Hey guys, our first episode in awhile. Sorry we were away so long, but life happened. And we kind of talk about life in this episode. Where are our priorities and where should they be as a believer. When life gets hectic, what should we do.     

**We debated discussing this current issue due to how much of a hot topic it is, but our Savior didn't shy away from people and no matter their situation He showed them love. That is all we want to do.** In this issue we discuss North Carolina's HB 2 and give some perspective on why the law may not be a good thing or may not be necessary. We approach the topic with love and understanding and realizing that it is a very polarizing subject.  This is Shawn Stinson, the female to  male bodybuilder that we discuss:   The article mentioned in the episode can be read here: http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2015/july-august/understanding-transgender-gender-dysphoria.html  

In what may be our best episode yet, we have a candid discussion about pornography and how damaging it is to our culture. We discuss way to fight against it individually and culturally. 

This episode is basically just a discussion that we started and decided to press record while having it. We didn't come with any plan or notes, just a raw conversation about a topic that the church struggles talking about and its believers struggle living with. We hope that if you or someone you love deals with it, this episode may help you find love and grace.

In case you have been living under a rock, this is an election year, and boy is it in full swing. With that, we decided to sit down and talk about Christianity and politics. What are the responsibilities of a Christian in their countries political process? What issues should a believer be concerned about? And where should that concern be placed? We also break down a few political systems throughout history as a point of reference. And we close with specific topics that hot media items right now. With those, we give our personal opinions on those issues with the basis for those beliefs.   OH, and one Chris calls another Chris a political agnostic.    ***The essay referenced can be found at: http://www.independent.org/newsroom/article.asp?id=1566***

Hey guys, our 4th episode is up. In this episode, we talk about the 14th chapter of Paul's letter to the Romans and how it should impact our relationships with fellow believers. We also discuss Grace vs. Law and which is harder to live under. Also, we have our first difference of opinions on the show. It was bound to happen and on this episode it does. Nothing heated of course, but it did add some interesting dialog to the show.

***This is the second episode we recorded chronologically, but we decided to release it third. So the intro talks about it being the second episode and you didn't miss one." Sorry, it is late, but we made some audio improvements and are getting it to you. In this episode, the Chris's and Justin talk about Biblical inerrancy and infallibility and what it means so many years removed from the original manuscripts. We also discuss Paul and his epistles.

***You haven't missed anything. This is the third episode we recorded chronologically, but we decided to release it second.*** In this episode, the Chris's and Justin talk about prayer and fasting. There is a very strong passage in the Bible where Jesus says that certain things can only be accomplished through prayer and fasting. We talk about what means practically and how it should look. Matthew 17:14-21 14 When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt before him. 15 “Lord, have mercy on my son,” he said. “He has seizures and is suffering greatly. He often falls into the fire or into the water. 16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.” 17“You unbelieving and perverse generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.” 18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed at that moment. 19 Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?” 20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.

This is the beginning of JCC Podcast. In this episode, we talk a little about who we are and why we felt led to start recording our conversations. We hope to take a good look a church culture and discuss how we can impact it for the better.
