Would it bother you if you went into a church that had a \"gift shop?\" Okay, maybe not a gift shop, but a bookstore? When we look at scripture, is there anything that makes stores in churches a red flag? You can bet we\'re going to talk about Jesus flipping tables in the temple, but you might be surprised what that text actually shows us. We also look at the heart (or lack thereof?) behind selling goods in churches.

What is predestination, and why do people have such a hard time with it? In this episode, Mark opens with his observation that it\'s a hard topic to discuss with others. Mostly because the conversation usually descends into condescending talk between believers. To which Pastor Burt would say, \"you can\'t believe in it, AND be a jerk about it.\" What on Earth does that mean? Find out in this weeks episode.

Mark Surprised Josh and Burt with this episode. They had no idea what we were going to talk about, and they DEFINITELY didnt expect Mark to create a Christian trivia game show. The best part is, only about half of the questions have proper answers. So sit back, relax, and enjoy 30 minutes of Mark trolling two pastors.

The Bible was written by God, right? Or... Well... Humans wrote it, but God inspired them... That\'s a credible explanation, right? In this episode we talk about why Christians can TRUST that God\'s Word is truly God\'s word. We also discuss the historical accuracy of the Bible, compared to other ancient texts.

There are lots of things we confuse with the Christian faith. Naturally, since Christianity involves eternal life after you \"die,\" questions are raised about ghosts. Are ghosts found in the Bible? Can a Christian believe in ghosts? Are ghosts actually demons? Most importantly, why did Burt shave? The answers, found here!

What exactly is a church membership? Am I supposed to be a \"member\" of my church? Does it cost anything?... because I\'ve already got enough subscriptions I pay for. This week Mark Dickey and Pastor Josh discuss what it means to be a member of a church, and how some churches view membership differently.
