Jon and Justin discuss a false doctrine that the church has battled throughout its history and call f...

We live in a time where we’re prone to throw mud, be condescending, self-righteous, and accusatory, and we often misrepresent those with whom we disagree. This behavior doesn’t seem to align with what Scripture teaches about being gentle, kind, patient, and avoiding arguments. So, today, Jon and ...

When we warn others about false teachers, they usually have the same defensive and flawed arguments. They will accuse you of being judgemental, sowing division, and warn you not to "touch God's anointed." In this episode we'll examine these flawed arguments.

In this practically-focused episode, the Kozars give some thoughts on how to think about all of the different denominations out there.

In this sermon Tom Pennington explains that Christians are able to recognize false teaching by understanding the Word of God and the ministry of the Holy Spirit.

The way is hard and the gate is narrow that leads to life. Christ tells us that few will find it. This makes it really important to know that the teachers we sit under are leading us along the right path. The danger of false teaching is an ever increasing reality in this present age. The first st...

Jeremiah was sent by God to pronounce judgment upon Judah and to offer a way of escape for those who would listen. But at every step, Jeremiah found himself at odds with the popular false prophets who promised peace and prosperity for Jerusalem. It's easy to see why they were popular. In the same...

A false Christ isn't simply one who claims to be the one and only Saviour of the world, but can also be one who comes claiming for themself a special anointing from God and a corresponding authority to speak and act on God's behalf. Christ means "anointed one" and the visible church is full of pe...

Sean walks us through scripture on this subject, and we talk about the healthy skepticism we should all have of our own h...

Sometimes social media posts lead to teachable moments. In this episode, we respond to the accusation that Christians who call out false teachers by name are being arrogant, judgmental, or unbiblical.

Pastor Chris Rosebrough teams up with Steve Kozar and Amy Spreeman to tackle dangerous doctrines that have harmed Christians for decades in Evangelicalism such as the "Dream Destiny" doctrine and the "Purpose Driven Life". These false teachings make Christianity all about you and leave needy soul...
