Inverted Orthodoxy 392- Christian Denomination, Worship songs, Raising faithful teens, and greed
Welcome to the Inverted Orthodoxy Podcast! We're Blake, Kyle, and Doug the pastors from Living Springs, here to take you on a weekly adventure through the twists and turns of faith. Got questions? We've got answers, and sometimes more questions! This week the pastors answered the following questions:
1. Last week you spoke about the 44003 denominations of Christianity, how many are from the line of Catholics?
2.What are your guys’s favourite worship song that we used to do or still do today? And why is it your favourite?
3.In addition to trying to live my life faithfully and praying and reading the Bible with my son, how can I better encourage his faith? He is still not even a teenager yet and claims he doesn't believe in God. I encourage his questions and don't force my faith on him but it still hurts my heart to hear him have such blatant disregard for God and faith in general. Any additional suggestions on how to better reveal Christ to him? I pray that his heart will be soft and open to God but I still wish there were more tangible things I could do.
4. In relation to Blake's sermon on greed in February and his references to tithing, it made me wonder - if someone is tithing the traditional 10% whether it should be on gross or net income? I would imagine most people would do it on net income, but wouldn't that mean that our "first fruits" are going to the government and not God? Or, does that not matter since that is not money we have any control over and "first fruits" would be more in relation to what we do with the funds we actually receive or control? Not looking to be dogmatic on it, just curious about what you guys would have to say about it.
