🎙️ Welcome to The Bible Project Daily Podcast

Thanks for joining me on this journey through the Bible—chapter by chapter, verse by verse.

Each episode, we dig deep into Scripture, reflect theologically, and consider how God's Word speaks into our everyday lives. Whether you're listening on your commute, during a quiet moment, or while doing the dishes, I pray these reflections encourage and challenge you to follow Jesus more closely.

📖 Episode Title:

Don’t Argue Over Doubtful Things
Romans 14:1–13

✏️ Episode Summary:

In today’s episode, we reflect on the Apostle Paul's plea for unity in the church—even when Christians disagree on non-essential matters.

Whether it’s food, Sabbath observance, or other grey areas of conscience and conviction, Paul’s message is clear: don’t pass judgment or treat each other with contempt. We explore the difference between the strong and weak in faith, the danger of legalism, and why unity does not require uniformity.

At the heart of it all is a call to live unto the Lord—because every believer belongs to Him, not to us.

🧭 Key Themes:

• Christian liberty vs. personal conscience
• Unity over uniformity
• Judging others vs. receiving them in love
• The Lordship of Christ over every believer
• Living with conviction—unto the Lord

📚 Scripture References:

Romans 14:1–13
 (With supporting insights from 1 Corinthians 8 and 1 Timothy 4)

📌 Quote to Remember:

“Who are you to judge another man’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.”
 —Romans 14:4
