The good news of Jesus doesn't make any sense unless we first understand the depths of the bad news. We're all sinners who deserve separation from God for all eternity. That's some bad news right there. Sadly, many churches in America are afraid of giving the bad news. They want to be popular and preach feel-good messages that won't offend anyone. But a church that tries to please everyone ends up pleasing no one. Find a healthy church where the pastor isn't afraid to talk about sin and hell and why it is that we need the good news of Christ. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
The old phrase "Marriage takes hard work" is a gross understatement. The truth is there will be times when you want to kill each other! But when you find yourself in one of these low points in marriage and you're thinking about walking away, know this - we've all been there, and it will get better. Hey, we wouldn't have to take a vow before God that "until death do us part" if this marriage thing were supposed to be easy! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Listen to full episodeGoose critiques Pope Francis' belief that all religions lead to God, as expressed in his interfaith dialogues. He argues against this notion based on the New Testament's portrayal of Jesus, who claimed to be the exclusive way to the Father. Goose expresses disappointment in this stance, viewing it as heresy, and would love to ask Pope Francis about his views on this matter if given the opportunity. He emphasizes the importance of Jesus' exclusive truth claim in Acts 4:12 and encourages listeners to follow this narrow path. Goose challenges the concept of having a Pope in Catholicism based on Hebrews in the Bible, which states there is only one God and one mediator between humans and God, which is Jesus Christ.
