Politics: Abortion- Pro-Choice vs. Pro-Life
Hello everyone! Christian and I (Jonathan) are continuing our politics series. On the last episode, "Politics: Where Do We Begin?", we spent some time laying the foundations for political discussions and thoughts. So, I would recommed listening to that podcast first, before listening to this one.
On this podcast, we are discussing the topic of abortion. This has obviously become a very heated topic, and it has been for a long time. There are typically two sides of the argument. There is the pro-life side, which defends the idea that abortion is wrong, since it is the ending of a life. People who belive this view, typically see life beginning at conception. Then the argument goes, that if the life begins at conception that an abortion at any stage of the pregnancy would be considered murder of a person. The other major view has typically be called pro-choice. Pro-choice people believe that since an abortion has to do with the body of a mother, then the mother of the fetus should be the sole decider whehter or not to contine the pregnancy. Typically, most pro-choice defenders believe that a baby does not become a person until it is viable outside of the mother's womb.
Now, there are obviously some specifics that differ, but these are the main viewpoints. In this podcast, Christian and I talk about the arguments from both sides, give some specific examples, explain the development of the fetus in the woman's body, and give our thoughts on both pro-choice and pro-life. Christians specifically need to know which side of this debate they should stand on. Is it better for a Christian to be pro-choice or to be pro-life. Can you even be a Christian and be dogmatic about one or the other? We also get into some of the new laws that are being voted on in November. No matter which side of the debate you stand on, we believe you will find this podcast beneficial as you hear the arguments from both sides, and as you learn more about
Have you felt like you cannot find anything that is consistent? Do you feel like you always slip and fall in life?
This sermon shows us that we need a "Firm Foundation" from Matthew 7:24-27! Listen to find out how to find a Firm Foundation!

The Perfect Christian (Sermon by Jonathan Jenkins)
Does the perfect Christian exist? Often times, we judge other Christians and say they aren't good Christians, or that person isn't really saved. We also will come across many people who call Christians and Christian leaders hypocrites because they fall short or struggle with sin. Other times, we say that certain Christians are great Christian people. Or we will say that person doesn't do anything wrong. It all begs the question: does the perfect Christian exist? Can Christians be good Christians, dedicated to the Lord if they still have struggles with sins? How good of a Christian does someone have to be to be a pastor, church leader, teacher, evangelist, etc. Well in this podcast, I (Jonathan) dive into a passage in Romans 7, where Paul talks about his struggle with sin. I believe in that passage, that Paul gives us characteristics of what a truly perfect Christian is like. Tune into this sermon as I share what scripture teaches about this issue!

Greetings everyone! In this podcast, Christian and I had the opportunity to interview a mentor that is dear to our hearts, Steve Edwards. He serves as the women's basketball head coach and the campus pastor at Brewton Parker College in Mt. Vernon, GA. BPC is where Christian and I both got our B.A. degrees in Christian Studies.

Throughout the conversation, we spent a lot of time just discussing ministry from all of our perspectives and sharing some important advice from experience and scripture about "Ministry Lifers" as Steve called it!

2024 "True Love Waits: Sex, Dating, Relationships and Love" Sermon by Jonathan Jenkins
Hello everyone! On this podcast, I (Jonathan Jenkins) am sharing a sermon I preached to my church. This sermon is a summary of a month's worth of teaching True Love Waits to the youth at my church. There is a lot that is covered and many questions that are answered regarding this issue. I start out by talking about what TRUE love is, what kind of relationships do we have, etc. Then I get into the topic of sex and how God through His word deals with that issue. Finally, I summarize with a response for the Gospel. This is a much needed message today to clear up many misunderstandings and abuses found within the sexual culture that we live in. This is one of those topics where we need to stand firm on the Word of God as Christians! What is sin and what does God allow? Well, we need to find the principles in the Bible that make this very clear! Find out what the Bible says about all of this in this week's episode of Grace Bond Ministries! If you feel convicted of sin or need someone to talk to about this, please email me at [email protected]. As always, please like, subscribe and share! God bless!
