Join us on Calibrate Conversations as we address a pressing issue within Christianity, prompted by the recent resignation of Pastor Steve Lawson due to moral failure. This episode examines the pitfalls of consumeristic Christianity and the dangers of pastors spreading themselves too thin with numerous commitments. We explore the critical need for pastors to be deeply involved in their local congregations and held accountable within a biblical eldership structure. Emphasizing the importance of local church involvement, mutual accountability, and authentic discipleship, we argue for a shift away from valuing charismatic preachers to prioritizing shepherds who engage deeply with their church communities.
Listen in as we discuss how to respond when Christian leaders or members fall into sin, emphasizing the importance of demonstrating hope in Jesus. We explore the necessity of praying for God's grace in the lives of sinners and developing better responses that bring glory to God. By being vigilant in our personal lives and relationships, confessing sin early, and embracing God's standard for sexuality, we can foster a community that reflects Christ's love and hope. This episode aims to encourage you in your walk with the Lord and inspire a deeper commitment to authentic discipleship and mutual accountability within the church.
Join us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality!
