

This week, recent podcast guest Austin hosts a discussion about the Truth. "What is Truth?" as Pontius Pilate asks in John 18:38 in response to Jesus' claim that he bears witness to the Truth. How do we handle the truth with ourselves and others without becoming overly critical? Lastly, what is a whitewashed tomb in the context with which Jesus speaks in Matthew 23?
