Ep 1377 | The Robertsons Confront the Church’s Uncomfortable Obsession with Wealth

The Robertson family may have stumbled onto a surprisingly simple secret to a long, healthy life, and Jase, Al, and Zach compare the routines that have kept generations of their family going strong. The guys also reflect on a military veteran who searched for truth in Islam before finding peace in Jesus, then turn to James 2 for a hard look at favoritism, wealth, and celebrity culture inside the church. They challenge every Christian to reflect on how they treat others, and dig into why even correct theology becomes empty noise when it is separated from the character of Jesus. In this episode: James 1:4; James 1:27; James 2:1–26; Deuteronomy 6; Exodus 20; Genesis 1:26–28; Genesis 9; Genesis 10–11; Joel 2:28; Acts 2:5–17; Acts 15; 1 Corinthians 1:26–31; John 5; Matthew 5–7 “Unashamed” Episode 1377 is sponsored by: https://homechef.com/unashamed — Get 50% off and free shipping on your first box plus free dessert for life! curehydration.com/unashamed — Get 20% off your first order with promo code UNASHAMED https://bravebooks.com/unashamed — Use code UNASHAMED for 20% off your order! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.
