In this episode of "Faith & Practice," Dr. Pipa and Pastor Groff handle a diverse array of questions pertaining to children in corporate worship, sanctification, biblical interpretation, personal godliness, and Aslan.
Questions include:
- What is your opinion on "children's messages" in corporate worship?
- How do you pastorally distinguish between no progress in sanctification in a Christian's life, slow progress in a Christian's life, and the kind of progress we ought to expect to see in a Christian's life?
- What does 1 Peter 3:19–20 mean when it says Jesus “went and preached to the spirits in prison”?
- What's the symbolism involved in the removal of the foreskin in circumcision?
- Why did Joseph deceive and scare his brothers when he was a ruler in Egypt?
- Why did Jesus tell the disciples to buy swords in Luke 22:36-38
- Is Aslan in The Chronicles of Narnia a violation of the 2nd (or 3rd) Commandment?
- How, practically, can we be both content and ambitious? What should we think and do to be content with our current conditions, yet work to improve our conditions?
