What’s Wrong with Church Hopping?

Questions in this Episode

  1. In Psalm 51, David pleads, “remove not your Spirit from me.” Was he worried about losing his salvation?
  2. Why is it a problem to go to multiple churches? I go to one particular church on Sunday but I also do Bible studies from other churches and occasionally visit others as well. I am also still involved with online groups from churches I have been a member of in the past. Aren’t we all one big family?
  3. Where in the Bible does it address transgenderism?
  4. Do Mormons worship the same Jesus as Christians?

There were years of singleness, and then miscarriage, when I felt invisible in the pew, wondering if I would ever wear the title of “mother” myself.
